there's so many incredible lines here honestly, this is actually my first time in years re-listening to this song. I knew I really liked it as a child but had no idea how genius it was until now
the "now i fear i'll never be free" of Annalise in contrast to Erika's "soon i will forever be free" 😭💔 i understand now how sad and less hopeful of freedom Annalise's life is than Erika's. i'm 22 now
Man Barbie movies back then were just OUT there... We got a gay icon who originally plans to marry the princess, then when that backfires he kidnaps her, THEN TRIES TO MARRY THE MOM WHEN THAT PLAN DOESNT WORK- AND we also have Madame literally saying 'Your parents should have let you starve if they didn't want a debt.' But god this movie is still a personal favorite.

I remember owning the dvd… I would go to the song option, and replay this song. I’d stand on a stool singing with my friend dancing in the background. The stuff he did for me 😂
"Free" is a duet sung by Anneliese and Erika in Barbie as The Princess and the Pauper. Bertie also has a line. Anneliese sings about wanting to have more freedom, and marry someone she is truly in love with, whilst Erika sings about repaying her parents' debt to Madame Carp and pursuing a singing career. The song is featured in the Barbie Sings! The Princess Movie Song Collection soundtrack album. It has similarities to I Wish I Had Her Life from Barbie: The Princess & The Popstar in that Princess Tori and popstar singer Keira wish to be free from their duties and have another life.

[ANNELIESE]
All my life, I've always wanted
To have one day just for me
Nothing to do and for once nowhere I need to be
With no lessons, lords or lunches
Or to-do list in the way
No one to say when to eat or read or leave or stay
That would be the day
[ERIKA]
All my life, I've always wanted
To have one day for myself
Not waking up with a pile of work on every shelf
With no hems in need of pressing
And no sleeves in disarray
No wedding gown with a thousand stitches to crochet
And no debt to pay
[BERTIE, spoken]
Madame Carp!
[MADAME CARP, spoken]
What do you think I'm running here? A cabaret?
[ERIKA, spoken]
I would've said a debtor's prison.
[MADAME CARP, spoken]
Keep laughing, you'll be working for me for another thirty-seven years.
[ERIKA, spoken]
But I've already paid off more than half!
[MADAME CARP, spoken]
But there's an interest, isn't there? Your parents should have thought of that before they borrowed so much.
[ERIKA, spoken]
They did it to feed me!
[MADAME CARP, spoken]
Their mistake.
[ERIKA]
What would it be like to be
[ANNELIESE]
What would it be like to be free
[ERIKA]
Free
[ANNELIESE]
Free to try crazy things
[ERIKA]
Free from endless IOUs
[ANNELIESE]
Free to fly
[ERIKA]
Free to sing
[ANNELIESE]
And marry whom I choose
[QUEEN GENEVIEVE, spoken]
I'm so sorry, my darling. But as you know, it is vital you marry King Dominick. It is the only way to take care of our people.
[ANNELIESE, spoken]
I know. It's my duty.
[QUEEN GENEVIEVE, spoken]
Oh! And look! Another engagement gift!
[ANNELIESE]
You would think that I'm so lucky
That I have so many things
I'm realizing that every present comes with strings
[ERIKA]
Though I know I have so little
My determination's strong
People will gather around the world to hear my song
[BERTIE]
Can I come along?
[ANNELIESE]
Now I fear I'll never be
[ERIKA]
Soon I will forever be
[ANNELIESE & ERIKA]
Free
I close my eyes and feel myself fly
A thousand miles away
I could take flight, but would it be right?
My conscience tells me "Stay"
[ANNELIESE]
I'll remain forever royal
[ERIKA]
I'll repay my parents' debt
[ANNELIESE & ERIKA]
Duty means doing the
Things your heart may well regret
[ANNELIESE]
But I'll never stop believing
[ERIKA]
She can never stop my schemes
[ANNELIESE & ERIKA]
There's more to living than
Gloves and gowns and threads and seams
In my dreams
I'll be free
I missed all these sounds😊✌
I remember owning the dvd… I would go to the song option, and replay this song. I’d stand on a stool singing with my friend dancing in the background. The stuff he did for me 😂

When I watched some of Barbie movies I thought of Katherine Heigl as my experience and as well as Will Arnett and even the nut job before and after.
I even thought of The Lion King 11/2, Catscratch and Over The Hedge before and after as my experience.
why don't the dolls just sing this
i hav a cd from that movie😂
"One message foundation "channel shows the truth ❤ the guy was stabbed 😢because of it.
Anna Elise And Mickey alike Prince
