@@Hoss_Delgado977 It's intentionally a "modernist" meta-musical, which this film in particular makes in clear from the very start, when you actually see the actors arrive on the bus and change into their characters. Unlike a film like Passion of the Christ, where you're supposed to pretend you're there in the moment watching the story unfold as a roving eye, in this case you're supposed to be watching a traveling group of actors in the desert putting on a musical play about Jesus. A lot of modernist musicals (like Hamilton, Godspell, Chicago) intentionally use inaccurate costumes to reinforce the distance between the performers and the story.
Jan Dulles competes, and this is coming from the biggest Carl Anderson fan out there. Search "Heaven On Their Minds Jan Dulles" and please tell me what you think, and if the dude I suggested lives up to your expectations!
THIS is how to do a theatrical number that knocks people's socks off & grabs them by the shoulders ! This is simply how it's done. Carl, you did that to us & we thank you. RESPECT.
The ending feels like he's crying for Jesus' attention and is completely ignored. Jesus is spearheading to be sacrificed. Judas' worst fears comes true. Carl Anderson was made for this role.
The movie plays both Judas and Mary in love with the man while everyone else loves the “messiah” and while Mary just wants to help, Judas can’t deal with it.
Heard many versions of this song over the years , but nothing compares to Carl Anderson’s performance . This is the definitive version of this song, all heads must bow ! Just incredible!!!! WOW
It still gives me chills ... I was so fortunate, to see him perform this LIVE with the Original Cast, on their anniversary tour... I tell everyone, what you hear in this clip, is exactly what he sounded like LIVE... Truly incredible... So powerful... A gift from the Heavens... Dearly missed... 😎🙏🇨🇦
@@sealandland3959 "You are very welcome. I have the film on Blu-ray and watch it at least a few times a year. I also have it on CD in my truck. When I want to get inspired, I put it on. His voice and range was unbelievable, as was the entire cast. Great memories." 😎🙏
I'm here, in the middle of the nigth, trying to sleep. but I feel so emocional and inspired by this song. Is just phenomenal. Carl Anderson, wherever you are, thank you so much for your talent and art ❤
I had the fortunate opportunity to know him as a child. My older brother played music with him before Superstar. In fact they were playing the sound track in a church when he was tapped to do the Broadway then movie. My brother and Carl traveled the world playing together after the movie was released.
The original soundtrack from the Broadway production was a popular album before the movie was made. My brothers band was playing that with Carl when he was tapped to do Broadway then the movie
The Bible talks about all of Jesus is disciples, and even describes their point of view and a few of the scriptures and books, but not too much mystery is lifted around Judas. That’s one of the reasons I love this play so much.
I saw this movie at the theater when it was 1st released. No One...Noone sings this song better than Carl Anderson! Its 50 years later & i listen 2 this often. Nothing comparez
Listen--I was raised in an irreligious context--wasn't raised religious, neither were my parents, though I come from a Christian (Protestant) background, in America. I was privileged to meet Carl Anderson after one of his last performances as Judas. I have also learned since that there is some doubt as to the identity and even existence of Judas Iscariot. Let us just grant that Carl Anderson made us all think about the basis of Western European civilization 😀
Mate, the two best Judas I ever heard were Jon English (70s) and Jon Stevens (90s) from the Australia productions. They had real edge. Webber and Rice hinted as much in interviews.
May be an unpopular opinion but while I love Jesus Christ Superstar the movie is probably my least favourite version. I’ll take any live version or the original concept album any day
Jesus: dressed according to middle eastern traditional attire.
Judas: Disco night out.
The Disciples: Dressed like hippies
Lmao how have I never thought about that before. Why do you think they had him dress like that?

And looking mighty fine!
@@ramonserna8089 🤣 lol wow🤯 i never noticed that...& I have to agree.
This is THE best version. No one is a better Judas than Carl Anderson.
absolutely
Actually, I love Tim Minchin... But I can't choose between him and Carl Anderson
@@danilazakharov4034 Eh... It's a bit hard for me to make the decision, since Tim Minchin's recording got butchered by autotune.
I agree

Carl was born to do this performance. It was his destiny. Well done thou good and faithful servant.

& he's lamenting the idea that Judean hope is going into the dumper because the Romans have their military boots on their throats.

*“He won’t listen to me!”*
9 year old me: Maybe because you’re on a cliff? Just walk closer!
This is my favourite rendition of Heaven On Their Minds. Less shouty, more expressive.
Alice Cooper did a great job as Judas in the Live TV show

Thank you sir from deepest of my soul, he was was a singing Valkiria
very jealous
Wow .. that would of been a show

@@manynoree2173 "It was spectacular. I appreciate it more as time has passed. A beautiful memory." 😎🙏
Terrific singing! It's been 50 years but I keep going back to listen to Carl Anderson sing this song.

Gone too soon.

The soundtrack came out first?

@@carlrausch3847 wow! Thank you for that! Very interesting!
I was ten years old when I first heard this song, his singing is unforgettable...it blew me away then and still does. He passed away way too young 😢
I have the original sound track from the musical. One of my all time favourite LPs.
Carl Anderson is the OG.. nobody will ever replace him.
The cinematography in this film was unbelievably amazing.
Carl Anderson becomes my spirit animal in this song.
There have been a number of excellent performances of this song, but noone comes close to Carl Anderson. He will always be the ultimate Judas.
The Bible talks about all of Jesus is disciples, and even describes their point of view and a few of the scriptures and books, but not too much mystery is lifted around Judas. That’s one of the reasons I love this play so much.
The cast never knew what a masterpiece they created!
Nobody has ever come close to this.
& very likely nobody else will either.
He’s definitely great but idk if nobody’s come close. I love JCS but I think the movie version is overrated
Brandon Victor Dixon & Tim Minchin would like to say hi
No one could have played Judas better than Carl Anderson… absolutely talented. What a voice 😮
An INCREDIBLE actor/vocalist taken from us way too soon ... this performance is perfection
i loooove carl anderson’s judas because he delivered in almost every way- acting movement and voice all dramatized to the perfect degree
This is Carl Anderson. One of my favs
Carl is the best Judas ever.He will be missed
I saw this movie at the theater when it was 1st released. No One...Noone sings this song better than Carl Anderson! Its 50 years later & i listen 2 this often. Nothing comparez
Is it true the movie was super popular for a long time after it was released?
WHAT A VOICE!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Wonderful. Nailed it so completely, no-one else could ever come as close as this. Period.
Such a beautiful and powerfull performance.
Have loved this movie since childhood! I love the JCS score
That Riff! That Voice❤ eg: 1:56 and 2:53, 3:39 ....and those lyrics !
He was a good man what loss, poor Jesus! Poor Judas!
Legend! So beatiful, so powerful... Carl Anderson is a true legend. RIP
Best song and best performance in the piece.
OMG the best voice I have ever heard. Crazy talent.
Hard to believe it’s been 50 years
I'll never forget Jesus introducing me to Judus. Many thank Ted and Carl.
I should watch this movie. Oh lord, yes i do.
Definitely have to watch the movie
YES!
Magnificent through and through.
Wow. What a master.
Carl Anderson ✝️🙏

Incredible Voice!
His best friend did not want him to sacrify himself😊
Great movie. Great talent. Not biblical. But can still b moving. JUdas point of view of what happened.
That intro guitar riff...Anne Clark's "Our Darkness"
Absolutely
Judas is the goat ❤
Il migliore
I always LOVE this caracter, he is the real soul of that history, his voice break your hart
слишком талантливо!
Around 2:00. A lot of feet have walked that trail.
Carl Anderson único

LOL! No and no.
😢👏👏👏👏👏

Don't compare, might be you favorite not best
HE WAS A SINGING GOD... SO SAD HE DIED
😮
Judas fifty feet away from Jesus: Why won't you listen to me?
Jesus:...What?
