Mariah Carey might not be the Queen of Christmas for much longer.
Her holiday hit “All I Want For Christmas” has been dethroned as the most-played holiday song of the season — at least according to one list.
PlayNetwork compiled a list of the top 20 songs shoppers will hear over and over this season and Carey’s iconic song has fallen into the No. 2 slot behind The Shins’ 2012 cover of “Wonderful Christmastime.”

"The songs themselves transcend demographics, which is why we see the same titles more than once but performed by different artists," said Julia Cummings, director of Music Services at PlayNetwork, in a statement.
Also making the list at No. 12 is the holiday favorite “Feliz Navidad” by Puerto Rican Jose Feliciano.
