Which artists have charted in the most calendar years on your chart?
I have two that have charted in all 16 years of my chart, including 2014 so far:
Britney Spears Rob Thomas (including Matchbox Twenty)
Despite this, Britney's only appearances in 2006 (And Then We Kiss), 2010 (3) and 2014 (Perfume, so far) were holdovers from the previous year.
Rob Thomas's only appearances in 2011 (Original Sin - with INXS, also a 2010 holdover) and 2014 (Gasoline and Matches - with LeAnn Rimes, so far his only 2014 appearance) were featured without top billing.
Also of note: Christina Aguilera has charted every year of my chart - except for 2005. Her only 2011 appearance - Moves Like Jagger - was feaetured with Maroon 5; similarly, her only 2014 appearance so far - Say Something - was featured with A Great Big World.

This is an interesting question.
My Top 5:
1) Madonna: 26 consecutive years: 1985 - 2010. First hit: Material Girl / Last hit: Celebration. Her only 2004 song (Nothing Fails) was a holdover from 2003.
2) Janet Jackson: 21 consecutive years: 1987 - 2002. First hit: What Have You Done For Me Lately / Last hit: Feels So Right. She came very close to continue her streak in 2003: Feels So Right left my chart December 15, 2002. She charted again in February 2004 with Just A Little While and continued to chart until 2010.
3) Prince: 20 consecutive years: 1985 - 2004. First hit: Raspberry Beret / Last hit: Call My Name.
4) Pet Shop Boys: 19 consecutive years: 1986 - 2004. First hit: West End Girls / Last hit: Flamboyant. No holdover during the 19 years. They didn't hit my chart in 2005 but returned in 2006 and charted every year after until 2014.
5) Mary J. Blige: 18 consecutive years: 1995 - 2012. First hit: I'm Going Down / Last hit: Feel Inside. Her first hit in my chart was actually Real Love in 1993, but she didn't chart in 1994.
Honorable mention: R. Kelly: 17 years consecutive years: 1994 - 2013. First hit: Bump N' Grind / Last hit: Believe That It's So. This streak it's still going on. I don't see anything from his current album charting but he he is rumored to be working on a new album and a Christmas album too.
This was fun.

Mine is Kylie Minogue (even with her time off recovering from breast cancer). But we all know my chart can be known for longevity

My favourite performers don't always release records every few years, and sometimes my chart looks a little fickle, with significant gaps between songs.
The most consistent performers have charted six years in a row:
Rihanna 2005-2010 FrankMusik 2009-2014 Lady GaGa 2009-2014 (with a couple of holdovers) Killers 2004-2009 plus Brandon Flowers solo 2010-11

Pretty sure it's Madonna and Kelly Clarkson.
Madonna 2003-2006, 2008-2009, 2012
Kelly 2003-2007, 2009-2013

Mmmmm, seeing as I change favorite artists as I change... food for lunch? lol Anyway, not many get to chart every year. Still, I am pretty sure it would be Tori Amos. Of the 19 (WOW!!) years I have been making charts, she might not have been in like 6 maybe or less. She is successful with me <3

This is an interesting question. Hmmm
I'll only quickly look up artists I know to have covered the spectrum of my chart, which includes 18 calendar years 1998-2015.
Alanis Morissette - charted across 16 years. 2011 was the first calendar year she didn't place a song in my Top 100. 2015 is the only other one (so far). Chantal Kreviazuk - within 16 years. 2008 was her first year without a single, followed by 2013. Madonna - within 16 years. She charted every year until 2013, where she was absent until just a few weeks ago. So nothing for 2013-14. Sheryl Crow - 16/18 years, charting nothing in 2001 and 2015 (so far). Sarah McLachlan - 15/18 years. Absent in 2011 and 2012-13.
I think those are really the only artists who have kept somewhat of a presence since I started my chart, though I am surprised by the results a bit. I wouldn't have expected both Sheryl and Sarah McLachlan to have had a song chart for as many years as they did. Plus, Chantal hasn't released an album since 2009 but she's appeared on my chart at least every year since except 2013.

Well, mine is probably a lot shorter than most of all of yours. I don't think anyone has been on my chart for 10 or more calendar years since I started doing the charts in the late 90s. Britney Spears comes into mind [but hasn't been on my chart since Circus and I forget when Circus came out. LOL]
Ashley Tisdale also comes to mind. She made her debut in '07, was on last year with You're Always Here. So I think she's been on a total of 7-8 years. And then there's Carrie Underwood.
This is a hard one to answer tbh.

Oh! I forgot to look up Britney and Christina, both of whom have probably charted in most years.

In terms of consecutive years on my chart, Mary J. Blige has the current streak. She has hit with at least one hit every year from 1992 to 2002, when my chart went on hiatus, and then again from 2006 to the present for a total of 21 years!
Overall, Elton John has the longest streak, with a hit every year between 1979 and 2002. Since my chart's return in 2006, he has missed in 2008, 2009 and 2014.
Between 2006 and now, Kelly Clarkson, Tim McGraw and Maroon 5 have been the most consistent acts after Blige, with Clarkson and McGraw missing only 2008 and Maroon 5 only missing 2014 (though Adam Levine had a solo hit -- neither "Maps" nor "Animals" made my chart).
Artists who have had impressive runs: Madonna charted every year in 1989 through 2002; Prince charted every year in 1983 through 1997; Janet Jackson in 1993 through 2002; Bruce Springsteen 2007 through 2015 with the exception of 2013; and John (Cougar) Mellencamp every year from 1981 to 1989 and 1993 to 1998.
