The Royal Collection(2030)

Looking Through the Windows is the second soundtrack album by American singer-songwriter Frosty. It was released on June 20, 2030 under Virgin Records. It is the soundtrack for the movie Golden Star, in which Frosty co-stars in. The album features music that is supposed to accompany the film. Recording took place from March to April 2030. The album features a variety of music styles, including alternative, jazz, electropop, and soul.

The album went on to become a commercial success, debuting at and peaking at number 2 in the US, and peaking at number 1 in eight countries worldwide. It was also a critical success, as critics praised Frosty's vocal delivery on the album, as well as the sophistication and diversity of the music on the record.

The album spawned two singles. The first of which, Star, went on to become Frosty's biggest hit of all time in the US, peaking at number one for 10 consecutive weeks. Not only was the song a commercial success, it was a critical success as well. Star went on to become one of the most iconic songs of all time in pop culture. The second single Bad Boy was released eight months later due to the success of The Royal Collection. In an interview, Frosty revealed that No Matter What was going to be released as the third single, but the idea was scrapped after it took so long to be able to release Bad Boy.

## Background and release

After Frosty's success with soundtrack singles in the past such as Drive Me Crazy (2024), Dance the Night Away (2025), Secret (2026), and his successful soundtrack album What's His Name, Virgin Records urged Frosty to record his own solo soundtrack for his upcoming movie Golden Star. Frosty agreed, enlisting a team of writers and producers to help create the record.

In a 2045 interview, Frosty revealed that he had learned a choreography for several songs before the album was released, specifically "I'm So Curious", "Show Guys", "Power Up", "Bad Boy (Pt. II)", and "Psycho", in order to prepare for the movie. However, only the choreography for "Show Guys" was shown in the film. In addition to "Show Guys", "No Matter What" was featured in the film, while "Step On Up" was featured in the credits. The choreography for "I'm So Curious", "Bad Boy (Pt. II)", and "Psycho" would go on unseen for years, while Frosty performed "Power Up" live at the The Greatest Show World Tour. In addition to this, Frosty learned a new choreography for "Bad Boy", "Dine In", "Jesus Risen/Love is Love", and "Star" specifically for the Black Blood World Tour.

The song "Star" was not originally planned for the soundtrack. It was originally planned to be released as a B-side of Get It Together, which was going to have a big maxi-single release to help promote the single, due to concerns that the single would not fare well since so many people had already bought and heard the song. However, Frosty's team convinced him to release it as its own single, because they believed the song could be a hit on its own. Frosty was against the idea at first, because he did not want to release a stand-alone single, but he eventually decided to put the song on the album and release it as the lead single, as he was conflicted about which song to release as the lead single and he believed "Star" could solve the problem.

## Music

Looking Through the Windows is a very diverse record which encompasses a variety of musical styles, including electronica, hip hop, electro-funk, R&B, sophisti-pop, synthpop, trap pop, jazz, baroque pop, minimal pop, and house music. Lyrically, the album deals with themes found in the movie.
