Christmas at the Movies

Here's a cut from the 1998 album "Christmas at the Movies" by pianist Michael Chertock.
I've had the CD since it first came out and it's really nice, but due to my OSD, this particular track has always been my favorite because it features the song "You... You" from the 1970 musical version of "Scrooge."
This haunting song by Leslie Bricusse is kinda/sorta "sung" by Albert Finney while thinking about his lost love.
It's mashed up here with the similar sounding "Once Upon a December" from the 1997 animated feature "Anastasia."
An interesting tie-in with this song is that the lyrics (not heard here) are by Lynn Ahrens, who also wrote the lyrics for "A Christmas Carol: The Musical." Throw in that Kelsey Grammer who played Scrooge in the TV-movie of that musical also does voicework in "Anastasia" and you come back around again!
In any event, give it a listen:
