Not only is this the best version of this song, sung by the incomparable Patricia Routledge, but I could listen to it on repeat for an hour solid.

I bought the Beggars Opera on DVD after seeing this - Patricia's great in it, and does a good deal of singing.

when watching Patricia in KUA, even supposedly not being able to sing in the program, it becomes apparent what a fine voice she has as soon as she opens her mouth to sing.

She recorded major roles in two BBC broadcasts of Gilbert & Sullivan operettas (Iolanthe and Ruddigore), and of course played Ruth in The Pirates of Penzance in Central Park... Joseph Papp's "music hall" adaptation, with Kevin Kline, Rex Smith and Linda Ronstadt (but Routledge stole the show). And she starred in two (ill-fated) Broadway shows: Darling of the Day (Jule Styne) and 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue (Leonard Bernstein). My first encounter with her comic and vocal brilliance was on LP: the recording of the revue Cowardy Custard, in which she sang "straight" ballads like I'll Follow My Secret Heart and delivered comedy numbers like I Went to a Marvelous Party to riotous effect. And hunt down her two appearances in the original videos of Alan Bennett's Talking Heads: genius!

If this had been a motion picture Patricia Routledge would doubtless have won an Academy Award. THAT'S how phenomenal her performance is.

@MaltingFarm99 Yes, you can buy a DVD with this production of the Beggar's Opera. Arthaus Musik, cat. no. 102 001, directed by Jonathan Miller, conducted by Sir John Eliot Gardiner.

This scene is so very similar to the Mrs Lovett/Tobias Not While I’m Around from Sondheim’s Sweeney Todd ... makes you ponder how marvellous Routledge would have been in the role. She was, legend has it, initially considered for the role in the first production in 1979 but it eventually went of course to the equally wonderful Angela Lansbury.

How clear and tuneful is her voice. Not enough though. There should be much more of her singing for us to access. One of a kind is our Miss Routledge, a true professional.
