It has become the first holiday ringtone to be certified double-platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Additionally, of songs recorded before the year 2000, it is the best-selling digital single by a woman, as well as the overall best-selling holiday digital single. As of December 2019, total sales of the digital track according to Nielsen SoundScan was 3,588,000. On the US "Rolling Stone" 100, the song topped the charts during the week of December 12, 2019, becoming Carey's first number-one song on the chart, and fourteenth overall to reach the top of the chart. On the chart dated December 19, 2020, "All I Want for Christmas is You" returned to the No. 1 spot on the Hot 100, spending a fourth week atop the chart, and in doing so, the song tied "The Chipmunk Song" (which also spent four weeks atop) as the longest-leading holiday hit on the Hot 100. Additionally, it became only the second song in the chart's history to reach number one in two separate chart runs, after Chubby Checker's "The Twist" which reached number one in September 1960 and then again in January 1962. After dropping to number two the following week, it reached the summit again on the chart dated January 2, 2021, becoming the first song to hold the top position in three different chart years (2019, 2020, and 2021) as well as the first holiday song to spend a total of five weeks at that spot.
