04 Anastasia - In the Dark of the Night

[1stbrasscaptain]

Villains always have the best music...

[doctrow37]

Bugs. Singing bugs. Rasputin is singing with singing beetles.

augh

[doctrow37]

@sugarskullsxx

If you watch the original video, you'll find out...

On second thought, don't.

[Heylilvelvet]

I've always loved this song! its got a great beat to it!!

[MrJmrk92]

Anyone else only watch this movie like 15 years after it came out cause they didnt get to see it when they were little?

[TheGundamGirl17]

@MrJmrk92 Not because I didn't get to see it when I was little, but because the one time I did see it, it scared the living daylights out of me. 15 years later, it's much less scary. Still a little scary though... :)

[msimone123]

=_= this song is too catchy

[RandomPickle1]

Wait..... This was sung by the same guy who voiced Pooh and Tigger?.... Dear god

[doctrow37]

When I do my homework while listening to this song, I feel like I'm conquering a country...

[sardeess]

we know that one dislike is resputin, lol comon bro we kno its you

[MsMerlin15]

Rasputin was a evil man, in this song it really shows you how desperate to kill the royals and Anastasia. That's why he didn't die from the poision, ect. He was

[rgur90x]

@MsMerlin15 Rasputin was a good friend of the Romanov family.

[MsMerlin15]

@rgur90x I know he was, but he turned on them during the revelation as he know his power would go, i could explain more but it get confusing.

[TheLossofMySanity]

@MsMerlin15 That was never proved as a fact. Someone just didn't like Rasputin enough to say that he betrayed them. They then still had contact with Rasputin until his murder in 1916.

[Lamporre]

@LockAndL0ad

That's very kind of you to suggest. Thanks :)

[XxCoinOperated13xX]

Is it weird of me to say that this was one of my favorite songs from when I was little? >__>

[TheDrawmaniac]

@XxCoinOperated13xX dude yes!!! Same here! Iloved this song! Resputin scared the crap outa me but I sitll loved his awesome song!

[Swanygrl]

DOOM HER

[Pale0Enchantress]

My mom when watching this movie pointed at the screen and shouted "It's a lich!" she said that because of me she now knows a lich when she sees one.

[britainfan4lyf]

aaah such a catchy song. used to watch this movie all the time

[BattyKellen]

I saw this film in theaters. Needless to say, this scene combined with that surround sound was unforgettable.

[ItThunderbolt]

epic.

[ItThunderbolt]

critic.

[1loverants]

There should be a metal version of this song. Like, by Dio.

[fxnavarro]

Personally I prefer this over Be Prepared and that's saying something because Be Prepared is one of the best animated movie songs around.

[80schicks]

This song is the BEST song in the whole movie. I love it! =]

[DONTMAKEMEBITEYOUU]

as soon as the ooo, aahh oooo's come in, i cant help but smile like a douchebag >:]

[TotallyElena]

I have a Top 10 Villain Songs Countdown video and this song is in it! : D

[otakugrl78]

Sounds bad ass until you find out whose singing with Rasputin.

[timeparadox888]

@otakugrl78 Actually it doesn't make the song bad, it makes beetles seem AWESOME.

[helloredpanda]

@otakugrl78 Can never take this song seriously again. :c

[sugarskullsxx]

@otakugrl78 wait who's singing with him?

[rockangel77773]

@otakugrl78 lol who?

[GoldenToraToraChan]

I love this movie.... its been so long since I've seen it

[Earthdemon1]

The beginning is so dramatic, I love it! 0:00 -0:54 :D

[MikaeliaRichardson]

This has to be the best soundtrack for an animated movie

[HelloYellowBird]

While this movie in general uses a lot of artistic licence on the history, Rasputin in real life was actually really, really creepy. From wikipedia "Three days later, Rasputin's body, poisoned, shot four times, badly beaten, and drowned, was recovered from the river. An autopsy established that the cause of death was drowning." Poisioned, shot, beaten... and he didn't die from it. o.o

[xoxGeekGirlxox]

@HelloYellowBird And he was a womaniser, believed he was magical.... He basically thought he was a Russian Jesus. I remember studying him in Highschool and we all agreed Rasputin was crazy and freaky...

[youchewpoop1]

@HelloYellowBird

he didn't die of poisoning because the poision used got inactive when the poisioners baked it in i thought cake.

he didn't died being shot because they didn' t hit a pulsing-vein, and beating almost never kills you.

The fact that he lived so long is mostly because he was darn lucky the assassins were a bunch of braindead morons.

[NekoYami1]

@HelloYellowBird He was also stabbed a number of times, and castrated(a blow to him because he was actually known for his extreme libido).

[digataplusavatarfan]

@HelloYellowBird But he was still "Russia's greatest love machine" XD

[yimiela32]

@HelloYellowBird He can't swim XD lol

[FilthEverywhere]

@HelloYellowBird He was also the castrated, and shoved through a hole in an icy river to drown him. They found his body downstream with ice crystals under his fingernails.

[DCdabest]

@HelloYellowBird

like a boss.....

[aAutumnHale]

Epicly badass. Nuff said.

[Elektrototem]

Is that Christopher Lloyd?

That's why anastacia kicks ass

[Joakim1400]

@Elektrototem No, it is in fact Jim Cummings as the singing voice

[LePhantomessa]

@Elektrototem Actually, this is Jim Cummings impersonating Christopher Lloyd, He's amazing. XD

[Kaiju17]

@LePhantomessa Impressive, but not quite as much as his work in The Lion King; replacing Jeremy Irons WHILE Irons was still in the song and sounding exactly like him. Although true Jim Cummings fans can spot the difference. Barely though

[Bluecho4]

@Kaiju17 Seriously, you pretty much have to know exactly where the two switch out to spot the difference. If you weren't even aware of the switch, you'd never have thought it happened.

[Elektrototem]

@LePhantomessa

amazing!

[jmharms21]

@Elektrototem

No, the person singing this song is Jim Cummings. Christopher Lloyd only provided Rasputin's speaking voice for this movie. Jim Cummings has provided voices over the years for Winnie vthe Pooh, Tigger, Scar's singing voice for the tail end of "Be Prepared" for "The Lion King", etc.

[Elektrototem]

@jmharms21

wow, Jim Cummings mst have a brilliant voice^^

thank you for the history lesson

[Elektrototem]

@jmharms21

wow Jim Cummings must have a brilliant voice

thank yo

[EvilTim001]

My first evil song.

[firelied]

Haha, I remember me and my cousins marching around singing along to this part, being the minions... little weirdos. Still great song.... IN THE DARK OF THE NIGHT EVIL WILL FIND HER!

[DarkAngel66647]

I love Rasputian as a bad guy and I love this song

[supermariofan03]

guess waht? I heard Don Bluth is returning to animating movies and he's thinking of one based on his Dragon's Lair games

[rosemaryironwood]

to sing this with all the different voices when you're home alone is fuckin awesome :)

[TheNewThirteen]

I've always thought this song was badass.

[TheHaxman999]

ending was perfect

[Lciava]

I love this song, I am addicted 8D

[PhilipTheBigOne]

The last 20-25 seconds are AMAZING!!! PURE AWESOMENESS!!!

Overall, a great song!!!

[heylovex3]

he always scread me when i was little.. lol

[gwriterk]

Definitely better without the visuals. The dancing bugs and...creature things sort of ruin the epicness.

[WumWip]

This song is bad ass

[ikecham]

this needs to be on broadway

[xEllsMusic]

i was 150th like!:P

[TravisTheVoodooman]

this song is fucking metal Oo \m/

[Queenofawesome25]

I was so happy when the Nostalgia Critic put this in his top 11 Villain songs list I love this song I'm weird I know lol. And it's better without the visuals.

[89KitKim]

Rasputin vs. The Shadow Man from The Princess and the Frog. Who would win?

[ilovemyman001]

@89KitKim I think the Shadow Man would because his shadows are more frightening and vicious imo. But both have a good chance. ;]

[89KitKim]

@ilovemyman001 It'd be a good match to watch. That much is certain. lol

[ilovemyman001]

@89KitKim LOL. Definitely. XD

[TheLunaFaye]

@RobEdmonds1 Nope this is Christopher Loyd the man who voiced Scar is Jeremy Ions

[jjjameson88]

@TheLunaFaye it's acctually Jim Cummings

A fantastic voice actir who also sang part of Be Prepared from the Lion King. He starts after the line, "You won't get a sniff without me!"

[firelily12]

@jjjameson88 i was just getting ready to say this song reminds me of be prepared from lion king XD

[demirocks645]

This could go to broadway.

[TheLunaFaye]

@demirocks645 that would be so kick ass to see this on Broadway!

[thecottingleyfairy]

i found this cd in a thrift store and i've been driving around for the last few weeks BLASTING these songs! and totally proud of it. i love anastasia :D

[lilrandomgizmo]

this is like the song for voldemort - no kidding!

[2468blackwolf]

i love this song, it's cool

[RobEdmonds1]

do you know what i like about this song.....its sung by jim cummings....he voiced winnie the pooh and tigger. Ya gotta love him.

[godofcrap42]

@RobEdmonds1 Isn't that the same guy who voiced Scar?

[pyrotech8285]

hated this movie. loved this song

[DimeraFan28]

I'm Still wondering what would it be like if, Prince Phobos (From W.I.T.C.H), or Jarith (from Labyrinth) Sang this song?.

[michaelforthriller]

reminds me of lordi sooo much !!!!

[DimeraFan28]

I'm Still Wondering What Would It Be Like If Either, Prince Phobos (From W.I.T.C.H), or Prince Diamond (from Sailor Moon), or Even Jareth (From The lybrinth) would Sing This Song?.

[Seanschemmelfan]

@DimeraFan28 Well david bowie is a good singer i don't know about the other two

[supermariofan03]

the only good don bluth movie in the 90s

[themonger42]

@supermariofan03 you didn't like the pebble and the penguin?

[supermariofan03]

@themonger42 it was okay but not as badass as this flick! I wonder why some people call this bad

[themonger42]

@supermariofan03 well the CG may have had a part.... but it may have been a case of "Disney bandwagon" haters.

tho i wish Don Bluth didn't go into hiding after Titan AE - id have loved to have seen more of his movies.

[supermariofan03]

@themonger42 I heard he's thinking of a an animated film based on his Dragon Lair games maybe it'll be good

[themonger42]

@supermariofan03

seriously? never heard of that but yeah maybe

usually game -> movie versions dont do that well in the boxoffice.

[supermariofan03]

@themonger42 what if it's animated?

[themonger42]

@supermariofan03

idk. probably be a direct to video type movie though.....

[supermariofan03]

@themonger42 I don't care either way it's still nice to hear he's still animating

[darklordt]

This song is pure Heavy Metal !

[helljumpr5150]

In any animated kids/adult/family film, the villian MUST have the best song.

[BlueAuraWolf]

@helljumpr5150

That instantly makes me think of Hellfire from The Hunchback of Notre Dame.

Favorite song from that one.

[M0nPetitChou]

@helljumpr5150 listen to friends on the other side from princess and the frog, Ill say their both the best :)

[19lpsOBSESSED49]

This is a pretty epic song, once you toss that vision of those colorful bugs singing out of your mind.

[DimeraFan28]

I wonder what would it be like if either prince phobos (from w.i.t.c.h) or Jareth (from lybrinth) ever sang this song?.

[AlchemistiD]

Stranglely, while listening to this without the visuals, I can't stop thinking "Negaduck has had enough of this shit".

[springerjkreb]

I love Jim Cummings. It's hard to believe that this was the voice of Winney the Pooh after Holloway retired. The man is a true vocal artist.

[TheJboy88]

As a wise man once said:

"I expect monsters singing and skeletons on guitars."

[kunoichiofthenight]

I hat how I lost this CD!-cries-

[kunoichiofthenight]

@kunoichiofthenight hate*

[TheSonicmaster2000]

i like this song. THIS SONG IS AWSOME!

[whockyshakira]

Why do I always like the villians song?

[CrimsonFox36]

love this song!

love this movie!

[EmilieSofie77]

Yeah I know its weird but I really like this song ^_^

[bean0329]

This is probably the peppiest dark song I've ever heard...

[Nessarose137]

I just freaking love this song!!!!

[ChristineHTH]

Am I the only one who thinks this tune is way to cheery for the lyrics? Especially the chorus makes me want to dance, rather than creeping me out..

[EvilKatz]

@ChristineHTH No, you're not the only one. It's a good song, catchy, but the tune's kinda Disneyfied compared to the lyrics. I s'pose it *is* a children's movie.

[Melizzle100]

@ChristineHTH have to admit that its a briliant song though :D

[kateandjaz1]

I love this song!

[cantosprofanae]

@Lamporre hhm i agree with u on the visuals, but in all fareness dude, the song from the movie sounds some what catchier in the movie than it does in the cd version, the cd version doesnt seem to have the same boomy beet as the movie, and the bass sucks in this one

[Lamporre]

@cantosprofanae Yes that is a sad but acceptable compromise. At least this version doesn't have the annoying squeaks of Balto all over the place :P

[cantosprofanae]

@Lamporre bartok. ye ur right

[Lamporre]

@cantosprofanae

Wow that was a fail on my part... but yeah I meant that little bat voiced by Hank Azaria, not the sled dog with his own franchise

[Bindilovervideo]

@Lamporre I love how you can miss a letter, and then write something that barely makes any sense

[SOSSonicfan]

@Lamporre You mean Bartok the white bat?

[Lamporre]

@SOSSonicfan ]

Yeah, sorry. Dunno how I mixed those names up...

[SOSSonicfan]

@Lamporre No, it's alright those things always happen. :)

[Queenofawesome25]

@Lamporre You mean Bartok the bat?

[Lamporre]

@Queenofawesome25

Yes, I meant him. It's a typo that I made somehow. My bad.

[aellolightly]

@Lamporre Bartok

[booknerd95]

@Lamporre I totally disagree. I thought the visuals were cute and funny, and even creepy in some areas

[Shanis1996]

Rasputin is just so wickedly AWESOME!!

[OnyxFlameGod]

best song in the movie. =p

[jesse48641]

love this song!
