i have so far not heard the song yet. all of the tv channels in my area are mostly just playing generic holiday ads, and none of my christmas playlists have the song on it. i also don't really leave my house.

That's what I thought in 2022 as I clicked on the tree icon.
 
Alright... 6-times champ I will not be this year... My radio station (workplace) played the song during one of the hosts' interludes (my favorite one which is a christmasholic) and my community manager colleague blasted it off while searching a TikTok to do with the hosts as a post-death uppercut... I'm out :(
 
Count me in, I’m still standing.

I haven’t heard too many christmas songs yet actually. I hate christmas songs so I tend to survive easily. But we do have a radio in the kitchen.. although it usually plays Radio Rock Norway, you never know if it suddenly change.. same in the car. Always on Radio Rock. Doubt they decide to play this song.

I even survived a trip to the mall today without hearing any songs. :lol:
 
I somewhat heard the piano sequence to the song while scrolling through Instagram’s reels, but after listening some more, it turned out to be one of those stupid covers with a guy’s voice subbing for Mariah’s. So yeah, not sure if I’m out or still safe. I’ll let you guys decide.

But come to think of it, I’m surprised I made it this far. I mean, I didn’t really take any precautionary measures since joining, and browsing IG reels without even muting your smartphone is kinda like walking in landmined territory with loaded bombers flying overhead. :lol:

Edit: …and minutes after writing this post Mariah came blaring through a closed door from my dad who was listening to Spotify in the next room when the ad came on. Better luck next year. :cheers:

At work re-writing a paper with next week deadline, I decided to focus with my John Adams symphonic playlist when, all of a sudden advertisement started. As soon as I heard "Ciao Italia, it's Mariah Carey, thank you for liste..." I immediately put down my headphones and waited a couple of minutes to be sure I was safe... Spotify should really be adjusting its algorithms though
 
School Christmas show this evening, almost every other song was a George or MC, yet none were originals.

I’m out anyway so it doesn’t matter, but I’m seeing the blanket effect these songs have at the Yuletide.
 
I never officially signed up, but I did get Carey’d today, for probably the first time in a decade.

Passed by a radio and it was playing.

Ten years is a great run. I sure would like to know your secret. Friends and family with taste, probably.

Or no friend/family gatherings in late December 😁

Do them late November and you’re safe usually 😏

At approximately 22:32UTC, Mariah Carey caught and compromised me to a permanent end as I was sipping a pint in my local pub. I almost wish I was listening to the pub owner's friend, whose Saturday night performances make Phoebe Buffay sound like Taylor Swift.

Double Carey'd!

I'm already out but I walk into the Kings Plaza to use the restroom and what do I hear? Stupid Mariah Carey. :grumpy:
 
No, seriously.

TB
Nice try, Satan.

Can confirm

I didn't sign up, but I had a questionable run in at the grocery store previously with what sounded like a cover. But today was pretty fitting as I had a drive by from a bike taxi playing the original tune.
 
I've just been Carey'd by the Santa sleigh that goes about the streets! It's a volunteer group that has santa on a sleigh being towed by a 4x4, and the kids can go out and see him.

I heard it coming, and there was nothing I could do but laugh at the comedy value of how I was yeeted from this years' competition. :D
 
Since i've been out since nov 23rd, i've started counting.

Count so far: 23 times i heard the song. This is ridiculous. How am i supposed to survive this game when i'm bombarded with that song.

Note, i don't listen to the radio at home nor in my car.
 
Every morning assembly this week has been prompted by AIWFCIY. If I wasn’t already out I would be by now.

As much fun is it to play the game, it’s also as much fun that my little one loves the song, so in future year I’ll let her know the drill and we can have fun trying to avoid the sonf together.

Because it ain’t actually a bad song. There I said it. Pretty much anything on modern radio is junk, at least MC can carry a tune.

Edit: it’s on the big screen now. MC is hot. Would.

And she doesn't even care about the presents underneath the Christmas tree.
