Almost There - The Princess and the Frog - MP3 instrumental karaoke

One of the tropes established by musical theater, and reinforced with Disney storytelling, is the idea of a “Want Song"—a song where a character lays out their motivations in an impassioned monologue. “Almost There,” from Disney’s The Princess and the Frog, is one of those songs. Written by the legendary singer-songwriter Randy Newman, and performed by singer and actress Anika Noni Rose (in her role as Tiana), “Almost There” is a jaunty, uptempo number about the importance of chasing your dreams through hard work. It became one of the most memorable songs from The Princess and the Frog. The song is performed by the character of Tiana as she expresses her excitement to her mother Eudora about how close she is to accomplishing her dream of successfully opening her very own restaurant. “Almost There” was nominated for Best Original Song at the 82nd Academy Awards. Additionally, the song was dubbed in 41 different languages.
