November just started, and Mariah Carey’s annual holiday staple “All I Want For Christmas Is You” is already returning to prominence.

Its resurgence, in turn, yields a big overall YouTube gain for Carey.

Credited with 956,000 US views during the November 1-7 tracking period, the official video re-enters the Global YouTube Music Videos Chart at #79.

With views from other eligible uploads included, “AIWFCIY” amassed 2.05 million total US streams this week. Carey’s top-performing track by a considerable margin, the holiday song assists with a return to the US YouTube Artists Chart. Carey takes #78 on this week’s chart, courtesy of her 7.97 million overall US streams.

Both the song and Carey are sure to rise in the weeks leading up to Christmas.
