Disney's musical sensation has reached a new milestone.

FROZEN has been named No. 59 in Billboard's 200 albums chart, dated April 11, with the soundtrack having just reached 4 million in U.S. sales. In addition, the album sold 6,000 in the week ending March 29 alone.

The film's hit Oscar Award-winning song, "Let it Go," placed in the top 10 Billboard Hot 100, and the album as a whole held the No. 1 spot on the Billboard 200 chart for 13 nonconsecutive weeks. With music and lyrics by Bobby and Kristen Lopez, the soundtrack is one of only 15 to sell 4 million since Nielson started tracking sales in 1991, with HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL as the most recent soundtrack to achieve such a distinction.

Frozen is a 2013 American 3D computer-animated musical fantasy-comedy film produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures. It is the 53rd animated feature in the Walt Disney Animated Classics series. Inspired by Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale The Snow Queen, the film tells the story of a fearless princess who sets off on an epic journey alongside a rugged iceman, his loyal pet reindeer, and a naive snowman to find her estranged sister, whose icy powers have inadvertently trapped the kingdom in eternal winter.
