FROZEN SONG AND LYRICS MOVIE
"Frozen Heart" opens the entire movie as a group of men sing while they work harvesting ice. It's a cute tune with some funny lines, but it's probably not anybody's favorite song.įrozen Heart: The first song in Frozen is an underrated tune because it's the one that actually sets the tone for the entire movie. It sort of works like a secondary love song, though it's played exclusively for laughs rather than to build romance in any meaningful way. The boundless enthusiasm Olaf has for something he knows nothing about, the heat of summer, is hilarious and the tune has the wittiest lyrics of any song on the Frozen soundtrack.įixer Upper: The final song to appear in Frozen is sung by the side characters the trolls. Olaf's childlike innocence might not work for everybody, but for those who would like to give Olaf a warm hug, the song is great.

Disney villains almost always get great songs to sing and if you pay attention to the lyrics, you realize that what Hans is really saying is that Anna's love is an opportunity that he can take advantage of. First, it's the love song, as the pair sing about how they're falling in love with each other. Love Is An Open Door: Sung by Anna and her new beau Hans, "Love is Open Door" is one of the more interesting pieces of music in Frozen because it fulfills two roles that we normally see songs have in Disney movies. However, it also shows us what Elsa wants, which is for all this to just end, showing how the sisters will conflict later in the story. In Frozen, that song is "For the First Time in Forever." It's mostly sung by Anna as she revels in the excitement of seeing the castle gates opened for the first time in years.

Earlier, when Elsa says that she is free, she means that she was free to be herself without the fear of not being accepted or hurting others. Elsa refers to depression as a curse, and curses are hard to get rid of. Now, I always cry at this part, because I can relate. Oh, Anna please you'll only make it worse! There's no escape from the storm inside of me Anna sees that fear makes it worse, and wants to avoid anything bad. What really gets me is when Anna said, "Don't panic". While Elsa only believes that she can harm people, Anna is looking at the side of Elsa that she herself cannot see. But Anna keeps trying to change Elsa's mind.
First Anna, then Elsa.Īnna knows that her sister is afraid. Okay, Let's break the Duet into two parts. Elsa sees that she has done damage to people's lives, and this is what really makes her decide to stay locked away, yet Anna is still persistent. I think that if Anna would've said this a bit differently, she could've avoided turning into ice, as this is what is almost Elsa's trigger. Just stay away and you'll be safe from me"Įlsa is saying that she doesn't want anyone else to get hurt (emotionally) because of her, so she's almost warning Anna to get away before something happens. Anna realizes the fear that Elsa is concealing, and not feeling, and is offering her support as a sister and friend. It is Anna's belief that she can help Elsa beat this sadness, this guilt inside of her. You don't have to keep your distance anymore"Īnna knows about Elsa's depression, but insists that she can lose her sister behind a barrier anymore. "You don't have to protect me, I'm not afraid! Now, with my interpretation, please think of Elsa's powers as depression instead. As one currently suffering depression, I can understand Elsa on different levels than others can.
My InterpretationI'm going to start out by saying that I am basically proud of Disney for coming out with a movie with a character, Elsa, as a metaphor for depression. You've kind of set off an eternal winter. Just stay away and you'll be safe from me You don't have to keep your distance anymore You don't have to protect me, I'm not afraid!
