Good, but I thought Bill Sykes was meant to be scary? No offence.

Here is a better version of the song, although the one linked doesn't follow the rhythm nearly as well. A combination of these two would be perfect.

This Bill Sykes is not nearly as nasty as he should be, too much of a burly, pompous, haughty voice. He needs a gravely, nasty voice, not a beautiful singing voice. Excellent singing, just does not fit the Bill Sykes character.

This is one of the best versions of this song out there in my opinion. Many try to over play it and end up yelling almost the whole song. I love the control he has. His blow ups are not over the top and the softer way of singing makes him even MORE menacing and scary! GREAT job!!! Enjoyed it very much! :)

Why is Bill singing? in the 1968 Oliver musical Oliver Reed as Bill would never ever sing..
I shall pass your kind words on to Charlie when I next see him - He will be thrilled with your remarks. F

The song is included in the original stage show. I knew Ollie & he couldn't sing. The film was directed by his uncle, Sir Carol Reed so I expect that was the reason the song was omitted from the film
