It could be a very special Christmas indeed for Mariah Carey, whose “All I Want For Christmas Is You” is on pace to hit No. 1 in the U.K. for the very first time.
Carey’s festive classic is in pole position after the weekend, with a lead of 1,300 combined sales over Wham’s “Last Christmas,” another holiday standard which has never reached the top of the chart tree.
Carey’s “Christmas” was released in 1994 and has a U.K. peak position of No. 2.
