Mariah Carey is set to re-release her hit track, All I Want For Christmas Is You.

The singing diva first released the Christmas hit in 1994, and to celebrate it turning 30 years old, she will re-release the track this Christmas.

To cement the announcement, she has re-created the song's original single cover, showing her dressed in a Santa-inspired jumpsuit, trimmed with fur.

She revealed the photo on her Instagram account, alongside the caption, "While it is definitely not time to listen to Christmas music yet ‼️ I wanted to share a glimpse of #MerryChristmas30 with you! A homage to the original album cover, here is the cover art for two of the four new All I Want For Christmas Is You physical singles... available for pre-order now."

The single originally appeared on the album, Merry Christmas, which sold 15 million copies. The All I Want for Christmas Is You single reportedly took just 15 minutes to write and generates an estimated $600,000 (£459,000) per year in royalties for the 55-year-old star. The single has sold over 16 million copies, is Mariah's biggest-ever hit and the best-selling Christmas single by a female artist overall.

In November, the five-time Grammy Award winner will go on tour for the holiday season, visiting 20 cities across the US.

The album is now available for pre-order in gold cassette and seven-inch vinyl record.
