I loved the song growing up and still think it is catchy and sweet. It is just so overplayed.

I'm fascinated that All I Want For Christmas is You has grossed more than $60 million since its debut. $2.5 million dollars a year!

Christmas song royalties are coveted. Cheddar showed most Christmas songs are from the 1940s-1950s. Many pop stars make Christmas songs still hoping theirs will remain memorable and become part of the Christmas culture, but few do. Mariah Carey is one of the few modern artists to have a popular Christmas songs.

I'm showing my age here calling her "modern". :)
