She also produced a new video and released it as a stand-alone CD single for the first time. According to Billboard, the song secured 45 million streams, 34 million radio plays and 27,000 digital sales in the past week alone. It is Carey's 19th number one hit in the Hot 100 - meaning she beat the record she already held as the most chart-topping solo artist. Overall she's second only to The Beatles, who had 20 songs hit the top spot. In a New York Times interview, Carey said of the number one milestone: "It's something my die-hard fans think about, and people that are really close to me are talking to me about it literally all year. "But I don't need something else to validate the existence of this song. I used to pick it apart whenever I listened to it, but at this point, I feel like I'm finally able to enjoy it."We did it ðŸ˜â¤ï¸ðŸ‘🎄🦋 https://t.co/Cp80uhYdI9
