Common elements of music are pitch (which governs melody and harmony), rhythm (and its associated concepts: tempo, meter, and articulation), dynamics, and the sonic qualities of timbre and texture. The word derives from Greek μουσική (mousike), "(art) of the Muses".... Music is like the 4 elements. Slow or fast like the wind! Clean or dirty like the earth! Smooth or hard like the sea and HOT like the fire! Music is also like us. Like a living human being who has senses, emotions and passions! When you combine all of this, when you transform your feelings into notes, only but only then you can achieve ... Perfection !!!

Let It Go
Hi Profile Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

The snow glows white on the mountain tonight
Not a footprint to be seen
A kingdom of isolation and it looks like I′m the queen
The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside
Couldn't keep it in, heaven knows I′ve tried

Don't let them in, don't let them see
Be the good girl you always have to be

Conceal, don′t feel, don′t let them know
Well now they know

Let it go, let it go
Can't hold it back anymore
Let it go, let it go
Turn away and slam the door
I don′t care what they're going to say
Let the storm rage on
The cold never bothered me anyway

It′s funny how some distance makes everything seems small
And the fears that once controlled me can't get to me at all
Up here in the cold thin air I finally can breathe
I know I′ve left a life behind but I'm too relieved to grieve

It's time to see what I can do
To test the limits and break through
No right, no wrong, no rules for me, I′m free

Let it go, let it go
I′m the one with the wind and sky
Let it go, let it go
You'll never see me cry
Here I stand and here I′ll stay
Let the storm rage on

My power flurries through the air into the ground
My soul is spiraling in frozen fractals all around
And one thought crystallizes like an icy blast
I'm never going back, the past is in the past

Let it go, let it go
Can′t hold it back anymore
Let it go, let it go
Turn my back and slam the door
Here I stand and here I stay
Let it go, let it go
The cold never bothered me anyway

Standing frozen
In the life I've chosen
You won′t find me
The past is all behind me
Buried in the snow
Let it go, let it go
The cold never bothered me anyway

Let it go, let it go
And I'll rise like the break of dawn
Let it go, let it go
That perfect girl is gone
Here I stand in the light of day

Let the storm rage on
The cold never bothered me anyway

Overall Meaning

The song "Let It Go," written by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez, was introduced in the 2013 Disney animated film, Frozen. The song becomes an anthem for the main character Elsa, who has the power to create ice and snow but has been hiding it, living a life of isolation due to fear of hurting those she loves. In the beginning, the verses describe the setting and Elsa's situation "The snow glows white on the mountain tonight." Elsa feels trapped, alone, and scared, only finding solace with her powers expressed through the chorus "Let it go, let it go."

The second verse describes how her newfound freedom allows her to start living her life. She puts aside her fear, and she's finally comfortable with who she is. She no longer cares about the expectations of others, and she's done with concealing her powers. The climax of the song represents Elsa's transformation, where she unleashes her powers and shows the world what she's capable of. The chorus repeats as she declares her independence, and the bridge reinforces the idea that the past is behind her. The final verse ends in a bittersweet note, as Elsa finds some resolution and closure, accepting her new life with her newfound courage.

You now face the world with confidence, standing tall and strong

Let the storm rage on
Let your emotions run their course

The cold never bothered me anyway
Nothing bothers you anymore, and you are free to live your life as you see fit
