    Let It Go ‘Let it Go’ Lyrics Idina Menzel’s ‘Let It Go’ Lyrics 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 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 seem small And the fears that once controlled me can’t get to me at all 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 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 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 Demi Lovato’s ‘Let It Go’ Lyrics 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 The snow glows white on the mountain tonight

  • Sam Fischer & Demi Lovato New Single 'What Other People
    SAM FISCHER & DEMI LOVATO NEW SINGLE ‘WHAT OTHER PEOPLE SAY’ OUT NOW SAM FISCHER ANNOUNCED AS YOUTUBE’S FIRST ‘ARTIST ON THE RISE’ FOR 2021 Following the huge success of his global smash hit This City and recent project Homework, Sam Fischer has teamed up with Demi Lovato to release his new single What Other People Say out now via RCA Records. Listen HERE. Written by Sam before his single This City became a hit, it was a song he always knew would be a duet and was blown away when Demi Lovato became the perfect person to accompany him on vocals. Written about a feeling of being alone and not wanting to let people down, the pairing takes two different lives and perspectives and unites them in one message of human experience, emotion and togetherness, so they are alone with one another in the song. It is a truly special track with a powerful, moving and relatable chorus and is the next official single release for Sam since This City. Sam says; “What Other People Say is a confession, realizing how far away you can get from who you are in an effort to be liked. It’s about the pressures of society and how getting caught up with the wrong things can change you.” Demi says; “This song is a reflection on what it’s like to lose who you truly are in an effort to please other people and society. It’s why I wanted to make this song with Sam – ultimately it’s about two humans coming together to connect and find solutions to their problems.” Alongside the announcement of the single, Sam Fischer has also shared that he has been chosen as YouTube’s first ‘Artist on the Rise’ for 2021, which follows previous winners Mabel, Aitch, Freya Ridings, Mahalia, Beabadoobee and Celeste.

  • SONGS to SAVE the WORLD by the Official Unraveling Playlist by Elizabeth Norris
    SONGS TO SAVE THE WORLD BY The Official Unraveling Playlist By Elizabeth Norris 1. “Bulletproof” by La Roux: I love this song. The music is so uplifting. Whenever I’m faced with having to do something that seems impossible, this song makes me feel invincible. 2. “Skyscraper” by Demi Lovato: This is one of my guilty-pleasure songs. It’s upbeat, catchy, easy for me to sing (without sounding too off-key), and it’s about nothing being able to tear you down. 3. “Far from Over” by Rev Theory: The chorus says it all. When it feels like whatever I’m up against is far from over, I know I still can’t give up—I have to keep going until I turn the corner. 4. “Never Too Late” by Three Days Grace: I love the message of this song: No matter how the world changes or how hopeless the world seems, it’s never too late to turn things around. 5. “Bleed It Out” by Linkin Park: Every time I hear this song, I have the urge to get up and do something, and not just anything, but something that I know is tough. 6. “The Edge of Glory” by Lady Gaga: In an interview, Lady Gaga said this song was about your last moment on Earth, the moment of truth. To me that makes it about what you do with that moment. 7. “Not Afraid” by Eminem: I heard my first Eminem song in high school, and I was immediately hooked by how much he could say in just one song.
