“All I Want for Christmas is You” debuted in 1994 and has become a classic ever since. “Mariah’s tried to outdo herself by re-recording it with a new intro, and then she tried it again with the [2011 duet] version with Justin Bieber,” Walter Afanasieff, co-writer of the song, said in 2014.

“You can’t reinvent the wheel when you’ve got something that, by the world’s standards, is already perfect,” Afanasieff explained. “I’m not saying that to pat myself on the back, but it’s what everyone says: ‘We don’t want a new version; we don’t want an updated version, we just want that!'”
