I think that rule only applies to songs that re-enter after their initial run. This would've debuted period. I don't have the article, but I think I read one posted here recently that said that doesn't apply to holiday songs. After their initial release year, they need to enter the Top 50 to debut as with any other recurrent (that may not apply if it's actively promoted in a year after its initial release but not sure). That’s my understanding, too, but it’s also irrelevant because “C(BPCH)” wasn’t close to the top 100 anyway.

Well, it was nowhere near the Hot 100. It needs a real video of some sort; its YT numbers are pretty bad. I wouldn't say pretty bad, but YT doesn't matter anyway. Its performance on Spotify + sales + airplay should've been enough for a debut. YT does matter. "OHN" has more of a traditional video (which is just a live performance video) and has been getting 300k more views a day than "C(BPCH)" even though the latter has higher downloads on Spotify and higher sales. That's over 1 million extra streams a week (at least) that "C(BPCH)" could be getting.

This is one of my favorites on Merry Christmas- I think I listen to it even more than "All I Want For Christmas Is You." I enjoyed her 2008 performance of this at the Grammy Nominations Concert (despite it being a difficult time for her), and I thought the clip of it I heard during her 2015 Beacon concert was even better.

One of those songs that instantly puts me in the Xmas mood. I love MC’s version so much, her vocals are insane.

iTunes: # 413 I have a feeling this will make its HOT100 debut this season. It’s doing so much better than last year so far.

I have a feeling this will make its HOT100 debut this season. It’s doing so much better than last year so far. It's extremely unlikely. Wouldn't it have to make the top 50 to enter the chart since it's so old? No way it gets that many chart points, unless something crazy happens.

By the way, this got certified Gold when Sony re-did her certifications a while back.
I don't see it charting on the Hot 100. There's too many versions of this song that radio plays and people stream. I like Mariah's version, but I also listen to Darlene Love's fantastic original and U2's.

There are a lot of versions, but Mariah's version is still one of the most popular. It's easily top 3, and in some weeks it's the highest charting version.

Darlene Love says Mariah’s and U2’s cover of her song are her favorite: "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)" has been covered by scores of artists since its release. Love says her favorites are Mariah Carey's because "hers is so much like the original...with her great voice," and U2's, "because it DOESN'T sound like 'Christmas (Baby)', and they had me do all three background vocals on it." www.billboard.com/articles/news/holiday/8545613/darlene-love-christmas-baby-please-come-home

CBPCH is easily my favourite Mariah Christmas cover. SO GOOD! I was only four years old when Merry Christmas dropped, so her version is THE definitive version for me. It really is a showcase of her amazing melisma, and like every other song on the album, her vocals absolutely soar.
