For those that wish to see it, man it just makes me a little upset for her, she knew she could do it live, and look how effortless it looks to her here. nerves really are a huge factor.
Or, she just can't sing this song every night as portrayed in the film. That's a hard song to belt night in and night out, and you can bet she did a ton of takes before they found one suitable for the film.

Well She hasn't been singing the song every night, and I think that was part of the problem (practice makes perfect and all that). Of course they did tons of takes for the film, she even said that. But this performance on the Tonight show was a day after the oscars, and she is signing so clearly and effortlessly,it wasn't her voice that was the issue it was the nerves.

It also helps that the key in this version is a half-step lower than the Oscars performance, but that doesn't change that she sounds relaxed, engaged, and phenomenal in this one. So glad that Idina Menzel and Let It Go have a Jimmy Fallon version now.

Still that high note however, and honestly in some sections here she hits higher than her oscar performance.

You know, though, it's a darn shame that Cristophe Beck didn't get a nomination for best score.
I havent enjoyed a score from a film like that in years, I agree with you. return to arendelle and conceal don't feel are among my favorites

Steven Price's score for Gravity was absolutely worthy of its win.

And I'm not saying that it wasn't. I am saying that Beck I think has been a bit unfairly overlooked when it comes to handing out praise for Frozen. The Lopezes' acceptance speech was one of the few times I've heard someone mention his contributions as the composer in regards to what made the film great.

I don't think it's been unfairly overlooked. It's a solid score that serves the film well, but there's nothing truly special or memorable about it. The best moments are beats from the Lopez family's music, but there isn't anything new, incredibly original, or particularly memorable that will go down as a defining score of the year. Honestly, I thought his work in Frozen, again while solid, was inferior to that of his work in Paperman.

You want to talk about an overlooked score of 2013?

M83's score of Oblivion. Say what you want about the film (I enjoyed it), but the score was outstanding, just like Daft Punk's score in Tron: Legacy.

Idina got the cover of Billboard -

Idina Menzel has made history on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

The singer's rise into the top 10 with "Let It Go" makes her the first person with both a top 10 hit and a Tony Award for acting.

Menzel's Oscar-winning "Let It Go" (from the film "Frozen") jumps 17-9 on the Hot 100 dated March 22. Its ascension comes in the wake of the tune's performance by Menzel on the Academy Awards (March 2).


Menzel is a Tony Award winner -- the highest accolade for theater on Broadway -- for her performance in "Wicked." She won the 2004 Tony Award for best actress in a musical. She was previously nominated for featured actress in a musical in 1996, for "Rent."

The Tony Awards have eight acting categories, four each for musicals and plays, respectively. The acting categories are: best actor, best actress, best featured actor, and best featured actress.

The Billboard Hot 100 chart, which ranks the week's 100 most popular songs in the United States, began in August of 1958. The first Tony Awards were held in 1947.
