Mariah Carey's 'Fall In Love At Christmas' Voted Most Favorite At Billboard's Poll
Mariah Carey’s holiday season track “Fall In Love At Christmas” was hailed this week’s top fan-voted new music release, according to a Billboard poll.
The tune emerged as the winner after Billboard published a poll last Friday and asked fans about their favorite holiday tune gathering new music releases of the past week.
In the poll, “Fall In Love At Christmas” competed with Post Malone and the Weeknd’s “One Right Now,” Silk Sonic’s “Smokin Out The Window,” ABBA’s “Voyage,” Summer Walker’s “Still Over It,” Travis Scott’s “Escape Plan,” Radiohead’s “Kid A MNESIA” and other tunes that were simply labeled as “other.”
“Fall In Love At Christmas,” Carey’s collaborative tune with Kirk Franklin and Khalid, brought 50% of the votes followed by “One Right Now” with 18.79% of the votes. “Smokin Out The Window” got the third place with 18.48% of the votes.

The track was written and produced by Carey, Franklin and Daniel Moore II and features Carey’s distinct and incomparable head tones and whistling notes. It was released by Carey’s imprint MARIAH in partnership with RCA Records, as per New York Post.
The first and only performance of “Fall in Love at Christmas” will premiere on AppleTV+ in the holiday event titled “Mariah’s Christmas: The Magic Continues” in December, the report said.
Carey released the track just a few days after she smashed a pumpkin on Nov. 1, officially declaring Halloween is over and the Christmas season is taking over.
In the short clip which she shared on Twitter on Nov. 1, Carey could be seen holding a Christmas-themed baseball bat while wearing a glittery, long red gown with matching heels. She enters a room with Halloween-themed decoration and happily smashes the pumpkin with the word “Not” leaving two pumpkins that says, “It’s Time.”
Her iconic 1994 hit, “All I Want For Christmas,” plays on queue as the singer scraps the Halloween decorations and reappears in a Santa costume with festive Christmas displays.
The clip concludes with the phrase, “ It's Time!!! To smash that pumpkin and treat it as pie... cause we still gotta get through Thanksgiving!!!"
