Shakin’ Stevens reached #1 on the UK charts with “Merry Christmas Everyone”. It was the Welsh singer’s fourth and final UK #1. Written by Bob Heatlie and Dave Edmunds, it was to be originally released in 1984, but was postponed a year so it would not clash with Band Aid’s “Do They Know It’s Christmas.”
In 2007 the song re-entered the UK Top 30 and reached number 22 on the Christmas chart which was only possible due to charts being influenced by downloads and not a physical re-release.
