Golden Road is is the third solo album by Australian country singer Keith Urban, released in 2002.

It peaked at #2 in the Billboard Hot Country Albums chart, and spent 108 weeks on the chart. It also reached #11 on the Billboard 200.

The album produced four singles on the Hot Country Songs charts. In order of release, these were "Somebody Like You", "Raining on Sunday", "Who Wouldn't Wanna Be Me", and "You'll Think of Me". While "Raining on Sunday" (which was originally recorded by Radney Foster on his 1999 album See What You Want to See) reached #3 on the country charts, all the other singles reached Number One; "You'll Think of Me" also crossed over to the Adult Contemporary charts, where it reached #2. "You Look Good in My Shirt" also peaked at #60 on the country charts without being released to radio; the song was re-recorded and re-released by Urban in 2008 and is now in the Top 30 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts.

Also included on this album is a cover of Lord David Dundas' 1970s pop hit "Jeans On".
