The preview shows music producer Randy Jackson, Variety music editor Shirley Halperin, Billboard charts director Gary Trust and Carey's backup singer Trey Lorenz reflect on how "All I Want for Christmas is You" became a surprise hit.

"It's just so catchy. The harmonies; the way the music was done," Lorenz says.

The trailer also features an interview with Carey, 49.

"I just remember where I was coming from, wanting it to feel like a classic," the singer says. "It was an accomplishment for me that I was really proud of."

Carey released "All I Want for Christmas is You" in October 1994. The song appears on her first holiday album, Merry Christmas, released in November 1994.

Carey shared a video in November featuring new footage from her iconic "All I Want for Christmas is You" music video. She re-released Merry Christmas as a two-disc deluxe edition the same month.
