@@teacherdavid--eatplaylearn5013 Eight hours from now this full version goes live for 48 hours. I was hoping for the version with BVD as Judas and Alice Cooper as Herod. Tim Minchin and Mel C were quite good in this version.
Tim Minchin as Judas is amazing! Watch him rolling his eyes as the words “This is my blood you drink.” are said. I also rewatch the part Tim when screams “Why?!” (5:29) because I feel his frustration.
The fact that at 4:22 he is crying is what gets me. Then at 4:24, he sees Mary and stops crying. He stops himself from crying and I don't know why but I like that little fact.
My favorite moments of this scene and the entire show in general: 2:04 That little "not this shit again" eye-roll 2:20 Jesus starting to become unhinged 3:12 Judas calling out Jesus 3:52 That little mocking bow 4:32 Judas almost leaving but then deciding "nah, fuck it, we're not done talking about this" 5:22 "You'd have managed better if you'd had a plan! WHY?!" The anguish in his voice especially in that last roar is just *chef's kiss*
YES! To all. I think my absolute favourite is the eye roll though. It's so on point. Tim Minchin's performance in this is simply superb, like you said, the way he delivers that last line is so raw and emotional it just gets to the deepest of my soul.
I love how this plays out like a Housewives reality tv show during the big blow up during a dinner party. You have the apostles in the middle of the two fighting that are like: “Shit, Judas-you know how dramatic Jesus can be. He didn’t mean it. Let’s just sit down and keep eating.” And when Judas comes back to start up again, they’re just like; “Fuck. Guess we’re doing this. Let’s just stay quiet and let what happens, happens.”
So, hear me out. Judas seems to be looking for any reason to not betray Jesus in the first verse. Even to the point of saying "If you want this, maybe I'll stay just to spite you." But then when he realizes that Jesus really wasn't gonna fight him on this, he gets angry, frustrated, and even a little hurt leading to the second verse.
Tim's eye roll at 2:05 when he is like "oh no, there goes even more drama" is just perfection. But also, Ben Forster's rage is particularly beautiful here. He is hands down the angriest Jesus I've watched.
Carl’s Judas seems to want the best for everyone. He knows that if Jesus goes down so do the apostles. “But so does Tim’s Judas. It’s the same character”. While true, Tim seems very directed towards Jesus as a friend. He doesn’t want anything bad happening to his friend. And when Jesus wants Judas to go betray him you can practically see Tim’s heart breaking which I think is fantastic acting
3:40 I swear half the plot of this musical is in the subtle little emotions between the lines. The facial expression of Judas and then that subtle little bow at 3:52 is just perfect - he's comprehended the grand plan, realizes how it will make him look, he doesn't want to do it, but will anyway because, ironically, he's the most close and loyal to Jesus.
@@ezelfrancisco1349 Well, without Judas maybe Christ wouldn't have been crucified, he wouldn't have risen, and that would make for a very crummy story.
@@mintybadgerproductions It is deliberately left open for interpretation, as well as Jesus predicting that Peter will deny him, and Judas will betray him - was it supernatural precognition or mere psychological awarness?
5:28 is such a good "why". so fuckin raw. this is the only "why" that I consider to be on the level of the original 1970 version as far as memorability
The ensemble in this song is fantastic. I’ve never heard the Apostles’ lines sung so clearly with such clear harmonies. There’s something to be said for the more humble versions of the movie and even the original album, but just from a musical perspective this sounds fantastic.
Someone posted audio on RUclips of what this sounded without pitch correction and basically Tim Minchin didn’t need it and he sounded just like this without the weird mechanical distortion on his sustained vowels or runs. The guy who played Jesus on the other hand...... oof. It sounded like he fried his voice and had a really hard time with the belts. His falsetto was fine, but the belting/shouting parts were bad.
@@Sharpe1502 I like to think that that was just one bad performance after straining his voice a bit too much and he’s actually a much better singer than that.
Tim Minchin is the best Judas in this production. His performance was believable and agonizing. He didn't just sing but acted the part as well. Tim got your attention and held on to it in all his scenes. Bravo! 👏👏👏👏
Just wish he wasn't autotuned. Sometimes it's hard to listen to him cos it sounds so robotic, even though from his face alone you can see he's really acting the part.
This competes pretty heavily with the original movie for quality, tbh. This one has a lot of amazing performances, one of my favorite being Pilate, Judas(Minchin does a WONDERFUL job), and Jesus ofc
Ughhhh!! The DYNAMICS between Minchin (Judas) and Forster (Jesus) is what gets me EVERY TIME I watch this production! They each bring so much to their character portrayals and play off each other perfectly! It's just SO. FREAKIN. GOOD! Come on Musical Theater!
I love how marry comforts one of the followers, they just saw their literal leader who is supposed to be all loving loose his crap and hit someone, and they need someone to help them cling on to the faith that what they're doing is good, and it's a lot like that in real life, once someone you know snaps in front of you it doesn't matter how many good things they've done in front of you, you would have a hard time looking at them the same way. Sorry if my English isn't very good it's not my native language

I like that this musical has been enjoyed by people of diff religions, and shows a bit of what christians believe while not shoving theologies in peoples faces, so people can have a common ground of understanding (meaning it allows people to understand where we come from), but it is also able to tell so many heartfelt stories, that of judas, pilate, peter, and jesus. it gets into the grit of some of it without pg-ifying it, and it was revolutionary at the time it was first made, and it was super divisive, but it seems that all the controversy has died down and people are enjoying it. also everyone in this musical has beautiful voices.
Thinking this was more intense than a lot of renditions of this scene And then they started pushing each other and I, quite frankly, almost jumped out of my seat One of the best/coolest versions of this dynamic I've seen
“ this is my blood you drink, this is my body you eat, if you would remember me when you eat and drink “ ( 2:03 ) that’s my favorite part ❤️ I love how he sings it
What annoys me most about the use of autotune is that on top of being unnecessary it's not even well excecuted autotune. Like almost all recordings have some sort of subtle pitch correction but the autotune here is so harsh and sloppily done that it's actually distracting from the actual vocals which autotune should never do. Like if this is what your audio engineer hands you after post production, fire your audio engineer they're bad at their job.
A cast recording?? As in with no video? You can find it on here, sadly not on Spotify. If you search up ‘JCS 2012 Cast Recording’ you are bound to find it! :))
Wishing the Tim Minchin versions of the songs were available on iTunes, but hat way I could listen to them all the time and be constantly doubting my faith as I should be.
@@marcogarcia6723 Listen to the bit just after 5:10 where Judas sings "I don't understand". For a brief moment he sounds like a robot as the autotune locks onto the higher pitch. There are several places in this clip alone that you can hear it once you know what you're listening for. Apparently Tim Minchin who plays Judas was really angry they autotuned him.
Have you seen the Ted Neeley and Carl Anderson version from the 1973 movie? It rips your heart out just as effectively, but in a completely different way.
oh I dont think so, mediocre acting, strange melodies (so much different than original) a nd so much autotune... I think our czech musical without acting is better than this weird attempt
Nobody: Me: **Trying to sing Jesus and Judas at once while playing guitar, failing and deciding to actually using Ben and Tim recording, still flapping my hands on my guitar like a bird, that can't fly** 😂 The part "cut out the dramatics" has actually some quick chord changes...
I saw the 2018 version first and thought, holy shit this is amazing there can’t be anything better than this, then saw this version and realized how wrong I was
The autotune on "my body" literally shook me out of the experience, it was so jarring! We don't need autotune for live performances, that's the point of a live performance
From what I've read, the live performance didn't have any autotune, they added it in later even though Minchin was against it. It's such a shame, you can tell the performances are great and I love Tim Minchin but it all gets ruined by the tuning.
Even so, Tim doesn't need it. Why add it? I honestly can't speak for the others but I've heard enough of Tim's stuff to know. Even if there was a small mistake, they're almost even better, cuz then you know it was live. Maybe I'm just showing my age but audiences are losing sight of this. Literally anyone can get famous if auto tune is allowed everywhere without fail 😕🤷
@@pawprints1986 He's on record on a podcast released after the DVD saying he was really fucking pissed off about it, they didn't ask him or anything. He said something like "I know I have plenty of weaknesses in my voice, but staying on pitch isn't one of them and autotuning my performance was completely unnecessary and really fucking rude"
Hands down the best version ever produced that was filmed. The directing and quality of acting and singing is so amazing. The current US tour is pure garbage next to this
This is such a great performance, but the microphones I swear are really low-quality. The singing is not as crystal-clear as it should be when they start singing more loudly. It's a shame because this is such a good production. I wish the singing would have been preserved better. Does anyone else have issues with that?
it kinda tops out as they very stupidly added autotune to the main vocalists (especially Minchin) in post-production for the dvd release and subsequent showings of it. He's an incredible singer who was shafted by the production company by that decision.
I know he is about to turn you in and get you crucified, but Jesus, did you really have to hit grunge Judas with the high Gethsemane note not once, but twice?! That seemed uncalled for
Watch more from Jesus Christ Superstar here! : ruclips.net/p/PLRImnjFIgJIVEY3Vt7NzAoJJRdSb4zO7z
Thanks for posting this song! I've been hoping to watch it again for a while, I think it's my favorite song from the show.
Hope you will play it again in the upcoming Easter😍 ...like you did last year. 😉

I like it all
I love how Judas is sat there rolling his eyes. "Yes, Jesus, we're eating your body. You fucking drama queen."
🤣
“I’m sure it’s a one time thing J just drink, don’t think about it”
I love that they use their names as insults “Christ! You deserve it!” “You liar! You, Judas!” So clever!
@Elly van den Brink It's a stealth pun on how Judas became synonymous to "traitor".
I thought the Judas bit read more as “you liar, you, Judas”
@@mileschicken1 I think it works both ways that's why it's great
@Elly van den Brink always thought it was dumb aswell
Christ isn't a name though, but a title.
"Cut out the dramatics, you know very well who" is the greatest line of all time 😅
I like when Judas sings, "Tables, chairs, and oaken chests, would have suited Jesus best / He'd have caused nobody harm, no one alarm."
Yeah lol "Cut the bullshit, son of god, you may have a heads-up on the divine plan but you're a fucking DRAMA QUEEN!"
I love it
Or as the kids these days say: Don't be shy bestie, drop the @ 😌🙄
Omg yep!!! Good taste
I like "What if I just stayed here and ruined your ambition?"
Judas and Jesus : *couple fight*
Everyone else: 👁👄👁
“You sad pathetic man” that whole section is one of my favorite moments in the entire score. And Tim absolutely crushes it!!
For me it's the "Every time I look at you I don't understand" bit. So good!
@@Sgene17 When he takes the second phrase major, I floated out of my seat. Transcendence and awesome musicality.
The fact that at 4:22 he is crying is what gets me. Then at 4:24, he sees Mary and stops crying. He stops himself from crying and I don't know why but I like that little fact.
I never noticed that!! Great eye for some great staging. Thanks for pointing it out!
Judas’ ragged “WHHHYYYY” at the end of this song has me SOBBING whenever I watch this performance
😭😭😭😭
My favorite moments of this scene and the entire show in general:
2:04 That little "not this shit again" eye-roll
2:20 Jesus starting to become unhinged
3:12 Judas calling out Jesus
3:52 That little mocking bow
4:32 Judas almost leaving but then deciding "nah, fuck it, we're not done talking about this"

Hard agree, I would just like to add the little xylophone run at 2:50
That last one lives in my mind rent free

That's true about Ben. Interesting take on it.

Ballsy move of Judas to repeat this back to him in Superstar to gloat at Jesus
Wow... this is the first production I've seen where Judas actually outsings Jesus. He is so damn good!
Tim Minchin is a badass.

Look at all my trials and tribulations
Sinking in a gentle pool of wine
Don't disturb me now; I can see the answers
Till 'this evening' is 'this morning', life is fine
Always hoped that I'd be an apostle
Knew that I would make it if I tried
Then when we retire we can write the gospels
So they'll still talk about us when we've died

Ten minutes after I'm dead!
One of you denies me
One of you betrays me -

Three times will deny me - and that's not all I see

Then when we retire we can write the gospels
So they'll all talk about us when we die

Our ideals die around us, all because of you
And now the saddest cut of all:
Someone has to turn you in
Like a common criminal, like a wounded animal
A jaded mandarin
A jaded mandarin
A jaded jaded faded mandarin
[JESUS]
Get out! They're waiting! Get out!

When judas sings the opening line to superstar... I've honestly got chills
Tim's reaction at 2:28 so genuine
I like that this musical has been enjoyed by people of diff religions, and shows a bit of what christians believe while not shoving theologies in peoples faces, so people can have a common ground of understanding (meaning it allows people to understand where we come from), but it is also able to tell so many heartfelt stories, that of judas, pilate, peter, and jesus. it gets into the grit of some of it without pg-ifying it, and it was revolutionary at the time it was first made, and it was super divisive, but it seems that all the controversy has died down and people are enjoying it. also everyone in this musical has beautiful voices.

4:30 is one of the best pieces of music in this entire show
4:48 if this line isn’t sung like this now i don’t want it
Thinking this was more intense than a lot of renditions of this scene
And then they started pushing each other and I, quite frankly, almost jumped out of my seat
One of the best/coolest versions of this dynamic I've seen

Jesus: I thought you were bae, turns out you're just fam
Everyone: Bruh
please post Damned For All Time or King Herod's song they are my favorite... but yes I do love all of JCS songs thanks for uploading this!
My thoughts exactly !!
“ this is my blood you drink, this is my body you eat, if you would remember me when you eat and drink “ ( 2:03 ) that’s my favorite part ❤️ I love how he sings it
I love that Jesus pushed back.
Ben Forester is truly an amazing Jesus ❤️
I noticed that when he said one of you will be betray me, no one looked at Judas as if it was impossible for him to be the one to do it
3:01 Peter was like: "Geez Jesus, was this really necessary?".

This production should have been playing forever. Amazing.
I have watched all small parts you share more than 30 times each. But still not enough. Please upload the whole musical for 48 hours. we need this!!!!
there is NOTHING more spectacular than this show. wow. just wow.
I love the expressions of the apostles and disciples in the background. Their expressions suggest Judas hits a little too close to home.
Tim Minch and Ben Forster singing in one song is perfect 👌
This is easily the best production of jesus christ superstar
3:47 is always in my head
“Our ideals die around us and all because of YOU” is such a cold line
Please post “Judas’ Death”, “The Temple”, “What’s the Buzz?/Strange Thing Mystifying” & “King Herod’s Song”
Tim can sing about Jaded Mandarines and it sounds awesome.
My absolute favourite JCS song 🥰
Me too!
Have you seen the Ted Neeley and Carl Anderson version from the 1973 movie? It rips your heart out just as effectively, but in a completely different way.
The number of times I have watched this in the last five days is frankly unhealthy.
Oh man, this makes me miss live musical productions so much.😞
Yes, live audiences, the lights, the costumes, the whole shebang. It’s not the same on a screen sometimes.
No doubt the best staging of JCS!
Yes!
oh I dont think so, mediocre acting, strange melodies (so much different than original) a nd so much autotune... I think our czech musical without acting is better than this weird attempt
@@rainix3098 It all comes down to opinions.
Nobody:
Me: **Trying to sing Jesus and Judas at once while playing guitar, failing and deciding to actually using Ben and Tim recording, still flapping my hands on my guitar like a bird, that can't fly** 😂
The part "cut out the dramatics" has actually some quick chord changes...
So no one cared about our poor boy Peter when he was nearly sent to kiss the ground at 3:01 by Jesus
Have I just watched the best 7 minutes on RUclips?
I saw the 2018 version first and thought, holy shit this is amazing there can’t be anything better than this, then saw this version and realized how wrong I was
This Judas is amazing!
The autotune on "my body" literally shook me out of the experience, it was so jarring! We don't need autotune for live performances, that's the point of a live performance
From what I've read, the live performance didn't have any autotune, they added it in later even though Minchin was against it. It's such a shame, you can tell the performances are great and I love Tim Minchin but it all gets ruined by the tuning.
5:12 "I don't understand" is just insane. I wonder how the raw audio would sound
I must be deaf I don't hear it 😅. "Soooo-oooo-ooh out of hand" I do hear.
The Movie from 1973 is really remarkable and the cast is very good. It's good to remember Lloyd Weber in 2023 and one of his masterpieces.
Best Jusus Christ Super Star ever, all characters.
4 dislikes? Looks like 4 people are jaded mandarins
5 people now
or people know that this is actaully a pretty mediocre version and the acting is very basic and that they have auto tune mics but hey ho
@@lukebingham9001 you do know that the auto tune wasn’t live, right?
@@lukebingham9001 At least they know how to spell actually. Lol
King herod's fake accounts
One of the biggest offenses in this production is forcing Tim Minchin to use autotune.
yeah why is that a thing im
confused
It was not used live, it was added in the sound mixing for the dvd.
Even so, Tim doesn't need it. Why add it? I honestly can't speak for the others but I've heard enough of Tim's stuff to know. Even if there was a small mistake, they're almost even better, cuz then you know it was live. Maybe I'm just showing my age but audiences are losing sight of this. Literally anyone can get famous if auto tune is allowed everywhere without fail 😕🤷
@@pawprints1986 He's on record on a podcast released after the DVD saying he was really fucking pissed off about it, they didn't ask him or anything. He said something like "I know I have plenty of weaknesses in my voice, but staying on pitch isn't one of them and autotuning my performance was completely unnecessary and really fucking rude"
Tim Minchin can’t sing and he can’t write music. Matilda is as much of a disaster as his casting in this
Hands down the best version ever produced that was filmed. The directing and quality of acting and singing is so amazing. The current US tour is pure garbage next to this
4:33 when the music changes man its soo good
Tim Minchin just has that solid perfect rock voice.
Tim was so good
I love how Well Ben and Tim Play Angry through Song ❤❤
3:27 I find it interesting that Jesus only calls Judas a liar after Judas says I despise you, because Hatred and love are so often the same coin
This musical is so beautiful.
Powerful version. Great job and emotion comes through!
One of my favourites from this show!
I never had seen a performance so spetacular, in voices and body expression
This is such a great performance, but the microphones I swear are really low-quality. The singing is not as crystal-clear as it should be when they start singing more loudly. It's a shame because this is such a good production. I wish the singing would have been preserved better. Does anyone else have issues with that?
I think it’s more of the quality uploaded in YT. I bought a copy from Apple TV and they sounded fine in full volume, at least for me
it kinda tops out as they very stupidly added autotune to the main vocalists (especially Minchin) in post-production for the dvd release and subsequent showings of it. He's an incredible singer who was shafted by the production company by that decision.
I know he is about to turn you in and get you crucified, but Jesus, did you really have to hit grunge Judas with the high Gethsemane note not once, but twice?! That seemed uncalled for
It's nothing like the original movie, nothing like it, you can see that they have add feeling in the words they sing.
Замечательное исполнение! Эта рок опера- одна из моих любимых. Спасибо!!!
OMG I love the piano at 4:55 and 4:57 it fits so nice
I love the differences in Tim’s tone compared to other productions. An-im-AAALLL bloody beautiful
I watch this on Broadway HD at least once a month, such an amazing production ❤️
Que maravilla, me gustaria verlo en vivo en Colombia
i didn't get a chance to see it so hopefully we can have it again?
We need Just need a compilation of all the Pilate songs in this production
No autotune , no playback , no syncs just pure voice talent ❤
Except Judas has auto tune 🙃
@@mrjukeboxparty4563 No he does not ....
I love this show so much. The emotion is so amazing and heartbreakinh
Quiero llorar de lo bonito que se escucha
I didn’t expect me to be so emotional about this! :’(
