All I Want For Christmas is no longer number one

Don’t tell Mariah Carey that she’s lost her throne because it might bring out the Diva in her, and we wouldn’t want that.

Actually, we would like that because we quite enjoy a Diva tantrum from time to time.

But yes, Queen of Christmas Mariah Carey isn’t going to be happy that her festive season classic, All I Want For Christmas Is You is no longer the number one Christmas song.

PlayNetwork, which compiles the holiday playlists for hundreds of retailers every year, reported that The Shins’ cover of Wonderful Christmastime has officially pushed Carey out of the top spot this year.
