* {{Leitmotif}}: The five-note theme representing Elsa's magic is first heard in a major key when Elsa and Anna play as children. After the accident, the motif is transposed into minor keys for the rest of the movie until Elsa thaws the ice at the end, where it returns to a major key.

* LyricalDissonance: Among other examples, ''The Book of Mormon'' has a jubilant-sounding CrowdSong about cursing God ("Hasa Diga Eebowai") and ''Frozen'' has a SelfEmpowermentAnthem about running away from life's problems ("Let it Go"). The latter actually started out as a VillainSong until Idina Menzel's sincere performance inspired a complete restructuring of the film to make Elsa a hero.
