LYRICS - My Petersburg - Anastasia Original Broadway CAST RECORDING

If you enjoy the music please support the cast and buy the song on iTunes :)

[@ArtleyDraws]

This man's voice is just perfection omg

[@chloejewell]

Ashley Jane his name is Derek Klena, he was in an Off Broadway project called Dogfight (written by the minds behind Dear Evan Hansen) and is absolutely fantastic! He has a heartwrenching song called Come Back (I think??) It's the second to last song and is about coming back from the war and feeling guilty he wasn't one of the ones who died.

[@elizahamilton8750]

*DEREK KLENAAAAAAAAAAAAA*

[@DanielaDearest]

Derek's voice is so dreamy. It's unreal.

[@BereNiceTube]

Reminded me of 'Freeze your brain' from Heathers, loooved it

[@rocknroll20024]

Yes it does thank goddesses I am not the one boy one who thought of that

[@Ninetalespika]

Berenice Stoecklin omg your right

[@yarns8117]

so THATS the vibe im getting thanks

[@pepperfellover]

I was literally going to write that

[@maddylime121]

Ok good I wasn’t alone

[@71crm]

Dimitri is kind of a Russian Aladdin-this song even reminds me of the songs in Aladdin-the Broadway version that is!

[@grace5199]

I thought I was the only one who had that "One Jump Ahead" vibe.

[@Olivia-tb9kk]

Sameeeee!

[@purpleshamrock17]

So, he's not a kitchen boy in this version? Because I always liked that he had a connection to Anastasia's past.

[@Hannah-lr1uc]

purpleshamrock17 no he's not but he still has a connection - if you listen to "in a crowd of thousands"

[@purpleshamrock17]

Thanks! I've listened to it and I understand completely now. Also, the song is great too.

[@melobree]

derek's voice is so perfect i love himm

[@bettinap3288]

Bri Kyle me too

[@UmisTsukishiro00]

This may very well be my favourite song in the whole musical!

[@whizzerow]

If you change “Petersburg” with “Agrabah” and “Russian” with “Persian”, it turns into a song about Aladdin.

[@thatsroughbuddy4712]

Lol it really does

[@danaoprisan2272]

hahaha surprisingly true

[@janehughes7925]

Don't you guys think this song sounds like Dancing Through Life from Wicked

[@wheresmyeggs]

Yeah, there’s actually a video of him singing it at Feinstein’s

[@lydiadeetz1292]

Jane Hughes it als sounds like heathers freeze your brain

[@90scedricedits54]

why does this remind me of "freeze your brain"

[@lizziekaptain843]

Reminds me of Bottom Line from Newsies and The Wizard and I from Wicked. Like if the songs were to have child this would be the result. But that's me.

[@ileyhansen438]

Heck yes! Even though Bottom Line is a bit villainous this song totally resembles it

[@pip1278]

1:50 why do I love this line so much ?!? 😍

[@charlottemarshall795]

This gives me such a Dancing Through Life (Wicked) / Granger Danger (AVPM) vibe

[@GerbilGirl987]

Not even gonna lie, I'm like 40,000 of these views.

[@elizahamilton8750]

THIS COMMENT NEEDS MORE LIKES

[@mitchellbachman9797]

Same though lol

[@neroya0119]

I'm pretty sure it's "spires to the piers", not "spiders"

[@Hannah-lr1uc]

Jenis Kim yes it is but I can't change it unfortunately :(

[@Potatoesop]

Lol mistakes happen! Good job with the video

[@3NU]

Any other young tenors out there think "audition song" when they hear this song?

[@CrapBag]

Defintiely

[@jakezolomij3899]

Totally

[@carlogiandenoprapalma2452]

Yeah this song is just perfect.

[@KlinjollyCraft]

Absolutely

[@KlinjollyCraft]

Unfortunately it's gonna be super overused

[@davidemanfredi1422]

... the wizard and IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII ... but mostly, meeeeeeereeee

[@chloedavies3699]

Happier version of Freeze Your Brain :D

[@chvp4605]

His voice for some reason reminds me of J.D. and this song gives me slightly ''Freeze Your Brain'' vibes, with a bit of Newsies strife. Lol, very musical nerdy of me.😅✨

[@melodydyk6170]

Sounds a bit like Jack Kelly.... Nevermind. This sounds EXACTLY like Jack Kelly.

[@doradominguez5709]

Melody Dyk yes another fansie

[@ileyhansen438]

yESS FANSIE!!

[@katiem5051]

Ohmygod you're so right

[@melodyfussell829]

Maybe if he's played by Corey Cott, but I can't hear it as Jeremy Jordan.

[@rorymoore9269]

And the song is very Jack Kelly esque, no?

[@kristamasucci5430]

Anyone else getting serious Wicked vibes?

[@gracehart4117]

This would be so fun to play in an orchestra .

[@TheJuliarose02]

bless you for uploading these

[@katiebrennan1251]

[@Hannah-lr1uc]

Hannah Mowbray are you going to uplaod "Still, I pray?"

[@Hannah-lr1uc]

Depends if people want a lyric video or just the music bc someone's uploaded the music already so there's not much point in me uploading it too. If you'd like a lyric video I'll make one but if not then here's the channel with all the songs : kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z5TZe6JpZs96nNE

[@katiebrennan1251]

[@Hannah-lr1uc]

[@Apples2aco]

I HAVE A PROBLEM. I LOVE SINGING. and I'm just ur common asian girl. AND I GREATLY ENJOY BROADWAY SONGS. But my problem is that I end up ENJOYING SINGING a lot broadway songs sung by guys. WHAT DO I DO ...?

[@jessieh0928]

Nothing. Just change the pitch to something you can sing if that's the issue. There's nothing wrong with liking something

[@Potatoesop]

Sing your heart out.....

[@rorymoore9269]

Raise it by an Octave if it makes you More comfortable. Tweak the pitches till it fits your range.

[@cristinasjourney]

[@cherieroyer6827]
