'Batman' is an album for the 1989 film Batman by musical artist Prince. As a Warner Bros. stablemate, Prince's involvement in the soundtrack was designed to leverage the media company's contract-bound talent as well as fulfill the artist's need for a commercial (if not critical) revival. The result was yet another multi-platinum successful cross-media enterprise by Warner Bros., in the vein of Purple Rain. The album was placed #1 on Billboards album chart for six consecutive weeks. It sold nearly three million copies in the United States alone.
