idina kim menzel // well, it’s been many years of highs and lows and ups and downs, and beautiful moments like rent, and wicked, and then years of obscurity, and no work, and frustration. and you get dropped from enough labels and told countless of times a broadway singer can never cross over. you’re too expressive, you’re too dynamic, you’re too presentational, you have too much vibrato. (…) what kind of artist are you? (…) well, who are you? who. are. you. and the answer to that question at the age of 43 is a resounding “i don’t know”. it’s the irony of being given a song all about accepting who you are and then unleashing your power, your ability to be different and extraordinary without apologizing for it. i’ve been given the gift of this amazing song “let it go”, at a time in my life, a crossroads, when, i was finally learning to let it go. when i made the decision to stop trying to describe who i am, and follow my heart, my gut, my truth.
