“All I Want For Christmas Is You” Has Been Voted The Most Annoying Christmas Song

When Christmas begins to roll around, that also means hearing “All I Want For Christmas Is You” by Mariah Carey 50 times in one day. Some people can never get enough of the holly jolly feeling the song brings. Others argue that this song has become the biggest Christmas annoyance in the form of song. Many other artists have gone on to release their own rendition of the song, but none of them are quite as popular as Mariah Carey’s original version.

The song was released by Columbia Records on October 29th, 1994. It was the lead single from her fourth studio album and first Christmas album called Merry Christmas (1994). The song was incredibly successful right off the bat. It would top the charts in places like Australia, Austria, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Hungary, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, and many more. It would reach No. 3 in the U.S. and the top 10 in several other countries.
