Kelly Clarkson

Kelly Clarkson collects her second No. 1 on Adult Pop Songs, as "Already Gone" ascends 2-1. Clarkson spent five weeks at the summit with "Behind These Hazel Eyes" in 2005.
The song's coronation marks the third consecutive leader on the survey for the RCA Music Group record label. Daughtry led for two weeks with "No Surprise" in September, and Kings of Leon followed with an 11-week reign with "Use Somebody." The only prior label to link a trio of toppers in the chart's 13-year history was Arista (now an imprint distributed by the RCA Music Group), which monopolized the top spot for 39 straight weeks with Avril Lavigne's "Complicated," Santana's "The Game of Love," featuring Michelle Branch, and Lavigne's "I'm With You" in 2002-03.

"Already Gone" marks the third Adult Top 40 No. 1 for the song's co-writer, Ryan Tedder, who co-authored Timbaland's "Apologize," featuring his band OneRepublic, and Leona Lewis' "Bleeding Love."
