Simply the best. The best voice for this role because of its purity. The best soul for this role, unquestionably, because you feel it at every level, which Steve has the ability to convey with all of his music.
Absolutely fabulous performance!! If you loved this, watch his performance from 2004...you'll be blown away! The emotion he puts into this is unmatched...you'll feel it ...:)
Terri McCann I'm completely you on that. I've never seen anyone get so emotionally wrapped up in the character. Have you heard the Lloyd Webber story? "At the auditions he cried when he sang it. So I said; 'Do it again...' And he did!" Little secret though... I still prefer Ted. He's the only one who's ever made *me* cry...
Steve Balsamo best JC on stage.
I know! I was lucky enough to see him when I was little! The guy is incredible the only Jesus there was for me on the stage

Same here! Will never forget his JC!

Exactly, its purity. His voice moves me.
I wish Steve would come to the US to perform. He is one of my favorites. No one can compare to his performance as Jesus in Superstar.
Check Szomor Gyorky's performance of Gethsemane.
Lo q me gustaria es q viniera a España, pero es solo un sueño.
He is the best at singing this song.

@@PointlessSillyName I didn't know that, thank you!
@@PointlessSillyName I never really cared for Ted. He kept doing this part much longer than he should have.
WOW !!! Stunning performance .💖
The definitive Musical Theatre Jesus! Moving, beautiful, devastating and tinged with something special. I think he was gifted to play this role!
He is a beautiful singer/performer
Steve - legend.
My dream cast is definitely Balsamo and Sarich. They could probably even trade off playing Judas/Jesus for different performances. XD
I like Ted Neeley's performance of this song in the film but if I went to a theatre I'd want this version by Steve Balsamo.... amazing range!
Great
Thank you for uploading this! he's my favourite Jesus
wonderful perfomances
Now THIS is a live JCS performance
Amazing
My favourite
Great..
He's AMAZING, one of the three best Jcs' interpreters together to Ian Gillan and Ted Neeley!
Does anyone has a bootleg with Steve Balsamo?
Wales finest
Does anyone have a 'live' version of this, from 96??? OR, a tape of the entire performance of the play???
There are a few complete bootlegs around but unfortunately almost all of them have pretty bad sound quality.
@@JCSZone where can I get them, please?
I want one too hahaha
Check out the JCS Zone Forum: www.jesuschristsuperstarzone.com/forum a lot of people are trading recordings there.
There isnew footage of this just put up from 96, its INCREDIBLE!
Ci sarà mai una registrazione completa dell'opera? ❤❤❤
미친다 진짜.... 구린 음질을 뚫고 나오네
ㅇㅈ
Is he singing in C# or is the recording?
C 5
Is this speeded up? If not, those notes are impossible
Hi friend
