Stone recorded his song in 1989 under the stage name Vince Vance & The Valiants. The song topped the Billboard Hot Country Songs list several times in the 1990s. Carey released her song in 1994, topped the charts in 26 countries and reportedly earns tons of money every year with her Christmas song.
According to TMZ Stone now claims that Carey won the title All I Want For Christmas Is You should never have used. Stone has not filed a complaint about the song itself. The two songs sound completely different in sound and melody.
