    Eddie has 2 small girls. Small girls, right now, are generally infatuated with this movie, and this song in particular. I know, because I have 2 small girls myself. This song is like crack to them...it's insane.

    This was just Ed having some fun, and some people are WAY overthinking it. Relax.

    ...and he wasn't trying to sing it like the original version. Clearly he was cramming it into the It's Ok tag. He's done this with a lot of tags in Daughter and other songs over the years.

    "Oh my god he totally botched the high note!!!"
    He wasn't trying to hit it.

    As said in another thread, I don't even know the song, haven't seen the film.

    But "lowering themselves" and "seeking attention"?

    I dunno...seems like much ado about nothing, and strikes me as bordering on meanness and pettiness.

    Stop holding rock musicians up as your heroes and you'll never be disappointed again.

    It's a band. They do what they do. Get over it.

    I think its cool. I have a little boy and Im always singing all the ridiculous shit we see over and over on Disney Junior. If I were in a band, this would be tough not to do.

    Ha this is so funny. Seriously, when you have a little girl, Frozen really does becomes a part of ever day life - trust me! Ed's no different to the rest of us! :) Secretly, I've actually grown to love the darn film now... ;)

    I want him to bring back "Baby Beluga". my daughter loves that song.

    Now you want to talk about horrible... On Daughter, Ed actually tagged "My Heart Will Go On" or whatever that terrible Celine Dion song was called from Titanic. Knoxville, TN 1998

    For the record, their version was NOT a cover, it was simply a tag.

    This! Some people on here need to relax!

    My daughter loves it too. It wasn't the best singing by Ed, but I truly appreciate the fact that he most likely did that for his kids! And really, who cares?

    "Lowering themselves"???? Really???

    Would you say Bruce is "lowering" himself to play Royals by Lorde?

    I think this being "news worthy" also shows the relevancy of Eddie and Pearl Jam. I have two daughters who love Frozen. I said to my 8 year old "you hear Eddie Vedder covered Let it Go"? And she sarcastically replied "who is Eddie Vedder"?
