This is the official Sweeney Todd prayer, yeah I was really bored.
Our father who art in Fleet street,
Hallowed be thy name,
Thy revenge will come,
on earth as it is in London,
give us our daily shavings,
and forgive us our appetite,
as we forgive those who has a bigger appetite,
Save us from Judge Turpin,
and deliver us from all meat pies,
For Sweeney Todd, Mrs Lovett, Tobias now and forever
Amen

In February 2007 my class went to the cinema.We watched a Bully Herbig movie....Before the movie starts,the trailer of Sweeney Todd appears.I was so falle in love with Sweeney Todd there :P
My enemy was so scared of the trailer.After watchin the Bully movie my enemy wanted to beat me up,then I ran behind a big poster of ST.He was scared again...
Few days later I forgot the name of my "love".Since July 2007!(That was the date,when the DVD was in Austria.)I saw the article in a video/DVD magacine and I remembered him!!!Then one week before my 15th b-day I watched ST!What a feeling to see my "skunkman" again!Then the obsession started!
Then I had a lot of styles....
Alms Alms
Beggar Woman
Alms, alms for a miserable woman!
On a miserable chilly morning

Antony (spoken)
Mam, could you tell me who’s house this is?
Beggar Woman (spoken)
That? That's the great Judge Turpin's house, that is.
Antony (spoken)
And the young lady who resides there?
Beggar Woman (spoken)
Oh her? That' Johanna, his pretty little ward...
Keeps her snug he does. All locked up.
So don't you go trespassin' there or it’s a good whipping for you
or any other young man with mischief on his mind!
(sung)

A little jig jig. A little bounce around the bush.
Wouldja like to push me parsley? It looks to me dear that you got plenty there to push.
Alms! Alms! For a desperate woman!

Green finch, and linnet bird,
Nightingale, blackbird,
How is it you sing?
How can you jubilate
sitting in cages
never taking wing?
Outside the sky waits
beckoning!
Beckoning!
Just beyond the bars...
How can you remain
staring at the rain
maddened by the stars?
How is it you sing
anything?
How is it you sing?
Green finch. and linnet bird,
nightingale, blackbird
How is it you sing?
Whence comes this melody
constantly floating?
Is it rejoicing or merely aloaming?
Are you discussing?
Or fussing?
Or simply dreaming?
Are you crowing?
Are you screaming?
Ringdove and robinet
is it for wages?
Singing to be sold?
Have you decided it's safer in cages
singing when you're told?
My cage has many rooms
damask and dark...
Nothing there sings,
not even my lark.
Larks never will, you know,
when they're captive.
Teach me to be more
adaptive.
Ah...
Green Finch, and Linnet Bird,
nightingale, blackbird,
teach me how to sing.
If I cannot fly...
Let me sing.

I know there's already stories on here of how fans found out about sweeney todd, but i thought id like to share mine.
About seven months ago, like around June, i was looking up twilight parodies/spoofs and came across the hillywood show's twilight parody.(at the time, i didnt really know who they were.) i thought "wow, that was incredible!" so i went 2 their website and started watching their vids. and all of you who r a big fan of johnny depp, you'll love the show. so, i got 2 the sweeney todd episodes. i knew who sweeney todd was but i didnt really know the story. i just, you know, thought that he was killing people for no apparent reason:P i started to really like the music. that led me to buy the cd. which led me to buy the movie. which then led me 2 buy the movie companion book. when it came out 2 theaters and when i saw the trailers, i didnt pay much attention to it. now i do! oh ya and this was also how i am a big fan of johnny depp.

I would hane to say that Sweeney Todd and Mrs. Lovett put the fun in dysfunctional. I loved how Sweeney Todd and Mrs. Lovett would sing, dance and kill their customers on a daily bases like it was just a job. In my opinion Mrs. Lovett was by all means the more evil out of the two.
I really felt bad for Mrs. Lovett because she loved Sweeney Todd so much and he did not even notice her. The only time he would pay attention to her was when he needed her to do something for him.
It really is a shame because Mrs. Lovett would have made a great wife for Sweeney Todd that is if he loved her at all because she loved him with all her heart even though she knew that he did not love her and yet she would do anything for him.
My friend Rachel and i were talking in Gymnastics class and we got on the subject of Helena Bonham Carter. Rachel asked if i heard of a movie called Sweeney Todd The Demon Barber of Fleet Street. I told her no. So i go home and tell my mom and dad on Friday after girl scouts my dad says look at what i found and i look and scream SWEENEY TODD YOU FOUND IT! he told me he rented it for the weekend so i got home and watched it. My first thought was Rachel never said it was Rated R! i continue and then i see anthony and think is that Helena but i soon saw mrs.lovett and knew it was Helena who was mrs.lovett. A few weeks later my sister mom and i watch it since we bought it my mom couldn't watch him kill people and sister kept saying that had hurt when they went down the shoot. now i can't stop watching it! Helena and Johnny made it amzing.
