Everybody, everywhere is playing this song WAY too much, especially Japan.

When Japan get obsessed, they really get obsessed.

Well then they really need to let it go.

Doesn't exactly strike me as a baseball song.

Yakyu (Japanese baseball) is a bit different. They exchange flowers before a game, and give flowers for hitting a homerun.

Sorry for the repeat posts - ANN and/or CloudFlare having its daily hiccup again (every morning about 6-7am - website always return "internal error," probably some daily system reconfiguration or something).

Mods, please delete the extra repeats. Thank you.

The same happened to me when I was trying to add a mod comment to another thread. Confused

True, but it's so appealing to so many people that this is what happens.

With Let It Go being so massively popular worldwide, I don't see the repeats and covers of this song ended any time soon...

... I could've sworn I heard "Arino" in the chorus. That cannot have been just me.

Needs to stop. It really needs to stop. I'd hear it once a day if not more on my three month visit.

You are correct it's Ari no mama de instead of Let it Go.

The lyrics conversion was good, but the lip synching was not... That's what happens when you sing something from another language. Frozen does not sound good in Japanese.

Well, if the Japanese like it won't be my reason for liking it. I'm sick of the song now. Hell, even my 13 yr old niece "hates" the song and the movie. But will they let it go? Nooooooooo.....the haters will make folks like it all the more. May they reminisce this junk in their 60s.
