Nobody does this better then Carl Anderson, RIP.

[@danieljames6230]

You are 100% right someone tried to tell me one of the later versions was better. Carl Had a voice that could never be touched!

[@qcislander]

Murray Head in the first Broadway cast did a better job by my lights... but that's just opinion, and this is (for a singer) a really big role and *both* of them were *incredible*.

[@danieljames6230]

@@qcislander No chance head does not have the control anderson does. or upper ranges as well. Head is good anderson is GREAT

[@TitanicHorseRacingLover]

Nope. Carl's the man.

[@chipwillis]

Had the chance to see Carl play Judas in 77 or 8 and again in the 90s a couple times. Always amazing and thankful.

The more I listen to you the more sick I become !!!

[@AnimalisMD]

I got to see Carl and Ted Neeley (Jesus in the movie) do JCS on stage- front row center... Even 20 some years after the movie they were both awesome!!!❤❤

[@DavidHenricks]

I could watch this 100 times. I actually have.

[@susanbuchser-lochocki20]

I'm not even a believer anymore and I love it... it's a great story it's a sad story.. it's also very timely right now

[@danieledugre1837]

Carl was amazing. No other singer came close to such perfection!

Only the top musical ever made.....and I'm not even religious......Vocals unsurpassed.

Carl was an AMAZING vocalist! My mom had the soundtrack from jcst on lp back in the 80's and I almost wore it out

[@jasonpaz]

I went to Cathiolic school and our nun loved this musical and forced us to watch this in the 90s. I thought it was so lame but today...i really do appreciate it. We partcularly thought this scene was hilarious

[@MrSilva960]

Harmony never be a lame, rock & blues never die !

[@maggiew.2809]

Great story. I went to Catholic School but before you. I doubt we would have seen this. I think she was probably trying make the story more contemporary and real. Good on her.

[@MsDana-mo9fp]

Went to Catholic Schools, too! Was in 5th Grade when Godspell came out & everyone thought it was a joke, & then Jesus Christ Super Star came out & then people thought about how wonderful it was!

[@Caine7ify]

What sells the song is when Carl looks around when he sings “such a strange land”, as if he’s actually there.

[@coralinebaksteen9791]

Just thinking the same. Great singer/actor RIP.

[@mokshababe]

They did film in Israel

[@kd8opi]

He is there.

[@deansusec8745]

dude, they WERE in Israel

[@jungleboots]

Dude, this was a looong time before CGI. They WERE there. Smh.

[@jackierosas9593]

Newer film adaptations of musicals really must take note of this film. The camera is so alive and intimate but then we get these grand sweeping shots of the set then cut to Jesus. It's amazing.

[@jeanrocque-rr4ec]

This musical (at the time) made the teens and twenties re-think the whole concept of the dull, repeative stories we heard Sunday in & Sunday out. It brought it into focus for us. That can't be a bad thing!!!!

[@matthewkuchinski1769]

After seeing this movie for the first time in its complete form, I can say without doubt that this has become one of my favorite movies!

[@burnicevereide2116]

The first time I saw it it was the very first time they had aired on television. This will forever be the image of Jesus that I know him to be.. I was eight when they made this 50 years later it's still chokes me

[@williamglenn777]

We listen to this at the late night picture show…. “If you’d come today you could have reached a whole nation…” At the late night double feature picture show 👁️ 💻 👁️ Love (more), The Back Row

[@Teenibash1969]

Just saw this today at the Kings Theatre in Glasgow. Oh my gosh, left me speechless 😮

[@cathyrainey6176]

Years ago I made my son watch this. He now has my album and loves the music.

[@lyleguydelkon3071]

The movie was filmed in Isreal in 1973. Those are Israeli soldiers guarding them

[@burnicevereide2116]

Greatest rock opera ever made

[@Lil_legend217]

[@karenmenze6754]

This was a brilliantly done masterpiece throughout. The dancers are also extraordinary in every scene. The symbology- sometimes quietly sometimes loudly- bringing emotion and insight was phenomenal.

[@Estr4nged90]

best musical ever, im back few minutes ago from sistina theater in rome. I saw this show live almost 25 times and i know people who saw it 230 times, These year there isnt ted neeley for the first time. jesus was lorenzo licitra and I cried during Gethsemane, an amazing voice

This movie is a tradition on the maternal side of my family. My Mom showed this to my brother and I (I loved it, he didn't). My Mom and her 3 sisters know the movie and the soundtrack. My cousin Heather and I love this movie, and plan to show it to our kids (she has 5 girls, I have a daughter and son).

[@curlyhum1276]

more then anything the song is mocking Jesus with all the crock wiggling and blaspheme! Carl's singing is like no other!

[@pgs1796]

With respect I think you are missing the point. Judas here is the 'modern' audience's POV saying the sort of things that must have occurred to them many times when hearing Christ's story and thinking why there, why then?
