March 29, 2024 I still get chills from this stunning performance, so heartfelt, heart-wrenching, and deeply moving. What a singing and acting job. That last "Nail me to your CROSS and break me" never fails to shatter me. To those who are celebrating this weekend, Happy Easter!
My friend, I consider myself somewhat of a Gethsemane snob…I’ve heard them all. I always preferred Neeley’s version…but then…I heard you. My god man! You absolutely OWN this song! One of the most difficult songs in stage history, and keep in mind, EVERYONE compares the vocalist to a dozen other versions and you blow past them. The body of your voice, the nuances, your range…and not just because you have a remarkable way of delivering the song, others can hit high notes as well, almost for the sake of hitting the notes…you blew it away because you let us see that you NEED to sing it the way you do so that it touches our hearts and souls. Your vocal range staggers the mind. You are simply incredible…take that from a JCS snob…unbelievable brother!
@@kerrypapworth1526 I haven't but I will look it up...Thanks for the suggestion...I am remiss in my duties as a Gethsemane snob for not knowing this...Incidentally...here is an odd question: What is the worst version you have heard...I mean it is totally subjective. For instance, I would have never cast John Legend in the role of Jesus Christ in the live version. I suspect that was done to appeal to a younger audience.
Oh, Dan. In one song you depict the complexity of what happened at Gethsemane. A man, faithful and aware, but also God. The sometimes dreadful consequences of obedience. Confusion and conviction. Not a manger scene with a plump baby. Crucifixion, physical and mental. All the dashboard crucifixes and glow in the dark crosses have made mockery of it, but it was a bleak and bloody business. Your rendition: breath-taking.
I am 75 years old and saw the original show and have the original album. I believe this I the best version I have ever heard! God bless you. I am so glad to found you. Thank you❤❤
Dan doesn't just perform the song. He transforms into Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane. He exudes the pain and emotion, the isolation Jesus must have been feeling in that moment. Such an incredibly powerful and emotional performance!
Good God man!!!!! You could sing the freakin phone book and make it sound incredible. You Sir, have a huge new fan here. This 68 year old is totally in awe!!!!
I've lost count of how many times I've listened to this and each time it blows me away and can still reduce me to tears! This man's talent knows no bounds - he's simply phenomenal across all genres!
I’m 63 years old, a Christian for over 50 of those years and I saw Jesus in your performance. I sat here and cried for my Lord, who is coming back soon! Thank you, Dan 🙌🏻☝🏻💫
OMG - I'm 64yr old and grown-up with JCS Ted Neeley, saw him 2 yrs ago in Belgium - very very impressed Dan reaches a nearly equal pitch - my deepest respect, dear Dan.
I’m about to cry…don’t know why…exactly…i love Jesus, and I love this song…This isn’t representative of Jesus so much as it captures the agony, tragedy of all he went through even before the ordeal (such a tame word) of the crucifixion. The effect of your singing, Dan, is, in a way mystical. mesmerizing. powerful in a way that reaches and grabs the very soul of those who hear you. I want very much to see and hear you do the entire Superstar musical. That would be an event that would shake the musical stage to its foundations! I’m casting a virtual dozen red roses onto the stage where you stand. Excellent!
I have NEVER seen anything in my 70+ years of loving all things Broadway, as well as all things Christ-centric, that even comes close to this --- performance? That word doesn't describe what I just witnessed. I can't find the words. And I'm a poet.
I just held my breath for 5:43 seconds. Has Andrew Lloyd Webber heard this??? I feel like this was meant to be performed by a metal/opera singer, no one ever has done this song justice like that !!! And I’ve heard them all, I eat, breathe, sleep JCS, and this song is sooooo deep. And Dan brought it all out. What a performance ❤❤❤❤ whole body goosebumps. Thank you for enriching my life with this !
It is the most incomparable and gut wrenching most amazing and powerful I have ever experienced anyone performing and I'm certain it will not be surpassed.
Best Gethsemane I’ve ever heard - and I’ve heard A LOT of them. But this one? This one more than touched my soul… it reached in, grabbed it & shook it! 💟✝️💟
A far cry from the cute 20 year old who looked at his feet while sharing his beautiful voice. Now a confident, madly talented, powerful presence. Bravo!
so glad to see an increased interest in this most passionate rendition of "gethsemane" this past month. think it is due to several reactors have had it on their channels recently. while you are here like and subscribe. this performance deserves to be in dan's top five. have a happy and blessed easter everyone.
I have never experienced HEARING AND SEEING a singer such as DAN VASC. ITS SHOCKING TO THE EMOTIONS OF BEING REAL. I EXPERIENCED DISCOVERING AND HEARING HIM FIRST ON U TUBE, " A metal singer singing AMAZING GRACE. I STARTED NOT TO LISTEN TO A METAL SINGER BUT DID.!!!!! I THOUGHT I WAS SURELY LEAVING THIS WORLD , LEAVING FOR HEAVEN . I WAS OVERTAKEN!!! MY SOUL WAS FULL OF HEAVENS GLORY, ANOINTING. I STILL.LISTEN TO IT ,OVER OVER ,OVER AND OVER , STILL ....THE SAME EMOTIONS TAKE OVER MY HEART AND SOUL. 😢 EVERYONE SAYS THE SAME!!! HE IS CHANGING THE WORLD!!! HE IS ABSOLUTELY UNBELEVABLE AND DROP DEAD GORGEOUS. HES BEYOND DESCRIBING. OTHER SINGERS ALMOST HAVE TO JUST GET OUT OF THE WAY.?????????😮
Dan doesn't just perform his songs, He sings , expesses his passion through expression . It's like each song is a mini play, motions , emotions , with depth of his feelings , heart and soul. Just listening to his music is magical in every way. Watching him is magnificently And wonderfully Mesmerizing. I would love to see him on tour here , in the U. S. A. God bless you and your very special gift.
I’m in my mid sixties and have been in and worked in musical theatre for over 40 years. You have the most amazing voice ever. No one has ever owned this song like you have. You have brought me to tears with your rendition of this truly difficult piece. No one compares to you. You are amazing. I can’t give your talent enough praise.
Reviewer Sebs Duran sent me here, having been wrung out thoroughly by this magnificent performance. I was well aware of Dan, but not that he'd sung Gethsemane. What a match of singer and song, as I commented on Sebs' review. I see I haven't subscribed to Dan's channel. Thought I had. Will remedy that now.
This heart breaking acting and singing performance is worthy of the highest honors ever given. So much beauty and pain. Dan's beautiful rich baritone almost operatic voice is without match. It ends almost suddenly and leaves me wanting more.
I'm listening to this Aug 2024..our world is in trouble..I'm weeping for the pain OUR LORD endured..and here we are on the brink of perhaps the end..your voice and rendition brought back every ounce of HIS suffering..all I can say is thank you
It's very true what you say. I think Dan Vasc is inspired. It's time for this song and this interpretation, the most beautiful in the world. I think God is suffering! A church in a town near me burned down. Oh, I doubt why!
I saw Jesus Christ Superstar and was totally transfixed by Ted Neely singing this song. I never thought anyone could beat that performance. I sat, breathless and had chills, during this performance. It is stunning. You did it......wow! Just truly the most powerful perfornance I've EVER seen!
That is excactelly what happened to me - Ian Gillian and Ted Neely were vocally the "kings" of this masterpiece song until Dan Vanc appeared and blew litterely my mind away both vocally and emotionally.
Ted neely is amazing too. The times are different. When I listen to Neely wow!!! A voice that seems to contain God and Devil at the same time but Dan has such a surprising voice! He is moving in this song. Its vocal range is astounding. I adore. I got such a kick out of listening to it the first time and I keep coming back to it.
I dont think I'll see a better performance of Gethsemane. The vocal performance is exceptional, Ive come to expect that from Mr Vasc,..but this is an absolutely poignant Christ,.. a Son, speaking to his Father,.. rebelling, and angry, scared, and yet still trying to please his parent. The juxtaposition of duty and fear, doubt, and even a little self pity,.. were just a perfect blend. The acting expression was, again, precise, amazingly timed, and all done whilst delivering a belter of a vocal. This gentleman just keeps raising the bar...
That's because you haven't seen the way Camilo Sesto sang it in Spanish. Andrew Lloyd Webber himself said that it was undoubtedly one of the best ever made.
Just listened to your version of Gethsemane and I've seen Ted Neeley several times in person your version is the best. Would like to see more covers fron Superstar.
I am so baffled right now! There has NEVER been an artist that moves me so deeply. PERIOD!!! I don't know what it is, or why, but you Dan, literally stir my soul. I am just speechless...
I just sent this video to 50 my friends and family in Poland.Hope someone will share it and subscribe.Happy Easter to everyone who celebrate this holiday.”And when you stand praying,if you hold anything against anyone,forgive them,so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins.”All the best to everyone.❤🐣🐥🐇🪻🌼🌷🌹💐🌞🌎🥂😊🎉🎉🎉
DANIEL VASCONCELOS SUPERSTAR (just not yet) ;) This was really emotional and passionate performance, thank you for the dedication and hard work you put to create those videos as often as you do. I feel like I'm repeating myself here, but keep going! :)
Also, BTW 2:22 is just powerful. Also the next notes are so empathic. I can feel pain. This cover is extremely superior to every other version except for Ian Gillan's
Oh my, Dan's voice is amazing, just found Dan a few days ago on UA-cam singing Amazing Grace. I haven't heard anyone sing that song with so much feelings. How have I not seen him before. UA-cam is all I watch. So easy on the eyes as well. Oh be still my ♥
I’m not much on musicals nor have I ever heard of this one before but Dan is amazing. He’s got more character development than half of the characters Hollywood is barfing out
ONE MILLION BRAVOS!!! No one can compare to you Dan Vasc... and this touched me even more than your rendition of Amazing Grace which is also the BEST I've ever heard. Just WOW WOW WOW. The power, tone and emotion of your voice reaches the depth of my soul. Thank you for sharing your gift with us.
Tell your friends and I am sure you have subscribed. I believe Dan is doing it his way. He seems to be a one person show. I wish there were ways to help.him. I purchased all of his music on bandcamp where he gets the biggest cut.
I have only recently found Dan's channel and was searching for more videos . Nearly passed on this one because I didn't know the song. That would have been a HUGE mistake. I was totally blown away by the vocals and performance. This man has it all. Bravo 👏 👏 👏 👏
I too am listening to this in August 2024 - am 80 and love your singing especially this song and the emotion you bring to the story. We tend to forget the agony Jesus felt in the Garden as He prayed to His Father. He knew years before He would die that we might live but now here is the reality of that sacrifice. Dan you have done a wonderful work here at helping us to understand Christ's agony. Bless you and thank you. ❤❤❤❤ Just wish the song included Jesus forgiving all who were responsible for his crucifixion - not just the soldiers but those screaming CRUCIFY HIM! Saying to His Father - Forgive them, they know not what they do....
I saw Jesus Christ Superstar 3 times, when it first opened. I was lucky to stand so close to Ian Gillan, who portrayed Jesus, during sound checks, I could could have shook hands. For most singers, covering "Gethsemane", when they get to those high notes, they usually scream. And that's OK, it's a very difficult and challenging piece. But you are the only singer I have ever heard, since the great Ian Gillan, who hit those notes perfectly. What an amazing talent!
Exactly my point! Maybe being on The Voice so he can be heard, even though he surpasses EVERYONE with his voice. How can we get him more visible to the world?
INCREDIBLE PERFORMANCE....very moving in his rendition.....the pain,agony submission, reflection of the Messiah's final sacrifice! JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR -
I never imagined that anyone could top Ted Neely’s performance. You have exceeded him by leaps and bounds. Your talent for singing and interpretation is breathtaking. You are richly blessed.
This has got to be the most emotional piece on stage or film ever written. Andrew Lloyd Webber was a master at that. You managed to take my breath away with this, couldn't call it acting - more like you were actually feeling every word you were singing. Just blown my mind. You deserve to be world renowned for your talent and the feelings you envoke in people. Thank you so much x
As someone who grew up with and was deeply moved by the original Jesus Christ Superstar, who knew every song, sang along with and cried along with most of them, and played many on the piano, I am blown away by Dan's performance. I didn't think anyone could sing this song better than Ted Neely, but Dan took it to a new level. Vocally and emotionally, Dan outdid him in every way.
why hasn't this gone viral? 😮 I haven't listened to all of your music yet but I soon will... I'm a 72 year old great grandma but, wow! I would love to hear your rendition of the Doors' " People Are Strange". With your power and sultriness it would be amazing. I hope your days are as epic as you make many of ours!
where's the love button? lol Wow, Dan, you brought me to tears on this one. Such an absolutely powerful performance unlike any others. I am so glad I came across you, finally.
I pray for his soul salvation through JESUS CHRIST who gave him this Amazing gift and to Glorify GOD with this gift. Don't know if he is saved ...but praying for him.❤
@@olivebelgians809 Dan is very definitely saved, and he's definitely not afraid to talk about it. Having seen and heard how he sings this song, that really shouldn't be in question. You might want to check out his cover of Roy Khan's "For All." Just check through his catalog here on UA-cam.
Wow, I love your rendition, Dan, of the Passion of Christ. You sang with so much soul, grit, angst and flood of emotions. You wrapped yourself in the message of the song. So moving and poignant. You showed the stretch of your vocal range. What a gift, Dan! May you sing more songs like this....
This is insanely good,...no, , Amazing! Such passion, powerful emotion, sang so heart felt.🥺 I cry with emotion, when I listen to this version. Dan, you ARE THE MAN! Thankyou for blessing us! ✭✫✰✯✴
Must add to the previous response. I was so moved by your acting and the interpretation. I have watched it over and over and have been moved to tears. One of your best covers - alongside the US anthem. Must see more of you. But have to listen to this one again and then back to Elvis Trilogy that I also stood up to clap and made a post to you on that as well. I lived every emotion and tear drop. You posted it on my late fathers birthday which, in England was also fathers day. He would have been moved too. He was 88 when he died and you sang this on what would have been his 94th birthday.
Dan... Not only do you have the most amazing voice, but you transcend just "performance". You become the song. You are the music. That is a very rare gift, and I thank God you are sharing that gift with all of us. This was heart-wrenching.
Wrenching in a good way to know that a performance such as this can evoke such great emotions and bring us all closer to something bigger than ourselves
I feel so honoured to have found you Dear Dan days before 2023 Christmas. And can't stop listening to your wonderful music. Thank you, I wish you so much Joy,Peace, Love in 2024 ❤ Always!!!
I am moved to the core. The emotions come through swifter then electricity in air. Am catching my breathe now. Have seen Jesus Christ Superstar on stage. I was moved then. I'm moved more now... thank you. 😊
Well Dan...it's Thursday and tomorrow is Good Friday. Hearing you sing this (my first for this song) had me in tears!! God has a plan for me I know, and He planned this moment too!
I painted three paintings of Ted Neely singing this song. And without a doubt, I will be painting three of you too! I didn't know anyone could ever sing this song the way he did. You surprassed any of my expectations!! Fantastic to say the very least! PS: This is my very favorite song!!
MAGNIFICENT presentation ...beyond words ! Dan Vasc sends this to the heart and soul ! I saw this original play in San Francisco years ago in the 70s ...since then no one has come close to the original with Ted Neely . Now, Dan Vasc has achieved beyond the original in voice with an awesome range and exceptionally realistic dramatic execution using the "original" instrumental background.
Oh my. I'm speechless. I felt that song right down into my toes. Nobody, not one single musician, has rendered me speechless. Good isn't big enough. Amazing, still not big enough.
i feel like JCS never gets the recognition it deserves so when i saw this i had to watch and holy shit, the power, the emotion, ive seen this show live twice and watched countless versions and this is BY FAR the best
There's some Swedish videos where the metal vibe comes thru and they are my favorite interpretations. Dan could bring that metal attitude in other JCSS songs. Judas' especially. Yes, please more.
I don’t know if you’ll ever see this comment but you made me feel every word. Thank you for sharing your beautiful gift with me. May our lord bless you.
I have seen Ted Neeley 3 time in super star... and have listened to most all artist doing this song on the internet.. You have The best rendition of this song I have ever heard... Bravo... I would love to see you live in concert anytime... Thank you..
WOW! Was für eine Kraft, was für ein Ausdruck in der Stimme und der Mimik! Und was für eine Botschaft in diesem Song! Ich habe die Szene förmlich in meinem Herzen mitempfunden. Obwohl tausend mal in Filmen gehört, oder auch gelesen. Ich bin kein Christ, aber glaube an eine Schöpfung und, dass es Jesus tatsächlich gab. Wer auch immer er war...! Seine Zweifel, seine Fragen und letztendlich seine Furcht, alles das hat dieser außergewöhnliche Künstler mit seiner Performance wahrhaftig, verständlich und menschlich "transportiert"! Ich bin zutiefst beeindruckt und dankbar! Love you!! ❤❤❤
Oh my gosh, Wow, I'm writing from Australia and only recently heard you sing Daniel, I'm absolutely thrilled to listen to you sing. Your range and the passion in which you sing is so beautiful. You feel the passion of every word. I'm so Blessed to have been able to follow such an amazing artist who touches my heart .God Bless you and your family. Amore xx
March 29, 2024 I still get chills from this stunning performance, so heartfelt, heart-wrenching, and deeply moving. What a singing and acting job. That last "Nail me to your CROSS and break me" never fails to shatter me. To those who are celebrating this weekend, Happy Easter!
Happy Easter to you. Yes! Isn't this great?
And on my birthday! How could it get any better! Lol! 😆
My friend, I consider myself somewhat of a Gethsemane snob…I’ve heard them all. I always preferred Neeley’s version…but then…I heard you. My god man! You absolutely OWN this song!

Your vocal range staggers the mind. You are simply incredible…take that from a JCS snob…unbelievable brother!
Gregg yes agree 100% Dan is a remarkable talent, just astounding. I’m curious have
you heard John Farnham sing this?
Oh man. I’m a JCS snob too- this was as good or better than Neely and that’s saying a lot isn’t it?!!
I've always preferred Jeff Fenholt's performance from the original Broadway soundtrack. But this is absolutely spell binding! 💖

@@skwoods7986 I'm with you on that...and that is a stout statement!
I saw the movie about 36 times. Im in awe over Dan's version. Im in tears.
I don't understand why this hasn't had more hits and likes. This is the best version of this song I have ever heard! 😮
Me either! It's incredible. I think Neely would even give a standing ovation.
It deserves millions of views!
Because he is independent not with any label
SHARE!
I think the reason is people are still afraid of Jesus and also of their own death
Oh, Dan.

I never saw the show but I remember the album from the 1970s and from tv. Dan is the first great Jesus in JCS.
Ya, you got me by a few years but I had the album too. Actually my dad bought it. JCS was awesome.
Dan doesn't just perform the song. He transforms into Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane. He exudes the pain and emotion, the isolation Jesus must have been feeling in that moment. Such an incredibly powerful and emotional performance!
Not only a superb singer but an actor worthy of an Oscar. What a performance!
All in your opinion.
Agree! Blown away and completely breathless
Completely agree!
The most amazing flawless performance I've ever seen!
You need to see other cover songs of his. This guy id actually amazing. He is a heavy metal singer that can do any genre!
Good God man!!!!! You could sing the freakin phone book and make it sound incredible. You Sir, have a huge new fan here. This 68 year old is totally in awe!!!!

Same here, want him in Ireland in concert. Dan is world class where the heck has he been??
Viking Reacts says (every time he does a Dan reaction), "Dan IS the song." 😀
I am 75 years . I would buy many tickets to see you in Jesus Christ supper star, please come to Hawaii.
That does it, petition to revive JCS and have Dan Vasc in the lead role. Beautifully done ❤

That's because you haven't seen the way Camilo Sesto sang it in Spanish. Andrew Lloyd Webber himself said that it was undoubtedly one of the best ever made.

DANIEL VASCONCELOS SUPERSTAR (just not yet) ;)
This was really emotional and passionate performance, thank you for the dedication and hard work you put to create those videos as often as you do. I feel like I'm repeating myself here, but keep going! :)
Do it in Ian Gillan style pls
Also, BTW 2:22 is just powerful. Also the next notes are so empathic. I can feel pain. This cover is extremely superior to every other version except for Ian Gillan's
Dan, thank you for your performance. It's really professional, artistically and emotionally! And, it's going from the heart.
(pardon for my English:)
In order to realize the pation you perform at that point we must here the rest.... Great performace and great voice... Congratulations :D
This is like watching a theatrical performance on stage!! Absolutely a one-of-a-kind amazing performance!! Phenomenal!!
I agree with you ,it is like
watching a theatrical performance
Oh my, Dan's voice is amazing, just found Dan a few days ago on UA-cam singing Amazing Grace. I haven't heard anyone sing that song with so much feelings. How have I not seen him before. UA-cam is all I watch. So easy on the eyes as well. Oh be still my ♥
I’m not much on musicals nor have I ever heard of this one before but Dan is amazing. He’s got more character development than half of the characters Hollywood is barfing out
Yes Debby Dan singing Amazing Grace is just remarkable.
I did not think it was even possible to match Gillan and Neeley….
Dan, You took this to the next level !!!
Yes, exactly, that's how I see it too, just fantastic.
ONE MILLION BRAVOS!!! No one can compare to you Dan Vasc... and this touched me even more than your rendition of Amazing Grace which is also the BEST I've ever heard. Just WOW WOW WOW. The power, tone and emotion of your voice reaches the depth of my soul. Thank you for sharing your gift with us.
Love how you were able in song to grasp the wrestling of Jesus with his humanity, till he surrendered.
Why don't we here a lot more of this amazingly talented performer? I came across him by accident.
Tell your friends and I am sure you have subscribed.
I believe Dan is doing it his way. He seems to be a one person show. I wish there were ways to help.him. I purchased all of his music on bandcamp where he gets the biggest cut.

❤❤❤❤❤❤ Thanks!
I have to shut up and do something! You’re amazing
One of the best Gethsemane I've ever heard! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I will never hear this song again the same way, never. Dan your incredibly talented. Your star is bright.
I have only recently found Dan's channel and was searching for more videos . Nearly passed on this one because I didn't know the song. That would have been a HUGE mistake. I was totally blown away by the vocals and performance. This man has it all. Bravo 👏 👏 👏 👏
I too am listening to this in August 2024 - am 80 and love your singing especially this song and the emotion you bring to the story. We tend to forget the agony Jesus felt in the Garden as He prayed to His Father. He knew years before He would die that we might live but now here is the reality of that sacrifice. Dan you have done a wonderful work here at helping us to understand Christ's agony. Bless you and thank you. ❤❤❤❤ Just wish the song included Jesus forgiving all who were responsible for his crucifixion - not just the soldiers but those screaming CRUCIFY HIM! Saying to His Father - Forgive them, they know not what they do....
What an amazing performance ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I watch this every day, he has done this with so much emotion and beauty and Dan's voice is super awesome ❤
I saw Jesus Christ Superstar 3 times, when it first opened. I was lucky to stand so close to Ian Gillan, who portrayed Jesus, during sound checks, I could could have shook hands. For most singers, covering "Gethsemane", when they get to those high notes, they usually scream. And that's OK, it's a very difficult and challenging piece. But you are the only singer I have ever heard, since the great Ian Gillan, who hit those notes perfectly. What an amazing talent!
Why, oh why, is Dan Vasc not headlining on Broadway, or being celebrated in opera, or just plain world famous for his amazing voice and mega-talent?
Agree
Exactly my point! Maybe being on The Voice so he can be heard, even though he surpasses EVERYONE with his voice. How can we get him more visible to the world?
I read he chooses to stay independent. I respect his integrity to control his future, content and audience. @alsoarty1
He kinda is world famous. I tell others about how amazing he is and they will be familiar with him....
Exactly my point. I’ve forwarded this to a few famous singers, like Donny Osmond (friend of mine) and a few others. He needs to be noticed!
INCREDIBLE PERFORMANCE....very moving in his rendition.....the pain,agony submission, reflection of the Messiah's final sacrifice! JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR -
😢❤
There's singing and then there's tearing out your heart for a complete performance. You gifted us the latter. Thank you!
Dan Vasc your absolutely amazing you touch my heart.
Yes, the scripture tells us that Jesus was in anguish before he allowed himself to be taken to the cross. Thank you for this beautiful song. ❤
A thousand golden buzzers are not enough. This is art.
He performs this piece. Dan takes you right into Gethsemane with him. Powerful performance. I love this
That‘s not only perfect singing, thats also amazing performing. He feels it
I never imagined that anyone could top
Ted Neely’s performance.
You have exceeded him by leaps and bounds.
Your talent for singing and interpretation is breathtaking.
You are richly blessed.
Don't forget that before Ted, there was Ian Gillan! That's the hard one to beat!
I have no words...none that can do Dan justice...he is amazing!!! Absolutely amazing!!!.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This has got to be the most emotional piece on stage or film ever written. Andrew Lloyd Webber was a master at that. You managed to take my breath away with this, couldn't call it acting - more like you were actually feeling every word you were singing. Just blown my mind. You deserve to be world renowned for your talent and the feelings you envoke in people. Thank you so much x
As someone who grew up with and was deeply moved by the original Jesus Christ Superstar, who knew every song, sang along with and cried along with most of them, and played many on the piano, I am blown away by Dan's performance. I didn't think anyone could sing this song better than Ted Neely, but Dan took it to a new level. Vocally and emotionally, Dan outdid him in every way.
NEVER HEARD Gethsemane sung with such raw emotion
I am stunned speechless and in awe of Dans top class rendition
If anyone would be the choice to replace the great Ted Neeley as Jesus Christ it would be you, Dan. Amazing job!
why hasn't this gone viral? 😮
I haven't listened to all of your music yet but I soon will...
I'm a 72 year old great grandma but, wow!
I would love to hear your rendition of the Doors' " People Are Strange". With your power and sultriness it would be amazing.
I hope your days are as epic as you make many of ours!
where's the love button? lol Wow, Dan, you brought me to tears on this one. Such an absolutely powerful performance unlike any others. I am so glad I came across you, finally.
Thanks!💗
You're not only a singer, you're a great performer Dan! High intensity, amazing interpetation, powerful voice, crazy high notes
I pray for his soul salvation through JESUS CHRIST who gave him this Amazing gift and to Glorify GOD with this gift. Don't know if he is saved ...but praying for him.❤
@@olivebelgians809he’s Christian 👍
@@romypie3725 Sweeeet!!! We'll be meeting in heaven, then, one day! 💖✝🙏
@@olivebelgians809 Dan is very definitely saved, and he's definitely not afraid to talk about it. Having seen and heard how he sings this song, that really shouldn't be in question. You might want to check out his cover of Roy Khan's "For All." Just check through his catalog here on UA-cam.
Wow, I love your rendition, Dan, of the Passion of Christ. You sang with so much soul, grit, angst and flood of emotions. You wrapped yourself in the message of the song. So moving and poignant. You showed the stretch of your vocal range. What a gift, Dan! May you sing more songs like this....
This is the best cover of Gethsemane in UA-cam.......
this and the one by Italian cult band Death ss ..
watch the leo jimenez audicion its phenomenal too!
Truly!!!
As it was already said, watch the Leo Jimenez' one!
Its good but check out the guy who played him in west end of london. ua-cam.com/video/3-rre_BXxC0/v-deo.html&ab_channel=SteveBalsamo
Safe to say all us fans of Dan are speechless again! If he leaves me anymore speechless I’ll end up mute! ❤👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Bravo! Bravo! I love this young man?
😅
This is insanely good,...no, , Amazing!
Such passion, powerful emotion, sang so heart felt.🥺
I cry with emotion, when I listen to this version.
Dan, you ARE THE MAN!
Thankyou for blessing us! ✭✫✰✯✴
Must add to the previous response. I was so moved by your acting and the interpretation. I have watched it over and over and have been moved to tears. One of your best covers - alongside the US anthem. Must see more of you. But have to listen to this one again and then back to Elvis Trilogy that I also stood up to clap and made a post to you on that as well. I lived every emotion and tear drop. You posted it on my late fathers birthday which, in England was also fathers day. He would have been moved too. He was 88 when he died and you sang this on what would have been his 94th birthday.
Dan... Not only do you have the most amazing voice, but you transcend just "performance". You become the song. You are the music. That is a very rare gift, and I thank God you are sharing that gift with all of us. This was heart-wrenching.
Wrenching in a good way to know that a performance such as this can evoke such great emotions and bring us all closer to something bigger than ourselves
Worthy of Ted Neely. Thank you Dan, and a blessed Easter to all who celebrate.
You should me on Broadway. You were bringing the house down. I don’t know why no one has approached you. You are fabulous.
Broadway needs to bring back this play because of this man WOW 😮❤
I feel so honoured to have found you Dear Dan days before 2023 Christmas. And can't stop listening to your wonderful music. Thank you, I wish you so much Joy,Peace, Love in 2024 ❤ Always!!!
I am moved to the core. The emotions come through swifter then electricity in air. Am catching my breathe now. Have seen Jesus Christ Superstar on stage. I was moved then. I'm moved more now... thank you. 😊
This is NOT an easy song to sing by any stretch. He does it justice.
Well Dan...it's Thursday and tomorrow is Good Friday. Hearing you sing this (my first for this song) had me in tears!! God has a plan for me I know, and He planned this moment too!
I have always loved Ted Neelys version, but you have gone above and beyond!! BRAVO... please do more of Jesus Christ Superstar...❤️
Profoundly incredible!! How does this not have more views? Your performance is just exquisite.
Wow, you’re a fantastic singer/performer. Unbelievable. You were born to sing my friend.
I painted three paintings of Ted Neely singing this song. And without a doubt, I will be painting three of you too! I didn't know anyone could ever sing this song the way he did. You surprassed any of my expectations!! Fantastic to say the very least! PS: This is my very favorite song!!
The best cover of Gethsamane ever! So full of emotion! You’ll make a great Antonio Banderas yourself!❤
I'm addicted to the feeling I get when listening to your incredible voice and emotion invoking music. Thank you.
MAGNIFICENT presentation ...beyond words ! Dan Vasc sends this to the heart and soul ! I saw this original play in San Francisco years ago in the 70s ...since then no one has come close to the original with Ted Neely . Now, Dan Vasc has achieved beyond the original in voice with an awesome range and exceptionally realistic dramatic execution using the "original" instrumental background.
Oh my. I'm speechless. I felt that song right down into my toes. Nobody, not one single musician, has rendered me speechless. Good isn't big enough. Amazing, still not big enough.
i feel like JCS never gets the recognition it deserves so when i saw this i had to watch and holy shit, the power, the emotion, ive seen this show live twice and watched countless versions and this is BY FAR the best
Neil deGrasse Tyson said it was his favorite rock opera. Im sure he would love Dan!
Every cover of Dan is a masterpiece. But since he is done Gethesame i can‘t stop listenung
Please do more Jesus Christ Superstar songs. Your voice is made to sing any of the songs. Thank you for sharing your amazing talent with us.
I agree please do more songs from Jesus Christ Superstar!
Totally agree!
There's some Swedish videos where the metal vibe comes thru and they are my favorite interpretations. Dan could bring that metal attitude in other JCSS songs. Judas' especially. Yes, please more.
I don’t know if you’ll ever see this comment but you made me feel every word. Thank you for sharing your beautiful gift with me. May our lord bless you.
I seldom watch this, it rips my heart out! Your performance is so POWERFUL!
We got to get this guy on tour!!! Dan has a voice that interprets a song like no other. Dan you really must do a world tour!!
I grew up on Ted Neely from the original 1970’s version and this cover by him has blown my mind. I’m absolutely in love
I have seen Ted Neeley 3 time in super star... and have listened to most all artist doing this song on the internet.. You have The best rendition of this song I have ever heard... Bravo... I would love to see you live in concert anytime... Thank you..
He is amzing. Megastar material. Always has been. He is so principled as to let folks use his music without royalties.
WOW! Was für eine Kraft, was für ein Ausdruck in der Stimme und der Mimik! Und was für eine Botschaft in diesem Song! Ich habe die Szene förmlich in meinem Herzen mitempfunden. Obwohl tausend mal in Filmen gehört, oder auch gelesen. Ich bin kein Christ, aber glaube an eine Schöpfung und, dass es Jesus tatsächlich gab. Wer auch immer er war...! Seine Zweifel, seine Fragen und letztendlich seine Furcht, alles das hat dieser außergewöhnliche Künstler mit seiner Performance wahrhaftig, verständlich und menschlich "transportiert"!
Ich bin zutiefst beeindruckt und dankbar! Love you!! ❤❤❤
I have never heard a singing performer feel the music the way you do. Dan I am not a total critic of music but I know you are the best.
Oh my gosh, Wow, I'm writing from Australia and only recently heard you sing Daniel, I'm absolutely thrilled to listen to you sing. Your range and the passion in which you sing is so beautiful. You feel the passion of every word. I'm so Blessed to have been able to follow such an amazing artist who touches my heart .God Bless you and your family. Amore xx
No other voice to compare with this magnificent voice. He is absolutely incredible.❤
