China Ripped off 'Let it Go" from 'Frozen' for its Olympic Song

Beijing recently won the bid to host the 2022 Winter Olympics and it's already a shit show wrapped in a disaster. Despite the slogan "Joyful Rendezvous upon Pure Ice and Snow," the mountain that many of the outdoor events will take place on has no snow. They are going to rely almost entirely on man-made snow. This is a bold and…unconventional move, but maybe it will work? We'll have to wait and see.

At the moment, there are bigger problems than the logistics of how this Olympics is even going to work: China ripped off Disney's Frozen by creating an official Olympic song that sounds almost exactly like the hit song "Let it Go," as sung by Adele Dazeem.Go ahead and compare and contrast. China's version, called "The Snow and Ice Dance" is up top, and "Let it Go" is here:

That's pretty similar! When reading the stories about this I was a little skeptical. Sure, maybe there are some similarities, but I highly doubt China would rip off the freaking song from Frozen. The one that 95 percent of this planet has heard ad nauseam, I said to myself. I'm here to say that I was wrong, friends. As soon as I listened to both, it was blatantly obvious. Just to be safe, the New York Times, which also quoted some YouTube commenters, has a more technical breakdown than "Come on! It's so obvious!"

Seriously though, it's pretty obvious. Maybe they should have picked an older, more relevant song.
