“Do You Want to Build a Snowman?” full song:

Steven Vincent, Vice President Music and Soundtracks, Disney Channel, said, “We have a remarkably talented group who, in their approach to this cover song, kept the heartfelt beauty of the original but transformed it into a duet as an ode to friendship.” He continued, “They were asked to sing live with no pre-recording, so the session became like a big party with a group of friends singing their hearts out and having fun together to deliver a project that ultimately encourages young viewers to express their feelings, to participate in interactive ways and to share their creativity and talents.”

A weekend of related programming events include the affable snowman Olaf (the voice of Josh Gad) hosting the evening of new episodes (“Dog With A Blog,” “Girl Meets World,” “Phineas and Ferb” and “Wander Over Yonder”) on FRIDAY, JULY 18 (8:00-10:00 p.m., ET/PT); and a Saturday Sing-Along to songs from the “Frozen” soundtrack (“Do You Want to Build a Snowman?,” “For the First Time in Forever,” “Love is an Open Door,” “Let It Go,” “Reindeers Are Better Than People,” and “In Summer”), SATURDAY, JULY 19 (8:00-10:00 p.m., ET/PT) on Disney Channel.
