Mariah Carey‘s “All I Want for Christmas Is You, ” is extending its record on Billboard’s Billboard Global 200, rebounding a spot to the summit for the 20th time.

The 56-year-old half-Venezuelan American Grammy-winning singer’s 1994 modern classic widens its lead over HUNTR/X’s “Golden” and Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars’ “Die With a Smile,” each in second place with 18 weeks on top, for the longest command since the chart began in September 2020.

“All I Want for Christmas Is You” tops the Global 200 with 101.6 million streams (up 8% week-over-week) and 7,000 sold (up 2%) worldwide in the week ending December 18.

The Billboard Global 200 ranks songs based on streaming and sales activity culled from more than 200 territories around the world, as compiled by Luminate. The Global 200 is inclusive of worldwide data.

Chart ranks are based on a weighted formula incorporating official-only streams on both subscription and ad-supported tiers of audio and video music services, as well as download sales, the latter of which reflect purchases from full-service digital music retailers from around the world, with sales from direct-to-consumer (D2C) sites excluded from the charts’ calculations.
