My LiveJournal: Sweeney Todd

Sweeney Todd.

I finally watch Sweeney Todd at the theater. A masterpiece i must say. Filled with a little humor here and there and a whole load of "chilli sauce" blood every where. It's just like Johnny Depp to take up such roles. That is so him. Reasons for me liking Sweeney Todd:
  1. There's some gore in it - the minced body part are gross.
  2. It's a freaking musical.
  3. A story of revenge with a dose of humor.
  4. Johnny Depp.
  5. Johnny Depp singing.

And if you're observant and an avid Harry Potter fan, you'll notice something.
Mrs. Lovett is Bellatrix Lestrange in Harry Potter.
Judge Turpin is Severus Snape in Harry Potter.
Beadle Bamford (Judge Turpin's sidekick) is Peter Pettigrew in Harry Potter.

Observant ain't I?



You can listen to Sweeney Todd's Original Soundtrack here:

You should listen to this song,
"Not While I'm Around"
Really sweet.


Not while I'm around - Toby and Mrs. Lovett

Nothing's gonna harm you, not while I'm around.
Nothing's gonna harm you, no sir, not while I'm around.

Demons are prowling everywhere, nowadays,
I'll send 'em howling,
I don't care, I got ways.

No one's gonna hurt you,
No one's gonna dare.
Others can desert you,
Not to worry, whistle, I'll be there.

Demons'll charm you with a smile, for a while,
But in time...
Nothing can harm you
Not while I'm around...

Being close and being clever
Ain't like being true
I don't need to,
I would never hide a thing from you,
Like some...

No one's gonna hurt you, no one's gonna dare
Others can desert you,
Not to worry, whistle, I'll be there!
Demons'll charm you with a smile, for a while
But in time...
Nothing can harm you
Not while I'm around...




I saw this comment on youtube which i thought was really witty.
