Christmas songs making the charts
Guess what! Christmas came early this year, and the charts are proof. Forget waiting until December — the festive tunes made an early entrance this year, where they have been shaking up our playlists since mid-November. As a result, “All I Want for Christmas” by Mariah Carey and “Last Christmas” by Wham! have both landed on the UK Singles Chart.
Hold on to your Christmas hats, for Brenda Lee’s “Rocking Around the Christmas Tree” has also made a huge comeback 65 years later. The track recently became the first holiday song to top the Billboard Hot 100 this holiday season, surpassing even the great Mariah Carey.
As if that wasn’t enough holiday glee, the pop icon Cher has also graced us with her first-ever Christmas album, appropriately titled Christmas. With 13 Christmas songs in the track list, the album most certainly does not disappoint. The album’s first single, “DJ Play a Christmas Song,” not only gets us in the holiday spirit but has also topped not one, but two Billboard charts. The disco beats and upbeat feelings make it the ultimate dance-around-the-living-room anthem.
Don’t worry if you’re a Mariah Carey fan. The queen of Christmas is well on her way to recover her throne. “All I Want for Christmas Is You” has now reclaimed the top spot on the Billboard Global Charts. It’s looking like Mariah isn’t going to be relinquishing her reign as the undisputed queen of holiday music anytime soon!
