The song-writing stars are hardly strangers to success, having won Tonys, Emmys, and Grammys for their work on hit Broadway musicals like _Avenue Q,_ _The Book of Mormon_, and the children’s TV hit _The Wonder Pets._ But it was their soundtrack for _Frozen_ that sold 2.3 million copies and won them a (first) Oscar. That made Robert Lopez a member of an elite group who have scored an EGOT — Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/73516/robert-and-kristen-anderson-lopez-we-think-they-should-count-again/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/73516/robert-and-kristen-anderson-lopez-we-think-they-should-count-again/"},"headline":"Robert and Kristen Anderson-Lopez: \"We Think They Should Count Again\"","datePublished":"2014-04-24T22:06:31.000Z","dateModified":"2026-07-21T07:15:14.304Z","description":"This successful husband and wife team won't \"Let it Go\" to their heads","url":"https://time.com/73516/robert-and-kristen-anderson-lopez-we-think-they-should-count-again/","keywords":["TIME 100","Frozen","Let it Go","TIME 100","Musical"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt8b43f02a70db7872/69868c2136176086bd90ba3e/lopez_1280.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Harry Swartout","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/harry-swartout/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt8b43f02a70db7872/69868c2136176086bd90ba3e/lopez_1280.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez \"just had to laugh.\"","caption":"The songwriting duo are responsible for \"Let it Go\" being stuck in your head for half a year now.","creditText":"","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-100/","name":"TIME 100"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/73516/robert-and-kristen-anderson-lopez-we-think-they-should-count-again/","name":"Robert and Kristen Anderson-Lopez: \"We Think They Should Count Again\""}}]}] ```
