I feel Hero is more like a signature song by Mariah. AIWFCIY is like a classic holiday song which everyone likes but seldom gives credit to whoever sings it. If just a regular folk goes to see Mariah Carey's concert I guess the person would more expect her to sing HERO than AIWFCIY.

I'd have to agree with "Hero". I would agree with AIWFCIY, all of the points made for that are valid. But the song kind of transcends Mariah to a point where people don't necessarily look at her and think "She sings that great Christmas song." When that song resurfaces every year, it's more like "Forget everything else I think about Mariah Carey. I love this song." So you could say "biggest hit" but I wouldn't say "signature" any other time than the holidays. In Japan, perhaps. They love that song all year.


They love All I Want For Christmas Is You here all year long too. Last summer I was at a party and went up to the DJ to ask for a Mariah song. I said that I didn't mind which song he would play as long as it wasn't AIWFCIY. But as he didn't have any other MC song, he did play it and although it was hot outside, the crowd went wild. It was really fun to see how everybody reacted to it mid summer!

  
Haha. Yeah. It is also a kareoke fav among my friends.
