Ellen DeGeneres And Kristen Wiig Perform Horrible Cover Of 'Let It Go' [WATCH]

There have been a ton of great renditions of "Let It Go," the breakout hit from Disney's animated monster Frozen, but Ellen DeGeneres and Kristen Wiig absolutely destroyed the song recently on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

In the clip below, DeGeneres starts off by admitting that she's probably "one of the only human beings on the planet that doesn't know that song 'Let It Go.'" "I just know that the words 'let it go' are in there," Wiig jokes back. The talk show host then predicts that the duet will be the worst version out there before the pair break into a karaoke frenzy and butcher the popular tune, which won an Oscar for Best Original Song and has made Idina Menzel a household name (just not in John Travolta's house).

Frozen was released in November 2013 and since then, "Let It Go" fever has swept the music world. It's been covered by Demi Lovato, violinist Jun Sung Ahn and metal band Betraying The Martyrs. It's also been the basis for parodies with Batman's Mr. Freeze and TV characters from the 80s. Even Pearl Jam's frontman Eddie Vedder slipped the chorus into a live version of the band's song "Daughter" at the request of his daughter.

The Disney movie brought in $1.3 billion in worldwide sales, and recently the company announced that it would be replacing its Maelstorm ride at Epcot with a Frozen-inspired ride. "[The ride] "will take our guests to Arendelle and immerse them in many of their favorite moments and music from the film," the company's Chairman Tom Staggs wrote. The attraction is scheduled to be finished by 2016.
