In the United States, in the first week of January 1995, "All I Want for Christmas Is You" peaked at No. 6 on the "Billboard" Hot Adult Contemporary and at No. 12 on the Hot 100 Airplay chart. The song placed on these two charts again in December 1995 and in December 1996. The song was ineligible for inclusion on the "Billboard" Hot 100 during its original release, because it was not released commercially as a single in any physical format. This rule lapsed in 1998, however, allowing the song to chart on the "Billboard" Hot 100 (peaking at No. 83 in January 2000). The song topped the "Billboard" Hot Digital Songs chart in December 2005, but it was unable to attain a new peak on the "Billboard" Hot 100 chart because it was considered a recurrent single and was thus ineligible for chart re-entry.
