Taylor Swift‘s back-to-back weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with her Toy Story 5 song “I Knew It, I Knew You” got us thinking: Could the Disney/Pixar film’s soundtrack album also find success on our charts?
On the new Billboard Pop Shop Podcast, Katie & Keith discuss just how high the Toy Story 5 album could climb on the Billboard 200 next week, considering no previous Toy Story soundtrack has ever hit the top 40 of our flagship albums chart. Only the first two Toy Story films saw their soundtracks hit the chart, with the initial Toy Story soundtrack peaking at No. 94 and Toy Story 2 reaching No. 111.

Also on the show, we’ve got chart news on how Olivia Rodrigo makes a big splash as she scores her third No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 with You Look Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love and has four songs in the top 10 on the Hot 100. Plus, Ariana Grande unveiled the 12-song track list for her July 31 album Petal over the weekend during her Eternal Sunshine Tour stop in Inglewood, California. And we remember late music executive Clive Davis, who died this week at age 94 and whom the Pop Shop Podcast chatted with back in 2023.
