Christmas may be over but the ARIA Charts tell a different story, as Christmas songs take out 18 of the top 20 singles this week, including Mariah Carey’s All I Want For Christmas Is You back at #1.
Despite being pipped at the post for the Christmas week chart last week, this is Mariah’s sixth year in a row reaching #1 with the track during the Christmas season. Brenda Lee’s Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree scores #2, Wham! land at #3 with Last Christmas, Michael Bublé takes #4 with It’s Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas, while Ariana Grande rounds out the top 5 with Santa Tell Me.
The only two non-Christmas songs to break the top 20 are Jack Harlow’s Lovin On Me at #7 – down from #1 last week – and Greedy by Tate McRae at #15.
On the Albums Chart, Taylor Swift’s 1989 (Taylor’s Version) holds at #1 for the ninth consecutive week, after becoming the longest running #1 album of 2023 last week.
Michael Bublé’s Christmas climbs from #4 to match its 2022 peak at #2. It first hit #1 in 2011 and has been back there another five times, for a grand total of 15 weeks on top. Mariah also breaks back into the top 20 with Merry Christmas landing at #11, up from #32 last week. It peaked at #2 when it was first released in 1994.
