    This is the song that many critics believe holds together the whole Anastasia movie better than the Oscar-nominated Journey to the Past (from the same movie). This appears to be the track that has been most translated into several languages with many observers believing the nobility of the German language gives the version its distinct beauty and elegance. What stands out to me is the delicate touches of innocence, vulnerability and credibility (as the lost Russian Grand Duchess Anastasia) which our Golden Girl has infused into this version. On two measures of excellence -- musicality and the admirable fluency with which she sings in German -- Gerphil-Geraldine Flores has once again gifted listeners with a superb performance, befitting a grand fairy tale. On top of this achievement here, Miss Flores, you have greatly honoured the German side of your heritage. Again, Bravo, Gerphil! More of such excellent music, please!
    Kudos also to Noel D. Espenida for the excellent directing, mixing and very pleasing video production.
    =========================================================================
    For the non-German speaking fans I have chosen to add here the standard English lyrics so that as we listen to Gerphil's version in German we may also capture the essence and meaning of her exquisite performance. But for those who have been huge fans of Anastasia in the original English (and there are legions of them) they may simply close the eyes and savour again and again the great beauty of Gerphil's version here.
    Once Upon A December
    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

Wish ko pa dati na meron sana opera school sa province nmin pra enrol ako. hehehe. At npkaganda ng pgkanta mo sa "Love Story (Where Do I Begin), theme song ng parents ko at favorite ng family ko kantahin kahit nung mga bata pa kami. I'm so happy for you... Love you.

    Giving me goosebumps while listening to it, with Gerphil discreetly known to only sing English classics knows how to sing in German. If that is not exceptional I do not know then what is, she's a true princess. I personally feel that she be given more German opera pieces to perform to.

    That's it! You need to duet with Die Grosse Winner Mark "Kram" Agpas and make some classical mix with with hard rock music in German with Mr. David Foster as the composser/producer.
    It will be haunting and beautiful.
    More like this please.
    Also you might want to experiment with something like Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings soundtracks(if you're learning how to compose lyrics). Plus, there a tone of fanbase for these two novels.
    Another thing, if El Gamma will remake their winning performance, you should sing the Colours of the Wind while they shadow act. That would be magical.
