Merry Christmas Everyone is a popular song by Shakin' Stevens.
Written by Bob Heatlie and produced by Dave Edmunds, this was Shakin' Stevens fourth, and most recent, number one on the UK singles chart. It was originally going to be released in 1984 but was postponed a year because of the release of Band Aid's Do They Know It's Christmas.
It was Christmas number 1 in 1985; ever since it has been included on many top-selling Christmas collections and received airplay every Christmas. In 2007 the song re entered the UK top 30 and reached number 22 on the Christmas chart. This was due to the fact downloads now make up the UK singles chart, in past years this would have been impossible unless there was a physical re-release of the song.

UK number one single December 22, 1985 |
