Embarassing Sweeney MomentsEver found yourself in a funny moment with your love of Sweeney?
Like,you find yourself singing aloud for no reason at the wrong time and then are humilliated afterwards?

I was in borders once and I was listening to the original cast recording of Sweeney. IN one sudden invounatary action, my voice erupted into song. Gladly is was Epiphany. When I put the CD down, I found that I was being followed a squad of security guards. Odd day, I'll tell you.

Last year at Thanksgiving, I made pumpkin pie, and one of my friends asked me (literally) "Mmm, that smells good, what is it?" and I started singing "It's priest, have a little priest..". She looked at me like I had lost it, and even though I was kidding, she refused to eat the pie.

I had finished my vocal warm-up for a show I was in and had gone back to the dressing room to do my make-up. In this dressing room, there is a long row of mirrors and benches, and from where I was sitting, I couldn't see the door or anything on the other side of the bench. I thought I was in there by myself. I started singing 'Epiphany' to myself. Suddenly, I hear this, "What the hell are you singing?" from the other side of the bench. Slightly awkward explanation ensued.

I shouted "City On Fire" in a mall once and security glared at me.

I mean.... ahem....I was sitting in calculus two years ago and hadn't slept much the night before. So the teacher writes something on the board and asks, "What is this?" and before I could stop myself, I sort of yelled "Smells like piss!" and then began giggling maniacally and the entire class gave me wide berth for about a week after that.

A friend of mine went to see the Broadway revival on my recommendation and she loved it. Made a vague reference to changing her voice mail message.
A few days later, she called me while I was in a mall. I didn't grab my cell phone in time to answer. Had to call her back...got her voice mail.
Mrs. Lovett's Meat Pies! How may I help you?
I laughed so hard I dropped my coffee.[/i]

it's a only a little embarassing but
your desktop picture on your school laptop is a cologe(sp??) of different sweeney pictures. so you always get weird looks from you teachers

Iwas in music theory class one day and started humming/singing Worst Pies In London to myself. The girl I was sitting next to leans over and says,
"Why are you singing about pies!?"
needless to say, I laughed my head off!
Then my choir director/theory teacher started singing it with me!

One day in Math Class, my teacher asked me why I had red marks on my neck and I felt them and I freaked out because they were like scars. I jumped up and screamed, "It's Him! The Devil! Sweeney...."
Everyone looked at me weirdly and some people laughed...i was sent to the health room.

I had just walked out of the theatre with my friend after seeing the film, and all of a sudden I her these random girls trying to sing the lyrics, so I run up to them and start a random conversation out of no where...in the freezing cold too.

This year my high school got asked by MTI to do Sweeney Todd: the concery version. they had all the leads then the Acapella choir did all the chorus stuff. Well the last night (the night new york came) we were finishing the last Ballad and there is ALOT of time between "fleet" and "street" well the conductor forgot to give it to the choir and there was only a handfull that counted it out. so we had the demon barbor of fleet.
when we hear our cd we just laugh at the end.(we did do it right in the recording studio)

I was at a ren faire that had a booth selling movie!meat pies. I was humming "A little Priest" when I got up there, and then the kid serving me said "No Sweeney references please." in a full bore British accent...

Right now in Social Studies we're studying crime and punishment. A few days ago, my teacher mentioned how Britain would deport criminals to Australia.
I say, "SWEENEY!" and everyone around me looks at me.

Me and my Sweeney obsessed friend were passing "The Art of Shaving-New York" in the mall. In the display window there was a barber chair almost exactly like Sweeney's!!! We started screaming and ran up to the window while our other friend took pictures of us posing by the chair. The man running the shop was staring at us the whole time!

One time,I walked out of my house singing loudly(and horribly)," They all deserve to die!" and sared a woman walking her dog.
She still avoids me.

I went to a Catholic school. One day I was not paying much attention and I heard someone say "priest" and instantly started singing Sweeney's and Lovett's parts of "A Little Priest" and pretendig to be the different characters. I have been known as the crazy hag ever since... and my teacher was not too pleased...

I don't know if it's really a Sweeney moment per say, but toady as I was watching LAw and Order, I did a guide check for the plot blurb where they also list guest stars (comes with Rogers on Demand) and I went crazy when I saw Angela Lansbury was guest starring. I was actually yelling out loud "Oh My God! It's Angela Lansbury! I love Angela Lansbury!" etc. with my sister and brother in the room...bu they're used to me talking to and at the TV, so they didn't really say anything.
