That time of year has begun: the world has started listening to Mariah Carey's 'All I Want For Christmas Is You' again.
There are loads of things that will signal the arrival of the Christmas season, whether that be the first dusting of snow, Xmas markets, mulled wine, the Coca-Cola Christmas truck or even a few festive commercials.
But for others, it's hearing Mariah's hit seasonal song over the radio, at shopping centres and on your streaming service.
Even though we have only just ticked over into November, it appears people are gearing up for the big day as 'All I Want For Christmas Is You' has reentered the Top 100 on US iTunes Songs chart.
While it's right on the periphery at number 100, there is no doubt it will rocket up that list as we edge closer to December 25.
Despite the song being released more than 25 years ago, it only managed to reach the number one spot on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the United States for the first time ever last year.
Mariah celebrated the achievement with a simple tweet that said: "We did it."
It wasn't eligible for the charts when it was first released because it wasn't put out as a single, while it was also previously ruled in the US that a song couldn't chart if it was a recurrent single.
The full list is a follows:
- 'All I Want for Christmas is You' - Mariah Carey
- 'Do They Know It's Christmas?' - Band Aid
- 'I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday' - Wizzard
- 'Merry Xmas Everybody' - Slade
- 'Last Christmas' - Wham!
- 'Fairytale of New York' - The Pogues and Kirsty MacColl
- 'Baby It's Cold Outside' - Tom Jones & Cerys Matthews
- 'Santa Claus is Coming to Town' - Jackson 5
- 'Santa Baby' - Eartha Kitt
- 'Jingle Bells' - Andrews Sister
