Mariah Carey Releases Special Edition of “All I Want For Christmas Is You” Video for Her Fans

Mariah Carey is giving her fans a special Christmas gift…

The 54-year-old half-Venezuelan Grammy-winning songstress has been traveling across the country for nearly a month on her festive Merry Christmas One and All tour and she’s officially presented her fans with the greatest gift of all: a new Lambs-centric video for her modern holiday classic, “All I Want For Christmas Is You.”

Mariah Carey“The best thing about being on tour is getting to celebrate the holidays with my lambily!! To show my appreciation, here is a new video for ‘All I Want For Christmas Is You,’ [Christmas tree, present emoji],” she tweeted. “I’m calling this one the ‘Festive Lambs Edition!’ [heart, snowman emoji].”

The refreshed clip opens with footage of Carey getting touched up backstage before a quick cut of super-excited fans in their Santa finest getting pumped for the show.

The rest of the four-minute visual is essentially a super-cut featuring footage from the concerts intercut with rehearsal run-throughs, peeks at the action backstage, lots of shots of fans singing and dancing along with all their hearts and enough unabashed joy to float you through the next two weeks.

Carey kicked off the tour on November 15 at the Yaamava’ Casino in Highland, CA and she’s kept the sled fueled up through dates at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, as well as gigs in Denver, Kansas City, Toronto, Montreal, Detroit, Chicago and Pittsburgh.

She’ll touch down in Boston on Monday, December 11 as the run winds down with stops in Philadelphia (December 13), Baltimore (December 15) and a final gig at Madison Square Garden in New York on December 17.

Because it’s MC’s time of year, of course “All I Want for Christmas is You” reclaimed the top spot on both the Billboard Global 200 and the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts dated December 9, dashing from No. 3 to No. 1 on the former and 8-1 on the latter.
