Lin-Manuel Miranda is surprised by the international popularity of Encanto’s “We Don’t Talk About Bruno.”
The song, which appeared in the animated Disney movie, has become a viral sensation and top trend tune on music charts around the world.
About the success of “We Don’t Talk About Bruno” during an appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” on Monday night, Lin-Manuel admitted that he did not predict that the tune would be such a hit.
“Group numbers are never the hit. It’s the ballad or the song of evil. There’s always something different,” he said. “But the group numbers are what the theater kids like and no one else likes because they sing it at their cast party.”
Later in the conversation, host Jimmy joked that “We Don’t Talk About Bruno” had become a “problem” for many families.
As part of a sketch, Lin-Manuel offered fans a fictional drug called “Encantix” to help combat “cravings” for listening to the soundtrack.
