it's dead singers season!
Want immortality? Record a Christmas album and hope it becomes a classic.
I mean, you never hear Bing Crosby, Perry Como or Burl Ives on the radio anymore, except at Christmastime. (Almost included Andy Williams, but he's still alive . . . )
One day a few years ago, I was in a store, the radio was tuned to an oldies station, and a Carpenters song came on. A young woman, in her 20's, said to her friend "It sounds like Christmas!"
Sad that such good music is only heard once a year, isn't it?
