  Speaker 2: Every music chart nerd knows Mariah Carey's holiday anthem, All
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: I Want for Christmas, owns the record for the most

  Speaker 2: weeks at number one on Billboard's Hot 100 at 22 total,
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: thanks to an arguably unfair advantage.

  Speaker 3: Yeah, because every holiday season it gets played everywhere and
• 0:17
  Speaker 3: not just a few more weeks at number one year
• 0:20
  Speaker 3: after year, only increasing its lead, which is why experts
