Nothing says that it is the holiday season like Mariah Carey’s All I Want for Christmas is You. The 18-year-old tune (yes, this classic was born in 1994!) still gets us pumped up to get our holiday shopping done and is one of the few worthy modern additions to the holiday song hot list. In fact, the song made our list for the top upbeat Christmas songs to exercise to. Can you blame us? All I Want for Christmas is You is a holiday standard.
But there is no stopping us. We want more holiday-themed workouts to get us through these last few work days and keep the holiday spirit alive while we think about how close we are to a few days sans cube life. The up-tempo song is composed of dance-pop and R&B with layers of sleigh-ride instruments like bells and chimes. Even the Grinch smiles at this one.
As far as holiday airplay goes, we are fine singing along to the very merry Mariah mix…even if it means we have to do a few Turtle Dove Toe Touch Crunches while we listen to it on repeat.
