God, imagine getting to do something like this - singing, acting, having this much fun - for a living. I know it's still hard work, but music and musical theatre is my passion and my dream job and I reaaaallly hope I get to do this someday.
EVVVVVVVVVVVERYTHING!!!! I am so glad they recorded this together!!! They finally gave Zach his own song!!! I am DYING to see this, it is my dream to see this show live
I love the chemistry of when they sing together. Anyone can sing, but to be able to sing in a way that matches another person so entirely is the best gift of all. Thank you for this.
I'm loving this song, and it sounds like the perfect duet for Dimitri and Anastasia; and this is not the end, but the beginning of a life together for them, as her grandmother said, after their wonderful journey and another one starting
This is so good! Derek is SUCH a great Dimitri that I was scared of his replacement but Zach is MARVELOUS and it`s such a different take but I love it. They are both unique and create something interesting! WELL DONE

Listening to Zach and Christy sing "At the Beginning" lifts my spirits always. I first saw Anastasia with my late wife Gloria back in 1997. Little did I know at the time that this song would have the impact that it does for me now.
That's the amazing Haley Bennett. She has worked quite a bit with Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty, the folks that wrote all the music to Anastasia. She has also worked on quite a few of the other current Broadway shows such as Dear Evan Hansen and Once On This Island.
Yes - I just saw her conducting at “Come From Away”!! She was playing the keyboard and conducting ,, but then she danced around onstage with the cast, playing an accordion! She’s awesomely talented!! 👏❤️
i saw zach as dmitry his opening week--he's amazing !!! he has this youthfulness to him & optimism almost? very different from derek but so good too!!! if you can get yourself rush tickets it's worth it for him :")
I’m sick of everyone wanting Derek, he left and Zach is here now, he is a great performer and singer and just be grateful we even have this. What if Zach read this comments, spread love guys and don’t be so immature. Fantastic video guys! ❤️💗💖

I'm losing my freaking mind!!! AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!! 😮😮😮 really really hoping that Liz Callaway and Christy Alromare officially record their duet of Journey to the Past
Paola Rivera the song was originally made popular by Richard Marx and Donna Lewis when Anastasia animation movie was out back in 1997, in case you forget or don’t know it.. I believe this music is not different from the original version. Hence that explains why it sounds so 90s. Anyway.. I love the original version more even though this Christy-Zach version isn’t that bad..😃🙏
God so for all of y’all who are still hung up on Derek like don’t get me wrong Derek was phenomenal but Zach??? Zachary M Adkins???????? That man is a god. His Dima is flawless he’s boyish and charming yet still delivers on the heavy emotional side he has the voice of a goddam angel and I honestly haven’t seen any videos of him singing that even compare to what he can do live. I love Zach Adkins with every inch of my being thank you for coming to my Ted Talk
THIS IS SO AMAZING!!! i love this song so much really the whole soundtrack is amazing and totally needs a deluxe album!!! They both have such amazing chemistry you can totally see it!!!
oh my gosh it's in a recording studio with a full accompaniment ALL OF MY PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED THE DREAMS OF 13 YEAR OLD ME ARE COMING TRUE THANK YOU GOD
The pure happiest of these two while doing their own version makes this video amazing, it’s not always the sound.. sometimes emotion says it all. Smile.
Can everyone stop complaining that Derek isn’t in the video? Derek left the show three months ago to pursue other opportunities. Zach is a wonderful Dmitry and definitely does justice to the part. If he wasn’t good and if he didn’t have amazing chemistry with other cast members, he probably wouldn’t have booked the part. Stop being rude and let them be.
Nicole Wagner Truly agree with you. He's getting all this unnecessary hate. The fact that they went out of their way to record an Anastasia song that wasn't in the musical is definitely touching, since they know it would make fans happy. Can't fans just be thankful that they recorded this?
I love all the pairs who have sung this song together. This is my favorite I think. The great chemistry and smiles from Zach and Christy both warms my heart especially when it needs warming. Lyrics remind me all the time of the wonderful relationship that I had with my wife Gloria for 25 years until her passing in 2016 the day after Easter.
My fiancé just agreed to At The Beginning for our first dance (a favorite of mine since 1997), but ONLY if it’s this version! You know what? I can DEFINITELY get on board with it!
Anastasia - At The Beginning Lyrics We were strangers Starting out on a journey Never dreaming what wed have to go through Now here we are And I'm suddenly standing At the beginning with you No one told me, that I was going to find you Unexpected, what you did to my heart When I lost hope You were there to remind me This is the start [Chorus:] And life is a road I wanna keep going Love is a river I want to keep flowing Life is road now and forever Wonderful journey I'll be there when the world stops turning I'll be there when the storm is through In the end I wanna be standing At the beginning with you We were strangers On a crazy adventure Never dreaming that dreams would come true Now here we stand unafraid of the future At the beginning with you [Chorus:] And life is a road I wanna keep going Love is a river I want to keep flowing Life is road now and forever Wonderful journey I'll be there when the world stops turning I'll be there when the storm is through In the end I wanna be standing At the beginning with you Knew there was somebody somewhere Like me alone in the dark Now I know that my dream will live on I've been waiting so long Nothings gonna tear us apart [Chorus:] And life is a road I wanna keep going Love is a river I want to keep flowing Life is road now and forever Wonderful journey I'll be there when the world stops turning I'll be there when the storm is through In the end I wanna be standing At the beginning with you Life is a road and I wanna keep going Love is a river I want to keep going on Starting out on a journey Life is a road I wanna keep going Love is a river I want to keep flowing In the end I want to be standing at the beginning With you
I'm so happy that we have this version with Zach! When I was in New York I saw Anastasia when Zach was Dimitri and he did such an amazing job and he's such a good singer! I'm happy that I have a song where I get to hear and remember what he sounded like.
Omg I love this so much and it’s insane how good Adkins’s voice is. I would love a Klena version just because I love various castings and exploring these characters through different people.
love it, I am very appreciative & grateful BUT if you want my money (I know you do) put this on iTunes, I'll be purchasing it cause Christy & Zack, BUT then I'll pay you again, by purchasing the version I would love & be appreciative of with Derek & Christy (studio version), pretty pretty please, we've seen the 54 below!
I don’t know why, but every time I hear this song I become very emotional. I really love this song. I hope I can sing this to my special someone someday.
Zach’s vocals threw me off a little at the beginning (no pun intended), it may have been too high for him or he was too nervous to give his all, which I see why the key change was made. Richard Marx is a saint 😂 But then the song picked up and while I didn’t like the change in his harmonies at first, I grew to love it and he just grew a lot in this one performance. This was glorious! Christy, fantastic as always. I love how they both got really hyped up with each other in the end. And the conductor just looked so pleased being there- shoot I would’ve been too!
I think the song is just written awkwardly where you have to jump up to a high note all of a sudden. It's not natural for anyone but Richard Marx. It reminds me of how different Sara sounds compared to the other Jennas in Waitress.
If you guys want to enjoy this with Derek's voice as well, there's actually a live version of these two singing it. You can look for it. It's amazing, the voice chemistry is incomparable.
Sweet Jesus- some of you need to stop taking a “Journey to the Past” unless your Anya. Please, unless you have something positive about ZACH AND CHRISTY recording this stunning version of At The Beginning, please keep your comments to yourself. Derek is obviously dearly missed, but he hasn’t been with the show for 3 months now. He has moved on, so should you. Zach is an EQUALLY incredible Dmitry who has EQUALLY incredible chemistry with Christy both on and off the stage. I’ve seen them both twice and they’re both excellent. If this version really bothers you so much, I will happily refer you to the 54 Below performance where Derek and Christy sing this song. Everybody wins. Broadway is ever changing and no one can stay forever. Please give the same amount of respect you give to principals to understudies, swings, standbys and replacements. Nothing works or gets done without all of their involvement. Incredibly thankful for this beautiful version that they both did!!! 💜💜💜
I love Christy’s energy when she sings. She’s shining the brightest.
We were strangers
Starting out on a journey
Never dreaming what wed have to go through
Now here we are
And I'm suddenly standing
At the beginning with you
No one told me, that I was going to find you
Unexpected, what you did to my heart
When I lost hope
You were there to remind me
This is the start
[Chorus:]
And life is a road I wanna keep going
Love is a river I want to keep flowing
Life is road now and forever
Wonderful journey
I'll be there when the world stops turning
I'll be there when the storm is through
In the end I wanna be standing
At the beginning with you
We were strangers
On a crazy adventure
Never dreaming that dreams would come true
Now here we stand unafraid of the future
At the beginning with you
[Chorus:]
And life is a road I wanna keep going
Love is a river I want to keep flowing
Life is road now and forever
Wonderful journey
I'll be there when the world stops turning
I'll be there when the storm is through
In the end I wanna be standing
At the beginning with you
Knew there was somebody somewhere
Like me alone in the dark
Now I know that my dream will live on
I've been waiting so long
Nothings gonna tear us apart
[Chorus:]
And life is a road I wanna keep going
Love is a river I want to keep flowing
Life is road now and forever
Wonderful journey
I'll be there when the world stops turning
I'll be there when the storm is through
In the end I wanna be standing
At the beginning with you
Life is a road and I wanna keep going
Love is a river I want to keep flowing on
Starting out on a journey
Life is a road I wanna keep going
Love is a river I want to keep flowing
In the end I want to be standing at the beginning
With you

Te amo por poner el lyric
Swango33 nice
Thank youuuu!!
Anastasia fans already knew the lyrics to this song. There was no need to type them out.
The original Donna Lewis and Richard Marx duet will always be my favorite, but this is a great version, too.
Ikr! The original always be the best!
Alex Meyer faxx
Alex Meyer i agree its soo true
My favorite version is when Christy and Derek did this live.
I agree totally!
The diction in this version is fantastic. Crispy, crystal clear consonants and vowels. Voice and overall energies are fantastic too!
God, imagine getting to do something like this - singing, acting, having this much fun - for a living. I know it's still hard work, but music and musical theatre is my passion and my dream job and I reaaaallly hope I get to do this someday.

I miss the daily dose of Christy.
Christy?
I love Christy, she sings this and every song with such passion and you can tell she absolutely loves this character.
I haven’t heard Zach sing before this, but like dang they sound really good together. This is one awesome recording!

Its such a shame that this song isn't actually in the musical
No way! This song is not in the musical? Damn. I don't get it?
Not enough love for the conductor so I guess I'll be the one giving it. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ BUT THIS IS BEAUTIFUL.
That's the amazing Haley Bennett. She has worked quite a bit with Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty, the folks that wrote all the music to Anastasia. She has also worked on quite a few of the other current Broadway shows such as Dear Evan Hansen and Once On This Island.

Yes, I am beginning to be in love with the conductor, she has an amazing smile with happiness.
MY HEART!!!!
I thought Derek was the perfect Dmitry but now I'm really curious to see Zach's version!! Great voice.
chavivi86 saw zach as dmitry about 2 months ago! he was absolutely fantastic. he reminded me a lot of the dmitry in the movie :-)
i saw zach as dmitry his opening week--he's amazing !!! he has this youthfulness to him & optimism almost? very different from derek but so good too!!! if you can get yourself rush tickets it's worth it for him :")
Oh yea it was fantastic. Can’t see anyone else playing it honestly. He is adorable!

THEY DID THAT
*They did it. Here you go: **ruclips.net/video/eGk8raYDNro/видео.html*
I love how Christy's like, guiding him through the song since he's the newbie and she's the old vet lol. So cute.
Why is this rendition not on Spotify?! I need this!
I was just looking for it! Ugh it needs to be 😭
The original isn’t on Spotify either
I was going to ask the same thing 😂 I need this song asap

ALL OF MY PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED
THE DREAMS OF 13 YEAR OLD ME ARE COMING TRUE THANK YOU GOD
Damn...this gave me chills the SECOND Christy started singing! Love this song and they did an amazing job on this.
I love her voice so gentle and soothing to the ears!!❤️❤️😍😍
I lost it when he said the line “When I lost Hope... you were there to remind me” ♥️ please bring this musical in the Philippines!
Zach's voice is so aesthetically pleasing😍
Super agree!
I love watching how much Christy LOVES to sing
I really love this song, and also this version. great singers, i like christy's voice. im always playing it!
This sums up how I feel about my fiance. So blessed to have him in my life. I'm looking forward to a new beginning with him

Kudos for you!!

OH MY YAAA!!! YESTERDAY, I SAW CHRISTY AND LIZ PERFORM A DUET OF JOURNEY TO THE PAST AND NOW THIS? I AM SO LUCKY TO BE ALIVE RIGHT NOW.
AFTER CHRISTY AND DEREK SANG THIS AT THE PRINCESS PARTY IVE BEEN DYING FOR A DIMA AND ANYA RECORDING OMG!!!
Elise Luttrell Yeees. And when he ran in, calling "Princess, princess" to Christy aka Anya like he was real Dmitry. SO CUTE 😍
Марина Смирнова it had my little princess heart fluttering 😍😍
Well they just posted one of Derek and Christy singing "You Shine" , I think you'll enjoy it😉
Sorry, but who is Dima?
Yunuén Valdez Rmz. Dimitri! They nicknamed him Dima at the broadhurst 😂
To have someone look at you like she looks at him...& the feeling of looking at someone the way she is look at him is so heavenly
I got to see them opposite each other on Broadway, and I just found this and I'm so happy I did. This is amazing!
This is incredible! I love their voices together. Time to listen to this on repeat!
I love this so much! And I’m so glad we got a Zach recording ❤️
Alright, so let’s get a studio recording of Christy and Liz Callaway’s Journey to the Past. I wanna throw all my money to that 😂
Here you go: ruclips.net/video/eGk8raYDNro/видео.html

Yes I think it would upset me if people were like we rather this person instead of you. Zach doesn't deserve that.
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS MY WHOLE LIFE AAAAAAAAHHHH!!! I’M CRYING!! 😭❤️
Really lovely. Zach has got a good voice that pairs well with Christy's. #FanastasiaFanatic
I actually really Zach voice too
Zach is an amazing Dmitry! Love this song so much and even more so because Christy and Zach sang it! Favourite Anastasia song ever!! ❤️
I love all the pairs who have sung this song together. This is my favorite I think. The great chemistry and smiles from Zach and Christy both warms my heart especially when it needs warming. Lyrics remind me all the time of the wonderful relationship that I had with my wife Gloria for 25 years until her passing in 2016 the day after Easter.
Playing this version for nth time. I'm so in love with the song and their version!!
Zach was my Dmitri when I saw Anastasia and he was so good! I love this so much!!!!
I'm seeing him in 2 weeks and I am LITERALLY so excited to see him!
BigonBooks he is such a great Dmitri. And him and Christy have great chemistry, you’ll love it!
Zach is wonderful! I love them both so much!

How did it go? :))
One of the best duets of all time!
My favourite song ever 😍 so under appreciated
You know you’re a huge fan when you’d stay listening to the music during the credits 😂 love this cover! ♥️
I have 2 demands: first, bring the show back; second, have it professionally recorded
I second this
The nostalgia gave me goosebumps. Brings me back when I’m just a little kid
Their chemistry and harmonies are amazing!
Anastasia - At The Beginning Lyrics
We were strangers
Starting out on a journey
Never dreaming what wed have to go through
Now here we are
And I'm suddenly standing
At the beginning with you
No one told me, that I was going to find you
Unexpected, what you did to my heart
When I lost hope
You were there to remind me
This is the start
[Chorus:]
And life is a road I wanna keep going
Love is a river I want to keep flowing
Life is road now and forever
Wonderful journey
I'll be there when the world stops turning
I'll be there when the storm is through
In the end I wanna be standing
At the beginning with you
We were strangers
On a crazy adventure
Never dreaming that dreams would come true
Now here we stand unafraid of the future
At the beginning with you
[Chorus:]
And life is a road I wanna keep going
Love is a river I want to keep flowing
Life is road now and forever
Wonderful journey
I'll be there when the world stops turning
I'll be there when the storm is through
In the end I wanna be standing
At the beginning with you
Knew there was somebody somewhere
Like me alone in the dark
Now I know that my dream will live on
I've been waiting so long
Nothings gonna tear us apart
[Chorus:]
And life is a road I wanna keep going
Love is a river I want to keep flowing
Life is road now and forever
Wonderful journey
I'll be there when the world stops turning
I'll be there when the storm is through
In the end I wanna be standing
At the beginning with you
Life is a road and I wanna keep going
Love is a river I want to keep going on
Starting out on a journey
Life is a road I wanna keep going
Love is a river I want to keep flowing
In the end I want to be standing at the beginning
With you
Very good 👍
I'm gonna be living on this video page for three years.
That was beautiful....love this song!
I'm so happy that we have this version with Zach! When I was in New York I saw Anastasia when Zach was Dimitri and he did such an amazing job and he's such a good singer! I'm happy that I have a song where I get to hear and remember what he sounded like.
I love Zach! I'm lucky to have watched them both in Anastasia Broadway in Oct. 2018!
アナスタシアの物語も歌も大好きなので、また、聞けて嬉しいです😆✨✨
しかも、この舞台女優さん凄く可愛いらしくて素敵な方ですね😆✨✨
しかも、笑った顔が更に素敵です😆✨✨
この舞台女優さんのアナスタシアの舞台実際行ってみたいです😆✨✨
I AM LITERALLY CRYING ❤️❤️❤️😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I LOVE THIS AND CHRISTY AND ZACH DID AN AMAZING JOBB
THIS IS AMAZING!!! Christy Altomare is so talented and this song sounds beautiful!!!
And Yes I am Still Playing it Over and Over 😍😍😍 I Really Love Their Voices!!!
Omg I love this so much and it’s insane how good Adkins’s voice is. I would love a Klena version just because I love various castings and exploring these characters through different people.
love it, I am very appreciative & grateful BUT if you want my money (I know you do) put this on iTunes, I'll be purchasing it cause Christy & Zack, BUT then I'll pay you again, by purchasing the version I would love & be appreciative of with Derek & Christy (studio version), pretty pretty please, we've seen the 54 below!

The performers actually look like they're in love I love it!
I don’t know why, but every time I hear this song I become very emotional.
I really love this song. I hope I can sing this to my special someone someday.
I love the song very much... Keep on believing and keep people inspiring to live! Long live good music and keep sharing positive vibes...
I am loving this version.💕💕
Zach’s vocals threw me off a little at the beginning (no pun intended), it may have been too high for him or he was too nervous to give his all, which I see why the key change was made. Richard Marx is a saint 😂 But then the song picked up and while I didn’t like the change in his harmonies at first, I grew to love it and he just grew a lot in this one performance. This was glorious! Christy, fantastic as always. I love how they both got really hyped up with each other in the end. And the conductor just looked so pleased being there- shoot I would’ve been too!
XMyChemx4xLifex I agree. He sounds kinda pitchy and nasally tbh.
I think the song is just written awkwardly where you have to jump up to a high note all of a sudden. It's not natural for anyone but Richard Marx. It reminds me of how different Sara sounds compared to the other Jennas in Waitress.
Agreed 💯
This is beautiful! Definitely want to see the musical!
Lovely song for the lovely theater couple. I love the way they look at each other. CONTAGIOUS! : )
This is such a great redux of the classic movie's music
If you guys want to enjoy this with Derek's voice as well, there's actually a live version of these two singing it. You can look for it. It's amazing, the voice chemistry is incomparable.
I have literal chills whenever & 'however' the instruments first kick in.
My heart 💜, it's so unapologetically 90's. I love it!

THIS WAS BEAUTIFUL
I got to see them as Anya and Dimitri in October and I love them so much! I love this cover so much! 😍😍😍😍😍😍
Christy is beautiful. And you can tell she's having so much fun when she's singing!
Can we have “In a Crowd of Thousands” with Christy and Zach? Please.
Siriusly Amazing I want a comparison of “in a crowd of thousands” with ALL the Dmitris and Anyas
Wow I really loved this song.. And I see a chemistry between .. 😘😍😘
I feel in love with this song 😘😘😘
Sweet Jesus- some of you need to stop taking a “Journey to the Past” unless your Anya. Please, unless you have something positive about ZACH AND CHRISTY recording this stunning version of At The Beginning, please keep your comments to yourself. Derek is obviously dearly missed, but he hasn’t been with the show for 3 months now. He has moved on, so should you. Zach is an EQUALLY incredible Dmitry who has EQUALLY incredible chemistry with Christy both on and off the stage. I’ve seen them both twice and they’re both excellent. If this version really bothers you so much, I will happily refer you to the 54 Below performance where Derek and Christy sing this song. Everybody wins. Broadway is ever changing and no one can stay forever. Please give the same amount of respect you give to principals to understudies, swings, standbys and replacements. Nothing works or gets done without all of their involvement. Incredibly thankful for this beautiful version that they both did!!! 💜💜💜

PREACH- I only saw Anastasia once and it was with these two. Zach was AMAZING and the chemistry was as well!
Do everyone a favor and zip it bitch.
Bea Smith naaahhh I’m good!
Bea Smith you zip it bitch.
I just found this today, and oh my gosh, I love it! Well done!
Our graduation song. This brought tears to my eyes.
