Still The Most Top 10 UK Hits

The Official Charts Company UK recently published the ranking of the most successful artists in the U.K. based on how many top 10 singles they have charted, and it’s a healthy mix of legendary rockers, pop icons who have been around for decades, as well as some stars who are still in their prime.

Elvis Presley leads the way with an astounding 76 top 10 hits in the U.K. He’s not only in first place, he’s also the only act to hit more than 70 Top 10's, and that accomplishment may remain his and his alone for a long time.

1. Elvis Presley - 76 
2. Cliff Richard - 68
3. Madonna - 63
