"Hitmaker" is favoured by UK tabloids
Cliff Richard looked delighted as he announced his newest album, Music... The Air That I Breathe, which will be released next month in honour of his 80th birthday. The Lord's Prayer hitmaker, 79, turns 80 on October 14, with the new album due to be released two weeks later on October 30.

Always an issue to know which song to reference with that one, although "The Lord's Prayer hitmaker" caused me to smile in a manner best described as 'wry'. As did the redundant mention of his age next to the bit about how old he'll be on his next birthday.
