Keith Urban List of 26 Top Ten Hit Songs
71
Another reason for Keith to celebrate!
Besides being a dad to two daughters and being married to actress Nicole Kidman, Keith Lionel Urban also has made a name for himself in the Country Music industry. He's come a long way and has made his mark with sensational hit after hit.
As of today KU has eleven #1 hits. With his newest single making the Top Ten on Country Music charts, "Without You" has become his twenty-fourth top ten hit. That's an amazing triumph for a man who along the way hit some rocky patches but yet has achieved so much.
As a Keith Urban fan of the past 13 years I'm honored to be able to share this hub. I first met Keith when he was promoting his first solo CD "Keith Urban". He was performing in a parking lot for the grand opening of a local shopping center.
There were roughly 30 people in the audience, some obviously not familiar with his music due to their expressions but they caught on quickly. He entertained us to the max and gave his small crowd of fans an astounding concert and left us wanting more. By song number two the seats were empty and the crowd was on their feet dancing away. I still have my autographed "Keith Urban" CD from that night and still haven't washed my hand that he shook!!
I've been hooked ever since. We all have to start somewhere and move on from there. Keith has moved on with gusto! This hub is to commemorate his outstanding goal of achieving 26 hits that have made the Top Ten. For a country music artist that's not an easy task unless you have the gift and needless to say the charts speak for themselves.
KU the thunder from down under has an aura about him that radiates when performing. I feel that his talent and music is under-appreciated. I will continue to make noise to be sure he's appreciated by millions of fans!
This is my second hub on KU and I plan on sharing more because I have a strong feeling there will be more to share. Congratulations and thank you to the man who just keeps on giving his fans the best of him.
Update: Congratulations to Keith for being inducted into the Grand Ole Opry on April 21, 2012. I say "It's about time!"

Quote from KU regarding songwriting.....
"Songs are like children
in that you have your differences
like the brainy one & the delinquent one
but you love them all the same."

Great hub for a great singer. How lucky are you to have met him? I would advise, however, washing that hand at some point ;) Voted up and interesting.
I am a huge fan of Keith Urban. Love all of his songs, especially Somebody Like You, Raining On and Stupid Boy. Can you please do a hub on country singers comparing to the present generation Taylor Swift and all?
