    With how big this song is, I truly cannot imagine what it was like when it came out.

    Did it take time for it to start getting played nonstop at Christmas, or did people jump on it immediately?

      it was a pretty big success and heralded as a already classic christmas song, but it didnt reach its highest heights until 25 years after its release when it finally hit number 1 (breaking the record for longest time between release and number 1)
