The Christmas classic was co-written alongside Carey's then-writing partner, Walter Afanasieff. Though it has long been reported that the song only took 15 minutes to write, Carey later revealed to Parade that the time frame was a little bit longer than that.

Before dropping "All I Want for Christmas Is You," Carey had only released two albums and thought it was too early in her musical career to put out Christmas music.
