Mimi Springs Eternal
Filed under: Music Minute > Mariah Carey > Josh Groban
Mariah Carey has a Top Ten single….without even trying!
Thanks to the fact that now digital downloads count towards chart success, Mimi's perennial favorite, All I Want for Christmas is #8 this week in America, according to Soundscan.
People must be really into the holiday season because Josh Groban's Noel is the #1 album in the country. Again. He sold 500,000+ records this past week, with no signs of slowing down.
Groban has already moved 2.1 million units in 2 months and is on his way to having the biggest-selling Christmas album of all time.
Sources tell us that after Josh's astounding success, Michael Buble will likely release a Christmas album next year. He was coerced into releasing a holiday EP a few years ago by his label, but now he probably wants to cash in like Groban!
Who knew Santa could be so profitable????
first??
second?
FIRST!!
Go Mariah!!! She wrote a classic!!! 13 years ago!!!! AMAZING!!! and she looks beautiful in that pic!!

I love that song from Mariah!!! I love the holiday season!!! I love Perez!!!
wow that song is about 10 years old, but i still love it!!!
I'm totally convinced people are so extremely over christmas on the 26th soley because of that song.
profit is why Santa exists in the first place…much like god.
Vieja ridícula. :/
last?
She is awful…Another example of how dumb Americans are…Mediocrity sells
hands down, Mariah's Christmas CD is the best holiday music ever…..
I love Josh Groban and his Christmas album. Michael Buble better do another one. His only has 6 songs on it for the price of a regular CD - and they're not even the best songs. I feel jipped lol. Make a new one Michael! As for Mariah, that song is classic. Love it.
this song is old fuck the music industry
IM THE BIGGEST MARIAH FAN EVER AND I WISH WISH WISH SHE WAS NO.8 IN THE AMERICA, BUT THIS IS ABSOLUTE BULLSHIT…. SHES NO. 8 IN THE UNITED KINGDOM AS DOWNLOADS COUNT THERE NOW, NOT THE UNITED STATES.
IF YOURE GONNA REPORT ON STUFF THEN AT LEAST GET IT RIGHT INSTEAD OF MAKING UP SHIT….THIS SITE HAS GONE DOWWWWWNHILL.
Re: bg – She IS terrible, but YOU'RE the tool. :]
i think she looks like sabrina brian in this pic…
Christmas songs are so cheesy ! Mariah is such a poseur ! Americans have no taste… and no brain !
Re: bg – Just keep posting comments on this dumb American's website. Every click makes this dumb American a little bit richer you genius foreigner. Cha-Ching!
Mariah's whole Christmas album is AMAZING!!!JAW DROPPING VOCALS, gorgeous harmonies, incredibly beautiful mood!
I think Mariah Carey has the BEST version of O' Holy Night EVER!! I can feel the meaning of the song when she sings it. It gives off the feeling that you could just fall to your knees in awe of this moment in history and Mariah's version can bring a tear to my eyes anytime of year I hear this song. Her Christmas CD is the BEST! IMO
Happy HOLY days everyone!!
Good for Mimi. I gotta admit…after all these years, I still love that corny song.
Too bad she can't sing nearly as well as she did 13 yrs ago.
Love Ya!
all i want for christmas by mimi is such a fuckin classic..it takes me back to the easier days..i will always enjoy this track..congrats mc!
This song is a classic it sounds straight out of Motown, and she wrote it herself wow!
And perez, I know u don't like Mimi but THANK YOU 4 giving credit where it is due!
Mariah carey is AMAZING….I love her and she is a very talanted writer/singer! Work it out Mariah!
Re: M. – So true.
LMAO, you dumbass, it's not in the US, it's in the UK.
i just think she is so pretty
GO JOSH!
He's incredible, and definitley NOT a cash-in.
His fans have been waiting years for a Christmas album, and he could've made several by now if he needed the money so bad.
But you see, when you have talent and ALL your albums sell well, then who needs shit-lickers like Britney Spears still walking around to take the O2 away from those who can sing?
You guys should really check out My Chemical Romance's cover on that song. (Of course, they did that waaaaay before The Black Parade made em famous.)
My Chemical Romance - All I Want for Christmas is You
Awesome cover. (Because it rocks out!)
4 a great xmas cd get> A JOHN WATERS CHRISTMAS also check out tracks by LOW, DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE, THE RAVENETTES, MARY J BLIGE, PSB & AIMEE MANN.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who knew Santa could be so profitable? Everyone, you fat fuck. Artists have been releasing xmas albums for 50 years. Oh, and I want to fuck Mariah Carey. That is all.
Mariah Carey's album "Merry Christmas" is the BEST Christmas cd out there. Mariah did a great job giving us all something nice to listen to while wrapping gifts.
Damn! I Love Mariah Carey. She rocks my socks!!!
That Santa hat is photoshopped on her head. No way would her hair fall so perfectly from under it. You can totally tell. And her dog has got to be 20 years old by now! She's a great singer, great performer, and great entertainer though.
Aww, this is the best X Mas song ever, I danced to it for 4 years in a row when I was doing my end of year concerts.
I loooooove this song and I love the version that little girl did on Love Actually too.
i LOVE HERRR!!!!!! she's soooo pretty!!!!
