If you’ve been paying close attention to the Billboard 200 chart over the years, you’ve noticed that Christmas albums tend to rule it come the holiday season. 2020 is no different, but things feel extra-special right now since half of the records in the top ten this week happen to be holiday albums.

A Christmas album is yet to reach the no. 1 spot, which is usually reserved for new releases, such as Shawn Mendes’ Wonder or Bad Bunny’s El Ultimo Tour del Mundo. This week’s top ten is still composed of five holiday-efforts, which hasn’t happened since 2013.

Michael Bublé’s former no. 1 album Christmas made it to no. 4 on the Billboard 200 chart this week, and it was closely followed by Carrie Underwood’s My Gift at no. 5, Nat King Cole’s The Christmas Song at no. 7, Pentatonix’s The Best of Pentatonix Christmas at no. 8 and Mariah Carey’s Merry Christmas at no. 10.

To make the whole thing even more festive, the Christmas spirit has also overtaken the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Mariah Carey’s “All I Want For Christmas Is You” made its way back to the no. 1 spot, and it also topped the Billboard Global 200 chart.

The holiday season simply wouldn’t be the same without numerous exciting Christmas specials. Some of them are fronted by our favorite music stars, and here are three that got everyone talking this holiday season.

Mariah Carey’s Magical Christmas Special

Mariah Carey is the unofficial queen of Christmas, so it’s not surprising that she gave us the best holiday special of 2020. It features her take on some of the most beloved holiday tunes and celebrity cameos from the likes of Ariana Grande and Jennifer Hudson.

A Holly Dolly Christmas

This holiday season is pretty magical for Dolly Parton. In addition to appearing in her own Christmas special A Holly Dolly Christmas, alongside Michael Bublé, Billy Ray Cyrus, and Miley Cyrus, she also fronted the Netflix musical Dolly Parton’s Christmas on the Square.

My Gift: A Christmas Special from Carrie Underwood

Carrie Underwood’s first Christmas album My Gift hit the shelves earlier this fall and she came up with a perfect way to bring it back into our lives this holiday season. The country star fronted an HBO Christmas special that features the songs from her latest album.

Mariah Carey recorded her famous Christmas song All I Want for Christmas Is You back in 1994 and included her in the album Merry Christmas. Over the past 25 years, the song’s popularity never faded and it seems like it’s now even more popular than ever before. After all, it finally ended up in the first place of the Billboard Hot 100 list.

This is Carey’s 19th song to become No. 1 on Hot 100, which is such an incredible triumph. We can rightfully expect it to stay at the top place for the 2010s charts, too. Carey also recorded a brand new video for the song and you can see it below.

If you were wondering who has the most number ones on the hot 100 chart, it’s still The Beatles, who hold the record with 20 songs. Carey is the current winner among the solo artists, but she only needs one more super hit to tie with The Beatles. This is her third decade in which she’s had chart-topping hits — the 1990s, 2000s, and now 2010s. And since we’re about to enter the 2020s really soon and Carey is back stronger than ever, we can only watch what happens next.
