Katy Perry might be headlining the—deep breath—Pepsi Super Bowl XLIX Halftime Show, but that’s not the only singing that will happen that day. After all, if singing isn’t the most important part of Super Bowl Sunday, then what is? Well, football, obviously… and commercials. Singing is up there somewhere, at least. Anyway, Idina Menzel and John Legend will be taking on some America-centric musical numbers before the game starts. Menzel will sing the national anthem, and Legend—who is fresh off of a Golden Globe win and Oscar nomination for his song “Glory” from Selma—will sing “America The Beautiful.”
Now, Idina Menzel being Idina Menzel, she’ll probably do a good job and the crowd will want her to do an encore, but we think she should resist the urge to pull out the crowd-pleasing “Let It Go” from Frozen. After all, that song has barely anything to do with football. Instead, we’ve decided to write some new lyrics for “Let It Go” that she can sing instead, and we think this could be a pretty big hit. Make sure to hit play on the YouTube video before singing along at home.
“Super Bowl,” to the music of “Let It Go” from Frozen.
The grass grows green on the field tonight
Not a footprint to be seen
A stadium of isolation
And it looks like I’m the MVP
The crowd is howling like this swirling storm inside
