Elvis Presley’s music lives on -- and continues to set records in Britain -- taking the No. 1 position on the country’s singles chart.

The weekly singles hit parade -- first started in Britain in 1952 -- reached its 1,000th week Sunday with Presley’s rereleased 1959 hit “One Night” claiming the milestone No. 1 position.

By storming to No. 1, “One Night” became Presley’s 20th No. 1 hit on the British charts -- a record in itself.
