It’s also well known for winning the British Single of the Year at the 2012 BRIT Awards.

All I Want for Christmas Is YouMerry Christmas
Mariah Carey’s signature song, “All I Want for Christmas Is You.” Although this piece is often cited as a difficult song, it’s not without singable elements.
The tricky part is mainly the slow-tempo opening; once the beat kicks in and the tempo picks up, the kind of wide-interval vocal runs heard in the intro appear less frequently.
Even so, the overall difficulty remains on the higher side, but given its top-tier recognition and popularity, it’s well worth the challenge.
WE ARE THE CHAMPIONSQueen
You can’t talk about rock or Western karaoke without Queen.
If you sing this song, it’ll definitely get the crowd going, and with some mic performance added, you’re sure to become popular in a single night.
