The Queen of Christmas is back with a new single to get you even more into the spirit this coming holiday season. It will also be featured on her new Christmas special for Apple.

Interested in that list of songwriters. I wonder if it will be a solo song or collaboration with Kirk and/or Khalid (can't imagine how a Khalid Christmas song might sound...).

jenglisbe - not yet! ;) But Mariah has confirmed on her Twitter Spaces with the #lambily that there will be a new Christmas special for Apple, very different, more inclusive (that's how she phrased it) compared to last year's very successful special. She mentioned she was going to do "Where Are You Christmas" but ultimately changed her mind when she wrote a new "soulful Christmas song". I guess this must be it.

Does Kirk write alone, or has he written with either of the other two? I was wondering if there could be a sample or interpolation.

I'm hoping collaboration since it's for the Apple special. Khalid and Mariah together.... shitting myself with Christmas joy.

Khalid's beats sometimes remind me of Jermash lol
I hope this is a smooth R&B number.

Goaty Throat?! Hell, she DEFINITELY should work with Post Malone then, LOL. But, I did really like Khalid's last album, so I am perched.

I love the song title. Mariah's Christmas originals are generally really strong, so I'm looking forward to this!

I really, really love this title too.
I'm expecting this to be a mix of "Born Is The King" and "Fly Like A Bird" sonically lol.

Mariah is my girl but I’m tired of her trying to capture the success of AIWFC every few years with a new Christmas song. I wish she would put more focus into her studio albums as she does in AIWFC. Her pen is too ill for Christmas rehashes and Christmas songs. Also I want her to stop trying to become the queen of Christmas: her catalog is too vast and superior to be relegated to that.

Apparently it's coming in three weeks. Features Khalid. (MC liked his post on IG)

I mean, some signs point to that being about "FILAC," but it isn't 100 is it?
I don't necessarily see Khalid posting about a random co-write or whatever, so this makes me more confidence the song is a duet with Khalid and has a sample or something from a Kirk Franklin song.

It’s sounds like he’s talking about his song playing in the background, no?

I guess with the Mariah tshirt and then the suit, he is probably filming either a video or performance for the special.

She's been filming the special all week so it should be that. Look, he could be referring to his own music, but his Mariah t-shirt and Mariah liking that particular post on his IG led me to believe it's "Fall In Love At Christmas". Also, I guess the Kirk Franklin inclusion is due to a sample.

I hope it's just a sample, I have no desire to hear Kirk Franklin talking on a Mariah song.

Whatever the combination of possibilities it could be, a Kirk Franklin sample, a Khalid duet, just new music from Khalid, just Khalid in a Mariah t-shirt indicating he's a lamb, I'M ON BOARD FOR ALL OF IT.

Lol right? I never know what to make of random Mariah clues, announcements, etc and learned long ago not read too much into them lest my excitement get blindsided.

I don't want to even imagine what a Clark Sisters collaboration could sound like - I want to be fully unprepared.
