"We Don't Talk About Bruno" has knocked Adele's "Easy on Me" out of the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

The viral track from Disney's "Encanto" is now the biggest song in the country and only the second song from a Disney movie to reach No. 1 on the chart. The only other No. 1 song was "A Whole New World" from "Aladdin" in 1993.

"We Don't Talk About Bruno" is also the first No. 1 hit for Lin-Manuel Miranda, who wrote all the songs on the "Encanto" soundtrack.

The tune also set a record for having the most credited recording artists ever on a No.1 song. It features the voice of six different "Encanto" cast members, including Carolina Gaitán, Mauro Castillo, Adassa, Rhenzy Feliz, Diane Guerrero and Stephanie Beatriz, as well as the rest of the "Encanto" cast.

The "Encanto" soundtrack is also sitting in the No. 1 spot of the Billboard 200 chart, which it has occupied for three weeks. This means it's also the first time a Disney song and album have ever held both top spots on these two charts.

In addition to "We Don't Talk About Bruno," there are six other "Encanto" songs currently on Billboard's Hot 100 chart. These include "Surface Pressure" at No. 9, "The Family Madrigal" at No. 20, "What Else Can I Do?" at No. 27, "Dos Oruguitas" at No. 36, "Waiting on a Miracle" at No. 48 and "All of You" at No. 82.

"Encanto" premiered in theaters Nov. 24 and arrived on Disney+ Dec. 24.

Disney is the parent company of ABC News and "Good Morning America."
