Mariah Carey reigns on TikTok Billboard Top 50

For the first time, a holiday-themed song tops the TikTok Billboard Top 50 chart, as Mariah Carey's "All I Want for Christmas Is You" reigns on the December 30-dated survey. "All I Want for Christmas Is You" rules after three straight weeks at No. 2, having risen to the top two on the December 9-dated tally. The song is concurrently No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for a second week in a row (and 14th week total, since 2019).

Carey's Christmas classic crowns the chart ahead of multiple fellow holiday standards as Christmas Day neared (the chart's latest cutoff was Christmas Eve, December 24). Usages of the songs ranged from holiday-specific comedy sketches to dances and soundtracking general Christmas content.

The chart's top five also features Wham!'s "Last Christmas" at No. 4, a new peak after previously reaching No. 7. Brenda Lee's "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree" (No. 8) and The Ronettes' "Sleigh Ride" (No. 10) also reach the top 10.

Jose Feliciano's "Feliz Navidad" (No. 17), Bobby Helms' "Jingle Bell Rock" (No. 18), Geek Music's "Elf - Main Theme" (No. 20), Sia's "Snowman" (No. 26) and a pair of Ariana Grande tunes ("Santa Tell Me", No. 44; "Last Christmas", No. 48) also represent Christmas on the latest ranking.
