I'm a bit surprised her first holiday album is outselling her second on iTunes (I did however expect "All I Want For Christmas Is You" to sell more than "Oh Santa!"). What's more surprising to me is just how high the first Christmas album is on Itunes. It's rare for an album that old to be so high on the Itunes chart. But you do also have to take into consideration that the album is on sale for $6.99 which is about as low as the price ever gets on Itunes for LPs. Right now Itunes has lots of older holiday titles on sale for $6.99-7.99. If the album were the regular Itunes price of $9.99, it would probably be lower than MCIIY.

i think MC is that high on itunes, because it's not so well stocked physically as MCIIY..

"All I Want for Christmas Is You" is an absolutely ubiquitous smash. It seems like the love it gets increases with each passing year (note: the nostalgia factor). It has to be one of the most universally liked songs in recent years with fans ranging from all walks of life (from young to old, from preppy to emo, etc)

Oh Santa is the #1 taking off and greatest gainer on AC! Are WKRZ, WYKS & WKSE sister stations? I thought it was more than coincidental that 3 top 40 stations played Oh Santa within minutes of each other. lol

It's a start. Honestly, if this can go top 50 I'll consider it a smash.

It seems that Sony prevented Mariah of showing some videos from the "MC" era on her upcoming Christmas special and she's totally pissed about it (judging by her tweets lol).

By checking Yes, most stations are playing Mariah's christmas songs from her previous christmas CD. I saw only two stations playing O'Santa. Most are playing All I Want For Christmas is You and other of her Christmas musicl.

I've actually been on there quite a bit today, and they've definitely been playing Oh Santa. Quite a few different formats, too. Not to the magnitude of AIWFCIY, but they've sure been playing it. It's definitely starting to pick up.

Watching her HSN, and she looks beautiful and she's promoting the hell out of a multitude of things. Lol It's pretty cool.

I think we should view Oh Santa's succes over the years. As far as I'm concerned this year is just the ground work, getting some airplay and getting people to know the song and then hopefully over the years it can continue to grow during Christmas.
