Mariah Carey Reached Number One Thanks to TikTok, Soulja Boy, and The Rock
A YouTuber is the U.K. Christmas number one and Carey climbed the charts in the U.S. due to TikTok, YouTube and Spotify streams
It’s the most wonderful time of the year, and we think we can take a guess at the kind of music you’ll be listening to, whether it’s on Spotify, YouTube or TikTok.
Yep, it’s ‘All I Want For Christmas Is You’, obviously. The song is a Christmas classic, and we tend to agree with Tasha Sterrette, who commented under the video yesterday “Not Christmas until you play this song ❤️‼️”. It’s such a moneyspinner that Carey released a new version of it — the Make My Wish Come True Edition — last week.
But that’s not the only way the Christmas classic has been given a twist, especially if you cast your eyes off YouTube and onto TikTok. In fact, Mariah Carey’s version of the song — warbling vocals and all — isn’t even the most popular iteration of the track on TikTok this Christmas.
