00:18Yay!

00:22Mind blown, how do you feel about breaking that record?

00:25Oh, it's amazing, honestly. It really is. I can't lie.

00:32I mean, you've got an incredible career, obviously, 19 number ones, but to then have this record with One Sweet Day,

00:39and then it was taken from me for a second.

00:42It was robbed of me.

00:43How did you feel in that moment with Lil Nas X and then, of course, Shabuzi ending up, you know,

00:49breaking the record for the time that they did?

00:51I was upset, but what are you going to do?

00:54Well, what you're going to do is have a classic Christmas song that returns to number one every year.

00:59That's what you're going to do.

01:01So, did you know that All I Want for Christmas Is You would be this for you?

01:05No. I had no idea.

01:08That just became such a thing that I never could have predicted it. Ever. So...

01:14And, I mean, 20 weeks. How far do you think we can go here?

01:16I don't know.

01:17I feel like 30, 40. It's the longest-running number one of all time.

01:22Yeah, but at a certain point, it's not Christmas anymore, and, you know.

01:28But I love it. I'm about to get to my holiday destination and go enjoy the holidays myself,

01:36because I'm putting on this Christmas show, so we're doing this every night.

01:40But really, I just want to be celebrating at home.

01:43Well, I wish you to get home very fast.

01:45Well, thank you so much. Congratulations, Mariah.

01:48Thank you so much. This has been a fun time.
