Sweeney Todd - A Little Priest video free download

I went to one production of ST with a couple of friends of mine, one of whom was the priest of my parish. When Mrs. Lovett (who was another friend of ours) took out the pies, she made eye contact with the priest and sang the line "It's priest, have a little priest." It probably got the biggest laugh in the show.

Len is definitely my favorite Sweeney Todd, with nods to the others as well. He has quite a deep voice and is good at those really low notes Todd sings, which gives his version of the character that creepey sort of tone without having to make so intense. Plus his laughs in this song send shivers down my spine. Not to mention, Angela Lansbury! FREAKIN' ANGELA LANSBURY! MRS. POTTS A DERANGED PIEMAKER!!!

I'm in a Stephen Sondheim vortex. What a fabulous, prolific artist the likes of which I cannot for the life of me think of a parallel. Stick to Priest!

Kaitlin Barton

I just realized Catherine Tate would make a great Mrs. Lovett. She's got a decent voice and perfect comedic timing

Everyone has their own personal favorite casts and performances. Personally, I think Cariou and Lansbury are untouchable, but my personal favorites are Michael Ball and Imelda Staunton

Something just occurred to me: Sweeney calls her Mrs. Lovett. What happened to Mr. Lovett...? *thinks for a second* never mind I think I know...

while it's delightfully morbid. this song has a valid point about the social injustices happening around the time Sweeny was set.

Personally, I would have gone with Meryll Streep. When they make a film remake of SWEENEY TODD, she'd be a superb Nellie Lovett (Don't tell me otherwise or you'll face the full extent of HER wrath!!!). As for the title character, while Johnny sings well, for a remake I feel like it's probably a tie between someone like Dennis Quaid or Colin Firth. Solve for PI. ;)

To whomever thought for an instant that Helena BC was better than Dame Ange - are you deaf? This is and always will be the definitive Mrs Lovett. Angela Lansbury is a major unsung hero in this world. I hope we all come to see that.

SO much wordplay. It's like the greatest lyrics in the entire production. "Mercy no sir, look closer, you'll notice it's grocer!" "Looks thicker...more like vicar!" "Nooooo it has to be grocer (which kinda doubles as "grosser" as in "ew") it's green!!" XD

Fop...what a word...

Good sound. This was stolen from me 20 years ago; the album. Great to hear again.

Shepherd's pie peppered with actual shepherd on top.

This song is beautifully morbid. I sing it with my sister all the time and our parents just shake their heads and sigh

ThePeterBluth

I love Len Cairou's Sweeney (as well as Michael Cervaris' and Johnny Depp's) but George Hearn will always be Sweeney Todd to me.

Rhys Burns

This song is about their plans but I also see hear how the lyrics flirt and filly today I've seen a peformance by West Yorkshire play house that depicts this

Nikolas Dean

Patti has a good voice but Angelas voice is better for the role

James Brewer

no no no no! Patti lupone :)

4 people don't get the drift.

This is too happy . The 2007 version with Johnny and Helena is a lot darker and I honestly think it sounds better .
