'Tis the season for Christmas music on repeat. After releasing its yearly Wrapped results, Spotify posted data on holiday songs.

On Instagram, the music streamer shared lists of its most streamed holiday songs of all time and the most streamed Christmas tunes by decade.

Unsurprisingly, Mariah Carey's All I Want For Christmas Is You is the most-played holiday track of all time on the app, followed by Wham!'s Last Christmas, Ariana Grande's Santa Tell Me, Brenda Lee's Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree, and Michael Bublé's It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas.

Spotify also revealed the most streamed Christmas music per decade on the app: from the 1950s, it's Bobby Helms' Jingle Bell Rock. On the other hand, the most played song from the '60s is Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree, followed by the '70s tune Paul McCartney's Wonderful Christmastime, '80s song Last Christmas, and '90s track All I Want for Christmas Is You.

In the 2000s, Britney SpearsMy Only Wish (This Year) topped the list, followed by 2010s hit Santa Tell Me by Ariana Grande. For the 2020s, Santa, Can't You Hear Me by Ariana Grande and Kelly Clarkson is the most popular holiday song.

Earlier in December, Spotify Wrapped dropped, giving users insights into their listening habits for the year including showing their music hyper fixations, the artists they have the "longest listening streak" with, and more.

To no one's surprise, Taylor Swift emerged as the streamer's Global Top Artist for the second year in a row. On her heels are other prominent singers such as The Weeknd, Bad Bunny, Drake, and Billie Eilish, respectively.
