 Nashville, TN (Capitol Records) - Keith Urban's fourth studio album, Love, Pain & the whole crazy thing, will spend its third consecutive week atop Billboard's Country Album Chart, as well as it's third consecutive week inside the Top 10 of Billboard's Top 200 Album Chart, both accomplishments that mark firsts for the Grammy-award winner. The album debuted at No 1 upon its release on November 7th, which followed another record, the highest debut single since the inception of the singles chart for 'Once In A Lifetime.' Love, Pain & the whole crazy thing's second single, 'Stupid Boy,' also seems to be attracting attention. The song is the No 1 most added single at country radio for the last two weeks and has already claimed No 28 on the R&R Country Singles Chart. 'Country radio has been a huge supporter of Keith,' said Capitol Records Nashville, Senior Vice President, Promotions Jimmy Harnen, 'and the early response to the new single is fantastic." Of 'Stupid Boy,' written by Sarah Buxton, Deanna Bryant and Dave Berg, Keith said, 'A friend of mine played me this song while on my bus and I thought it was amazing. Given that it was already on Sarah's album it didn't occur to me that I'd be able to record it. But I loved it so much I figured I'd just ask her anyway. Thankfully she said yes and I'm grateful she did. I can definitely relate to the guy in this song.' For more official Keith Urban news and information go to www.keithurban.net.
