Could It be possible (107,747) by Edward from USA
Lil Nas X has tied his own record with Tipsy, as 19 weeks remains the longest a song has ever stayed at the top. Given that Mariah Carey's All I Want for Christmas Is You lost a bit of momentum last year, I didn’t expect it to perform as strongly this year. However, it seems AIWFCIY might still put up a tough fight for the top spot this season. It could either dethrone Kendrick Lamar next week or face a dramatic diva showdown with Brenda the following week. It's going to be interesting to see how things will play out.

Could It be possible (107,744) by Edward from USA
On the Billboard Hot 100, Kendrick Lamar holds seven positions with new songs from his latest album, GNX. These positions include spots 1 through 5 and 8 to 9. "A Bar Song (Tipsy)" by Shaboozey and "Die With A Smile" by Lady Gaga & Bruno Mars hold positions 6 and 7, respectively, but are marked with descending bullets, indicating a decline.

If Kendrick Lamar's "Squabble Up" does not remain at number one next week, it’s highly likely that Mariah Carey’s "All I Want for Christmas Is You" will take the top spot as the holiday season continues to heat up.

If my predictions are wrong and Kendrick Lamar stays at number one, Brenda might knock Mariah right out of her stilettos and snatch her wig off or Mariah might have Brenda relocated to a nursing home for a couple of weeks.

I didn't even know iTunes was still around or a relevant indicator on anything pertaining the charts.

Billboard 100 (107,725) by Edward from USA
A song could reach number one on the Billboard Hot 100, yet rank only number 10 on the Holiday Chart. This happens because each chart reflects different aspects of a song's performance and caters to specific audiences.

The Hot 100 reflects overall popularity across all genres, combining metrics like streaming, radio airplay, and sales from a broad audience.

In contrast, the Holiday 100 Chart focuses solely on the song's performance within the holiday genre. It factors in specialized radio airplay, genre-specific streaming, and sales data relevant to that category.

So, a song might dominate the mainstream charts due to widespread appeal, but its performance within a specific genre may be weaker in comparison resulting in a lower ranking on that genre specific chart.

Billboard 100 (107,720) by Edward from USA
These are clearly two distinct charts. The Holiday 100 focuses exclusively on Holiday music, while the Hot 100 considers music from all genres, making the competition significantly tougher. As you can see, only a few of the currently most popular holiday songs have made their way onto the Hot 100.

Billboard 100 (107,717) by Edward from USA
And somewhere on the Holiday 100, the top 10 looks like this:

1. "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree" – Brenda Lee
2. "All I Want for Christmas Is You" – Mariah Carey
3. "Jingle Bell Rock" – Bobby Helms
4. "A Holly Jolly Christmas" – Burl Ives
5. "Last Christmas" – Wham!
6. "Feliz Navidad" – José Feliciano
7. "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year" – Andy Williams
8. "Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow" – Dean Martin
9. "White Christmas" – Bing Crosby
10. "Santa Tell Me" – Ariana Grande

Since the Holiday 100 usually hints at how the Hot 100 is going to play out, Mariah better grab some glue and secure that weave because Brenda, rocking slow but steady from her chair, is going to try and snatch it.

New music? (107,653) by Edward from USA
I truly believed that with MC turning 30, Mariah would go all out with new music, a fresh video, and a TV special. Sadly, that doesn't seem to be the case. Considering Brenda Lee has already hit number one on the Billboard Holiday charts, it feels like the perfect opportunity for Mariah to bring her A-game this season.

Celebrity endorsements (107,627) by Edward from USA
Celebrities should stop being condescending and assuming people are uninformed and stupid. They should stop acting as if they know what's best for us from their million-dollar mansions. Let people vote for whomever they choose, period. They should cast their votes and shut up.

Christmas tour 2024 (107,623) by Edward from USA
I wasn't going to comment but since you asked, I expected Mariah to go all out with the production, especially with the Merry Christmas celebrating its 30th anniversary. Unfortunately, it feels like more of the same to me. Mariah isn't glancing at the monitors because she's forgotten any lyrics, she's watching for her lipping cues. She appears dazed, and her platform heels are so high she can barely take a step. For a festive show, the energy is severely lacking. I'm not impressed at all. On a positive note, she seems to have added a woman to her dance crew, finally.

Can you pinpoint specific moments in the performance to support your statement? Mariah hasn't ever been a great lipper.

AMAs performance (107,487) by Edward from USA
Performances like this are usually recorded multiple times from different angles, which can sometimes give the impression that playback was used. For instance, the VH1 duet of "With You I'm Born Again" with John Legend was taped 3 times, I know because I was in the audience. The woman performed one song, but she delivered it live. Credit where credit is due.

I simply shared my opinion on the performance, and it wasn't based on any template or influenced by Robert-Anthony's style of posting.

The mike was definitely on. We have to give her credit for this performance. If you look closely, paying attention to her mouth, neck and demeanor, you can tell when she's lipping. To be honest, judging by recent performances, I thought it would be more of the same, but I'm glad to have been proven wrong. I'm a happy for her.

Mariah kept it simple and classic. She arranged the song accordingly to make difficult transitions smoother. I have the impression she really practiced for this one. One well delivered song was good enough for me.

AMA's anticipation is high (107,454) by Edward from USA
Robert-Anthony just tends to have a lot of feelings. When the board goes quiet, he panics and jumps in with a random topic just to keep the conversation alive. But don’t take him for granted, one of these days, he might get himself a boyfriend, and the frequency of his messages could drop to just four or five per day. Then you'll end up missing him.

We love ourselves some Robert-Anthony.

Help with my MC ballads playlist (107,311) by Edward from USA
I faded out the connecting parts from the "Angels Cry" prelude and the "Languishing" interlude. Now I'm working on removing JD's annoying voice from "Last Kiss" and many other tracks he ruined, for me at least.

Death, family relationships (107,275) by Edward from USA
When someone passes away, it's natural for people to hope that the family will come together and support one another during these challenging times. It's not about telling anyone what to do but about wishing for the healing of broken bonds or, at the very least, forgiveness and moving forward. Such a wish for Mariah and her brother Morgan shouldn't have been met with such vitriol and scrutiny. I don't understand the overtly emotional reaction to a common sentiment, but some people love making things about themselves. The woman lost two members of her family on the same day for heaven sake. I'm pretty sure she's not there thinking about her past problems with her mother, Alison and her remaining sibling.

Your experience and her experience are different. They were very close until E=MC2. I hope they mend their difference and at least forgive each other. Life is too short. In the end, other than Tanaka and her kids, the rest are still around for her coins.
