I love how haunting Cyndi Lauper's version sounds. Bea Arthur's performance seemed very comical at times relaxed in a great way, which alleviates the dark nature of this underappreciated number - from a favourite of mine! Thanks for this Aurora, and for preserving Broadway and West End history! Keep up the great content.
I know Shawn’s translation was polarizing to say the least, but I’ve always thought his lyrics, particularly for this, were incredible and quite evocative. Thank you so much for preserving this number ❤
She (Cyndy Lauper) was one of the two reason to see this production. The other being Jim Dale. There were no other reasons. I'd never seen so many audience members leave during an intermission in my life. Which was a shame as the 2nd act was better than the first.
I am so in love with Bea Arthur's vocal range.
Cyndi Lauper's performance is perfect in this song, she's a woman of so many talents, always great to see her.
Thoughts on the production as a whole aside, Lauper’s performance has stayed with me for the past 17 years.

Wow, what an awesome performance by Cyndi Lauper.
Two great artists. Brilliant to watch. Thank you Aurora. You never fail to enrich us.

Fascinating
Amazing, thanks for sharing!!
Cyndi deserved a Tony nom for her performance!
I’m still puzzled why this (2006) production was never given a cast recording
Particularly since the cast had two established music artists - Cindy Lauper and Nellie McKay!
I need Cyndi to fulfill her destiny as Mrs Lovett
Cyndi and Alan should replace Mr.Groban and Ms. Ashford when their contracts are up.
Cyndi is great in the new Sweeney based show on Prime!
go ahead and replace them now 🙄

Funny how I had the same morbid thoughts.
Cyndi, yes! Alan…not sure anyone would trust him to sing that score.
