    After the arrest of Jesus, his disciples look to rebuild in the song 'Could We Start Again Please' from Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice's musical Jesus Christ Superstar.
    From Jesus Christ Superstar (2012): Director Laurence Connor presents this contemporary re-imagining of Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice's legendary rock musical Jesus Christ Superstar. The world renowned phenomenon portrays the story of the last seven days of Christ leading up to his crucifixion as seen through the eyes of Judas Iscariot. Filmed as an arena rock opera, the performance features a star-studded line-up which includes award-winning musical comedian, Tim Minchin as the role of Judas Iscariot; pop icon and former Spice Girl Melanie C as Mary Magdalene; radio DJ Chris Moyles in his stage debut as King Herod; and Ben Forster, to take on the title role of Jesus. This award-winning creative team is sure to captivate audiences and transform the hugely popular stage production into a unique, modern, state-of-the-art spectacular.

    Mel C interpretation of Mary Magadelen was exceptional to include the subtle symbolic ways she interprets Mary's change of direction in her life. This score always bring a tear to my eye. Mel C manages to draw you in to the pain and conflict of the character in a natural and subtle way. Never it and never over playing it just SPOT ON. What a natural talent.

    This is a fantastic song and a humanistic point of view. Jesus was crucified and Mary and Peter don't know what to do or say. "I think you've made your point now" ...very strong. Their asking the Saviour to call a truce and let everything just be as it was....but it cant be.

    I hated this version of Superstar because Tim Minchins autotuned voice was terrible...and totally unnecessary as the man can sing but Judas is a powerful part and he just doesn't fit it.
    Loved the original and the one with Steve Balsaro playing Jesus.

      I have to agree that is auto tune is awful and he isn’t my favourite (that goes to Peter Johansson) but his acting is fantastic and does Judas breakdown the best (Jerome Pardon did also act it well but I can’t stand his singing). I think he fits the role well and the rest of the cast is spectacular. I understand if one role does ruin the whole thing for you, that happened to me with Jerome Pardon in the 2000 version.

      Steve Balsamo's was the tops for me too - my best friend absentmindedly mentioned she saw it during her GCSEs and I was like - you're so lucky!!

    The autotune in this sounds dreadful. It's honestly disrespectful to all the actors involved. Worse stage show of JC I've ever seen.

    I used to wonder why they repeated the same lyrics over and over. Now I think the idea of this song was to represent a desperate prayer which the characters repeat over and over to deal with the reality they're facing.

      Tim Rice did add a couple more verses for the twentieth anniversary tour in about 1990, but these two extra verses have hardly been heard since, which is a shame. If I were directing a production, I would certainly use them if I could. For the record these two extra verses are:-
      Wish I could reassure you,
      Wish I could talk to you and tell you how I feel,
      This was unexpected, what do I do now?
      Could we start again please.
      You surely know I love you,
      But something in me stands aside and lets you slip away,
      Perhaps that's what you wanted, perhaps I want that too,
      Oh could we start again please.
