American singer Idina Menzel has released four studio albums, fourteen singles and one live album.

She produced and released her debut album, Still I Can't Be Still, for Hollywood Records in 1998. One single from the album "Minuet", made the Radio & Records CHR/Pop Tracks chart at number 48 in October 1998. Her second album, Here, was released independently by Zel Records in 2004. Her third solo album, I Stand, was released on January 29, 2008. It includes many new songs, including the lead single, "Brave", the title track "I Stand", and a song released on EP, "Gorgeous". The album debuted at number 58 in the Billboard 200, making it the first solo album by Menzel to make the charts. There are five versions of this album: the original version, the special limited edition, the iTunes version, the Barnes & Noble edition, and the Borders edition. Menzel wrote many of the songs on her album. Menzel voiced the character of Queen Elsa in the Disney-animated film Frozen, which was released on November 22, 2013. Her performance received praise from film critics, frequently focused on her performance of "Let It Go". She was invited to perform "Let It Go" at the 86th Academy Awards in March 2014, where the song won the Academy Award for Best Original Song. When John Travolta announced her before she sang the song, he incorrectly introduced her as 'Adele Dazeem'. The slip-up became a popular Internet meme. On June 17, 2014, during a concert at New York City's Radio City Music Hall, Menzel confirmed she was working on a Christmas album that would contain original material to be released later that same year. In that concert, she performed one of the original tunes from the album, "December Prayer". Her latest album, Holiday Wishes, was released on October 14, 2014.
