A question for you Poptimists this fine December morn.

Who is the ultimate Xmas artist?

I imagine many of you will immediately think of Westlife or Slade. But I have a name for you, and that name is Dina Carroll. Remember her? You never EVER hear her music during the year. But come Xmas-time, suddenly she's everywhere. I've heard 'The Perfect Year' twice in 48 hours - once on The Hits TV, and then this morning in the West One Shopping Centre at Bond St tube.

Any other artists you can think of who make a reappearance for a month each December and then vanish for 11 months?

Hmm. So "Careless Whisper" isn't part of the A/C radio canon in the UK the way it is in the US, then? (I'm really asking, this isn't rhetorical.) Coz here, I think Wham! may still be better-known for "Whisper" than "Christmas."
