Mariah Carey makes a welcomed return to UK charts

Celebrating its 20th birthday by returning to the Top 75 for the eighth consecutive year, Mariah Carey's All I Want For Christmas Is You jumps 146-68 on sales of 5,212 copies. A year ago this week it was also number 68 (up from number 98) on sales of 3,823.

While that seems to suggest it sold 36.33% more copies to earn the position this year than last, the reality is that 1,404 of its sales points this year came from streaming, and it actually sold 3,808 copies - a minuscule 0.39% fewer than in the same week last year.
