LateToCult 23,374 Posted December 5, 2020 Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas is You” cannot be stopped. Already one of the most popular songs of all time, and the source of more than $60 million in royalties for Carey, the song appears to be more popular than ever in 2020. And it’s doing it against the odds—the top songs on Spotify are generally getting fewer listens than in previous years. From Nov. 24 to Nov. 30, “All I Want for Christmas is You” averaged about 1 million daily streams on Spotify in the US, up from just over 600,000 streams per day over the same time period in 2019, and 800,000 during that time in 2018. It was already the second most streamed song in the US on Nov. 30, but only the 10th on the same date in 2019. It’s not just ruling Spotify. Rolling Stone’s streaming data, which includes Spotify streams as well as competitor services like Apple Music, also show a big bump in listens to Carey’s hit this year. full story: https://www.google.com/amp/s/qz.com/1937682/all-i-want-for-christmas-is-you-is-streaming-more-than-ever/amp/ 16 Share Link to post Share on other sites Facebook Twitter

Wixson 3,795 Posted December 5, 2020 "...and the source of more than $60 million in royalties for Carey..." No wonder they keep pushing it further and further each Christmas season. Good for her, though. She deserves it. 4 Share Link to post Share on other sites Facebook Twitter
SlaeUrAnus 13,113 Posted December 5, 2020 Thing is, she is not just the "Queen of Christmas". To me, she is one of the 'Queens of music' in general. Her talent in unparalleled and she deserves every royalty and success. In a world where you could he anything, be kind. 23 Share Link to post Share on other sites Facebook Twitter

Hades 27,144 Posted December 5, 2020 I mean she can still outsing the majority of the music industry. Her catalogue is great. People shouldn't really use her only for 1 moth of the year when she released a great album (Caution) not too long ago. Congrats though! 1 2 Share Link to post Share on other sites Facebook Twitter
JusKeepBreathin 15,046 Posted December 5, 2020 (edited) She is also #1 on Amazon Music. She has turned into a streaming beast TBH. I can't wait to see if she gets to #1 on Apple Music.

Not even just pop music either she’s truly one of the trailblazers of the pop archetypes we know today, from r&b diva and the genre-blending crossovers to pop/rap collabs please enlighten me to death 1 1 Share Link to post Share on other sites Facebook Twitter

Kylie gained a lot of listeners thanks to DISCO for example. That's just my silly thought... Pretty sure she'll hit #1 again this year though so win win!
