Between the Advent calendar and the installation of the tree in a corner of the living room, there is another use that has acquired the rank of tradition: the launch of the festivities the day after Halloween by Mariah Carey, interpreter of the intoxicating All I want for Christmas is you.
This Saturday, November 1, as usual, the 55-year-old American singer published a video on social networks to start the season.
In this video, Mariah Carey is dressed as an angel and is about to launch her famous “It’s time!” (“It’s time!”) when he discovers that an elf has stolen his gifts. Gifts that were in a bag with the colors of a famous perfumery brand.
“Bad news Mariah Carey, the elves are on strike this year. It’s revenge for having plunged us into Christmas hell,” says the thief, angry with the artist. “Christmas is cancelled!”
But the singer doesn’t see it that way and ends up singing her “It’s time!” before donning a Christmas-colored dress and flying on a reindeer sleigh.
A title translated into a story and musical comedy
A piece that over time has become part of the soundtrack of the end of the year celebrations, All I want for Christmas is you co-written by Mariah Carey and Walter Afanasieff, it originally appeared on Mariah Carey’s 1994 Christmas album, Merry christmas.
In 2022, on New Year’s Eve, it had become the most listened to song on Spotify in one day. And according to an estimate from the magazine. Forbes As of 2019, it had raised over $60 million since its release.
Mariah Carey obviously didn’t stop at the song to take advantage of this goose that laid the golden eggs. For this reason, he declined the title of a children’s story, an animated film and musical comedy for Apple TV+.
