She's no longer the Queen of Christmas! Mariah Carey's iconic "All I Want for Christmas Is You" has been dethroned by another song.
Since 2019, on the eve of the holidays, the famous song “All I Want for Christmas is You” by the famous diva Mariah Carey (54 years old) reached the top of the charts in the United States of America. But it looks like the singer's song has been dethroned by another Christmas song this year.
Mariah Carey is no longer trending during the winter holidays. It seems that the song "Queen of Christmas" has been dethroned by another song. Ahead of the 2019 holidays, the diva topped the charts in the United States of America (USA) with the song “All I Want for Christmas is You,” but this year her place was taken by another Christmas song: “Rockin' About the Christmas Tree,” by Brenda Lee.
According to Billboard, the classic reached the top of the charts for the first time since its release in 1958. With this feat, "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree" set a number of records, starting with the record for the longest gap between a song's release and its charting at number one, previously held by "All I Want for Christmas Is You". .
Oldest female artist to appear on the Hot 100
Brenda Lee, now 78, was just 13 when she recorded the track with producer Owen Bradley. Moreover, the singer also won the title of the oldest artist to top the US charts. "MY GOD! I can't believe "Rockin' About The Christmas Tree" is at number one 65 years after it was released. The song came out when I was a teenager, and knowing that it resonates across generations today is one of the greatest gifts I could have received,” Brenda Lee said in a video posted to Billboard's X (formerly Twitter) account. .
In addition to "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree", the artist reached the top of the Billboard chart in 1960 thanks to the success of the songs "I'm Sorry" and "I Want To Be Wanted", News.ro reports.
Meanwhile, four more anthems return to the Hot 100's top 10: Bobby Helms' "Jingle Bell Rock," up from No. 12 to No. 4; "Last Christmas" by Wham! (13-5); "Holly's Merry Christmas" by Burl Ives (16-6); and Andy Williams' "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year" (28-10).
