Mariah Carey: Will the star FINALLY get her UK Christmas number one after 26 years?

Wait, what? Mariah Carey never actually made it to the UK Christmas number one the first time round

 

In the year that Christmas came earlier than ever, with festive cheer providing some much-needed escapism from lockdown and tier rules, it seems only right that Mariah Carey gets her first festive number one in the UK.

 

Yes, you read that correctly: All I Want For Christmas Is You never actually made it to the top spot over here back when it was released in 1994.

 

In fairness, it lost out to what has become an undisputed British yuletide classic, East 17's Stay Another Day, but still - Mariah Carey, the Queen of Christmas, not topping the charts? Outrageous.

 

"I don't want a lot for Christmas," she belted out across many octaves 26 years ago, "there is just one thing I need..." Maybe that one thing is a UK Christmas number one - and it looks like 2020 could be the year that rectifies this travesty. It's got to be good for something, right?
