Following Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande’s showstopping performance at the 97th Academy Awards, the soundtrack to Wicked is soaring up the album charts, with the CD and vinyl each returning to the top 10 of Amazon’s charts.

The album, which was released in October, features 11 tracks from the film. It’s available as a one-disc CD or two-LP vinyl. The album’s closer is “Defying Gravity,” which Grande performed alongside Erivo (sans green makeup) as the opener for the Oscars. The film won two awards for production design and costume design.

Given the many, many merch collaborations released ahead of the film, it’s no surprise that Target gave the Wicked soundtrack an exclusive pressing, featuring a pink and green vinyl.

The double-LP Target-exclusive edition features a two-tone design, with a pink and green Glinda and Elphaba colorway on each record. Target also released an exclusive CD of the album, featuring a mini poster and pink or green spine on the jewel case.

The soundtrack album’s closer is “Defying Gravity,” performed by Cynthia Erivo featuring Ariana Grande. Erivo’s performance of the closing track in the film was singled out by Rolling Stone’s David Fear, who wrote, “It is not just the song in which Elphaba breaks bad, but the one in which she finally breaks free. And when Erivo nails that moment and rides into Oz’s history books on a broomstick, for a split second you feel like there’s no place you’d rather be than riding alongside her. Not even home.”

Along with Erivo and Grande, the film stars Jonathan Bailey, Michelle Yeoh, Ethan Slater, and Jeff Goldblum. Wicked was directed by Jon M. Chu, known for Crazy Rich Asians, In The Heights, and the Step Up franchise. The sequel, officially titled Wicked: For Good, arrives on Nov 21, 2025.
