It’s always slightly disappointing to hear an artist sing a song from their back catalogue and realise that their voice is no longer what it once was. Mariah Carey fans, though, need not worry, as she’s just rolled back the years to deliver an effortless, note-perfect performance of All I Want For Christmas Is You.
