“Golden” from Netflix’s smash animated movie KPop Demon Hunters is No. 1 for an eighth week on the U.K. Singles Chart on Friday (Sept. 26), and equaled a long-standing record as a result.
The song — credited to HUNTR/X and voiced by EJAE, Audrey Nuna and Rei Ami — is now tied for the longest-running No. 1 single for an animated act. The Archies’ “Sugar Sugar” also ruled on the U.K. Singles Chart for eight weeks back in 1969, while “We Don’t Talk About Bruno” from Disney’s 2022’s Encanto achieved seven weeks. Additional songs from KPop Demon Hunters also chart this week with Saja Boys’ “Soda Pop” (No. 5) and “Your Idol” seeing success (No. 6).
