"All I Want for Christmas Is You" (1994) was not commercially released in the U.S.

Notes:

¹ "All I Want for Christmas Is You" did not appear on the Billboard Hot 100 during its original release as a commercial single was not issued in the U.S. In 2000, the song entered the chart and peaked at number eighty-three because after 1999, singles were capable of charting on the Hot 100 without a commercial single release and the song had received enough radio airplay to appear on the chart.^{[citation needed]} It reached number two in Japan, Carey's highest-ever placement on that country's Oricon singles chart.

² U.S. chart positions outside of the Billboard Hot 100 are according to Billboard's Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart. The "bubbling under" chart only represents the twenty-five singles below the Hot 100's number 100 position which have not yet appeared on the Hot 100.

³ U.S. video and radio promotion for "Sweetheart", the scheduled commercial release for which was cancelled, began before the eligibility rules for the Billboard Hot 100 were changed to allow album cuts to chart. After the change of rules for the Hot 100, the rules for the Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart were changed as well, to allow airplay-only singles and songs that were "bubbling under" to chart there. On the first week of the rule change and at the end of its run as a promotional single, "Sweetheart" appeared at twenty-five on the Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart.^{[citation needed]}

⁴ "Can't Take That Away (Mariah's Theme)" and "Crybaby" were released as a double A-side in the United States, but only "Can't Take That Away" was released in other countries.

⁵ "Never Too Far" and "Don't Stop (Funkin' 4 Jamaica)" were released as a double A-side in the United Kingdom, but charted separately elsewhere.

⁶ "Get Your Number" was released as a double A-side with "Shake It Off" in countries such as the United Kingdom and Ireland.

⁷ Position on the Hot 100 Airplay Chart
