“I don’t want a lot for Christmas” but for some, the one thing they do want is to hear the song again!
A poll across the UK has found that the most annoying Christmas song out there isn’t “Jingle Bells” or “Dominick the Donkey” or even “Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer” but rather Mariah Carey’s “All I Want For Christmas Is You," Variety reported.
Huawei, a mobile phone company, conducted the survey.
The Carey Christmas Classic may be the number one most annoying, but some other songs you hear on constant rotation on the radio also made the list, Variety reported.
1. “All I Want For Christmas Is You” by Mariah Carey
2. “Do They Know It’s Christmas?” by Band-Aid
3. “I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday,” by Wizzard
4. “Merry Xmas Everybody” by Slade
5. “Last Christmas” by Wham!
Despite its ranking in this mobile phone poll, Carey is still sitting on the top of another, more prestigious list, Billboard’s Holiday 100 chart. The ranking takes into account Holiday Airplay, Holiday Streaming Songs and Holiday Digital Song sales, according to Billboard.
The songstress also took home a Guinness World Record last month for the holiday tune. Carey has the highest-charting holiday song on the Hot 100 by a solo artist, the most streamed track on Spotify in 24 hours and the song broke the record for the most weeks on the UK singles Top 10, E!
