'Frozen' Director Jennifer Lee Apologizes for "Let It Go" Madness: "I've gone from 'Thank you' to 'Sorry!'"

Yes, the people behind Disney's Frozen knows that your little Olafs and Annas just can't stop singing the movie's big hit "Let It Go," and yes... Jennifer Lee is sorry. In a new interview, the acclaimed director admitted that she's gone from accepting praise from parents to apologizing for the song's, well, longevity.

"A year ago, I'd meet people who, when they found out who I was, they'd say, 'Oh, we love the songs! We sing them all the time,'" Lee told The Hollywood Reporter as a part of the annual "Women in Hollywood" issue. "Now they're like, 'Yep, we're still listening to those songs. I've gone from 'Thank you' to 'Sorry!'"

"Let It Go" is, indeed, the song that kids across the country cannot let go. Led by the massive film success of Frozen, which has grossed over $1 billion worldwide, "Let It Go" has become a massive hit for both Disney and the track's singer, Idina Menzel.

"Let It Go" lasted for 33 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100, eventually peaking at No. 5 in the height of Frozen-mania. The song also became the No. 21 song of the year on the charts, surpassing the likes of One Direction, Sia, Jessie J and Maroon 5.

The song also won the Oscar for Best Original Song earlier this year and is nominated for a GRAMMY and Golden Globe.
