The storyline of the film happened to shift dramatically when the song, "Let It Go," was written. The movie's songwriters Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson Lopez talk about the work that went into making the music.

Last night, Disney's "Frozen" took home the Golden Globe for Best Animated Film. It's a musical about a princess named Anna and her sister queen Elsa.

Elsa has a magical ability to create ice and snow , but she doesn't know how to control her powers. It's something she sings about in the song, "Let It Go."

That song and seven others in "Frozen" were written by Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez, who have also had a hand in penning the songs for, "Avenue Q," "The Book of Mormon," and the 2011 film, "Winnie the Pooh."

They recently joined Alex Cohen to talk about the songwriting process, and how the entire story of "Frozen," happened to revolve around the creation of, "Let It Go."
