Mariah Carey To Record Christmas Song…With Her Mom
Filed under: Music Minute > Mariah Carey
Who DOESN'T love Mariah Carey's All I Want For Christmas Is You?
Mariah says of her 1994 hit and her Christmas album:
"When I realize how that song has become a part of Christmas tradition, it’s crazy to me, thrilling, humbling. You know, I didn’t want to do a Christmas album. It was Tommy [Mottola]’s idea. And I was all, ‘Please I’m a young girl. People don’t do Christmas albums until they are, like, 50. Some sort of last resort.’ But he insisted. ‘No, no. Do it. It’ll be a big hit. So I did and it was, and I’ll always be grateful for that."
And the singer reveals she plans to do a new Christmas recording with her mother, Patricia Carey, a vocal coach and former opera singer!
But is this some sort of "last resort" for Mimoo after lackluster sales of her latest album?
Either way, we hope it's a hit! We loves some good Christmas music!

…hope it doesn't come on the radio. My glass Christmas angel may shatter.
WOHOOOO!
I'm also looking forward to that CD with Timbaland-Tracks she's releasing. Must be so much better than MOAIA
don't really care for Mariah that much but that version she recorded is one of my fave Christmas songs
All she wants for Xmas is Eminims cock in her fat ass!!
how cool! i love her christmas song the best of all
Her first christmas CD was great….I'm a bit worried that this one might be kind of like Whitney Houstons new CD. You go out, buy it, then when you listen to it you're thinking "Crap, thought I was getting a Whitney CD, and this is some bowling alley waitress trying to sound like Whitney."
AWESOME NEWS!
Mariahs album "Merry Christmas" is THE BEST XMAS ALBUM E-V-E-R.
Mariahs "All I want for Xmas is You" is an Xmas classic worldwide so Im looking forward to this.
Another sweet Xmas song from Mariah, YAY!!!
YES! When I heard this a couple days ago I was excited. Now I don't know if I am more excited over the new Christmas recording or the remixes of the newest album "Memoirs of an imperfect Angel".
I would love to hear her sing with her mom who has never sung with her in public or on record. She was an opera singer. Hope its true.
you see mimi even though you ain't wiTh tommy anymore you should
always heed his advice…You are very talented, you can sing , act
you pretty…
but you are soooo tacky and classless less you say and more you wear
people will look at you seriously…
sounds very sweet, cute, hopefully it'll be pretty popular and not a flop!
Re: xman66 –
you are right man , and I think if MC would just tone it down better
Her album, despite "poor" sales is pretty good.
Well, we'll see.
Mariah is da best!! i cant wait to hear the song.. :]
well your not young now mariah so sing those christmas tunes
All I want for Christmas best song ever! Loves it
Memoirs… is fantastic, dont listen if you dont like it dickheads!!
All this anger an bullshit toward Mariah on Perez Hilton makes me sick. Thank God she has us real fans and she's the #1 diva and doesn't need you losers approval to keep making great music and breaking records! Suck it HATERS!! Mariah is the best and you KNOW it!!
ughhh…please dont. christmas music is the most annoying thing in the world.
Re: cindyloohoo1 – "that version"? It's her original song that she wrote and composed. One of the best Christmas songs of all time.
Re: Amanda Says – Sorry is 15 years between making Christmas songs too short for you?
I wonder what her mom's singing sounds like, it should be really touching for them to sing a Christmas song together
