John Williams' iconic Jurassic Park theme has finally reached #1 on the classical music Billboard Charts. This milestone comes 22 years after it was released as a single to accompany the theatrical debut of the Steven Spielberg directed thriller. It was originally released as a cassette and CD single, two items that are almost as extinct as the dinosaur. The theme leapt to the top of the charts with a miraculous 205 percent gain.

Over 3,000 copies of the single were sold in the week ending June 14, according to Nielsen Music. To date, the Jurassic Park theme has sold a whopping 189,000 downloads. This happened the same week the long-awaited sequel Jurassic World opened to record breaking box office numbers. The film was released in preview showings last Thursday, and pulled in $209 million to be come the biggest ever opening weekend in both the U.S. and Canada, beating previous record holder Avengers: Age of Ultron.

Jurassic World now holds the biggest ever global debut as well, pulling in $316 million in record time. It should be noted that John Williams' Jurassic Park isn't the only one to hit the Billboard charts. A cover of the song by The Piano Guys has come in at #2 on the classical music charts, right behind the original with 2,000 sold. Michael Giacchino's Jurassic World score album has landed at #6 on the Soundtrack charts with 4,000 traditional albums sold. And it is currently #126 on the Billboard 200. The full original Jurassic Park soundtrack album hit #38 on the Billboard 200 charts way back in 1993, and has sold 863,000 copies to date.
