I may be wrong (someone might find the quote online) but I remember Sondheim doing a Q&A and someone asked about Broadway Baby and Bernadette Peters. He said she was great of course, but the definitive version so far was Julia McKenzie. Who am I to argue. I agree. Brilliant here, Julia!

I was an extremely poor young student from Denmark, living in London back then. I remember skipping meals to be able to buy theatre tickets, and somehow I managed to see SBSBS eight times during those months. I cannot think of a show that brings back more memories than this.

I was at the opening night of Side by Side by Sondheim in London in 1976 and fell in love with Julia McKenzie right then and there. She is FANTASTIC! Who would have thought then that in 2009 she would be the new Miss Marple in the TV-series?

Other than dragging out instead of speeding up a little : ‘hey mister producer!’ this is the best vocal rendition so far. Just close your eyes and listen to the angst, defiant ,gut-wrenching phrasing right-on at the right spots. You can even her muted trumpet-like crooning with a bathos that simply wring your heart. Ending with a bang in defiance of adversity is most exhilarating.

Goodness me! Her belt blows me away! 😲 I'm obsessed with the 1982 London revival sound recording of Guys And Dolls that she's in playing Miss Adelaide! 😍 That's how I got to hear her super singing voice first but seeing as though that sound recording was just a sound recording then I didn't reconcile the fact to a face of the woman from Fresh Fields and Miss Marple 😊

she has a nice voice, but not much acting going on there, that's too bad - this song gets pretty bland if you don't add to it the spark / twist like Stritch does, IMO.
