You can tell by the 'He won't listen' riff that he's been studying the Carl Anderson version. Which also explains the lack of ending cause hoo boy did Carl have weird fade out endings
I am sitting here in a house with paper-thin walls and two other roommates at 1 a.m., trying so hard not to burst out in laughter ... this is so hilarious, I will never be mad at another bad recording ever again. I'll see the humor in it instead. Thanks!
Wow. I honest to God haven't laughed so hard in years. From 3:42 - 3:54 I laughed so hard at your facial expressions I had tears in my eyes. The best part though (at 3:54) it's like you hear us laughing at you so you start laughing too. Absolutely hysterical, you are the best! lol
One of my favorite scores in all the world, and Seth Rudetsky made the worst recording listenable by making it hilarious! You are simply delicious. I don't think I've ever laughed so hard in all my life. Thanks you.
Seth I was craving a laugh and remembered how hard I laughed at your story of fosse Barbara Walters on the ladder, and I stumbled upon this gem which I had forgotten all about. I’m 😭 crying!!! How many times did you have to listen to this godawful mess that you have every nuance memorized! Omg. Saved for a rainy day when I need a good laugh.
i have to sing this for an auditon and now i cant anymore cuz i have his face in front of me and i start to laugh like an idiot alone...... OMG !!!!!! i die at everytime there is the GO-OO (D) part........ help!!!ahahhahaahhah
As a non-native english speaker is very hard to me to understand ... you speak very fast xD. Anyway after watching this video 3times I found this hilarious, not the best Judas I've heard hahahaha. Funny!
You can find videos of the 2005 Amstetten production here on yt. Drew played Judas there (and he was fierce)! As for official recordings, I think there are none
On the 7/8 section, he appears to have also mispronounced Nazareth with “Nazeray”. Very bizarre. I can’t tell if this singer is Asian, Italian or Middle Eastern.
Sounds like a horrible karaoke track with a vocalist who is the match of its quality. Incidentally, you've always been deeply involved with the Actors' Fund benefit concerts, and I remember you once telling me you wanted to do an Evita concert with Patti in the lead... who would you cast in a JCS concert of that type? I'm guessing Drew might get a part judging by your comment below?

Also the whispered "we are occupied" is from the Carl Anderson version.
Oh God, I lost it when that extra riffer came outta nowhere. You face and reactions just make everything 10x funnier
Dear Lord, I was laughing so hard that at one point I could neither see nor hear. Thanks, I needed that!

I think this is your funniest deconstruction ever. I was in hysterics the whole time. Where did you FIND this recording?!
Absolutely hilarious on so many levels. Love the aeolian scales being practiced in the adjoining room!
Wow. I honest to God haven't laughed so hard in years. From 3:42 - 3:54 I laughed so hard at your facial expressions I had tears in my eyes. The best part though (at 3:54) it's like you hear us laughing at you so you start laughing too. Absolutely hysterical, you are the best! lol
Deconstructions should come with a warning. I was laughing so hard I started choking and coughing.
Hilarious! You’re the best! I love how you made fun of this without being cruel.
I come back to this video when I need a good laugh. Thank you!
Oh Seth. How I do love thee!!! I've watched this three times. Can't stop giggling!
Lord, thank you for this. I'm like the laughing buzzard at the end of 'Baby New Year'.

Back after two years....So hysterical!!!
If you want a good version may I suggest Drew Sarich (sp?) Also are there still tickets for the London gig??
THANK YOU!! I was gonna say that. He’s my fav. May I suggest his Judus’ Death scene.
Oh my god, I'm laughing so friggin hard, I am choking and tears are coming out of my eyes.

IM LAUGHING SO HARD AT YOUR REACTIONS. THIS IS TOO FUNNY
This is seriously so funny, I was cracking up the whole entire video.
Omg....going sooouuurrrr....!!haha
Wow that first man is sharpity sharp sharp.
Metal hands? bwahahaa! Congratulations, Seth. You killed me.
i have to sing this for an auditon and now i cant anymore cuz i have his face in front of me and i start to laugh like an idiot alone...... OMG !!!!!! i die at everytime there is the GO-OO (D) part........ help!!!ahahhahaahhah
best Judas I have ever heard was Jan dulles, also a non native English speaker. Look up his Heaven on Their Minds. It will change your life.
This is fantastic
Bahahaha that was hilarious, Seth! Where on Earth did you find this recording? It seems like a GarageBand project gone sour...
gooone SOOOOOOUR!!!!
Hi, Seth!!!! I was wondering if you might be able to do one of these for any song from Wildhorn's Dracula? I prefer The Mist or All is Dark. Lol.
i've watched this like 5 times today. i can't haahahaha
I absolutely love this video. And I now hate Seth because once you hear those piano riffs you can never not hear them again. So perfect.

According to Shazam it's a karaoke, but I feel like I can research more, because I NEED TO KNOW.
laugh/clap/crying
I thought it was hysterical.
I watched this again today and I laughed so hard I am still crying.Who is the guy singing?
He should deconstruct Murray Head.
Oh my days, this is funny!!! 😱 😂 🙌
Is there a recording of Drew Sarich playing Judas? I have two recordings of him as Jesus (which are both amazing), but not Judas.

I can't believe that anyone releasing that album thought it was a good idea.
Wait, question: does anyone know what version this is?
I would love to know this! hahahaha
"Version" is too kind. More like desecration.
love it!!!!
Reminds me of Christmas potlucks at work when our drunk Israeli gofer would sing karaoke - but this is even worse.
lmao i thought this was a review of the movie's song xD
What recording was that?
... coz NBC is doing this...
This ain't half bad. Just the song is wildly difficult.
carving wood

That wasn’t awkward was it lol #PowerToSour
What version of the song is that??
I know this video is so old but I just found it and I love this song usually but what the heck is this version??
also Seth you CRACK me up
That's stage stars karaoke.
Whoa! Thanks!
Laughing so hard, I'm drooling....
Are we sure this was a recording session and not a live recording?
Does it matter? With that voice and complete inability to sing he'd be awful either way.
What version is this? It's rather ridiculous...;)
haha!
;;;;;;;'''''''''''''''''''' 2 Esdras 2: 31 -100 '''''''''''''''''''
OMG! That's a horrible version!
🤣🙄 JFC! quite easily the worst attempt at singing. Literally crucified it! 😂
yea that version sucks
