Mariah Carey’s ‘All I Want for Christmas Is You’ sets new record with 20 weeks at No. 1
"All I Want for Christmas Is You" has now spent 20 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, breaking the previous record of 19 weeks, Billboard reported.
- On Dec. 15, 2025, Mariah Carey achieved 20 total weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 this year, Billboard reported the milestone.
- Billboard's 2019 chart update allowed recurrent songs to re-enter, and annual holiday streaming and sales surges have pushed the song back to No. 1 each season since.
- In industry terms, Carey’s holiday single has sold more than 50 million copies worldwide and is certified 18‑times platinum by the RIAA, surpassing recent leaders.
- Chart positions now reflect a holiday surge as eight of the top 10 songs on the Billboard Hot 100 are holiday tunes, and with Christmas still a week away, the song may continue setting records this year.
- Clocking its 77th week, the song ties Dua Lipa's "Levitating" as the longest-charting female hit, reinforcing Carey’s title as the `Queen of Christmas` and marking her second Hot 100 No. 1.
