    I recently discovered George Hearn, and I’ve been fangirling over him ever since. I’m mad I’m just now seeing him.

    This song is not from the show 'Do I hear a Waltz'. Music and lyrics for this song were written by Sondheim for an earlier project - a possible tv musical for Judy Holliday, but it never got beyond the talking stage. The Rodgers show came later. (See Sondheim's book ''Look, I Made a Hat" page 386.)

      Thanks for setting this straight. I wonder if Rodgers knew that Sondheim had written an earlier version of the song.

    Hearn is the sort of wonderful voice one used to hear on Broadway. How He (and that sort of expertise) is missed!

    Excellent calming music for my terminal brother. Sondheim relaxed his fidgeting and he relaxed.

    @calamitygulch - I'm sorry I don't know the history, but your premise makes sense to me. There may have been licensing issues that couldn't be overcome.

    This is a new “Do I Hear a Waltz”. Not the one I’m familiar with.

    "There's only one show I really think was a waste of time: Do I Hear a Waltz? I did it as a favour for some people; I wrote the lyrics, and Richard Rodgers wrote the music. It's an ugly metaphor, but I always compare it to a dead baby: it looks perfectly fine, but it does not have one moment of life." -- Sondheim, 2012

    "Do I Hear a Waltz" is Broadway's "Dylan and the Dead" - a collaboration between two amazing artists that ends up being each artist's nadir, or close to it. This song is really quite banal. Good singing though.

      this song is NOT from the show "do I hear a waltz"...and the music is not Rodger's...he wrote better tunes

    Depp was a good Sweeney Todd.... You've got to remember that the film was set out as a horror and not a musical for the film and therefore Depp was perfect for the part. Also, the portrayal of Sweeney in the film is very different to the portrayal of him on stage! I respect you have an opinion but please don't force it upon others...

    • @AndrewRudin

      Depp AND Bonham Carter were both ghastly. and the whole concept entirely missed the point of SWEENY. Phooey.

  • @nondescript2892
    @nondescript2892 Рік тому

    Not bad...but Rodger's tune is better

  • @vittoriostoraro

    Since Depp (Like most of the films cast) sucked as Sweeney, I'm not sure how seriously to take your evaluation. Also, as good as Hearn was, please remember that the original Sweeney was played by Len Cariou.

    @ttempahsbsngintunes They could have at least had someone dub his vocals. Vocally, he was (and is) horrible for the part.
