Earlier this month, Disney released a new version of the ubiquitous hit song "Let It Go" on its YouTube channel. The "Behind the Mic" version of the Frozen song incorporates 25 different languages for your inner child and inner polyglot.

Beyond the fact that this compilation is undeniably hypnotic even if you don't know a word of, say, Hungarian, Mandarin, Serbian, or Castilian Spanish, this adds another chapter to the interminable shelf life of a song that has inspired covers in seemingly every genre and granted songwriter Bobby Lopez membership in the rare EGOT club.

Of course, if you really want to set yourself and/or your child down the primrose path, here is a video with all of the versions of "Let It Go" in all the different languages, back to back to back to back.
