The only holiday song to break the top 5 on the list was "All I Want", which earned the number 3 spot on Saturday.
Since its 1994 release, "All I Want" has passed 10,000,000 sales and 1 billion streams, making it the first holiday song in history to earn diamond status from the Recording Industry Association of America.
The song hit the number one spot on the Hot 100 for the first time in the year of its release and went on to top the list of the 100 greatest holiday songs of all time.
A Charlie Brown Christmas, which was accompanied by a TV special, was the greatest holiday album of all time.
Charlie Brown was the 10th most popular album on the chart.

In 2007, it was included in the gramophone hall of fame, and in 2016 it was certified quadruple platinum, selling over 4 million copies.

Carey released a song called "All I Want" as part of her Merry Christmas album. She wrote the song quickly after watching it. Charlie Brown was recorded in three hours. Charlie Brown first aired on CBS, and the executives were initially displeased with the special because of its anti-consumer theme and jazz soundtrack. The song "Linus and Lucy" became synonymous with the Peanuts gang, and the soundtrack and special became classics.
Surprising fact.

A Charlie Brown Christmas was Carey's favorite holiday movie.

There is a structure called the Tangent.

Apple purchased the rights to the Peanuts specials last year, and fans of the show were concerned. A Charlie Brown Christmas, The Great Pumpkin and A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving were going to be available on Apple TV+ instead of on TV. The special will be ad-free on PBS this year, after the streaming service announced it would be doing the same.
The first holiday single to be certified diamond is 'All I Want For Christmas Is You' by Carey.

This is the second year in a row that Carey's "All I Want For Christmas Is You" makes history.
