[Every Monday, I'm going to be counting down my 52 favorite musical numbers from musical movies and TV shows. I might not like the full movie/show, but the number makes the list for various reasons: 1) I have to like the song, 2) the visual of how the number is performed is most likely unique or fun, 3) both song and visual mixes well to create an exciting or powerful number. So let's get to the next on the list.]
This is the second Anastasia song on this list, so I'll keep this short. This is the big, recurring number in the movie. It's a very haunting theme, which is understandable since it's a lullaby. The visuals match the haunting nature of the song, with spirits of her memory burst from the stained-glass windows. Sorry I couldn't find a high quality version, but apparently YouTube doesn't like keeping anything Anastasia (at least in English).

Musical Monday: Anastasia - A Rumor In St. Petersburg (#45).

It's Monday, so you know what this means! I really like this particular movie. I know it gets a lot of flak for being a Disney knock-off... and to be honest, I thought it was Disney for the longest time. I'm talking, of course, about Anastasia. There are a lot of fun songs in this movie. Probably the most well-known would be Once Upon A December. But I'm going for more of a catchy tune here. The song would be if you mixed in the big opening numbers from Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin (not including the narrator's song)... and coincidentally, this is the movie's opening number. I couldn't find the song with footage in English (every other language, though). But here's an audio file with the lyrics showing instead.
