Production

The song was the first to be composed for the film, and its composers sought inspiration from "Rock-a-bye Baby" and Norwegian lullabies.[4] It was written before Wood was cast.[5]

International versions

edit

As happened in Moana with a Tahitian,[6] Māori[7] and Hawaiian version,[8] a special Sami dubbing was made specifically for the movie, given the inspiration it took from Sami culture, with the song "All is Found" being performed by Norwegian singer Eva Jeanette Iversen with the title "Gávnnat Buot".[9][10][11] Norwegian-Swedish composer Christine Hals, who had previously taken part in the composition of the soundtrack for the movie Frozen, writing the lyrics in Old Norse for the song "Heimr Árnadalr" and performing kulning for Beck to use it in his score, returned in the sequel to voice Queen Iduna in the Norwegian dubbing, singing the Norwegian version of the song with the title "I Elven Finnes Alt/In The River There Is Everything".[12][13][14][15]

The film features a version of the song played over the end credits, performed by American country singer Kacey Musgraves. Musgraves recorded her version of the song in Nashville, Tennessee. The song was released on November 15, 2019, as part of the Frozen 2 soundtrack. In most dubbings of the film, Musgraves' version is played during the end credits.

Musgraves' rendition of the song offers a more stripped-down and folk-inspired interpretation compared to the original, which is sung by Evan Rachel Wood as Queen Iduna. Adding to the enchanting arrangement, Grammy Award winning mandolinist and singer-songwriter Chris Thile, accompanies Musgraves' version with his masterful mandolin playing and harmonizing vocals.

There are six versions of the song in other languages.
