Mariah Carey (born March 27, 1969 or 1970) is an American singer, songwriter, actress, and record producer. Referred to as the "Songbird Supreme" by Guinness World Records, she is noted for her five-octave vocal range, melismatic singing style, and signature use of the whistle register.
She rose to fame in 1990 after signing to Columbia Records and releasing her eponymous debut album, which topped the U.S. Billboard 200 for eleven consecutive weeks. Soon after, Carey became the only artist ever to have their first five singles reach number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart, from "Vision of Love" to "Emotions".
Todd Gilchrist editor Great Christmas songs, and great versions of great Christmas songs, are as plentiful as letters to Santa Claus.
It’s the holiday for which various-artists compilations were seemingly created (and why the two-disc set “Now That’s What I Call Christmas” was certified 6x platinum just three years after its 2001 release).
But great Christmas albums are harder to come by. One reason may be that the genre’s standards are so well-known that new versions must stand up more famous and beloved renditions.
Moreover, that canon is also so firmly established that it’s tough to gain a foothold even with a song that’s merry and bright. (The last one that comes to mind is Mariah Carey’s “All I Want For Christmas Is You,” from 1994.) Even some of the industry’s most talented artists, working with an army of songwriters, musicians and producers, haven’t been able to crack the Christmas code (Beach Boys’ “Santa’s Beard,” I’m looking at you).
