You know that catchy tune that’s been blasting on repeat in your home? Yeah, “We Don’t Talk About Bruno” is officially taking the spotlight, now landing at No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts. This lively track from Disney’s Encanto has become the biggest Disney hit since the mid-90s, overshadowing the beloved “Let It Go” from Frozen.
The song has racked up an impressive 29 million streams and 8,000 downloads this week alone—probably all thanks to the kids, right? The last animated Disney song to achieve such success was back when we were kids ourselves, with classics like “A Whole New World” from Aladdin hitting No. 1 back in 1993.
About Encanto
In case you missed it, Encanto tells the story of Mirabel, a girl on a mission to save her family’s magic, despite being the only one without any powers herself. The soundtrack, crafted by the talented Lin-Manuel Miranda, is filled with earworms that you can’t help but hum. The song revolves around Mirabel’s uncle Bruno, who has the power to see the future, but his gift scared everyone so much he had to disappear. Now, no one talks about him—until Mirabel sets out to find him.
A Fresh Take on Disney Soundtracks
What’s refreshing about this hit is that it’s not performed by a big-name pop star. Instead, it showcases the voices of the Encanto cast, including Sofia Lopez and Daniel Rodriguez. Speaking of soundtracks, the Encanto album just hit number 1 on the Billboard charts, marking a significant moment since Frozen II did it in 2019.
Box Office Success
Since its release on November 24, Encanto has grossed over $93 million in the U.S. and $222 million worldwide, making it one of the standout films during the pandemic.
