    What I find really funny and interesting is that Anastasia is singing about a song she can't remember but it's in the back of her mind, and reading the comments about how people seen the movie long ago and have this song stuck in their head, not really remembering where it's from, and that's what I really like about this song, it sticks with you like her grandmother's song sticks with Anastasia.

    What's really sad is that Anastasia was a real princess and all her family including her died that night. She was like 16 or 17 when she died.

      @callyfana 5 лет назад +584

      She was 17, and she's actually a princess, only on a higher status than other Princesses from another country, as she was titled as " Her Imperial and Royal Highness " (from what i remember, i forgot about that). Grand Duchess was the translation in English for them, i guess.

      Yeah. There was like this theory that Anastasia and her brother Alexei did actually survive the attack, but it turns out their bodies were buried like ten feet away from the rest of the family.

    1-dancing bears, painted wings( her kingdom flag design)
    2-things I almost remember (she forgot about her past)
    3-and a song someone sings, once upon a December (her grandmother telling her about the December war)
    4-someone holds me safe and warm (her mother hugging her because her father died)
    5-horses prance though a silver storm(all the arrows flying in the sky during the war and horses used for riding into the war)
    6-figures dancing gracefully, across my memory(the people in the war falling off the horses as the die and that being what she kind of remembers)
    7-far away, long ago (meaning her past)
    8-glowing dim as an ember(all the fires from the war starting to go out)
    9-things my heart used to know(she remembered this as a kid detail for detail by heart)
    10-things it yearns to remember (she don't remember anymore and is trying to)
    11-and a song someone sings (the story about the war)
    12-once upon a December (when the war started or was happening)
    If u read all this, thx. These are all guesses and things that I believe mean in the song. None of them are true to my knowledge. Pls no hate, I was just simply stating what it COULD mean. And this was intended to be kinda dark and sad considering she had a rough childhood.

    It's crazy to think that this movie came out in 1997 and only 12 years later, it was officially confirmed that Anastasia and her brother did die with their family in their basement. An event that happen 98 years ago, turned into a mystery that took 90 years to solve. In the end, the conclusion was grim and not as one would hope for.... R.I.P. Romanov family

      +Виктория Яблонский I believe that Anatasia escaped. What is said about many things on media: If a statement is actually the truth, people will believe that it's not the truth/false. When is the untruth, people will believe that it's true/fact. In many cases this is what it's like behind the real details in history. Maybe she did escape but no one will know that entire details or there is false coverup somewhere. In time let the real Romanov family rest in peace. There is hope for life if people believe God is trustworthy at Revelation 21:1-5, yet there is life in future to come at 1 Timothy 4:8b. In God We Trust does have true meaning - it simply means that there is a higher source in creation above humankind and all living creation at Psalm 83:18, Exodus 6:3. His name is Jehovah God/YHWH or Adonai. People need to know that because there is creator that is caring, merciful, kind, and loving. A lot of die and have no hope for life, there is hope in life. Christ Jesus is Jehovah God s son. Jesus means Jehovah is Saviour for which corresponds to Jeshua/Joshua. Christ means Messiah. Immanuel mean God Is With Us and corresponds to Michael means Who Is Like God? Immanuel by the looks of it means the Christ Jesus is Mighty God. Michael means by the looks of the name means that Christ Jesus has the personalities, and fine qualifies of his Father Jehovah God the Almighty. Unlike Jehovah God is the true God, Christ Jesus is the true Messiah. They're not same, Christ Jesus and Jehovah God are separate individuals just like the many people here on earth are. Just like they is myriads of angels in heaven that are spiritual individual beings So if people ever survive the battle of Antichrist best know the truth of the true Messiah meaning now. I know it is ever getting closer to litteral real Antichrist's uprising. Be aware of the changes to the government and read at Revelation chapters 12 to 13. Now back to the truth about history other than bible topics, history's past is something that we will never thoroughly gain all knowledge about and pieces of the puzzle will never be solved. Always missing links to the clues.

      Actually to be clear. It does match up in a way because their were many girls claiming to be the Duchess of the Romanov family, they found one exactly like her but when she died, scientists ran a DNA test and it wasn’t really her so it still remains a mystery on if she is alive or dead. But if you go deeper the name Anastasia means resurrection and comes from the Greek. So maybe she did die but got resurrected. She could be any one of us now. Just let that sink in

    What hurts me was when the execution occurred, they were told they were going to another captivity house and were told to wait in a room. The Tsar only said "What" before turning to his family and were shot when they were told they are to be executed. According to the diary/notebook by the Commander (?) (the ones who were assigned to kill them), he stated that Maria and Anastasia were alive (shaking and crouching while protecting their heads) because their corset (lining with jewels to protect them) did protect them. Alas, they both were killed by using bayonets minutes later. ANDDD the Whites Army (good guy), are coming for them at this time. They were killed just before the saviours came.

So sadly she was raped and THEN killed. Do you really think that that's a way to go? Not only that but the father was holding the son as they were shot, and each of the princesses was holding a dog, (they each owned one), the dogs witnessed their owners being massacred. One dog was found alive but in bad condition. And forever traumatized. That is NOT a way to go. And to think you're over here saying they deserved it? To be kidnapped, starved to death, tortured and THEN killed, but it didn't even end there for Maria cuz she was raped first.

      The winter will forever be my favorite season. The most beautiful, but also the most deadly. A snowy night of villager children building snowmen can also be a stormy night of freezing death for another. The beauty of a snowflake surpasses that of a raindrop or burning ember. The cool winds of winter that bring forth unique flakes that surrounds you. You know it can be dangerous but it’s like a mermaid’s song, inescapable. The frost that we see turn the grass white and the ice that keeps us from going too fast. I don’t think anyone will ever truly appreciate the winter and all its wonders. It’s the most unique of our seasons. I will forever love the winter’s icy breath, even if it ensures my death.

    quotes from the tsar and his family:

    "there is no justice among men."
    "what is going to happen to me and all of russia? i am not prepared to be a tsar. i never wanted to become one. i know nothing of the business of ruling."
    *alix of hesse:* "i don't mind whether a person is rich or poor. once my friend, always my friend."
    "life is so fragile that any parting can be eternal. we can never be sure that we will still have an opportunity to ask for forgiveness and be forgiven."
    *olga:* "father asks us to remember that the evil which is now in the world will become stronger yet and that it is not evil which conquers evil, but only love."
    "give my love to all who remember me."
    *tatiana:* "love is light and it has no end. love is great suffering. it cannot eat, it cannot sleep. it is mixed with sin in equal parts. and yet it is better to love. in love, one can be mistaken, and through suffering he expiates for his mistakes."
    "i want to believe there will be light when my journey has ended."
    *maria:* "time flies by with a horrible quickness. soon it will be a year since we saw our friends. well, it's nothing. god will grant us all to meet again."
    "it is difficult to write about anything cheerful, because there's all too little cheerfulness here. on the other hand, god doesn't abandon us. the sun shines, the birds sing, and this morning we heard the bells sounding matins."
    *anastasia:* "sleep sweetly and see me in your dreams and i will see you so we are quits!"
    "olga is hitting maria, and maria is shouting like a big idiot. a dragoon and a big idiot."
    "...i am in tatiana's room. tatiana and olga are here... i am sitting and digging in my nose with my left hand. olga wanted to slap me but i ran away from her swinish hand..."
    *alexei:* "i enjoy the sun and the beauty of summer as long as i can. who knows whether one of these days i shall not be prevented from doing it?"
    "when i am dead, i will not hurt anymore, will it mama?... when i am dead build me a little monument out of stones in the woods."

    My older sister dedicated this song to me while I was 10 yrs old and bedridden in the hospital for a month. She said it was a special sister song, we'd sing it together. I'm so grateful for her, that memory, and the beautiful emotions this song invokes. ❤

    I remember listening to this song all those years ago when in my youth, and listening to it now just both makes joyous me and sad. If you know the history of the Royal Family of Russia as I do about the Tsar and his family especially Anastasia, it really hit you deeply in that sort of way in a tragic sense. I could see having more emotion in this but I think this song does it well.

I watched a movie, the name was Anastasia if I remember right and I loved the movie as a child and this song was one of my favorites because of the melody so it was painted to my mind to stay there 4ever or something, but I only rememberd the melody of the song and because I was so yong and I didn't understand english back then so I didn't learn the lyrics and I only rememberd the melody because of that. I could wrote 4ever if I wanted to about the movie but maybe I shouln't. This doesn't even make any sense any more so yeah...

    I've read a lot of comments debating the "fairness" of the death (or the assassination, or the execution, or the extermination, which way you want to put it) of the Romanov family. There's people who say that they deserved it, for the misery in which they reduced the Russian people and because they were in fact ruthless monarchs; other says that it was no pleasure, but necessary, for preventing the reinstallation of monarchy after the revolution; other still says that it was a tragedy, that nobody deserves to die in such a brutal way, especially innocent children who had nothing to do with politics or social and historical issues. I frankly think that all of these positions are equally valid and the only way to resolve the question is to embrace a more wise, all-considering view: History is the result of human lives and actions, and shall never, unfortunately, be deprived of pain and tragedy. Innocents dies, murderers get along unpunished, that's life. The only reality on which we can agree, respecting the sad fate of this family, is that their assassination was the result of multiple factors, multiple causes and courses, multiple actions and consequences of which they were only partially responsible and conscious (they partially were, that's clear to anyone). This means that they deserved their horrible death? No, who affirms that is at least heartless and compassionless. This means that their death is totally a brutal, unjustified crime and they are only victims? Neither, for they were absolute monarchs and their rule caused endlessly suffering to russian people, comprehensive of innocent children died in famine. Has the life of the poor Anastasia less value of countless other children? No. Does it have more value? No.
    We should respect and grieve about the death of a poor little girl, but we shouldn't at the same time minimize and ignore the reasons of the men and women (I'm talking of Lenin and the bolsheviks) who caused her death, for they had their reasons, their suffering, their part of injustice and, despite the political view of each of us, we can agree they were convinced to build a better world for them and future generations.
