Despite 31 years after its release, Mariah Carey's Christmas hit "All I Want for Christmas Is You" continues to set records, topping the Billboard Hot 100 chart for the 19th time. The song, adapted to the era of streaming, regularly returns to the top during the Christmas holidays, and only a miracle can prevent its status as an absolute record holder. In 2019, the song became the 19th in Carey's career, with cumulative royalties from the Christmas standard reaching $100 million. The UK is also dominated by Christmas themes: "Last Christmas" Wham! "All I Want for Christmas Is You" tops the charts. In contrast, David Byrne has unveiled a Christmas playlist for those who don't like classic Christmas tunes, including tracks by Prince and Macy Gray, as well as Sabrina Carpenter and Byrne herself.
