Once Upon a December is one of those songs that always, always causes me to tear up. The desire to remember being loved and cared for and happy, but only the recollection of a faceless voice singing a lullaby. 😭
@@g.g4761 I believe most anyone is able to identify with the feelings of wishing for a time and life different from the actuality of their existence, and the lonely grief that comes from asking, "What if?"
Me: “A song she’s already done? Eh hardly doubt she can up her previous one.” Me after listening to it: “Welp time to cry and repent for doubting her. This was BRILLIANT!!!”
This song is so beautiful and so sad... she thinks she's imagining a grand ball but she's really reliving her last memory of her family and her home...without even knowing she's dancing with her father and sisters... she doesn't even know why she's vaguely sad and it HURTS MY HEART! THIS IS SO WELL DONE!!! YOUR VOICE IS BEAUTIFUL!
I can’t help but sob at this song. That scene, it perfectly illustrates the bittersweet tale, the melancholy love and longing. A family’s love, frozen and cold in history, a story as framed in tragedy, just like that fateful night. Once, upon a December.
LYRICS: Dancing Bears Painted Wings Things I almost remember And a song someone sings Once upon a December Someone holds me safe and warm Horses prance through a silver storm Figures dancing gracefully across my memory Someone holds me safe and warm Horses prance through a silver storm Figures dancing gracefully across my memory Far away, long ago, Glowing dim as an ember, Things my heart Used to know Things it yearns to remember And a song someone sings Once upon a December
Anna all I can is holy crap. This song has been in my head for the past three weeks and now this cover is going to be living rent free in my head for a long time. Holy crap though, your voice is so beautiful
As always, Anna never fails to sound so soothing, sweet and absolutely wonderful in her songs! Every song i hear she covered, every theme she takes part in is completely flawless! Many years i've been a subscriber and am proud to say that that will never change! Beautiful work anna! Please do not stop letting us hear your amazing voice!
This came at the perfect time; I was just on the verge of a mental breakdown after a profoundly shitty day, week, year - whatever. But Anna's voice never fails to calm me down.
fun fact: i was named after this movie! ironic that, for the longest time, i hated it. all that aside, i got chills listening to this. like full-body kinda chills. it's an incredible cover!
"Once Upon A December" is one of my all time favorite Anastasia songs! and as always your performance of the song is just ever so delightful and fantastic Anna make no mistake about it, your vocals are truly sensational and first rate absolutely astounding work and Merry early Christmas to you!!!
Танцующие медведи, расписные крылья Вещи, которые я почти помню И песня, которую кто-то поет Однажды в декабре Кто-то держит меня в безопасности и в тепле Лошади проходят через серебряную бурю Фигуры изящно танцуют На протяжении всей моей памяти Кто-то держит меня в безопасности и в тепле Лошади проходят через серебряную бурю Фигуры изящно танцуют На протяжении всей моей памяти Далеко, давно Светящийся тусклый, как уголь Вещи, которые знало мое сердце Вещи, которые он жаждет запомнить И песня, которую кто-то поет Однажды в декабре..
Say what you want about the movie's historical accuracy (I watched it with a history nerd; the accuracy is atrocious), this song is written with liquid fire lyrics and icy chilling sound. ...which means it's a song of ice and fire! ... I'll see myself out.
this gave me goosebumps, I've always been a huge fan of Anastasia and i would sing this song when i was younger ALL THE TIME. You did an amazing job on this cover so now imma have it on repeat until i go to bed.
This song will always hold a special place in my heart after seeing Anastasia on broadway on a field trip in high school, and what an excellent rendition this is! Wonderful work as always!
This song never gets old for me so I will happily listen to in year round, hearing this is just the perfect snowflake on top of everything wonderful about winter. Well done.
OMG I performed this song with my choir as SSA piece for our winter concert and the harmonies LITERALLY resemble the version I sang especially for the "ah"s, listening to this was so nostalgic for me. Continue to bring such wonderful work to this platform as always Anna
I used to sing the original all the time while in my car. Once I had some friends in the car and one of them never heard me sing before and this song came on. By the time it was done, her mouth was dropped and asked "Where did that come from?". Such a great song and easy song to learn. This version is great! keep it up! :)
Anna's beautiful voice is one of many good things we don't deserve to have in the world but we still get it anyway. This was my grandfather's favorite holiday song and it means so much that you're singing it, especially when I'm trying to accept that he's no longer around anymore. Well done!
I listened to this cover from the day it was released but hadn't had time to comment, I really loved it, Anastasia is one of my favorite and heartwarming movies, and since she recently turned 25, I've been a bit nostalgic about this one, and your version current of Once upon a time gave me years of life, I love your work
Anna, you nailed it once again! Your covers are absolutely amazing, and your voice is just magical. Once Upon a December warms my heart every time I listen to it, and it reminds me of my Grandma and me, not because it's our favorite song or movie or anything like that; it just makes me think of her. Thank you, Anna.❤
My ten year old sister will sing this song for a recital tomorrow! We're both a big fan of you Anna, she'll be really happy to find out you sang a cover of this song.
But, then what would have save the Turks and Czars later? If this did not unfold, then later, the bolshevicks could try to come back and destroy everything and everyone this time, even if the Ottomans existed they would probably try to take some old-lost land, which could result in their destruction, now, you may Hate the Ottoman Empire, but to some it is the grandest empire to ever exist.
@@Mlppvzfan2 I hate no one. The czar and his family could have been sent to many countries and lived a happy life in exile. Murdering them in such a brutal fashion just made the new government look like monsters- which they were.
Anastasia is my favorite movie. My great grandmother had a vhs tape of it and would play it for me when I visited. I have a hard time listening to the songs now because she passed but it always reminds me of her. So thanks for the reminder of her ❤
Annapantsu you have such a beautiful voice. It’s not just the voice, it’s the way you use different ways to sing something that makes it more unique to you. Thank you and keep going !
1:05 I love this song so much, and the vocals that happen here are just 👌🏽it’s sooooo pleasing to hear!!! You did an amazing job on this cover!!!! As usual 👏🏽
I used this song to audition for my High School Choir. I was cut. But you did such an amazing job!!! Your talent is amazing and your music always makes me smile!! You my lady, is going to be the only thing that gets me through long school days and high school in general. Thank you for everything!
I love when you cover this song. Not only because it's my favorite song, but because you can compare it to the ones you've done in the past and see how much you've improved. You're voice sounds lovely, keep it up :)
Once Upon a December was the first song I listened to on this channel. It remains my favourite song. Thank you so much for reinventing this beautiful cover.
Imagine if she did “Unredeemable” from Spirited. It’s a Christmas movie, but not a Christmas song-it’s just a normal song that happens to be RIDICULOUSLY GOOD. Like, with those lyrics? Tears. Waterfalls. First note, and waterfalls.
I was literally just listening to the past two version of this song that Anna has done, and I wondered if she was gonna do it again this year! I guess I got my answer in the form of a masterpiece
Duuude, Anastasia is my childhood and I believe you absolutely nailed this. It gave me chills and I love it almost as much as the original, well done Anna.
Your magnificent voice always manages to surprise me. Not that I expected it to be bad or for the quality to drop, but it's just that it always hits in a unique way. It calms me down and makes me go along with contemplation with grace, but it also has the potential to shake me up, make me shiver, or even exhilarate. I don't know how to express this in words, especially in English. But it must be some word like "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious".

Geez I love this song so much and here I thought the original cover was amazing but this blew it out the park! The harmony and atmosphere so so amazing, it sends chills every time I hear it!!
Anna I don't know exactly how to put this. I grew up with some of these movies, and I've always loved their songs. However what you've done with them is amazing. You've brought me to tears so many times across your various covers. Keep at it.
I listened to the other one so much times I’m SO happy there’s another cover Literally shivers with this one if a beautiful snowy night could sing it would sound like this
I don't like Christmas music but I do like Anastasia and the title includes "December" so that has to count for something right?
Definitely counts. I'm so excited to listen
I loved your last once upon a December cover so this is just ngbsgbdthggsgh
I’ll call it an early Christmas present
REAL👊
Lol same
Its cool :D
YES. ANOTHER COVER OF THIS SONG.
I love that this is now a yearly tradition.
every December gets a new cover great idea
Could add a metal cover one year that would be cool!

LYRICS:
Dancing Bears
Painted Wings
Things I almost remember
And a song someone sings
Once upon a December
Someone holds me safe and warm
Horses prance through a silver storm
Figures dancing gracefully across my memory
Someone holds me safe and warm
Horses prance through a silver storm
Figures dancing gracefully across my memory
Far away, long ago,
Glowing dim as an ember,
Things my heart
Used to know
Things it yearns to remember
And a song someone sings
Once upon a December
Absolutely counts as a Christmas song you're all good. Amazing as always! 👌🏻
Not really but it is beautiful nonetheless.
I was very confused for a second but THE IMPROVEMENT? flawless! Here's to a new year filled with more Anna! See you next year!!
I can see myself playing this at a ball and Dancing the night away with my true love!😊
Невероятная песня, одна из моих самых любимых, и я удивляюсь, как с каждым годом Анна умудряется делать её только лучше 💛
This sounds so good. Nice job Anna 👍. The harmonies are so beautiful yet haunting somehow to me
I agree
You can't just drop a cover of my favourite song on me like that!!! This is epic!
This is straight up magical, I'm getting actual chills. The harmonies, the backing music, the VOCALS I can't. This is so amazing!!!
ANNA YOU LITERALLY ATE WITH THESE VOCALS I-
can't wait for this to hit spotify so i can update my playlist
Same!
Man, this song is just the masterpiece i needed.
Wow! I didn't except another version of Once Upon A December!! So happy!! Thank you Anna!! 💙
