All I Want for Christmas Is You

Following the success of her 1993 album Music Box, Carey and her management at Columbia Records—including Carey's then-husband, Tommy Mottola, head of Columbia's parent label Sony Music Entertainment—began planning further projects. The group discussed recording a Christmas album, but hesitated, as such albums were typically released when artists' careers are waning. Carey's songwriting partner of over four years, Walter Afanasieff, said in 2015: "Back then, you didn't have a lot of artists with Christmas albums. It wasn't a known science at all back then, and there was nobody who did new, big Christmas songs. So we were going to release it as kind of an everyday, 'Hey, you know, we're putting out a Christmas album. No big deal.'" When recording "All I Want for Christmas Is You" that August, Carey had Christmas decorations set up in the studio. She later called this "an amazing recording session, like no other". Initially, Afanasieff admitted that he was puzzled and "blanched" as to where Carey wanted to take the melody and vocal scales, though she was "adamant" in her direction for the song. Afanasieff flew back to California, where he finished the song's programming and production. Originally, he had a live band play the drums and other instruments with the thought of giving it a more raw and affective sound. He was unhappy with the results of the recording and subsequently scrapped the effort and used his original, personal arrangement and programmed all the instruments heard on the song (with the exception of the background vocals) including the piano, effects, drums and triangle. While Carey continued writing material in her rented home in The Hamptons, Afanasieff completed the song's programming and awaited to rendezvous with her a final time in order to layer and harmonize the background vocals. == Composition ==

"All I Want for Christmas Is You" is an uptempo song, composed with pop, soul, R&B, gospel, dance-pop and adult contemporary influences and stylings. By early August, Carey already had two original songs written alongside Afanasieff including the "sad and ballad-y" "Miss You Most (At Christmas Time)" and the "Gospel-tinged and religious" "Jesus Born on This Day". The third and final original song the pair planned to write was to be centered and inspired and in the vein of a "Phil Spector, old rock 'n roll, sixties-sounding Christmas song". Critics have noted the song's 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s influences which, in conjunction with Carey's voice and its simple melody, heralded its recipe for success. In discussing the song's chord progression and stylistic approaches, ''Slate's Ragusea hailed the song as "the only Christmas song written in the last half-century worthy of inclusion in the Great American Songbook." The A.V. Club''s Annie Zaleski attributes the song's enduring appeal to its ambiguity in being able to pin it down as belonging to a specific era. == Reception ==

"All I Want for Christmas Is You" received widespread acclaim. Roch Parisien from AllMusic called the song "a year-long banger", complimenting its instrumentation and melody. In his review for Carey's Merry Christmas II You, Thomas Connor from the Chicago Sun-Times called the song "a simple, well-crafted chestnut and one of the last great additions to the Christmas pop canon". Shona Craven of Scotland's The Herald said, "[it's] a song of optimism and joy that maybe, just maybe, hints at the real meaning of Christmas." Additionally, she felt the main reason it was so successful is the subject "you" in the lyrics, explaining, "Perhaps what makes the song such a huge hit is the fact that it's for absolutely everyone." Craven opened her review with a bold statement: "Bing Crosby may well be turning in his grave, but no child of the 1980s will be surprised to see Mariah Carey's sublime All I Want For Christmas Is You bounding up the charts after being named the nation's top festive song." Kyle Anderson from MTV labeled the track "a majestic anthem full of chimes, sleigh bells, doo-wop flourishes, sweeping strings and one of the most dynamic and clean vocal performances of Carey's career". Music & Media commented, "Phil Spector's Christmas album has been the main inspiration for this carol in a "Darlene Love against the wall of sound" tradition." Music Week wrote, "Mariah meets Phil Spector, some chimes and the inevitable sleigh-bells; this is everything you would expect from a Mariah Carey record." In a 2006 retrospective look at Carey's career, Sasha Frere-Jones of The New Yorker said, the "charming" song was one of Carey's biggest accomplishments, calling it "one of the few worthy modern additions to the holiday canon". Dan Hancox, editor of The National, quoted and agreed with Jones's statement, calling the song "perfection". According to Barry Schwartz from Stylus Magazine, "to say this song is an instant classic somehow doesn't capture its amazingicity; it's a modern standard: joyous, exhilarating, loud, with even a hint of longing." Schwartz also praised the song's lyrics, describing them as "beautifully phrased", and calling Carey's voice "gorgeous" and "sincere". The song's ubiquitousness during the festive season also has its criticisms. Retail workers have expressed their disdain for it due to frequent airplay at their job, with a poll by customer feedback company HappyOrNot naming the song as being the most unpopular amongst American retail staff. In 2022, three separate Change.org petitions appeared calling for "All I Want for Christmas Is You" to be banned from stores and radio stations. Similarly, a 2019 poll by Huawei found the song was the one that British festive shoppers found "the most annoying". == Chart performance ==

When the song was first released as a single in 1994, no remixes were commissioned. Carey re-released the song commercially in Japan in 2000, with a new remix known as the So So Def remix. Instead, the video is animated and based on a scene in the video from Carey's "Heartbreaker" (1999). It features cartoon cameo appearances by Carey, Jermaine Dupri, Bow Wow, Luis Miguel (Carey's boyfriend at the time), Carey's dog Jack, and Santa Claus. In 2009 and 2010, the song was included in a music video accompanying ESPN's (and their sister station, ABC) Christmas Day coverage of the National Basketball Association (NBA). In 2009, a remix produced by Carey and Low Sunday, called "Mariah's New Dance Mix", was released. The mix laid the original 1994 vocals over new electronic instrumentation. The remix garnered a positive response. MTV's Kyle Anderson wrote that "it's difficult to improve perfection," but that the remix "does dress up the song in a disco thump that should make your office Christmas party 28 percent funkier than it was last year." Steven J. Horowitz from Rap-Up wrote that the new version "sound[ed] just as enjoyable as it did in 1994." While the song was praised, it drew criticism for being too similar to the original. Thomas Connor from the Chicago Sun-Times wrote that the new version "just seems to add a few brassy backup singers to exactly the same arrangement." Dan Hancox, editor of The National, also felt the new version was unnecessary. == Live performances ==

The first, primary video for the song was shot in the style of a home movie using Super 8 film; it was directed and filmed by Carey during the Christmas season of 1993. The video begins with Carey decorating a Christmas tree with holiday ornaments and frolicking through a snowy mountainside. Outdoor scenes were shot at the Fairy Tale Forest in New Jersey, where Carey's then-husband Tommy Mottola made a cameo appearance as Santa Claus. The second, directed by Joseph Kahn, was a "revamped" version titled "Make My Wish Come True Edition", with new scenes of Carey in 2019. In this video, Carey, now 50, is seen lip-syncing to her 25-year-old voice from 1994. A montage of celebrities lip-syncing the song was also released on Carey's Vevo channel that same year. Some celebrities featured in the video include Ryan Reynolds, Kim Kardashian, and James Corden. == Lawsuit ==

On June 3, 2022, songwriter Andy Stone from Vince Vance & the Valiants filed a copyright lawsuit against Carey, alleging that she "exploited" and made "undeserved profits" off his song, "All I Want for Christmas Is You", which was written five years prior to Carey's version. Despite sharing the same title, the two songs were musically different. On November 2, 2022, Stone dropped his lawsuit, but in November 2023, the lawsuit was refiled. The case was moved to California from Louisiana. In March 2025, Carey won the lawsuit in Los Angeles. Andy Stone and Troy Powers were ordered to pay part of Carey's attorneys' fees, as some of their filings contained a "litany of irrelevant and unsupported factual assertions." == Legacy ==

She is standing on a large red stage, surrounded by dancers in Santa Claus outfit and generally festive attire. Due to the song's lasting impact, Carey has been dubbed the "Queen of Christmas". Carey has taken advantage of the song's popularity and her honorific title by posting a video every year since 2019, around midnight Eastern time on November 1, saying when it is officially time to play the song. As of 2023, the Associated Press estimates the song's royalty earnings at $100 million, and The Economist estimating that Carey personally makes $2.5 million per year from this song alone. The song has been described as a "yuletide tune" by Forbes, who went on to say that the song has "become debatably the unofficial song of Christmas each year". Los Angeles Times writer Jody Rosen noted that the song's success reflects "the zeal of Carey's super-fans" and "speaks to the character of the song itself: its timeless quality, the way it seems to hover between musical eras and idioms. The song's harmonic palate, its diminished chords and lustrous chromatic passages, call to mind the jazz-inflected Christmas hits of the midcentury [...] Carey's calisthenic vocals, combining gospel-style melismatic runs and subtly funky syncopations, are unmistakably 90s, redolent of hip-hop-influenced R&B that Carey herself helped pioneer." Rosen went on to call it the 21st century's "White Christmas" calling Carey "another hall of fame vocalist and showbiz giant who was indelibly associated with the holiday". He went on to say that "the very first time you [hear the song, it sounds] classic [...] timeless, like it was playing in the manger when Jesus Christ was born." The song is popular among radio stations that switch formats to all-Christmas to use as a "kickoff song" to launch the seasonal format, amplified in part due to Carey's annual November 1 videos. Of a sample of 20 stations that changed to the format before Veterans Day in 2024, five chose the song, tied with "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year." Radio writer Sean Ross in 2020, and former program director Rob Lucas (who programmed all-Christmas Star 102.5 from 2001 to 2022) in 2023, both noted that the popularity of the song, and its similarity to the arrangements on the seminal Christmas album A Christmas Gift for You from Phil Spector, had essentially established the Wall of Sound-type stylings as a fixture of contemporary Christmas music. Ross suggested that the vast majority of new Christmas records that were breaking through now had a sound reminiscent of Carey or Spector, making programming the format to avoid over-repetition more difficult. Achievements On December 25, 2018, the song set the single-day record for the most Spotify streams, with 10.82 million plays. As of December 2019, the song has earned more than $2 million in royalties since it was first added to Spotify. On November 24, 2019, the song won three records in Guinness World Records for one of the best-selling and most recognizable Christmas songs, most streamed song on Spotify in 24 hours (female) (10,819,009 streams in December 2018) and most weeks in the UK singles Top 10 chart for a Christmas song (20) titles. In 2022, "the song broke for a fourth time the all-time record for the most streamed song in a single day on Spotify with 21.2 million global streams, a record previously held by Adele's "Easy on Me", becoming the first song to be streamed over 20 million times in 24 hours. In 2010, The Daily Telegraph named "All I Want for Christmas Is You" the most popular and most played Christmas song of the decade in the United Kingdom. Rolling Stone ranked it fourth on its Greatest Rock and Roll Christmas Songs list, calling it a "holiday standard". In a UK-wide poll in December 2012, it was voted fifth on the ITV television special ''The Nation's Favourite Christmas Song. In 2018, The Washington Post ranked the song sixth on its ranking of 100 best Christmas songs. In 2019, The Guardian writer Michael Hann ranked the song number 1 on his list of the 50 greatest Christmas songs, calling it a "rare modern Christmas song that has become a standard." In November 2021, Billboard'' named "All I Want for Christmas Is You" the Greatest Holiday Song of All Time. Adaptations Carey released a children's book based on "All I Want for Christmas Is You" on November 10, 2015, which went on to sell over 750,000 copies. She released an animated family film titled ''Mariah Carey's All I Want for Christmas Is You, based upon the book and song, on November 14, 2017. Lacey Chabert, Henry Winkler and Breanna Yde were attached to the film. Carey was the executive producer of the film alongside Stella Bulochnikov for Magic Carpet Productions, in partnership with producer Mike Young and Splash Entertainment. In 2018, Judy Greer, Saara Chaudry, Jaiden Canatelli and Shayle Simons covered the song for the PBS Christmas special of Let's Go Luna!'' == Track listings ==
