In other words, the man can sing.
The scene is reminiscent of cheesy music videos of the era and is one of the films highlights.
And I think thats part of what makes it so brilliant in the movie.
[Laughs] Theyre like, Kristoff is really going through it!
Its so funny because it makes sense.
Because those songs from the 80s, theyre not making a joke.
But in those moments of those videos, it was a more innocent time.
It was the Kristoff and the Kristoff harmonies, and then the Sven background and the Sven background harmonies.

[Laughs] Yeah, its chock-full in that particular song.
I love that Kristoff is a Disney leading man with a sensitive side.
And thats what this song really expresses, is sort of his soulfulness.
Hes there to support her.
I think we really need to hear men saying that to women right now, culturally.
And then at the end of the movie, shes like, Im sorry that things are so crazy.

And he meant it.
He just felt it in the moment.
Its not that the other proposals were failures.

And I think he spoke from the heart at the right time.
I was like, How are they going to get a mountain man to sing a song?

[Laughs] Thats the irony of it, though, is that thats not what hes angling for.
Hes just there to support her.

Yes, I guess he is, technically.
Its definitely not a position that he ever was anticipating or had the ambition to have.
So maybe the words would have to change if we did that song.
Frozen 2is in theaters now.
