We just can’t let it go when it comes to the hit song from Disney’s Frozen by Idina Mendzel.

We’ve seen it performed by marines, by Robbie Williams in the delivery room, and now it’s been revealed as van drivers’ sing-a-long tune of choice.

A study of the musical preferences of UK van drivers has found that 92 per cent of them like to belt out a tune on the way to work and, for 28 per cent, their song of choice is the empowering ballad Let It Go.


The research, carried out by business insurance site constructaquote.com, polled 1,839 adults aged 18 and over who are currently employed as van or lorry drivers.



And not only did the Disney show tune come out on top, Beyonce’s Single Ladies and Carly Rae Jepson’s Call Me Maybe also made the top 10. Lols.

Here’s the full top 10:

Let It Go – Idina Mendzel (28%) Happy – Pharrell Williams (24%) Living On A Prayer – Bon Jovi (19%) Rolling In The Deep – Adele (15%) Don’t Stop Believing – Journey (13%) Beyonce – Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It) (10%) Starship – Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now (8%) The Killers – Mr Brightside (8%) Meatloaf – Bat Out Of Hell (6%) Carly Rae Jepson – Call Me Maybe (4%)

Best. Mix-tape. Ever.

Three quarters of the drivers questioned also admitted they’d been caught out belting out a big number at the traffic lights. Awks.

As for why Let It Go came out top, the guys at constructaquote have a theory: ‘The fact that Let It Go by Idina Mendzel emerged as the most popular sing along song came as no great surprise,’ says CEO Lyndon Wood.

‘From the finding that many of the van drivers polled are heavily influenced by the music preferences of their families, one can only assume that many of their children are huge fans of Disney’s Frozen, and they have become rather accustomed to the tune themselves. I know I certainly have!’

Yeah, it’s the kids’ favourite. Sure, we’ll go with that.

And, for a little inspo, here’s those marines with their moving rendition of Let It Go.
