Once, Twice, Three Times For Sugarland

Monday we delivered the good news that Atlanta rapper-producer-label executive Akon was named the top pop artist of 2007 by industry staple, Billboard magazine.

Today even more hometown hurrahs are in order. Country duo Sugarland has scored its third No. 1 single from its latest, multiplatinum CD, “Enjoy The Ride.” First there was “Want To,” then “Settling” and now it’s “Stay” atop the Mediabase/Country Aircheck Singles chart.

And the bonus for Sugarland’s Jennifer Nettles and Kristian Bush is that the video for the spare ballad also tops CMT.com and CMT Mobile’s listing of the 20 most popular country music videos streamed at those two mediums in 2007.

What do you think has given “Enjoy The Ride” such staying power? What in particular is affecting about “Stay”? As you’re contemplating your comment, watch the “Stay” video below from YouTube:
