I love at 2:15 when she sings "a woman alone" and flirts with him, looking him up and down. And, of course, that is her motivation. She is looking for a man, while all he can see is revenge.

I saw Sweeney on Broadway in 1980, near the end of the run, and I could swear I saw Angela and Len in the roles--but I may be remembering their voices on the recording. Maybe the performance I watched was Dorothy Loudon and George Hearn, who replaced them. In any case, I was also in it, as a member of the ensemble, in Denver at the Bonfils Theatre in 1983. We had a pretty fab Mrs. Lovett ourselves. Patti singing this is *tremendous* and vocally unmatched--what a set of lungs! I do think Lansbury got the accent, the characterization, and the entire esprit better than anyone since... especially since she created the role and Sondheim wrote it for her voice! It was a (grim, dark, powerful) joy to be part of our production in Denver so long ago... thrilled I had the opportunity!

I would've loved to have seen Patti Lupone or Elaine Paige as Evita, but I think Madonna was the right choice for the film version, as was Antonion Banderas. I don't understand why people can't enjoy and appreciate seeing how different artists perform in the same role when everyone brings something new and exciting to it.

She’s a very good actress with a spectacularly powerful and expressive voice. Personally I think she’s not great casting for the part. She’s so powerful, she rivals Sweeney. And as clear as she makes everything, again my opinion, it’s almost too clear. It feels really technical. That said, she deftly brings so many great touches to this song. She’s truly a masterful actress for sure. I just miss the vulnerability and oddball flakiness that Lansbury brought to the role.
