Hopefully this will finally hit #1 in the UK this year and a #1 on the Billboard Global 200 would be great too.

As gorgeous as Ellie Goulding's remake of Joni Mitchell's "River" is, Mariah should've been No.1 - That rule screwed Wham!'s (George Michael) "Last Christmas" over too!

What ended up happening with that? I remember Mariah was set to hit #1 but then they added some of her sales into some other single that charted seperately?

Where somehow AIWFCIY is split between #19 and whatever that is at #13....the UK charts never addressed it. It was definitely sabotage. Mariah had so much more points than Ellie and this was the only way to get her to stay at #2.

Mariah had so much more points than Ellie and this was the only way to get her to stay at #2. Yes, and the Official U.K. chart stuck to the idea that the ACR rule was the reason. "River" by Ellie could only be purchased through Amazon which was the most ridiculous bit of it all. Bloody bastards!

I mean, #1 is always nice, but AIWFCIY is the highest certified song of all time, by a female artist (4x Platinum). The people HAVE SPOKEN!

What is the highest certified holiday song in the U.S.? I assume "AIWFCIY" but maybe not. I'd imagine it's eligible for 7 or even 8 million now after the physical sales/downloads and of course its continued streaming.

So maybe it is Mariah? Of course Bing’s “White Christmas” is the highest selling song of all time.

There are of course many songs that we will never know their sales. Still, some songs would have surely sold on vinyl and such in the 50s and 60s. "Christmas (Don't Be Late)" hit #1 in the 60s but doesn't seem to have ever been certified. "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree" hasn't been certified either. Wow.
