It's time! Mariah Carey's All I Want for Christmas Is You enters Top 40 for first time this year

The Queen of Christmas is Officially defrosted!

Santa, is that you? Mariah Carey fires the starting gun on the 2024 Christmas season on The Official Chart as All I Want For Christmas Is You re-entering the UK Top 40 today at Number 38. 

 

It's the first indication of who to keep an eye on as the biggest chart race of the year unfolds next month. Last year's Official Christmas Number 1, WHAM!'s Last Christmas trails Mariah slightly at Number 43. 

 

As the self-styled Queen of Christmas (of course, dahling!), Mariah is a festive chart staple, but has yet to reach the coveted Official Christmas Number 1 Single spot. In the battle for Christmas Number 1 last year, All I Want For Christmas Is You managed to hit Number 3, behind Last Christmas at Number 1 and Noah Kahan's Stick Season at Number 2.

 

Christmas Number 1 aside, All I Want For Christmas Is You has actually reached Number 1 on the Official Singles Chart on two separate occasions; for the first time ever in 2020, 26 years after its initial release for two weeks and then for a singular week in 2022.

 

Today's chart re-entry sets Mariah up as the artist to catch up to as we look forward to the festive chart season officially starting next month. WHAM! will of course be back in play, hoping to secure a second Official Christmas Number 1, while we had the news this week that Band Aid will be releasing a bumper megamix of Do They Know It's Christmas? to celebrate its 40th anniversary.

 

 

 

Tell your favs to take their seats. Mariah season hath come. :gayriahcat2:

 

I think we need a GayRiah Christmas cat to commemorate.
