Most of you have maybe seen this before but I found it online last night and was fascinated. Even though I know this entire score backwards and forwards, hearing Sondheim trying to sing his own songs, and especially do Mrs. Lovett's parts without any kind of an accent is hilarious. Interesting to see how parts of it have changed, and the way they describe parts of it is practically poetic. I love hearing the assembled people laugh at the funny parts;it's interesting to think they were probably some of the first people to ever hear these songshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mRkoHSTNUUc

Oh, you're welcome! I didn't even do anything weird to find it, I just landed in a dodgy corner of Youtube and chanced upon it!
