yay! my favorite musical of all time! next to Phantom that is. when was this? you guys did a good job. was it for a school production?

[judas2610]

2003 - Ireland - not school production

[tonedawg2189]

I'd love to see the entire production if you could upload it

[TheQuestionBoy4]

This is one of the best songs in the show. However, you can't have it in the movie because you can't have random people standing there and singing. The orchestra sounds great.

[MithraMusic]

Wow you guys did a very good job with this. I'd ignore the person who asked if it was a school production, because this is on a much more professional level. Nicely done!

[MithraMusic]

@austin6229 It sounds a lot like "When Johnny Comes Marching Home." Is that what you're thinking of?

[shadowfire2468]

@austin6229 ...um... From Sweeney Todd, Demon Barber of Fleet Street... Duh.

[SupernaturalBaby08]

I would definitely audition to play Mrs. Lovett if they did this at my school. Well done. Are there other videos and songs that you can upload besides what you've already done? That would be great.

ive heard the opening song before on somethign else... whats it taken from?

[HampteenProductions]

Ooh gives me chills! in a good way.

[TheSweeneyToddMovie]

TheQuestionBoy4 raises a good point. the reason why most of the stuff was taken out of the movie is because of the issues with adapting the stage play to the movie

this is a very nice performance, the orchestra sounds awesome and so do the performers in this, awesome job

[FutureBwayStar]

Everyone looked so creepy in that, great job!

This is a great performance!

The music for this song WAS in the opening. I'm glad they did it they way they did, cause this singing would've been difficult to sit through with the way Burton did it.

this song was supposed to be in the film. depp's daughter was sick at the time of filming this number, and they had to discard it because he wasn't available and they were stuck for time..
