Forbes noted:
The people can’t get enough of Elvis Presley. The King has been dead for coming up on half a century, but his music remains hugely popular. His name appears on charts all around the world regularly, and, bit-by-bit, some of his most successful songs and albums continue to reach notable milestones.
Presley’s 'ELV1S 30#1 Hits' makes it to a new, very special number this frame. The compilation has now lived on the U.K. albums tally for 250 weeks.
'ELV1S 30#1 Hits' marks the singer’s first title to hit 250 frames on the list of the most-consumed albums and EPs in the country. It has ranked as his longest-running win for some time now, and it keeps helping the legend reach landmarks he’s never seen before–even posthumously.
This time around, 'ELV1S 30#1 Hits' lifts one space. The set improves from No. 61 to No. 60 as it hits 250 weeks on the competitive tally.
'ELV1S 30#1 Hits' is counted among Presley’s 13 No. 1 albums in the U.K. The collection debuted atop the weekly ranking and spent its first two periods on top. Since then, it’s spent a total of a dozen turns inside the top 10 and hundreds more somewhere on the 100-spot roster.
Only one other release by Presley has managed triple-digit weeks on the U.K. albums chart. The '50 Greatest Hits' reached the ranking two years before 'ELV1S 30#1 Hits' dropped in 2002. That set–another collection of his most beloved songs–has now lived on the roster for 150 turns.
The '50 Greatest Hits' nearly helped a late Presley reconquer the U.K. albums tally. The compilation opened at No. 12 before quickly working its way into the top 10 in the earliest days of the new millennium. It didn’t reach its peak of No. 2 for more than 17 years, as it returned to the list in the runner-up space in 2017.
