Anastasia in REAL LIFE - At The Beginning feat. Evynne Hollens

[@PeterHollens]

If you want to be part of the collaboration head over to www.patreon.com/peterhollens and sign up!! Which video is better? The instrumental version on my wife's channel: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eH2yl2ybg7mEkMk (Instrumental) Or this one?! YOU DECIDE! (We're having a little competition over here!!)

[@DeFilmKater]

Evynne's of course, because: it's never a good idea to compete with your wife with the intention to win! ;) ;) ;)

[@daimyo_Ikigai]

Peter Hollens hey please do in the dark of the knight next it would be so awesome to here your take on a villain song!!! Love your work!!! 👏👏👏👍👍👍👍🍾🍾🎂🍰👑🤞🎈🛍🎁🥂🎊❤️🙏

[@EvynneHollens]

Haha I LIKE how you think ;)

[@jeffmacfarlane9598]

I usually prefer yours when you both do a song, but this time I have to say Enynne's is better.

[@sheilaneya1988]

I just have to keep with my love of acapella. both are great though! and i'll restate it, I just love love love it! when you two do love songs together! =D

[@fraya1022]

I love when they do duets together! ❤

[@PeterHollens]

I love singing with Evynne :) :)

[@emilyann3840]

Your voices blend so beautifully together. I'm convinced that this is like the movie "Enchanted"; Peter and Evynne were Prince and Princess, and got sent to the real world.

[@PeterHollens]

ooo I like your take on it! :)

[@Heyo-Its-Georgia]

What a wonderful gift for your children to have in their later years!

[@BeatrizTheFrikiGamerGirl]

You two are totally relatioship goals! You are awesome! 💙

[@PeterHollens]

[@BeatrizTheFrikiGamerGirl]

Peter Hollens you are very welcome! I love your songs, and you and your wife are amazing! Wish I could sing like that😍 Hope you too keep being as incredible and happy as it seems you are💙

[@hanakom5055]

life goal: marry someone who will do something like this with you

[@nathancruz9172]

That’s my same goal, too.

[@hetheron]

absolutely gorgeous!! 😍😍😍 you and your wife are so talented!!

[@PeterHollens]

ah thanks so much Emily, Evynne and I really appreciate it!

[@EvynneHollens]

Thanks so much Emily!

[@seygish]

Emily Harrison I can't say it besser than you

[@chilvari]

Anastasia is one of my favorite childhood movies! I still have the VHS from when the movie was first released! Also, "At The Beginning" was always my fav. song from the movie and still is! Thanx for this beautiful reminder!

[@TheTurtleGirl]

When Peter and Evynne both upload a video at the same time and you don't know which notification to click first....

[@PeterHollens]

hmm... watch both at the same time? :D

[@WWG93]

Peter Hollens Amazing as always. If I may ask could you maybe do one of the songs from The Lion King TWO? Anywho thanks for the new song for my playlist! Looking forward to the next ones!

[@littlebigkicker]

+Peter Hollens amazing

[@amandafredette872]

looks back and forth 😱😭lol😂

[@meaganjsnow]

George Cronje that would amazing either we are one or love will find a way would be perfect.

[@OverwatchPlaysHD]

I loved Anastasia as a kid, awesome movie! I gave the video a like, keep up the hard work (:

[@nathancruz9172]

Me too.

[@alvaromunoz6837]

You have one of the best of voices and can make any instrumental with your voice

[@PeterHollens]

wow, thank you!! :) A Cappella definitely takes practice!

[@alvaromunoz6837]

I can definitely see that. You are wonderful though

[@MissRaex]

I love that both of you dressed up as the characters in the animation!

[@SaeraMarySanthosh03]

i love this movie so naturally this sing is AMAZING

[@PeterHollens]

thanks a million, Saera!!

[@jonathanbowers8964]

Live action Anastasia starring the Hollens couple. Change my mind.

[@torigraceann]

Oh peter. I love this song so much!!! COULD YOU PLEASE DO LEARN TO DO IT FROM ANASTASIA!!!!!!!

[@PeterHollens]

I will consider that!!! Thanks Victoria :)

[@torigraceann]

OMG!!!!

[@joyliu1307]

Two videos from my fav KZbin couple?!?! Thank the lord!!! ❤️❤️👌👌👌👌❤️❤️

[@PeterHollens]

Love it, Joy!! :D

[@PadenBaggett]

Agreed, Peter and Evynne are the best!

[@alexandrawolf9100]

Oh my Lord!! This is one of my favourite songs ever and you just hit it! Amazing! Love watching you two working together! Such a cute couple! May God bless you! Also: such a cool idea to get people involved for a big project - can't wait to see it!

[@PeterHollens]

Thanks Alexandra! I'm SO EXCITED!!!

[@jamescrilley1041]

As usually, a song with you two in it gets added to my favourite list. "One of Us" from "The Lion King 2" would be nice to hear.

[@annaweasleyart]

Oh my god! I love it. You two are just perfection :) Please do Let me be your wings from Thumbelina that would be so awesome!

[@PeterHollens]

Thanks Anna!! I'll look into that song :-)

[@princessleia555]

Love all the songs in Anastasia but this one is close to my heart. Beautiful version! Love one day for you or Evynne to do Once upon a December! (Maybe in December?!?)

[@RobinPierceWildMoonSister]

Once Upon a December & Journey to the Past - Evynne Hollens kzbin.info/www/bejne/kKncl31_n6-Bmpo from *last* December!

[@nathancruz9172]

Me too.

[@melodymeadows7000]

This makes me seriously happy :D

[@PeterHollens]

I'm so glad!!! mission accomplished then :)

[@ldsgermanshepherdboy9272]

Melody Meadows LOL same😁 This is my FAVORITE song, and I'd like my future wife and I to dance to At The Beginning at our first dance😁

[@alysham.7318]

Yes! This made me so happy you guys. Both videos were amazing. I can't choose because I loved elements of both. Loved how you guys created a slightly different "story" for each video! Suggesting "Evermore" from Beauty and the Beast as a future project!

[@PeterHollens]

I'm glad you liked that :-) We shared some footage, but did different shoots for the two videos! And Evermore is coming!!

[@katiehanna90]

I HAVE NEVER CLICKED ON A NOTIFICATION SO FAST

[@emily-dow]

jessica prescott saaammmmeeee😂

[@PeterHollens]

love it!!!

[@amytaylor9596]

jessica prescott I was at the dr office so couldn't watch it, but I was so anxious to get home!!! Lol

[@victoriagarzione4360]

same with me love when they sing together

[@stephanginther9051]

I wonder how Peter's version of 'I'm Still Here' from Treasure Planet would sound...who thinks this is a good idea? oh, or while we're on smi-popular movie soundtracks, how about 'Here I Am' or 'Get Off of My Back' from Spirit?

[@frankys.1893]

Seconded. All of it.

[@jennym4882]

Spirit cover would be amazing, there isn't a single movie that can compete with how much I love that damn horse film! :D

[@wonderlaund]

YESSS

[@RileyWaterFox]

Get off my back from Spirit sounds awesome.

[@shalaylaw7933]

YESYESYES

[@EmmaG17]

Beautiful as always! Would love to hear a cover of "Fare thee Well" or some Irish trad sometime :) 💚

[@PeterHollens]

neat suggestion! thanks :)

[@stephanginther9051]

Fare the well, a good traditional Irish song, the High Kings did a pretty good version, but there are hundreds of versions of that song out there, a lot of ways one could do it. Good idea.

[@Theannegirl01]

It's almost creepy how much Evynne looks like Anastasia! I loved this so much, and my request would have to be Starry Starry night. i know if I keep persisting I'll get it sometime.

[@PeterHollens]

I know, right?!! So crazy! And gah I'm so sorry! Yes, keep persisting :-) Thanks Annaliese!!

[@AustinMcGarr]

sounds great Peter. You make my patreon donations well worth It! Thank you!!

[@PeterHollens]

that is awesome to hear!!! Thank you so much for your amazing support Austin :)

[@kathysnyder876]

I love when you two sing together!!! You both are phenomenal alone but together you are magical!

[@shelbypointer4620]

This video completes my morning... First GameGrumps on GMM and now Peter and Evynne both upload at the same time Edit: And the fact that this video is based around my favorite childhood movie!

[@PeterHollens]

thanks Shelby! I hope the rest of your day is awesome :)

[@Faithfightersdg]

Thank you so much! I was waiting for this one, and then there are TWO of them! And you did it with Evynne! It really is my dream of the song come true. Both are beyond perfect! Thank you.

[@PeterHollens]

I'm so happy to hear that!! Thank you :-)

[@dokkva]

one of my all time favorites songs ^^ well done

[@PeterHollens]

awesome!! Thanks for watching Maria :D

[@TashaKoenig]

Your videos and your work makes me cry tears of joy almost every other week. I swear. Civilization, Skyrim to Anastasia!!!?? You basically have sung everything I live for.

[@Kezzick]

I love Anastasia so, as per usual, this is amazing. Great job Peter and Evynne!

[@PeterHollens]

thank you for watching, Peter :D

[@tedibear9]

my suggestion would be: I stand Alone from Quest for Camelot Or Looking through your eyes (duet) also from Quest for camelot

[@emmamolloy7829]

You guys look the part and sound amazing:) Awesome job! But how long has this video been in the works to have snow on the ground?

[@PeterHollens]

We actually filmed it very recently!! It took us some time to find somewhere that still had snow in Oregon in May, but we did it!!

[@stephanginther9051]

Lol, I live in Montana, finding snow in May is not impossible, just got to get elevation.

[@jimmyking511]

Both versions are incredible. You guys have such a beautiful harmony and it's always a pleasure to watch your duets :D

[@PeterHollens]

Yay thank you so much James!

[@Stroopwafeltje]

Yasss!! Flawless 😍

[@PeterHollens]

aw shucksss. Thank you!!!

[@taylorp.6343]

Peter Hollens you are an amazing singer along with your wife.. also your little boy is adorable

[@calvinoberly5325]

Amazing! This may be my favorite version of one of my favorite songs. I wish my wife and I could do duets like this, but she had pneumonia a number of years back and she has a really hard time trying to sing ever since. For that reason, I find your duets with Evynne especially precious. Keep up the awesome work!

[@kayleeh8500]

This is lit

[@PeterHollens]

;) thanks!

[@kayleeh8500]

I love your videos

[@kayleeh8500]

Do more with Sky/Adam u guys together sing is great

[@GiordaniSisters]

Thank you for this Peter!!!! This is our high school's "song". The seniors especially have a special place for this song in their heart. As a member of the class of 2017 this definitely made me tear up again!

[@PeterHollens]

Glad it could bring back some good memories ❤️🙂 Thanks for watching!

[@robbysilva2244]

Hey Peter the music as usual is amazing!!!! I loved it and I wanted to let you know that you have inspired me to sing more. My high school all state choir auditions are coming up and I actually signed up thanks to you!! Fingers crossed and hopefully I can keep advancing!!! Anyways this was amazing and you have truly inspired me and I am grateful for it!

[@PeterHollens]

Aw thanks bud! Much love. Keep singing!

[@robbysilva2244]

Peter Hollens no thank you, for encouraging me not only musically but in other aspects of my life!

[@leighjob5011]

Aah, I'm so happy you guys covered this! I've been hoping you'd do so since the Anastasia musical opened on Broadway. Both versions are absolutely stunning!

[@mastermike890]

Awesome!!! I'd love to see a newsies or singing in the rain :)

[@karastart65]

Peter would do Newsies so well!! I can only imagine how good it would sound acapella!!

[@PeterHollens]

I'm still considering it!!

[@karastart65]

Glad to hear it - and know that there are many Fansies hoping for a Newsies medley in the near future - including myself XD

[@shadowhuntress1371]

oooh, that would love to hear Singing in the Rain from the Hollens family. That would sound so beautiful in acapella.

[@sympeathien]

Oh man I haven't heard this song in such a long time and this is such a beautiful rendition of it and now I have tears in my eyes

[@dianwinasti7910]

please do If I never knew you in 2 version(accapela & instrumental)!

[@tyrentherisen]

Oh my word. If under any other circumstance I would jump at this opportunity. And Peter, you and Evynne did such a great job with this video. This is my favorite romantic duet of all time. Thank you for sharing your talent with us!

[@ariel_of_narnia4482]

I think I would be willing to put up with all the parts of the Anastasia film I don't like... just to see Peter cast as Dmitri and Evynne as Anastasia. :D Anyway. Requesting "The Call" or "This is Home" from Narnia again. :)

[@NateSean]

I love this song so much. Anastasia is my favorite Don Bleuth film, followed only by The Land Before Time and Titan AE. I didn't think in would ever love this song more but you and Evynne made me fall in love with it all over again. Thank you both.

[@marthamist9128]

Your wife needs to be in a Disney movie. But she could be a good Anastasia, too. P.S. Wish I could join you in Patreon, but I have my own money problems.

[@PeterHollens]

Completely understandable ❤️🙂 Glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for watching!

[@marthamist9128]

Peter Hollens Just kidding. I wanted to see your reaction.

[@dottiedotpie]

The two of you have such a magical connection! Every time i see you guys sing together its purely beautiful. Thank you for being the amazing people you are. it is truly inspiring

[@PeterHollens]

thanks for the kind words!

[@charliegrace2792]

THIS IS AMAZING XX❤️💕

[@PeterHollens]

thank you so much!

[@charliegrace2792]

Peter Hollens Your welcome! You 2 are both great singers!❤️

[@kristenanderson5273]

I had the Anastasia soundtrack growing up, and this was one of my favorite songs on the CD. You two sang it better imo. Beautiful job!

[@Nynaeve....]

As a villain song--"In the Dark of the Night"--oh please, oh please, oh please!!!!!!!

[@Rei_verse]

What made it really special was the connection between them.

[@bettyspearns8341]

Oh you beautiful talented couple! ❤️❤️

[@PeterHollens]

:-) Thanks Betty!!

[@cm_0011]

I love that you did this acapella version and evynne did one with instruments. both versions are beautiful and made me wanna cry, I love this movie and this song, and the way you and evynne look at eachother is so amazing

[@ifbpeanut]

You should do the Patreon thing EXCEPT WITH NEWSIES!!!!!!!!

[@PeterHollens]

Oh man Newsies would be crazy! I do have a medley in the works!!

[@ifbpeanut]

It WOULD be crazy, but it would be SO MUCH FUN!!!

[@rachelolsen8774]

I NEED NEWSIES

[@dragonmastrVids]

Wow, I just re-watched Anastasia a week ago and now this comes out. I honestly can't decide which version I like better, both have their own charms.

[@alexahoov11]

Please do a Newsies Medly!!

[@karastart65]

Yes, please! Peter hinted earlier that a Newsies medley might be coming, so I hope it's soon!!!

[@ambermckenzie4447]

I have loved this song for as long as I can remember, but the love that you and Evynne have for each other shines through in this video and makes it so much better.

[@schpunyacerita]

Really love both of you Peter! :D #HollensFamily

[@PeterHollens]

❤️🙂

[@schpunyacerita]

❤

[@noahvaldez7209]

I love this song. It's been my favorite for 20 years. I'm glad you and Evynne did this. I love you guys so much.

[@PeterHollens]

Yay thanks Noah! Glad you enjoyed it 🙂

[@zuziadabrowska3754]

Amazing 😃❤

[@PeterHollens]

thanks Zuzia :)

[@erinnichols6378]

aaaaah! I'm so glad you did this song! I have fond memories of rewinding Anastasia to listen to this song with my sister over and over again.

[@oneillconnorg]

You should do the Skye Boat Song from the Outlander series.

[@haidenmatthews1352]

You and your wife sing beautifully together.you guys are blessed

[@MochaMewz]

Great stuff :) Anastasia is so underrated.

[@VenhedisKaffas]

So beautiful!This is pure magic! And Evynne looks a lot like Anya. Love the costumes.

[@sananaryon4061]

Okay, you were both great in this. Though I do miss the beard

[@PeterHollens]

the beard will be back!!!

[@EvynneHollens]

Thanks August! me too ;)

[@danieljarstfer7966]

Peter, as always your music videos with your wife are my favorites, not just those y'all do but all time favorites! Keep on loving each other and sing with and to each other. My wife and I just celebrate 38 years of being in the covenant bonds of marriage. Love your music!! Keep singing (and as you can, collaborate).

[@PeterHollens]

Thank you so much Daniel, I appreciate that! And congrats on 38 wonderful years. 💑

[@ifbpeanut]

Evynne actually does look like Anya... BUT WHERE'S VLAD and POOKA???

[@cheyannelippincott6367]

Kelly Delaney senpai noticed you and hearted your comment!

[@jonathanfrancesco3305]

She really does. Can we just make a live action and cast her now? lol

[@sweetserendipity1402]

aww this brings back all the memories! i really love this song, and as usual you always give us an awesome cover with an awesome video. well done guys!

[@PeterHollens]

Thank you so much!!

[@MikeJohnson-gv4zr]

You should probably do Pure Imagination next :D.

[@PeterHollens]

I'll see what I can do! 😉

[@pauldickinson3961]

Mike Johnson I second this.

[@AnaxErik4ever]

That would be wonderful.

[@WillIAmAm]

i listened to this song every day when i was 4 years, and now peter upload it....AMAZING

[@PeterHollens]

That's dedication!! I love it :D I'm glad you liked my version!

[@WillIAmAm]

Peter Hollens of course i love it! you and your wife are the best!!

[@user_xyz]

Peter + Disney songs = perfection 😍👌 So maybe now 'One of Us' or 'Can you feel the love tonight' from Lion King? 😉

[@trouts4]

Anastasia is not a Disney movie, and neither is this song.

[@Troe1505]

I am so sorry =) Anastasia is made by Dreamworks =) (Which is one of the reasons I personally prefer Dreamworks) It is a common misconception =)

[@PeterHollens]

thanks for the suggestions! :)

[@user_xyz]

okay, sorry, my fault😯but still Peter should do something from Disney 😁

[@user_xyz]

Peter Hollens you're welcome 😊

[@aristokat7877]

I want to thank you and your wife, this song has always been my favorite after I heard it in the Anastasia credits. For the past 6 months, my life has been a cycle of depression and misery. But recently I've been listening to both of your songs and it has always brought up emotions that I thought I lost. This week has been the best week I've had in these past months. So thank you so much too the both of you.

[@joannahansen5049]

I love it when y'all do duets!!! If you ever stop doing them you will break the hearts of so many fans!!

[@PeterHollens]

Ha, well I will make sure to keep doing them! 😉

[@joannahansen5049]

YESS!!!!!!!!!

[@AlleluiaElizabeth]

Totally sang along to every note. lol I've loved this song since I got the movie's soundtrack back in the day on CD. Great song! (And great formal dress, Evynne. Looked just like her. )

[@marazilda94]

How can a couple be so talented? Congratulations on making a song that defined my childhood justice. I have four exams on Monday but now I'm stuck listening to both versions on loop. It's impossible to choose the better one and the video is just the sweetest thing ever!

[@PeterHollens]

thank you so much Mara! Best of luck on your exams, you're going to crush them! :)

[@marazilda94]

Peter Hollens You're welcome :) You guys made my day! And holy freaking cow I honestly didn't think I would receive a reply! *breathes* Thanks, sure hope so! :)

[@feerrnn]

One good + two of the best voices the result could not be better. Ty Peter and Evynne

[@PeterHollens]

thanks for the love, Fernando!! :D

[@carollabelle8653]

I would absolutely LOVE for you & Evynne to sing "Instrument of Peace" as a duet. Your music together is my Happy Place😊. Thank you, Carol

[@o0bluemilk0o]

I was obsessed with the movie when it came out. I had this song as a single on tape and played it so much it broke.

[@rinharuka3389]

I loved Anastasia I had it on vhs and was/is always my favorite this will alway be in my heart

[@bonnie4167]

I can't believe I haven't heard you and Evynne together before! This is so beautiful. Thank you. I vote for both videos!

[@ApplePie1994]

This was my first movie as a kid that I absolutely love I have my vhs tape and dvd now I love this movie and sound track

[@francesdelzer8468]

This was so beautiful it brought tears to my eyes! Definitely brought back childhood memories of watching this wonderful film over and over. My "Frozen" I guess! Love it Peter and Evynne as usual!

[@PeterHollens]

Thanks Frances :-)

[@johanvankesteren8390]

This is the most beautiful song ever this song makes me cry so beautiful great great awesome❤❤❤❤

[@reynajimenez4178]

I've never seen Anastasia, but watching this I really want to see it now! This is so amazing especially since your'e doing a duet with Evynne! I love you guys

[@PeterHollens]

[@jonahbaltazar9738]

[@PeterHollens]

[@megadisneygeek]

I love how its you and your wife singing this to each other! Posting this to my bride's social media wall. Love the lyrics!!

[@jannsamo4209]

awww don't know why im tearing up...I love this song,

[@Loulizabeth]

Thank you for doing this amazing song, a real top favourite for me from animated films. I've repeatedly listened to this so many times. I love both versions and you both sound so great and as for how you both look, just incredibly in character. Thanks again.

[@PeterHollens]

Thank you so much, I'm happy you enjoyed our covers!! 🙂

[@devondesan2693]

Two of the most talented singers i've ever heard, great job as always

[@PeterHollens]

You're too kind! ♥

[@glaxatore]

love both videos but have to say that Peter's version flows and draws out the essences of the song's message. Both are beautiful covers of an amazing song from a wonderful and my all time Favorite Movie! Thank you both!

[@cate384]

I have been listening to both versions of this song on repeat for half an hour now, and I can't decide which one I love most! I personally declare a tie--they're both so beautiful!!!

[@PeterHollens]

Well, that's not the worst answer you could give ;) I'm actually really happy you like both versions so much!!

[@michaeldomeier]

I love Anastasia but I never see it talked about. I think it's heavily under appreciated. Glad to hear this!! Love it.

[@jakerebadavia7866]

This song means so much to me. this song is the reason I began singing!! Loved It. 💗💗💗💗💗. I was almost crying!!

[@sarahjones475]

I love this so much! The music from Anastasia was some of the first I learned to play by ear. It's still one of my favorite movies, and my 4 yr old son loves it too!

[@PeterHollens]

awesome!!! thanks Sarah :)

[@juliadrumond1488]

I love when you sing togheter, makes me so happy. Hope all the best for you two.

[@AnaxErik4ever]

YAY! I never thought the first modern love song I remember from my childhood would sound great a cappella, but you made it happen. Thanks from a real life Anastasia (Ana).
