Watch: Mariah Carey Finds Another Christmas Hit With Kirk Franklin and Khalid

For more than two decades Mariah Carey has been the unofficial Queen of Christmas. Her hit All I Want For Christmas Is You remains the most popular song for the season.

That song however just got some competition as Mariah’s newest Christmas “Fall In Love At Christmas” is the perfect jam to put you in the Holiday mood.

“Fall In Love At Christmas” features R&B artiste Khalid and gospel artiste Kirk Franklin.

Carey gave hints on the release from as early as October 31, when she posted a 29 second clip to her Instagram page with a short message saying, “it’s time.”

The track starts out with a slow tempo reminiscent of 90s R&B, unlike her Christmas hit “All I Want For Christmas Is You” . If she didn’t  this song oozes romantic love and togetherness for the season.

The supporting harmonies from Khalid, and the coral arrangements from Franklin prepared the way for Carey to bring down the house with her solo signature high note.

Carey’s biggest international song “All I want For Christmas” has topped music charts in twenty-six countries including the US, UK, Australia, Canada, France and Germany. 25 years after its release it topped the Billboard Hot 100 for the first time in 2019, then again in 2020.

With over over 17 million copies, it is the best-selling Christmas single by a female artist and one of the best selling singles of all time. By 2017, it had reportedly earned $60 million in royalties.

Two music videos were commissioned for the song. The original video has 698 million views to date, while the newer version, released last year, has 172 million views on YouTube.

With a new song and a star studded line up; Mariah, (Khalid and Kirk Franklin) have a new Christmas hit on her hands.
