Perhaps it is that you have never realized that it is a disco classic...

Enjoy!

There, I fixed it. This is what happens when you're working 2 jobs, 7 days a week with no days off for 3 months. It was sent to me misspelled & I passed it on. I most humbly apologize for my offending the spelling police. I will endeavor to never let it happen again. My shame knows no bounds.
I try to spread joy & get yelled at. sigh.

*EDIT* I apologize for my crankiness. I was up until 2am doing voiceover work, & then had to leave for my day job at 8 am this morning, so I'm just really tired.
I still want everyone to enjoy the link, though!!

Anyone else wanna sign my "Sondheim Remakes Saturday Night Fever" petition?

But can it compare to disco Ethel Merman?

Is it just a song or is there a visual something that I'm not getting? The music is HILARIOUS!

I'm glad it was enjoyed.
& it's just the song. I think I would have been frightened if there was an elaborate dance number...straight razors reflecting off disco balls...Angela Lansbury in hot pants...Argh...my mental eye...it burns...the goggles do nothing...

The disco version of The Ballad of Sweeney Todd was released on a 3-CD compilation called A Collector's Sondheim years ago (Sunday in the Park With George was his newest work at the time). I don't know if it's still in print or not.
