Mariah Carey Drops Her ‘Christmas Time Set List’ on Apple Music in Lead-Up to Tour Kick-Off

Queen of Christmas Mariah Carey is gearing up for her annual Christmas Time tour with a new Apple Music exclusive Christmas Time Tour set list playlist featuring a mix of her holiday classics and some of the singer’s most beloved non jingle-jangle hits.

The 20-song roster kicks off with the “Magical Christmas Mix” of “Sugar Plum Fairy,” followed by “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing/ Gloria (In Excelsis Deo),” “Joy to the World,” “Silent Night,” “O Holy Night,” “Christmas Time Is in the Air Again,” “Oh Santa!” (feat. Ariana Grande and Jennifer Hudson) and “Sleigh Ride,” among others.

MC also slipped in a few favorites, including “Emotions,” “Hero,” “It’s Like That,” “Fantasy,” “Always Be My Baby” and “We Belong Together,” ending, of course, with Carey’s titanic holiday No. 1 standard, “All I Want For Christmas Is You.”

In an accompanying essay, Carey told Apple Music that the touring show’s over-the-top atmosphere will be “festive, celebratory, joyous, happy, jolly, jovial,” though she added that there will also be some reflection in the mix as well. “There will also be poignant moments, because there’s a variety of moods in my songs and at the holidays,” she said.

And while Carey has reminded us that it’s not time yet to bust out the tinsel, the 20-date tour celebrating of the 30th anniversary of her 1994 hit album Merry Christmas will kick off on Nov. 6 in Highland, CA, with stops in Los Angeles, Atlanta, D.C. and Boston before wrapping up on Dec. 17 at Brooklyn’s Barclays Arena.
