Late icon Whitney Houston achieves her 25th top 10, and first since 2003, on Billboard‘s Adult Contemporary radio airplay chart, as Pentatonix’s virtual duet “Do You Hear What I Hear?,” featuring Houston, jumps from No. 15 to No. 9 on the survey dated Dec. 21.
Houston, who died in February 2012, originally recorded the standard, written in 1962, for the all-star 1987 album A Very Special Christmas. The new version marks her first AC top 10 since “Try It on My Own” reached No. 10 in May 2003.
