It takes away from Elsa's vulnerability, but it makes her that much more powerful, which fits with the Danish lyrics. Heiberg Rosenberg probably has the deepest voice of any of these singers.
Danish version (Lad Det Ske ) performed by Maria Lucia Heiberg Rosenberg. Füredi has one of the best voices of them all.Ģ. This has the slight drawback of making the lyrics less about Elsa's feelings, but they are just so stunning that I can't fault them for that. Much more emphasis is placed on snow and ice in the Hungarian version than in any of the other versions I've found. Yet they have that same icy beauty that I found so enamoring in the Polish version. Almost no lines have anything whatsoever to do with the English lyrics. The Hungarian lyrics are probably the most freely translated. Hungarian version (Legyen Hó ) performed by Niki Füredi. Harkens back to the gorgeously operatic singing in Sleeping Beauty.ģ. Not to say that one is better than the other, I'm just pleased to hear operatic singing in a Disney movie. Maybe it's because it's in Italian, the traditional language of opera, but she seems to me to have a more operatic voice than most of the singers, who are more Broadway-esque. The Italian lyrics convey both her relief at finally being able to be herself and a just bit of resentment. We don't see a lot of that in the movie, but I would imagine somewhere buried beneath all that fear and self-loathing is just a smidgeon of anger at having to pretend to be something she's not. The lyrics for the Italian version are VERY freely translated they have little to do with the English lyrics, but I like them because they convey something that I don't think any of the other versions (including the English) do: Elsa's bitterness about having to hide who she is. Italian version (All'alba sorgerò ) performed by Serena Autieri. Her voice isn't *quite* as good as the top four, which is why this version is only number five, but I have to say the Polish lyrics are some of the best.Ĥ. There's a sort of icy beauty about them that most other versions don't have. They deviate from the English lyrics quite a bit, but that doesn't matter because they are just so damn good. Łaska has a fantastic voice, but the main reason I love this version so much is the stunning lyrics. Polish version (Mam tę moc ) performed by Katarzyna Łaska. Good version and an amazing voice, but the rather humdrum lyrics keep me from placing it higher on the list.ĥ. They're good, and they capture the spirit of the original lyrics well, but they're a little too on the nose for my liking (the part where she sings about building her castle while she builds it is a good example.)
The reason the Dutch version is not higher up is because the Dutch lyrics are not so awe-inspiring. Verkaik (who also provides Elsa's German voice) probably has the best voice of anyone on this list. Dutch version (Lat Het Gaan ) performed by Willemijn Verkaik.
Frozen song in spanish lyrics free#
The translation is a little more free than some of the others, but it's still beautiful, and Ms. Russian version (Otpusti i zabud ) performed by Anna Buturlina. Sahari has a very belt-y voice, which doesn't quite convey the same vulnerability as Ms. The lyrics are again very similar to the English, but as the title implies, more emphasis is placed on Elsa finally feeling free, which I like. Latino Spanish version (Libre Soy ) performed by Carmen Sahari. Menzel's, maybe not quite as powerful but beautiful nonetheless.Ĩ. The Hebrew lyrics are very similar to the English ones, translated faithfully to fit the language. Hebrew version (La'azov ) performed by Mona Mor. She belts it out with almost as much gusto as Idina Menzel.ĩ. I haven't been able to find the translated lyrics for this version, so I judged it entirely off Ms. Thai version (Ploy Mun Pai ) performed by Gam Wichayanee. Thank you for your hard work, it is much appreciated!ġ0. I also want to thank the people who uploaded the different versions to YouTube, and those who kindly provided English translation of the lyrics. It's certainly exposed me to some singers I probably wouldn't have heard of otherwise! I've also included the names of the singers, in case you are interested in looking up their other works. I've included the titles of them all, and I've written them all in Latin script, even if that particular language is not normally written in Latin. I don't really care if they differ drastically from the English lyrics I judged them by how much I liked them on their own. I judged by not just the quality of the singers' voices, but the translation of the lyrics. As "Let It Go" is far and away the best song in the movie, I'm especially interested in its various non-English versions.Īfter listening to many, many different versions, I've compiled a list of my ten favorite non-English versions. I have, in particular, become interested in the many different language versions of the songs. No doubt like many people on this spot, Frozen has become my new obsession.
