Aaliyah - Journey To The Past (Lyrics)

Sing along with Aaliyah.
Soundtrack: Anastasia (1997)

[@nyomidejesus6127]

i sung this song everyday to my sister when she gave up and started using drugs to cope with pain......shes now a dental tech and in the airforce..its amazing the power of music and prayer

[@JameelahPublicSpeak]

Nyomi DeJesus you're the real mvp.. bless you.

[@aceatkins191]

wow!

[@tajang839]

That’s amazing and congratulations 🎉🎊🎈🍾 to your sister

[@nakiabrown994]

Nice! Such story would have touched Aaliyah. She loved hearing how her music touches and inspires the fans and listeners

[@BeautyLoveGoddess]

Congratulations sweetie, I hope u both nothing but the best.

[@alexchen8565]

The ending to this song made me cry last night. Thinking about Aaliyah, what a special woman.

[@jeaninneharris6201]

Alex Chen the ending was so pretty ..

[@bosshog8277]

Alex Chen I thought it was just me. Ever time I play this and get to the ending I cry. The entire song is beautiful but it’s something that tugs at your heart with her melodic harmony and spirit and emotion within.

[@Yonnie-g1e]

The ending was technically a cover of Michael Jackson’s human nature “oh why, why? Oh why”

[@nicolemaxin7014]

This song really showcases her vocal abilities. The melody is great but the light and smooth tone of her voice makes the song. Aaliyah is just overall great!

[@thethrowawaythatstayed7055]

Right? Her voice in this song is perfect. There’s this delicacy about it here. Strong, but very “pretty”.

[@thewarlord6938]

She isn't dead guys, she lives within her fans :)

This song got me through some of my toughest times before Jesus came into my life. I know this isn't a gospel song, but I think Him for it. He knows how to reach us before we know how to reach Him.

Ikr? It has got to be one of the most beautiful endings to a song I've ever heard.

[@elijahh2258]

It’s taken me years to find this, it’s been stuck in my head forever and I just happened to let the end credits to Anastasia play and Lo and behold. I started to really think that it just didn’t exist and was some Mandela effect

[@johnwise4341]

Calm, elegant, powerful, and intense. Wish she sung ballads like this more often. I like her normal style but she is a really good singer when she sings ballads.

[@moonbunnycakes]

I used to like the movie version but as I got older I started loving this version more. Brings back memories. I watched this with my dad when he got it for me when I was 8 years old. I feel like that was forever ago.

[@anaidhd]

Colleen Marsh I also love this version as well, considering it sounded like Aaliyah was telling her personal story

[@basiapetteway7980]

I cry everytime I hear her version.

[@crimsonxxspawn8613]

I can't even watch the music video.

[@withexpectancy5818]

[@priscillapriscilla1724]

Crazy this was the first song that ever brought tears to my eyes...and I was 8 years old. Felt her emotions in this song then and till this day 😢

[@deedragongirl]

It's really heart wrenching that we had lost so many good singers in the likes of Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, Aaliyah and Selena!

[@destiny9967]

This actually samples Human Nature

[@DoriDior]

It’s so different listening to this song as an adult. It’s so relatable in so many ways.

[@shamikaodell4695]

2023 - going into the new year ! Still absolutely love this beautiful song ❤️

[@Vaterlandsliebe]

To this day, for me, Aaliyah is the most beautiful and vocally gifted woman in the world

[@Spiritualastrologersbyas]

This would be a perfect song for someone to sing at a graduation

[@razaria980]

aaliyahcomeback how is a song about an orphan finding her family and finding her past perfect for a graduation?

[@KitsuneLover101]

Christy Adkins because in the scene this plays in is about her finding herself as she leaves her home, so in the context of a graduation this song means finding yourself as you move from one part of your life to the next.

[@kmiller8372]

I will song it in a copul of years im 12 soooo yeah

[@blueempress4life946]

I was thinking the exact thing too. Great minds think a lot!

[@anaidhd]

Not to mention Aaliyah graduated with high grades

[@yokiionii8888]

This song still brings tears to my eyes and gives me hope

[@rosiebrooks7685]

She was saying her goodbyes if you really just listen. That's why it's so sad.

[@concealdontfeel0]

she did an excellent job on this song. one of her best songs. back then when Disney was Disney

[@2006bruner]

+Conceal Don't Feel This isn't a Disney song..... It's a Twentieth Century Fox Production

[@concealdontfeel0]

+2006bruner I know, but aaliyah did an amazing job singing it

[@musiqdemon]

+Conceal Don't Feel This isn't a Disney movie. But she did an amazing job on this song. Especially when she sang it at the Oscars back when this movie came out.

Classic tune from the legendary Aaliyah! One of the things I loved about this woman's artistry, is the fact that she'll take something and make it her own Rip sweetheart! Left us way too soon!

Definitely one of my favorite ballads from an animated movie.

The way Aaliyah is standing/ posing looking as shes saying towards herself " I'm awesome", indeed she was/ is. Thanks to the songwriters for having her to sing it.😌

Yes yes

She's singing about going back home to her father.

[@gionathangarvey4194]

Beautiful song I love it but towards the end of the song when she says "heyy yeah" it kind of reminds me of human nature when mj says ohhh why oh why

[@andria8279]

oh yeah I love Michael Jackson and Aaliyah rip to both of them

When my eldest daughter was 5 I drove her to school most days. On the way she would sing this song in a perfect American accent. Whenever I hear this song it takes me straight back.

[@DJDizzyStorms]

No one could come close to singing this song like Aaliyah did & she did it justice, its such a shame she left this world way too soon but she gave a great legacy of good music. So for that I say thank you.
