  • Ted Neely....what a performer! A Powerful Beautiful Performer and one of the best of our time without a doubt. In my opinion, and many worldwide, there is no other actor/singer that has or can portray Jesus Christ as magnificently and powerfully and full of spirit as Ted Neely does. A young man when he first played the role of Jesus Christ in the film Jesus Christ Superstar, now a gentleman in his sixties who still has the magnetism, all the power, the incredible talent, the voice as you will see here...WOW! This video was recorded during the beginning of what was called the 'Farewell tour' in 2006. Ted Neeley stars once again as Jesus Christ. In this performance he actually was performing ill which was affecting his voice but with all his Amazing talent and craft, he still puts forth an Amazing performance with this song. As seen on the video, cast members are in awe and feeling the power of his every emotion. Thanks Ted Neely for sharing with the world all these years your extraordinary Gift of Talent! ......Sharon

    Toured with Neely in this show in the early.80s. Every. NIght the cast watched this part from the wings in stunned silence. It was nearly exactly the same.every night. I dont recall him ever having a bad night. His voice never failed him. A humble, kind man. Beloved by everyone.

      Awesome! What an incredible experience for you. He’s one of a kind. He has such great in-depth emotional life when he sings, and his voice is superior to all others. No one else like him nor will there ever be.

    I am thrilled to see that Ted's crew are also on their "ear knees", with admiration and astonishment. I bet they want to run onto the stage and go all "Morrissey fans" on him. Imagine being this close to that legend when he sings THAT SONG? Long live Ted, please and thank you, God, Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber. Has anyone ever noticed that the place Gethsemane isn't featured in this fantastical, timeless song? I have it stuck in my mind often. Oh Ted, Oh life! I am so glad to have be born in the time of YOU, dear darling Ted.

    I'm 65 years old and first heard Jesus Christ Superstar in grade 8 religion class. I was hooked. I bought the albums, learned all the words, still know most of them. I went to the theater to watch the movie, then saw the live show at the Civic Centre in Ottawa. This song makes me want to cry, and there will never be another Ted Neely. These high notes are the best and as you see the cast behind the curtain react in tears, that's how I feel every time I hear it, and believe me, I've heard it many, many, many times, I sang it too, if you can call it that. Thank you Ted, and all the cast, for the best Rock Opera ever. Love all the original cast.

      Ted Neely is one of a kind. Amazing talent. He’s able to put his whole heart and soul into everything he sings, and he brought Jesus Christ to life like no one else. He brings tears to my eyes in this song. It is so raw and real. A great talented actor, too.

      That's weird, isn't it? It kind of affects me the same way. I think it's because Jesus was a young man when he died and we compare our lives to his. I don't know, but I understand you.

      Muzykosłuchacz Actually this particular cast and crew had never heard him preform this song before. Due to the death of Carl Anderson the last time he sung the song was at his funeral. He refused to sing it during rehearsals. It was so bad that the director of the production asked him if he was going to have to find someone else to preform the song. Ted assured him that he would sing it and sure enough he did. So in short, this was actually the first time that they saw him preform the song. But you are correct we should all be in awe of this man, he is truly a legend.

    No puedo dejar de llorar. Querida Sharon, gracias por bajar este video. Mis amigos me hacen bromas con Jesus Christ porque soy un absoluto fanático de esta obra. Con el tiempo, poco a poco, he revalorizado el papel de Ted Neely en la obra y sobre todo, esta canción en la que Jesus se muestra desgarradoramente humano. Pero ese desgarro y esa humanidad pura de Jesus se hacen mucho más profundas gracias a la interpretación inspirada, apasionada de Neely. Gracias nuevamente.

    Personally, I think Steve Balsamo sings this song far better than anyone can ever hope to match. I also think his acting is superb...that being said, Ted gives an amazingly chilling performance. Certainly because of his acting skill, but also perhaps because he looks/sounds like he actually IS going to die

    Namdooga you must not have read my description or you'd know Ted Neely, who is now in his sixties, not only still performs as the true professional he is & w/tremendous talent & craft BUT HE PERFORMED THIS SONG WHILE HE WAS ILL.And for an actor/singer to even put forth what he did here while physically ill is a true testimony to his professionalism, loyality, strong will AND talent.As for fans, this fact alone should validate his greatness & he can be forgiven for a missed beat & croaky scream.

      Everyone ages and all our voices change as we do, but Ted Neely can still hit those high notes like nobody else. Ian Gillian is good, too, but Neely, in my opinion, has the charisma and real emotion behind everything he sings like none other. Even in his older age.
