Salonga is widely recognized as a "Disney Legend" for providing singing voices for two Disney princesses. Through the RIAA, the single "A Girl Worth Fighting For" has been certified Gold, "Reflection" certified Platinum, and "A Whole New World" certified 2× Platinum. She has logged two top 10 albums on Billboard's Classical Crossover Albums chart. In 1990, Salonga scored her first entry on the Official UK Singles chart with "The Last Night Of The World" (a duet with Simon Bowman) peaking at No. 81. In 2008, the Philippine Association of the Record Industry (PARI) honored her with the prestigious Dangal ng Musikang Pilipino award, recognizing her remarkable achievements.
