This marked the group’s third career No. 1 album, and their first chart-topper since Black & Blue peaked at No. 1 for two weeks back in December of 2000. Their Millenium album also topped the Billboard charts in 1999.

The album’s lead single, “Don’t Go Breaking My Heart,” has been nominated for a 2019 Grammy Award for “Best Pop Duo/Group Performance.” This is the pop group’s eighth career Grammy nomination.
