By crowning the UK album chart for the 10th occasion, the famous rock band made one of the top five chart acts of all time. Madonna and the Rolling Stones have the same success, so U2 “only” needs to surpass the achievements of Elvis Presley and The Beatles. Among the single singers, Flo Rida US rapper seemed to have entered the chart with his latest success, Right Round.
According to the Official Chart Company, the Irish band U2 has to top the chart for a further four times in the future in order to reach the same record as was achieved by Elvis Presley. The all-time record held by Mr Presley means 15 number ones. The second in the row, the ‘60s teenage rock band called The Beatles, scored 11 times on the chart. Note that U2’s first success came 16 years ago: that was the first time when they topped the chart with the debut of their album called War.
