Congratulations to Keith Urban! The Aussie country star has shot straight to the top of the American Billboard charts with his latest album, Defying Gravity. The album, which features the new single “Kiss the Girl,” was inspired by Keith’s wife Nicole Kidman and her support through Keith’s recent battle with alcoholism.
“It’s an incredible feeling to have a No. 1 record,” Keith said in a statement. “But equally moving is knowing that this particular record, that comes from such a joyous, loving and hopeful place, is connecting with so many people.”
It’s a massive effort when you consider he beat out new releases from Prince, Diana Krall, and Flo Rida to take the number one possie. It’s Keith first number one in the US, and one that’s well deserved!
