The undisputed Queen of Christmas, Mariah Carey, has sent fans into a festive frenzy with the surprise announcement of her grand return to holiday music in 2025. The iconic singer revealed her plans through an emotional video message that has already set social media alight.
A Festive Countdown Begins
In a heartfelt video shared across her social platforms, Carey confirmed she will release a brand new Christmas single titled 'It's Time' in 2025. The announcement comes as the singer's perennial holiday classic 'All I Want for Christmas Is You' continues to dominate charts worldwide each December.
'I know it's only 2024, but I wanted to give you all something to look forward to,' Carey told her fans in the video, her voice filled with characteristic warmth. 'The holiday season means so much to me, and I can't wait to share this new music with you.'
Building on Unprecedented Success
Carey's dominance of the holiday music landscape is nothing short of remarkable. Her 1994 megahit 'All I Want for Christmas Is You' has become a cultural phenomenon, generating millions in royalties annually and consistently breaking streaming records each festive season.
The upcoming single represents Carey's first major Christmas release in years, signalling her intention to further cement her status as the ultimate holiday entertainer. Industry insiders are already predicting that 'It's Time' could become another seasonal staple.
