The soundtrack takes a bow in the top 10 on six album charts: Soundtracks (No. 1), Vinyl Albums (No. 2), Indie Store Album Sales (No. 2), Top Album Sales (No. 3), Top Current Album Sales (No. 3) and the Billboard 200 (No. 8). On the latter list, the set marks Charli’s third top 10, following BRAT (No. 3 in 2024) and CRASH (No. 7 in 2022).
Charli got involved with the project after she got a call from Fennell at Christmastime in 2024. “I read the script and immediately felt inspired so Finn Keane and I began working on not just one but many songs that we felt connected to the world she was creating,” she earlier stated in a press release announcing the album. “After being so in the depths of my previous album (BRAT) I was excited to escape into something entirely new, entirely opposite.”
Concurrent with the album’s debut, a number of its songs dent the Billboard charts. “House,” featuring John Cale, debuts at No. 30 on Hot Rock & Alternative Songs and No. 19 on Hot Alternative Songs. “Dying for You” debuts at No. 9 on Hot Dance/Pop Songs and No. 13 on Dance Streaming Songs. “Chains of Love” enters at No. 87 on the Billboard Hot 100, No. 109 on the Billboard Global 200 and No. 158 on the Global Excluding U.S. chart. And, “Always Everywhere” debuts on the Billboard Global 200 (No. 191).
