MC Christmas (114,596) by nancy from Switzerland What I saw on her Facebook page, that there is critique of her not singing live, lethargy etc. When someone writes the truth on her side, her management immediately puts another post to overshadow the truth. They not even accept constructive critique. It's too expensive for a non live show. Not even the playback is done correctly anymore because she is so distracted. There are so many videos on YouTube that prove everything. She doesn't move. The only fast move she does is after the shows when she goes to the Dior, LV store in Aspen to spend the money that her fans earned hardly hoping to get an outstanding experience. And you get absolutely nothing. At least her background singers are professional and motivated. (Friday 25 September 2026; 22:14)

23 Weeks (114,595) by Terna from Nigeria Lol, why get worked up? Remember Mariah's AIWFCIY will definitely snatch back that title this very Christmas - a gift that will keep giving long after she's gone (that in itself is such a flex). At this point now I'm over all that chart watching, placement etc. I just enjoy the music and the fact Mariah is still here and still making music just for the love of it, after what that demonic industry has put her through. Just enjoy her accomplishments and vast, satisfying body of work. PS: Just think of it, by the time Mariah accumulates 50+ weeks at #1 with "All I want for Christmas is you", nobody will be able to match, talk less of breaking that record because let's face it, no song is staying at number for a whole year, it's just not happening. Haha. This woman is so blessed. They try so hard to erase her, but she keeps coming back and proving them wrong and we love to see it.

23 Weeks (114,593) by Edward from USA Remember when debuting at #1 on the Hot 100 actually felt like a huge accomplishment? Now Ariana has done it eight times. "One Sweet Day" held the record for 23 years, 4 months and 13 days. It took Mariah 6 years and 5 months to reclaim it, and now, just 8 months and 19 days later, it's broken again. I don't know if you see the trend here. I wouldn't have minded if "Despacito", a worldwide phenomenon, or "A Bar Song (Tipsy)", which was absolutely everywhere in the US, had taken the record. But "Old Town Road" and "Choosin' Texas"? Nah. Sorry. I've always followed the charts, but this is getting so frustrating that I'm probably going to stop paying so much attention. At this point, some of it just doesn't make sense to me anymore. (Friday 25 September 2026; 15:13)

23 Weeks (114,594) by TJ from Norway Today's number ones don't count. It's rubbish. Todays sales numbers don't count either. Periode. (Friday 25 September 2026; 18:24) this is a reply to message 114,593

23 Weeks (114,590) by TJ from Norway What's funny is that it seems like no one have heard of her, she has less monthly listeners on Spotify than Mariah and still does this. It's like Taylor Swift. The same amount of listeners as Lady Gaga, but everything she touches turns into gold. (Friday 25 September 2026; 07:38)

Mariah Christmas in the UK (114,592) by Lee from UK I was so close to buying tickets for me and my partner to the Manchester show but I hovered over the "Get These Tickets" button for too long. My sensible brain kicked in and said "Are you really going to spend all of this money to watch Mariah give nothing on stage and lipsync like a mime to pre-recorded vocals?" I then closed my browser and went back to work. I feel sad about it but after paying to see her in Sandringham and feeling disappointed, I do not want to be duped again.

23 Weeks (114,591) by Lainsky from Philippines Oh dear, this is sad, really sad. While I have doubts, let's hope AIWFCIY still has its magic to break its own record. (Friday 25 September 2026; 09:12) this is a reply to message 114,587

23 Weeks (114,587) by Edward from USA I'm a little bitter about "Choosin' Texas" taking over AIWFCIY's 22-week record. The frustrating part is that the song closest to overtaking it is still pretty far behind in overall points, so "Choosin' Texas" could possibly rack up another two or three weeks at #1. If that happens, even if "AIWFCIY" manages to score four more weeks at #1, it would only match it or beat it by one week. And that's assuming "AIWFCIY" doesn't start deflating by then.

23 Weeks / Christmas (114,584) by Belinda Vasquez from USA In response to "You can't expect for her to always be super cheerful like those [censored] singers who just smile all the time, on and off stage." - If I am paying tickets with my hard earned money, it is completely acceptable for me to want to see a good performance. So yes, I do accept some degree of that. Would you spend your hard earned money on a brand new car that has scratches because it shows that the car is resilient? LMAO I don't expect somebody to have a smile on for the duration of the entire performance, but I absolutely expect some effort. Do not attempt to tell me or anybody else spending their money that we aren't allowed to have expectations. (Thursday 24 September 2026; 17:11)

23 Weeks / Christmas (114,583) by Zachariah from Croatia We don't know what or how will be this year. Maybe she just needed time to heal and she will be happier this year. You can't expect for her to always be super cheerful like those [censored] singers who just smile all the time, on and off stage. We all have our stages when you love people and days when you want to run over everyone while behind the wheel. Let's focus on Glitter celebration and upcoming Christmas time.

23 Weeks / Christmas (114,578) by BFF from US I don't really mind Mariah's legacy being Christmas, but the sense of desperation and lack of joy are what really bothers me. There was such a huge shift between her performances in 2019/20 and when she started up again in 2022. She seemed genuinely energized during the Caution Tour in 2019, The Butterfly Returns residency from 2018-20, and the holiday shows during those years. It felt like she was recovering from those awful 2014-17 Stella years and getting back on track. But now she's lip syncing nearly the entire show and has this pained/detached look on her face so much of the time. She just really seems unhappy, and things appeared this way even before her mom and sister died. I would rather that she not perform at all if it makes her miserable.

Article: Mariah Carey's "All My Life" remixed By Channel Tres (114,582) by Lainsky from Philippines It's nice. Without a doubt, Mariah is the queen of remixes, not just Christmas, if I may add. Lol. However, I still prefer the OG version on the album. It should have been a single back then. (Thursday 24 September 2026; 05:58)

23 Weeks / Christmas (114,581) by Lainsky from Philippines Same sentiments here. I hate it when people recognize Mariah only during Christmas. It sucks, but oh well, I guess we just have to accept it and choose to enjoy what she's putting out there for support. At least we can still get to enjoy her entire discography. Her music and everything that goes around it is her legacy. We are her lambs, aren't we? Merry Christmas. (Thursday 24 September 2026; 05:44) this is a reply to message 114,574

23 Weeks / Christmas (114,574) by Randy from USA This Choosin Texas song ain't it. I love country music but I've heard better. It's interesting how it took a long time for songs to break the 13 week record set by Elvis. Then MC came with the 16 week record. Took awhile for Despacito to come along and tie it but now it seems like every few years we have another contender reaching the near 20 week mark. In a time of low attention spans, I don't think Billboard is calculating the most popular song in the country anymore. I'd never heard of the song until last week. I made myself listen to it. I'm not bitter about MC's record being broken. She broke others' records. I am more upset of the quality of music staying number one for 5 months. Whatever. Oh and about Christmas. I warned y'all this (MCs legacy being Christmas) would happen in 2019 and y'all said I was being dramatic. (Wednesday 23 September 2026; 13:46)

23 Weeks / Christmas (114,579) by Bobby A from United States Lamb, Dimitri dahhling on Instagram brought up interesting point. He said that MC has been setting the bar for the longest weeks at number one for decades. Ella Langley's dominance will fade here in about 4 weeks when Morgan Wallen's new song, Last Thing I Need or Taylor's surprise single dethrones her. MC will set the bar again for 28 weeks total potentially at number one this holiday season. MC will keep setting the bar until another artist beats her record again. Ella's reign is just another heartbreak country song that just made it into a brokenhearted lover's ear and wallet. (Wednesday 23 September 2026; 23:18) this is a reply to message 114,574

Ugh (114,571) by Stacey from USA Doesn't bother me per se. I always look forward to her "it's time" videos after Halloween. What does (caps) bother me is the "girls" making their grand entrance.

MC holiday fatigue (114,575) by nancy from Switzerland I don't go to her Christmas concerts anymore. I was in Berlin. The show was great. But now the voice is not there anymore. The songs are always the same. The gowns change. It's not worth it (at least for me) spending money for a flight, hotel, tickets. If she makes a tour to promote a new album then I will think about it and combine it with a city trip. She doesn't give her all anymore. I won't buy her new Christmas editions either. It's not passion but a rip off. Sorry. (Wednesday 23 September 2026; 14:17) this is a reply to message 114,573

MC holiday fatigue (114,573) by BFF from US It just makes me sad that Mariah has become so reliant on the holiday season for revenue to remain "relevant". The holiday concerts were fun when they started back in 2014 and probably up until 2018/19. But her approach to the holidays recently just comes across as desperation. It's painful to see her on stage lip syncing so much of the show and hardly moving with a pained, detached expression on her face. (Wednesday 23 September 2026; 01:08)
