Happy Holidays, One Song Nation. Today we're bringing back an episode about the modern Christmas classic.

You've probably heard it everywhere this season. That's right. We're talking about Mariah Carey's All I Want for Christmas is You. It's one of the best selling singles of all time.

It's the number one selling single of all time. If you can believe it. That's right, Tialo. In this episode, we're going to unwrap the sonic magic that made this song an instant

addition to the holiday music canon. That's right. And get ready because you're going to hear

Mariah's marvelous, isolated vocals in all the glory. Consider it our gift under your podcast tree.

Luxury today's song is one of the greatest and best-selling holiday songs of all time.

Of all time.

When it was released in 1994, it went all the way to number six in the U.S.

On the Billboard Hot Adult Contemporary Chart.

But listen, that's okay because it went all the way to number two in the UK in Japan.

All right, listen, music streaming has made this song incredibly popular, to the point

where it finally reached number one on the Billboard chart 25 years after its release,

as well as going number one in 30 other countries.

Now it's certified diamond.

That's right, Diallo.

This holiday jam continues to top

the charts during a very festive time of the year, whether you're out shopping or grabbing a coffee

or attending a dinner party. Or just living. If you're breathing and your ears are on, there's a

pretty good chance you'll hear this pop and fashion icon tell you that there's only one thing that she

needs.

It's one song, and that song is a little underground ditty you might have heard before.

Super niche.
