King not No. 1: Britney Spears and Elvis Presley

London, July 12 (Reuters): Elvis Presley’s That’s All Right, re-issued to mark the 50th anniversary of his first single, was kept off the top spot in the British charts yesterday by R & B sensation Usher and Britney Spears.

Presley’s song, recorded on July 5, 1954, had been tipped to go to number one but could manage only third place, the Official UK Charts Company said.

Last Monday, radio stations across the world celebrated one of the defining moments in rock ’’ roll by playing That’s All Right.

Usher’s Burn, the American’s second British number one, stayed in the top spot for a second successive week and Spears was in second place with Everytime.
