Originally, I was planning to write an article about all the out takes from Frozen and my opinions on them. However, I kinda promised that article to another user, so I'm just writing this about "Life's too short"

Lyrics:
Anna: I came all this way today to give us a fresh start
But now that you’re like wow it’s all like warm in my heart
Elsa: I'm so glad you like it sis 'cause this is the real me
You have no idea how great it feels to be free
Anna: We've been falling out for way too long, so let’s forget who’s right
Elsa: And forget who’s wrong
Both: Okay!
Elsa: Why don’t you stay, there’s room for family in my court
Both: Cause life’s too short
Anna: To always feel shut out and unloved by the sister I long to know
Both: Life’s too short
Elsa: To never let you celebrate me, the true queen of the ice and snow
Anna: Wohohooo
Both: I never understood, but now I do
Life’s too short to miss out on a sister like you
Anna: So you’ll come back, then.
Elsa: Back?
Anna: To thaw the fjord, it’s frozen over, no one can get in or out?
Elsa: Oh.
Anna: Sooo....
Elsa: I don’t believe you!
Anna: What?! I just assumed that you would have to...
Elsa: That I'll shove on the gloves, that’s how your story ends?!
Anna: It does ! It's just like it was, except for we’ll be best friends
Elsa: So that’s in your plan to force me back in a cage
Anna: Whoa, whoa! Don’t get upset let’s get back on the same page
Elsa: Gee, thanks for coming up to see the place
And showing off your mastery of tact and grace, okay!
Run down the hill and spill my secrets, make a full report!
Bye-bye!
Anna: Wait!
Elsa: Cause life’s too short
Anna: There it is! The door you’d love to slam in my face!
You did well there for a spell, but now you’re back in the same place
Kick me out if you want, but I’m the only one who is
Not one hundred percent convinced the prophecy’s you!
Elsa: You can think whatever you want 'cause I don’t care
You’re a fool who married a stranger!
Anna: That is so unfair
Both: I swear I’m through with taking your unshaking sisterly support!
HAH! Life’s too short!
Anna: To let you treat the people down there just as coldly as you always treated me
Elsa: La la lalala laaaa
Both: Life’s too short!
Elsa: To listen to a reckless fool who only ever sees the things she wants to see
Anna: You don’t know me
Elsa: You have no idea
Both: What I've been through!
Because of you
Life’s too short to waste another minute
Life’s too short to even have you in it
Life’s too short
Anna: I've been so wrong about you
Elsa: You?! You've been so wrong about everything.
Anna: Maybe you are the prophecy!
Elsa: I am NOT the prophecy!
Why I like it:
A lot of people love the sister relationship in Frozen, but there are also loads who didn't feel it was very accurate. It just wasn't gritty enough. All their exchanges are usually quite formal and not that heated. For the First Time in Forever is great, but it isn't really heated. I feel Life's too short fixes this problem. It's an accurate portrayal of a sisterly argument. I just love it!
What's even better, is this song has the most HEART BREAKING reprise, exactly the sort of thing missing from the end of Frozen! I won't say too much about it because I only want to cover one song in this article, but it is amazing!
Thoughts?
