For years, Chevy Chase's Clark Griswold was the champion of holiday exterior illumination when he wrapped his home in thousands of Christmas lights for Christmas Vacation. Since the 1980s, though, we have had a few technological advances in the area of Christmas lights. A few years ago, Miller Brewing Co. synced some lights to Trans-Siberian Orchestra's "Wizards of Winter" and people have been beefing up their displays ever since. The most recent home display features a marvelous performance of "Let It Go" from Disney's Frozen.
The video comes from listentoourlights.com, and it is one of the better light performances around. The centerpiece is the front yard that contains two large trees and some smaller decorations. Huge snowflakes on the house illustrate a "storm" backdrop as they "fall" to the ground. The cactus in the window kind of threw me off, though.
Either way, it is a terrific display for fans of the movie or those fond of Christmas lights. Check it out below.
Frozen's soundtrack was recently named the best-selling album on the Billboard 200 chart for 2014. It beat out releases by Sam Smith, Taylor Swift and Jason Aldean. The effort spent 13 weeks at the No. 1 spot, making it Disney's longest, best-selling soundtrack ahead of The Lion King.
This year has not been great for record sales, but Frozen was the first album to hit the platinum mark for 2014. Swift's 1989, Ariana Grande's My Everything and Aldean's Old Boots, New Dirt also surpassed 1 million sales. Smith's In the Lonely Hour is expected to join the club before year's end.
Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez won the Oscar for Best Original Song for "Let It Go." The pair dedicated the song to their children.
"This song is inspired by our love for you and the hope that you never let fear or shame keep you from celebrating the unique people that you are," Kristen told her children.
