Are the lyrics to Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You” stuck in your head? Same.
As soon as you hear the jingling of the bells and the iconic whistle tones of the pop star’s 1994 Christmas anthem, you know the most wonderful time of the year is officially here.
You may know every word to the chart-topping tune, but there are many interesting facts that you should know about “All I Want for Christmas Is You,” which became diamond certified by the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America) in 2021 — the first holiday song in recorded music history to do so!
The song was even inducted into the Library of Congress’ National Recording Registry in April 2023.
Decades after its debut, the Christmas queen’s hit single continues to break records.
