Frozen director says 'sorry' to parents for 'Let It Go'
Song has had over 380 million listens on YouTube
It's over a year since Frozen obliterated the box office, but with its release on DVD and VoD comes the frightening prospect of its immortality.
Most parents were initially thrilled by the Disney film, but that delight soon turned to gentle rocking and moaning as they were forced to watch it again and again with their children, particularly its main song 'Let It Go', which has been listened to over 380 million times on YouTube.
"A year ago, I'd meet people who, when they found out who I was, they'd say, 'Oh, we love the songs! We sing them all the time'" Frozen director Jennifer Lee told The Hollywood Reporter. "Now they're like, 'Yep, we're still listening to those songs.' I've gone from, 'Thank you,' to, 'Sorry!'"
