For The First Time In Forever
"For the First Time in Forever" is a song from Disney's 2013 animated feature film '' Frozen'', with music and lyrics composed by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez.

Both versions are sung by American actresses Kristen Bell and Idina Menzel who provide the speaking and the singing voices of Princess Anna and Queen Elsa, respectively.
