Written by husband and wife songwriting team Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez, who have penned some of the most memorable music in Disney animation history, Let It Go has become an international phenomenon. The track, full of stomping piano chords, emotive strings and soaring vocals, details Elsa’s emancipation from the expectations of her life to take on much more courageous and powerful stance.

Lyricwise, it touches upon the notion of Elsa’s journey of self-discovery and acceptance, with the message to “Let it Go” advocating a freeing from all of her preconceived worries.

Let It Go has become something of a worldwide sing-along favorite and can be heard everywhere from Disney park rides and Broadway performances of Frozen, to flash-mob vocal renditions and a famous parody by Jimmy Fallon and Idina Menzel. The track has also charted highly in places including the US and the UK.

All in all, Let It Go is a special, powerful and emotionally deep track that has transcended the realms of the film to become an international phenomenon–all thanks to the beautiful vocals and show-stealing performance of Idina Menzel.
