Yup, similar to the 2020 season overlapping into early 2021. Yeah but weren't only a couple weeks early 2021 while the rest were from November/December? Yes just two weeks.

If "AIWFCIY" falls in streams the same 30% Merry Christmas did, it would have over 33 million streams and have a real chance at #1.

One of the predictions has Adele and MC very close, with only 4 points apart. I think it’s super exciting no matter where it ends. Competing for the top spot with just a couple of days is incredible in and of itself.

So, totals for the 2021 holiday season: Streams - 207.5 million Sales - 39,600 Impressions - 146 million (The SPS is worth 1.423 million, though that includes programmed streams so it's not exact.)

The good news is that was week 51 for it on the Hot 100, so next year it can return to the Hot 100 below the top 25 as it won't be subject to that recurrent rule.

Mariah Carey’s ‘All I Want For Christmas Is You’ Continues at No. 1 on Billboard Hot 100Carey's carol reigns for an eighth total week, reflecting the Dec. 24-30 tracking frame. Even with the latest data tracking week encompassing five days after Christmas (Dec. 24-30), Mariah Carey‘s “All I Want For Christmas Is You” holds at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart. The song, released in 1994, logs its eighth total week atop the Hot 100, after notching three weeks at No. 1 beginning in December 2019, two more starting in December 2020 and now three this holiday season, beginning two weeks ago. Here’s a deeper look as Carey’s “Christmas” continues atop the Hot 100 (even after Santa has returned to the North Pole). Streams, airplay & sales: Carey’s “Christmas,” on Columbia Records/Legacy Recordings, drew 35.4 million U.S. streams (down 25%) and 16.5 million radio airplay audience impressions (down 49%) and sold 4,900 downloads (down 39%) in the Dec. 24-30 tracking week, according to MRC Data. The carol claims a 15th total week at No. 1 on the Streaming Songs chart (the third-best sum in the list’s history) and drops 6-11 on Digital Song Sales and 13-40 on Radio Songs. Unsurprisingly, holiday songs logged the bulk of their activity over the first two days of the Dec. 24-30 tracking week, with totals plunging the following five days. Still, that robust activity in those two days was enough to result in six seasonal songs in the Hot 100’s top 10, as well as 18 in the Streaming Songs chart’s top 19 positions. “Christmas” was first released on Carey’s album Merry Christmas in 1994 and its success on the Hot 100 has snowballed in recent years as streaming has grown and holiday music has become more prominent on streaming services’ seasonal playlists. Longest span atop the Hot 100: Carey’s “Christmas” extends its mark for the longest span from a song’s first week at No. 1 on the Hot 100 to its latest: two years and 18 days (Dec. 21, 2019-Jan. 8, 2022). Plus, the latest week atop the Hot 100 for “Christmas” extends Carey’s record for the longest span of an artist ranking at No. 1 on the chart: 31 years, five months and a week, dating to her first week at No. 1 on the chart dated Aug. 4, 1990, with her debut single “Vision of Love.” Carey’s record 87th week atop Hot 100: With “Christmas,” Carey claims her record-extending 87th week at No. 1 on the Hot 100, dating to the chart’s Aug. 4, 1958, inception. Most Weeks at No. 1 on Hot 100 87, Mariah Carey 60, Rihanna 59, The Beatles 52, Drake 50, Boyz II Men “Christmas” became Carey’s 19th Hot 100 No. 1, the most among soloists and one away from The Beatles’ overall record 20. It also made Carey the only artist that has ranked at No. 1 on the chart in four distinct decades. Fifth for eight: Carey claims her fifth Hot 100 No. 1 to rule for eight weeks or more, tying her with Drake for the most such leaders. She matches the mark thanks to “One Sweet Day,” with Boyz II Men (16 weeks, 1995-96); “We Belong Together” (14, 2005); “Christmas” (eight, 2019-22); “Fantasy” (eight, 1995); and “Dreamlover” (eight, 1993). Beyoncé and Boyz II Men follow with three such No. 1s each. Most weeks at No. 1 for a holiday hit: Plus, with its eighth week atop the Hot 100, Carey’s “Christmas” extends its record for the most time at No. 1 among holiday songs. It has doubled the reign of the only other seasonal single to lead the list: “The Chipmunk Song” by David Seville & the Chipmunks spent four weeks on top beginning in December 1958. Carey’s “Christmas” also leads the multi-metric Holiday 100 chart for a 51st week, of the survey’s 56 total weeks since the ranking began in 2011; it has topped the tally for 36 consecutive weeks, dating to the start of the 2015-16 holiday season. It also dominates as the top title on the recently-revealed Greatest of All Time Holiday 100 Songs retrospective. (This week marks the final Holiday 100 chart this season.) Billboard

Mariah's #1s stay at #1 for an average of 4.6 weeks each. She has hits.

Are you saying that later this year, it could chart earlier than previous, at say, #94, for instance? No. The new recurrent rule is that once a song has 52 weeks on the chart, it falls off once it gets below #25. We are thus assuming that once a song has 52 weeks, it won't be able to re-enter the charts until its #25 or higher (that would parallel "AIWCIY" currently not being able to re-enter until it's top 50 because it's subject to the 20 week recurrent rule). Since it seemingly won't be on the Hot 100 next week, it's 52nd week on the chart will be when it re-enters next holiday season. Therefore it can re-enter if it's #50 or higher.

Once it hits 52 weeks, it won't be able to re-enter below #25. I don't see what the big deal is if it hits 52 weeks now or later this year. Doesn't make a difference in my opinion... and even as far as overall impact, it will likely lose 1 week on the Hot 100 each holiday season once it hits 52 weeks but the focus is all on it hitting #1 each year and the recurrent rule shouldn't impact that.

Yeah, to me it isn’t really a big deal.
It just shortens its HOT100 entries, but it doesn’t affect its potential to reach #1 like it’s been doing.

So happy this squeezed another week at #1.
One of these days I'm sure the song will lose its luster/impact. But if and until that day comes..... WOO HOO!!

I don't see what the big deal is if it hits 52 weeks now or later this year. I don't think anyone said it was a "big deal." I simply made the observation that it can re-enter at 26-50 next year, and then someone had a question about recurrency rules. None of that suggests "big deal."

I can’t wait for when it hits two full years at #1 lol Even cooler is she needs 12 more weeks at number one to reclaim the OTR record, and 13 more weeks to hit 100 weeks total. Hopefully she hits both thresholds in 2026 during the same season!

Lol if Rocking Around the Christmas Tree is any indication, AIWFCIY has a LOONG road ahead. I think Christmas music has a nostalgia factor and an added benefit that its a tradition. It still feels like a “new” song and the next generation are growing memories with it as we speak.

Hopefully she hits both thresholds in 2026 during the same season! So many possibilities to hit some major records… 1. Regain the record of longest #1 song 2. Hit 100 weeks at #1 (and eventually 104 weeks or 2 years!) 3. Have a #1 hit every year in decade (again!!!) *she’s still the only artist to do this (90’s). 4. Song of the Decade (her 3rd!!!) *only artist with two right now 5. AIWFCIY becoming the GOAT HOT100 song

Lol Brenda may end up as the song with most weeks at #2 when all is said and done. With a song that old, who even owns the rights to it? Would the label benefit from pushing promo and stealing a week at #1 in the future. It just seems like they do nothing with it.
