U2 Poised For Chart History

U2 are poised to join the Rolling Stones, THE Beatles and Elvis Presley in the U.K. chart history books this weekend - their new album looks set to become their 10th number one.


No Line on the Horizon is expected to shoot straight to the top of the chart on Sunday (08Mar09), equalling the Rolling Stones' record.


But the Irish band has some way to go to become the most successful chart act - The Beatles lead the way with 15 number ones, followed by Elvis with 11.
