Mariah Carey's "All I Want For Christmas Is You" is the most popular holiday song of all time, that is a fact. Scientifically proven to be catchy and irresistible, the song has dominated holiday season after holiday season since it came out nearly two decades ago. Adding yet another accolade under its belt, according to Chart Data the song now holds the record for most streams in a single day.

Fittingly breaking the record on Christmas Eve, "All I Want For Christmas Is You" was streamed 10.8 million times globally on Spotify. Which roughly amounts to a whopping collective 720,000 hours listened or 82 years worth of Mariah Carey spreading Christmas cheer. She beats out XXXtentacion's "SAD!" which previously broke the record earlier this year, getting 10.4 million streams the day after the rapper's death.
