• Trey Songz Covers Mariah's 'All I Want for Christmas' [LISTEN]

    It has been 20 years since Mariah Carey's iconic "All I Want for Christmas Is You" was released — can you believe it? — and the song still has not gotten old. It has been covered and remixed by everyone from Shania Twain to Michael Bublé to Lady Antebellum to the "Glee" cast. Now, R&B crooner Trey Songz is feeling festive and has decided to do an official cover for "All I Want for Christmas." Trey Songz keeps the original spirit of Mariah Carey and Walter Afanasieff's work, but adds his own upbeat feel to the track that will have fans snapping along to his catchy rework, via missinfo.tv. The cover is available for download on iTunes via Atlantic Recordings. He has been working primarily alongside his new partner in crime Chris Brown, but on this cover he flies solo to provide his fans with a jovial new Christmas cover for their holiday playlists.

  • David Bowie, Bing Crosby, Jimmy Fallon, The Pogues: 8 Best Holiday Duets [LISTEN]

    Duets are special. They tend to carve out little moments in time when two artists link up and compliment their talents to the delight of listeners.

  • Mariah Carey Sings 'All I Want for Christmas Is You' Live at Rockefeller Center; Twitter Unimpressed [WATCH]

    Mariah Carey showed up late for a taping of her 1994 hit "All I Want for Christmas Is You" last night, Dec. 3, for the "Christmas in Rockefeller Center" special. Reports claim that Carey was stuck in a meeting with divorce lawyers, which is why NBC executives decided to let the diva sing the tune live. She did not exactly kill the performance, though, and fans were quick to criticize Carey on Twitter. You can see in the video below that Carey is continuously fiddling with the listening devices in her ears, a classic sign that singers are not "hearing it right." Now, she is celebrating the 20th anniversary of the song, MTV News points out, so it is understandable to miss a few notes. She struggles a little bit with the beginning, but once the backup singers join in, everything is fine. This is not 1990s Carey, but this is not the '90s, either. Kudos to the singer for doing it live anyway. Haters gonna hate.

  • The Longest Streaks in Hot 100 History: Featuring Plenty of Boyz II Men, Mariah Carey and Black Eyed Peas

    On this date during 1994, Boyz II Men stuck around for a 14th week atop the Billboard Hot 100 with its hit "I'll Make Love To You." That tally left it in a tie with Whitney Houston and "I Will Always Love You" for the most weeks on top of the Hot 100. As album sales have grown less important to the industry and single sales have become more relevant, that record has since changed hands. Check out the Top 13 songs in terms of weeks at no. 1 (mind you, there are quite a few ties...we ranked ties according to age of the song, not by how much we personally enjoyed it).

  • Fifth Harmony Cover Mariah Carey's 'All I Want for Christmas Is You' [LISTEN]

    We are a little more than a week away from Thanksgiving, which means Christmas is in the air ... and has been for a few weeks now. Epic Records has put together an EP of holiday covers titled "I'll Be Home for Christmas" that includes Fiona Apple, Sara Bareilles and Ingrid Michaelson, among others. Female R&B group Fifth Harmony are on the EP, and they decided to take on Mariah Carey's 1994 classic "All I Want for Christmas Is You" while Meghan Trainor contributes an original titled "I'll Be Home." Fifth Harmony are reverent with their cover of the tune, which is a good choice since it has become a holiday favorite in the last two decades, MTV News reports. The women trade off verses, and the variety of vocals really adds something special to the song.
