URBAN RENEWAL: Like the Beatles owning the top five songs on The Billboard Hot 100, this is a record that will be difficult, if not impossible, to ever break. The latest hit by Keith Urban has taken the longest time from a track's debut week on Hot Country Songs to its first week at No. 1. For "You Look Good in My Shirt" (Capitol), it's not a matter of how many weeks it took to achieve pole position or even how many months. The song moves into first place four years, one month and four weeks after making its debut on the chart.

To be fair, "Shirt" first charted as a track from Urban's "Golden Road" album. The song wasn't being worked to radio as a single, but received enough unsolicited airplay to appear on the tally for one week, entering and peaking at No. 60. As a track from Urban's 2008 extra-tracks edition of his "Greatest Hits" album, a re-recorded version of "Shirt" returned to the survey this year, on the chart dated June 14. "Shirt" is now in its 14th chart week, counting that lone seven-day period from 2004.

"Shirt" is Urban's eighth No. 1 on Hot Country Songs and his 19th chart entry. He made his first appearance on this list the week of Aug. 28, 1999, with "It's a Love Thing." From "Thing" to "Shirt," his chart span is now nine years and one week.

Here is a recap of Urban's No. 1 hits:

"But for the Grace of God," one week (2001)
"Somebody Like You," six weeks (2002)
"Who Wouldn't Wanna Be Me," one week (2003)
"You'll Think of Me," two weeks (2004)
"Days Go By," four weeks (2004)
"Making Memories of Us," five weeks (2005)
"Better Life," six weeks (2005)
"You Look Good in My Shirt," one week to date (2008)
