Christmas music is everywhere as we get closer to the very festive holiday. At parties, in shopping malls, it seems like we can’t escape hearing some classic holiday tunes. One song in particular has taken on a life of it’s own though. And that is Mariah Carey’s “All I Want For Christmas Is You.” I thought I could highlight some different versions of it though. I wanted to take a look at the top 5 mashups of Mariah Carey’s Holiday classic!
Why is this song so appealing? I always thought it had something to do with the fact that although it came out in the early 90’s, it had kind of an “oldies” feel to it. Appealing to the kids who liked Mariah at the time, but also giving Mom and Dad a feeling of nostalgia from the days of their youth. It’s got an upbeat tempo to it. Kind of a toe-tapper if you will. And then boys, girls, men and women alike can all sig along and try to hit those high notes with Mariah. Whether seriously or just to be funny. It makes for a good time.
It’s also a feel-good Christmas anthem. Not that there’s anything wrong with sad songs or ones with heavy lyrics, but this just seems to resonate with a lot of folks because it’s not that deep. Just a fun little tune written to make your head bop.
Of course, in the world of the internet, you didn’t think people would just leave this song alone for us to enjoy did you? There are mashups galore to listen to if you’re in the mood to shake things up a bit. From rock tunes to pop classics all mixed with Mariah’s holiday hit. Let’s take a look at the top 5 mashups of Mariah Carey’s holiday classic!
