This week, Ella Langley\u2019s \u201cChoosin\u2019 Texas\u201d<\/a> surpassed Mariah Carey\u2019s eternal holiday hit, \u201cAll I Want For Christmas Is You\u201d, as the longest-running No. 1 single on the Billboard<\/em> Hot 100. As of this writing, Langley\u2019s smash has spent 23 nonconsecutive weeks atop the chart, surpassing Carey\u2019s, which, last December, reached 22 weeks for a career total.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
