‘Barbie: The Album’ Breaks U.K. Chart Record with Three Top 5 Singles

Barbie continues to make waves, dominating not only the box office but also the music charts.

Barbie: The Album, released by Atlantic, has clinched the top spot on the U.K.’s compilations chart. Additionally, three tracks from the album have soared into the national singles chart’s top 5.

These tracks include Billie Eilish’s “What Was I Made For,” climbing 10-3 with a remarkable 71% week-on-week increase in chart sales via Interscope, Dua Lipa’s “Dance The Night,” rising 15-4 with an impressive 86% surge in chart sales via Warner Records, and Nicki Minaj, Ice Spice, and Aqua’s “Barbie World,” ascending 20-5 with a phenomenal 115% boost in chart sales via Atlantic/Capitol/Republic.

This achievement marks a historic moment as no film soundtrack has ever claimed three top 5 singles simultaneously in the U.K.

Aqua celebrates a remarkable week with two top 40 appearances. The Margot Robbie-starring film featuring “Barbie World,” which samples Aqua’s former U.K. No. 1 hit “Barbie Girl,” secures the Norwegian pop outfit their first U.K. top 5 position in 25 years, since their 1998 track “Turn Back Time.”

Barbie: The Album’s success isn’t limited to the U.K.; it also claims the No. 1 spot in Australia, becoming the first soundtrack since “Encanto” to top the ARIA Chart.
