Getting Married Today

My favorite Sondheim song in the world, and it comes from Sondheim's musical COMPANY. I'm trying to satisfy the serious Sondheim fan (nice alliteration there) so I'm playing it in its original tempo (like the OBC version -- Beth Howland). In my opinion, I'd say that's the right tempo. Carol Burnett's is a little on the slow side, while the revival (Heather Laws) is a teeny bit too speedy. Although I like it to be as fast as possible, I don't want it to be TOO fast like the latter one. So I'm pretty much playing this one as fast as it should get. Comments are very appreciated.

I saw it, and I agree. The best version of the song I think I have ever heard.

I also recommend Alice Ripley's interpretation of it.
