All I Want For Christmas Is You was written in just 15 minutes and recorded… in the middle of summer!
Mariah Carey and her co-writer Walter Afanasieff composed this iconic track in August 1994. They created a wintery vibe in the studio with Christmas trees and decorations to get into the holiday spirit.
Despite the summer heat, the song became an absolute Christmas classic. It has racked over 2 billion streams on Spotify and has generated more than $60 million in revenue since its release.
