Performed at the Oscars by Idina Menzel herself, “Let It Go” is one of the most successful original songs from a movie soundtrack in recent years. It beat out Pharrell’s “Happy”, U2’s “Ordinary Love”, and Karen O’s “The Moon Song” for the title. Perhaps what even made the performance more buzzworthy was the mispronunciation of Menzel’s name by John Travolta, quickly sprouting the meme #AdeleDazeem all over the Internet.
