The Stranger Things 5 soundtrack debuts in the top 10 across seven Billboard album charts (dated Feb. 14), including No. 1 on Vinyl Albums and No. 2 on Top Album Sales.

The set boasts oldies heard in the fifth and final season of the hit Netflix series, including Michael Jackson’s “Rockin’ Robin,” ABBA’s “Fernando” and David Bowie’s “Heroes.”

The compilation takes a bow in the top 10 on Soundtracks (No. 2), Top Current Album Sales (No. 5), Top Rock Albums (No. 5), Top Rock & Alternative Albums (No. 6) and Indie Store Album Sales (No. 8). It also enters at No. 32 on the overall Billboard 200.

Only one album sold more than Stranger Things 5 in the latest tracking week, and that was Don Toliver’s new studio album OCTANE, which debuts at No. 1 on Top Album Sales with 31,000 copies sold (his best sales week ever).
