Johnny Depp, who had no formal singing training before taking the starring role in the musical Sweeney Todd, says there are only two men he'd sing for.

"I don't think I would have attempted this with anyone else" but director and pal Tim Burton, he told The Envelope.

"What if Barry Manilow asked you?" Burton then asked his leading man.

"That's a different thing," Depp quipped, "cause that might mean duet, and if that's the case, I'm in."
