I know it hurts but you’ll be okay Mariahs numbers are also driven by the curated playlists. Stop being delusional. 1 2

I guess people must be playing those December "curated playlists" earlier this year. ( and last) Interestingly Mariah has been added to a few more huge playlists.

Hence why Mariah heavily leads before then and continues to on every other platform. It’s not rocket science.

OnlyManInTheWorld Posted November 20, 2023 Posted November 20, 2023 So basically Brenda has a better playlisting in the US? That’s what you’re trying to say? Why though? Isn’t AIWFCIY like the biggest classic? Brenda’s lead surprises me each year

That’s what you’re trying to say? Why though? Isn’t AIWFCIY like the biggest classic? Brenda’s lead surprises me each year She is the top song on two very popular, curated Classic Christmas playlists that Mariah isn’t on (because her song is relatively newer). People and stores start playing those playlists more frequently closer to Xmas and it helps Brenda take over around this time - that’s why she still lags behind by a big margin on every other streaming platform.

Mariah is now a full 80 k streams behind on Spotify a full 5 weeks before Christmas despite having twice the reach of Brenda.

Mariah’s song is much bigger globally and those playlists reflect the massive amount of user-created playlists WW. Brenda receives an advantage from the most popular Spotify-created Xmas playlists. But I’d love to know your thoughts on why Brenda has only ever led on US Spotify and always as a slow burn takeover!
