Mariah Carey notches a second consecutive No. 1 hit this 2023 with "All I Want For Christma is You" logging its fourteenth week atop since it was released in 1994.
According to Billboard, "All I Want For Christmas" has ruled over five holiday seasons. Starting in 2019, the song has charted atop with three weeks, two weeks in 2020, three weeks in 2021, four weeks in 2022, and two weeks to date in 2023.
Officially that brings the total weeks of the song to 14, which makes Carey the sole artist in music history to chart three different songs at least 14 weeks in the Billboard Hot 100 charts, the most for any artist.
Her longest-running song was "One Sweet Day" with Boyz II Men, reigning the charts for 16 weeks, as "We Belong Together" ran for 14 weeks in 2005.
Luminate reported that "All I Want For Christmas" earned 48.4 million streams this week, has been played on the radio for 31.7 million radio airplay impressions, and has sold 7,000 digitally.
It's currently No. 2 on the Streaming Songs Chart, No. 4 on the Digital Song Sales, and No. 17 on the Radio Songs Chart this week.
With the recent addition of one week on the Hot 100, Mariah Carey further widens the gap between her and Rihanna as the artist to stay at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 the most with 93 and the latter at 60.
