Sweeney todd music

Answer 1

This is the music from the movie, which is based on a hit Broadway musical.

1.No Place Like London- Antony and Sweeney Todd are on their way to London. This dreary song shows Antony's hopeful attitude and the truth from the experiences of Sweeney Todd.

2.The Worst Pies in London- Mrs. Lovett sings of how nobody wants the pies that she makes. She knows why, too. They taste just dreadfully awful. This spiel would not make anybody want to have a taste.

3.Poor Thing- Mrs. Lovett sings of a man that once lived in the room upstairs and of his tragic tale of love and loss. By the end, Todd gives it away that he IS the mysterious Benjamin Barker she was singing of.

4.My Friends- This is another duet between Mrs. Lovett and Sweeney Todd. He sings to his knives that he so dearly missed while they have been buried away in the upstairs friend. She sings to him in an almost haunting longing for his companionship and love.

5. Green Finch and Linnett Bird- Johanna sings of being locked away like the green finch. She wants to know how this bird can still sing even when it is locked away in such a small cage when it should be out in the bird. The metaphorical song shows Johanna's loneliness.

6.Alms, Alms - This short song is the between the beggar woman and atony warning of troubles to come.

7. Johanna- Antony sings of the maiden locked away. Although he has only seen and heard her, he longs to be with her.

8.Pirelli's Miracle Elixir- Toby sings of the miraculous elixir that can make anybody's hair grow. Todd and Lovett sing in opposition trying to make the crowd realize that it is a scam.

9.The Contest- Pirelli and Todd sing in a shave off to see who can shave the fastest and cleanest. It seems as though Pirelli will win, but Todd pulls out a win in the end.

10. Wait- This song is just of Mrs. Lovett trying to calm everyone down.

11.Ladies in Their Sensitivities- In the song, Beadle and the Judge sing of "wooing" Johanna into being the Judge's. This sets up his need to go to the barber.

12.Pretty Woman- Todd and the Judge have a song of "small talk". Right when he least expects it, Sweeney raises his knife at the end of the song.... And then, an interuption

13. Epiphany- Sweeney Todd is angry at his failed murder. In this song, Sweeney Todd decides he will kill as much as he has to until he can get to the one throat he most longs for.

14.A Little Priest- Sweeney Todd and Mrs. Lovett sing a dark, twisted song of what to do with all the men that Todd is going to kill. It is just the boost to buisness that Mrs. Lovett needs.

15.Johanna (Reprise) - Antony and Todd sing of the beautiful Johanna while the begger still tries to warn against the horrible evils lurking around Fleet Street.

16.God, That's Good! - Again the begger woman is lurking around. Everyone marvels over the new and improved pies of Mrs. Lovett. Toby tries to attract costumers in for a taste.

17.By the Sea- Mrs. Lovett dreams of a wonderful, romantic life married to Sweeney Todd and living in a cute little house by the sea.

18.Not While I'm Around- Toby is beginning to grow aware of Todd's mysterious doings. He swears to protect Mrs. Lovett from the deranged man. Little does he know, she is in on it as well.

19. In the Final song, Todd kills the beggar woman and then discovers that it is truly his wife. Antony hides Johanna where she is almost killed, until Todd realizes who she is. Todd also betrays Judge and finally has at him. He turns on Mrs. Lovett for lying to him about his wife, Lucy, and throws her in the oven. Toby, who they were searching for then "surprises" Todd and ends his life.
