‘Frozen’ Earns 10th Week at #1, Ties ‘Lion King’ for Most Weeks at #1 for Animated Film Soundtrack

It may be the Spring season but the Billboard 200 Albums chart is still feeling a little chilly due to the force that is Frozen .

For a 10th nonconsecutive week , the soundtrack to the hit Disney film holds the #1 spot on the chart with sales of 133,000 copies in the week ending April 13, which is only an 11% drop from last week’s 149,000 copies.

Other good news for the soundtrack is that the album’s cumulative sales also climb past the 2 million mark, as its additional 133,000 copies bring its to-date sum to 2.1 million.

It now serves as one of just 11 albums to have spent at least 10 weeks at #1 since the chart started using SoundScan’s point-of-sale data on May 25, 1991.

Four of those 11 albums also happen to be soundtracks: Frozen , Whitney Houston’s The Bodyguard (20 weeks at #1), Titanic (16 weeks) and The Lion King (10 weeks).

In addition, Frozen now ties The Lion King for the most weeks at #1 for an animated film soundtrack. Take a look at this week’s Top 10 list below:
