I love how Mel's all dolled up, Ben's got a fancy suit and Tim's just wearing a jumper and skinny jeans. I guess they're just grateful he turned up in shoes! :p
you don't need to dress to the nines to sing and have an amazing voice. tim gives me the shivers when he sings. he hits the high pitches as judas like ted neeley did as jesus.
@@KittenLynn very well said. I feel like he sings with more passion than Mel aswell. Love him but never thought I'd ever see him play Judas after some of his songs 😂

@@annashaw6538 It seems…extremely apposite and appropriate to me: for a skeptic like Minchin to play the part of someone who lauds the genuine good in Jesus, but curses and laments the myth and bullshit and aggrandizement that both tarnishes the human good and leads inevitably to his painful death. What more proper role could one imagine?
this is SOLID proof that they didn’t need to put that awful autotune on the recorded performance. all three of them sound AMAZING! there was no need for autotune and i honestly have no idea why the producers added it
@@utoobah yeah, Tim absolutely never needed autotune, in the tour of J.C.Superstar they did put autotune over the voices for the recording though. It's not that recognizable, but at one or two moments of the DvD you can clearly hear it.
Big fan of this musical for almost 40 years. Lifelong atheist and I still love it because it rocks! I can't wait to see the full performance when it gets released and I am thrilled that Tim Minchin is one of the lead roles!
Me too. Atheist but love everything about this. I even cry during Gethsemane because Jesus reflects the defeated feeling when we have no choice but to give up. Very moving.
Me three. Atheist, but the songs and the performances (this one, but also the one from the 70's) are so moving and brings me to tears every time. And yes, Tim Minchin is absolutely fantastic. I knew he could sing, but this is another level.
Jesus Christ Superstar is not a play. It is a rock opera. It is not a satire. It is a modern take on the Gospel, presenting the Biblical characters as real people and Jesus strongly showing his human side. Plus the singing is great. The score requires the vocal abilities shown by all three singers.
It's not satire? You sure? Pretty sure they didn't have tanks in first century Judea. Also, while on the topic of satire, you listen to the song "superstar" and you tell me that it isn't dripping with satire from the start.
@@rhdrbob “Superstar” is definitely satirical, but then you have songs like this one, Heaven on Their Minds, Pilate’s Dream, Trial Before Pilate, and Gethsemane to remind you that it is still taken very seriously at points- but where the modern commentary occasionally comes in is when some satire does
I was too young to see the arena tour in Australia and my mother and older brother went to see it (in the front row, I might add!) and apparently Tim was nothing less than freaking PHENOMENAL... people need to keep some opinions to themselves sometimes, just because he's not their favourite Judas, doesn't mean they get to shit talk him for everyone else... But you are absolutely right, he places himself into every role and undeniably COMMITS, truly a talented man.
Congrats for Melanie. Such a great voice, well worked, great breathing support, pitch perfect, beautiful, talentes and nice woman. Great for her, doing what she really studied for at college: stage singing/acting
I saw JCS back in ' 75 during the Sydney season, with Trevor White as Jesus and Jon English as Judas. We went as a excursion for the school choir. It was the first time I had ever been to a "real" theatre to see a live show. We had seats in groups of 2, 3 or 4, scattered throughout the theatre, as they couldn't get us a block of seats, I was lucky enough to be seated centre-front-row, next to our music teacher. It was the most phenomenal thing I had ever seen. I was 13 years old...
This song is best in the context of the play! I certainly want to see this in full costume, it appears that verses were skipped over in order to fill the convenient air time. I am so-oooo excited to find out that there is another generational incarnation of this rock opera...and I just found out today! My fantasy is to be able to audition for a part in this. Ive been singing the songs in my car here in the states.... frankincense and myrhh spice...this Jesus is cool!
After watching Superstar I have fallen in love with this musical. I can't wait to see this maybe later this year. Lord Llyod Webber has picked a fantastic cast.
I saw the movie of Jesus Christ Superstar with Tim, Mel and Ben. It was amazing! Tim's voice was by far the best but Ben was really raw with emotion. Mel was really good as well.
People hating on Tim Minchin need to back off, listen to his other songs he is amazing. Just because his voice sounds nasal in one song doesn't mean his voice is like that all the time! The nasal sound could also be the mic, different mics sound different on different people. He may also have a cold and can't help the nasal sound, you don't know the reasons for the nasal sound. Also an atheist is perfect for the role of Judas. I love Tim Minchin his work is amazing I especially loved him in this musical! Rant over guys
Gemma Leighton Well, I watched a few different stagings and I still think that Jarome Pradon is the best Judas I've seen so far (I don't compare it with the original because no one will be able to compete with that^^). But it's a matter of taste :)
I lost count of the times that it I've sene this video. But I love it so much. Melanie looks absolutely beautiful and they are all so great. Only Tim's face doesn't look complete without they eyeliner here, haha.
I saw this in Melbourne and i honestly thought it was amazing!! I have grown up watching all the older versions and this was probably my favorite one. Everyone has all their own opinions but i loved it and even cried!!
Agreed. One of Webber and Rice's best. This really makes you feel for Judas in my opinion. Have not seen it in years and can still sing the majority of the words.
They were all fabulous, i'm sure they'll be better performing in the story and stuff, i just love Tim more than anything, so proud of him. Very excited for seeing it in 12 days!
I watched a version of this show in a small theatre when I was at school as a teen. I have to admit I don’t remembered the show at all, but watching clips of it with such big stars in it gives me a different feel to it all! It’s a shame that I have missed it when it came online few months ago.
don't talk if you don't know, she sounds exactly the same as in the albums, she's no need for autotune, she has always been named the talented one, the one who can sing and so on... and she writes everything, 6 solo albums on her shoulders, 5 of them written by her (the last one is an album of covers from musical). And please, watch her solo performances, her live dvd's, and come here and tell again she can't sing. People who speaks under ignorance end up looking so stupid.
Brilliant! Wish Tim had more to sing though haha, he's amazing! Wish they'd talked to him a bit more in the interview too, but I suppose it's an improvement on last time... Absolutely cannot WAIT for the tour! Thanks for uploading this, I love it :)
as you can see tim isn't feeling okay, perhaps a cold? don't judge someone because you heard one thing that is not perfect! nobody is perfect! would you sound better when you have to perform while struggling with a cold?
Anyone that said any of them didn’t sound good is just a matter of taste cuz they all sound great but Tim and mel definitely have voices that always everyone cup of tea.

Tim has never been and never needed autotuning, he’s so talented. Mel is so so so underrated, she’s so perfect

@thiccman420 It took the edge of Tim and the entire bottom half of the Bass of Caiaphas.
Tim... what a beauty of a man.
Victoria Rae 😁😁 I knowwww
He's a beautiful, hot mess 👌
He is awesome I agree

Except tim
And it was written by Andrew Lloyd Webber.
I agree wholeheartedly

I love how they are in character for the entire song. The chemistry is amazing.
Eeeeh!! Tim Minchin just steals my attention in every song! He’s so amazing and his voice is unique!! He is by far my favorite Judas ever!!!
This was the best cast ever. Would love to see it again .
This Mary Magdalene is awesome. How I love her phrasing. Her word "fine" is sooo fine.
Tim’s high notes are just beyond words. So talented
Seen the play live in Australia. Tim was nothing less than FUCKING AMAZING ! Become a fan of his after seeing him live. So very talented.

It's coming to my town I'm going on Saturday
Jon Stevens
I saw it here in Australia as well and I agree. Tim was brilliant 😀
Mel is so underrated in th Uk
She is a real talent
melc is so not underatted in the UK she is AMAMZING LITRELLY
Tim's voice was auto-tuned for the recording and he wasn't happy about it. The character didn't need it. As for Mel C. She is fantastic.
Congrats for Melanie. Such a great voice, well worked, great breathing support, pitch perfect, beautiful, talentes and nice woman. Great for her, doing what she really studied for at college: stage singing/acting

Tim Minchin was wonderfully well chosen! Melanie c is fabulous! I wanted to be able to watch this spectacle up close!
Brilliant song and Mel C's voice is haunting
After watching Superstar I have fallen in love with this musical. I can't wait to see this maybe later this year. Lord Llyod Webber has picked a fantastic cast.
i dont understand why people are hating on this so much, i thought it was amazing...
Plnkvfloy
I watched the film 100,000,000 times and i just watched this one once trust me it is amazing !!!
love this version. All 3 have fantastic voices
I saw the movie of Jesus Christ Superstar with Tim, Mel and Ben. It was amazing! Tim's voice was by far the best but Ben was really raw with emotion. Mel was really good as well.
I love how Tim gets in character the moment he cracks his shoulders... "ok, here we go"... his gaze...
mel has such a unique singing voice ...
Omg their voices are amazing! Melanie’s voice is perfect for her character, her voice is sweet and original at once; unique 👑🤩👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

It's not about Minchin being bad in general (he really has some good songs) it's about Michin being bad for this role.
But he is really good in this role as well. It just annoys me how people judge him by one song, when anything could be wrong!
Gemma Leighton Well, I watched a few different stagings and I still think that Jarome Pradon is the best Judas I've seen so far (I don't compare it with the original because no one will be able to compete with that^^). But it's a matter of taste :)
Gemma Leighton Exactly, NOSE POWER! ;)
+Gemma Leighton Yes, Tim is very talented, but this role is not for him
A very interesting combination of singers together.
It’s awesome! They are all so good. Anyone who thinks they can sing those parts better, the RUclips stage is yours!
I really love Tim!! I watched this musical in netflix like ten times and he is the best! All the cast is awesome and this is my favorite song.
This is on Netflix?!
Gemma Leighton well, I'm in Mexico, IDK if Netflix is totally different in other countries.
+Sherry Holmes Yeah it's not on Netflix in England I checked after I put that comment. I don't know why I'm bothered as I have it on DVD anyway 😂
I lost count of the times that it I've sene this video. But I love it so much.

Agreed. One of Webber and Rice's best. This really makes you feel for Judas in my opinion. Have not seen it in years and can still sing the majority of the words.
I forgot to add in there I did not like that they kind of imply something between Mary Magdaleen and Jesus. Mary is not a prostitute either.
This is brilliant. It's the first time I've ever heard this. Mel is so good. Such a surprise
Tim is amazing, this wasn't his best performance but still wonderful
In this video they may not sound 100% but on stage they’re AMAZING
They were both better live in Brisbane (Jesus was a different guy)
Three fantastic vocal performances. Just goes to show what a superb piece of music JCS really is, stunning music.
I think Tim is being being brave by pushing through his illness
His illness of not being able to sing Judas in JCS?
Uisce Preston no he was ill but he is an outstanding singer and 100% perfect for the role of Judas
Uisce Preston ruclips.net/video/R3EGccL6jNA/видео.html
seen JCS 7 times and this is still my fave cast, all 3 are superb x
This defines us. it should be on a rocket, going, to beyond the stars for the universe.
Beautiful voices ❤
They were all fabulous, i'm sure they'll be better performing in the story and stuff, i just love Tim more than anything, so proud of him. Very excited for seeing it in 12 days!
Beautiful, Mel looks and sounds fantastic!
I love them all. So excited
This sounded so much better in the arena yesterday, these three were amazing :)
Melanie is amazing, what a wonderful woman dedicated so much to music!!
This is so much better than the recording on my god, I wish I could have seen this live
I really love Ben as Jesus

It's cool seeing them sing this as themselves! Tho their costumes are sooooo good.
saw this 3 days ago in wembly arena and loved every second of it wish it could stay with me forever......the dvd shall be mine
Mel has a great voice 🎉
It's funny how everyones dressed all nice and then there's Tim.

I'm so with Judas on this one
They are fantastic!
I absolutely love this musical

There need a music cd of this version
Saw this in Manchester last night. Incredible.

I love this rockopera and these three are so good
as you can see tim isn't feeling okay, perhaps a cold? don't judge someone because you heard one thing that is not perfect! nobody is perfect! would you sound better when you have to perform while struggling with a cold?
This is exactly what I've been saying, Tim gets ill quite often so he could have a cold. He is such an amazing singer
xxeveryday1 he was ill when they filmed this
I love Tim , Melanie and ben
Anyone that said any of them didn’t sound good is just a matter of taste cuz they all sound great but Tim and mel definitely have voices that always everyone cup of tea.

Such a good singer xxxxx
I love all of them but my favourite part is how Ben and Melanie are both formal while Tim looks like he rolled outta bed to sing this lmao
I'm a full-on-atheist. Still, I love Jesus Christ Superstar! Go figure, Aye.
love Ben and Tim; give me Yvonne Elliman any time. Loved the actual live show video
Love his voice.
