So glad I found this version. I know this song so well & far too many people try to imitate Ian Gillan's version & improv. I loved how this singer used his voice to greatest effect. The contrast between his rich clean sounds with the grit he's able to achieve really leant to adding an extra dimension of emotion & depth of feeling that truly conveyed the meaning & angst of the song. I loved it. Man you've some set of pipes on you. Bravo!

[@lenkazimmerova6839]

The best Jesus in the world. The best rock voice for the rock opera! He doesn't use falset at all. So emotional and these emotions are delivered straight to us, tears in my eyes and goose bumps, and blond hair just make him totally unique and incomparable. Thank you we love you :)

​@ciolake4136 kzbin.info/www/bejne/hoO9lIechreSjdUsi=gbmUpalm8eguCF6z When I saw this, I felt that it was meaningless to distinguish between superiors and inferiors among gethsemane. Because...it's the version Jesus would never do haha. That's why after listening to this grim rock version, I think I was able to focus more on the fact that all Gethsemanes had their own strengths. I hope you too can escape the pointless search for the best Gethsemane.

[@lenkazimmerova8491]

​@@user-fo2dm3ez6ywau the highs are very good. I like that colour of voice. It seems he uses falset in lows, kind of opera colour, isn't he? I still prefer hard rock version. I don't think it's pointless. If I didn't make a comment, you wouldn't share your favorite. I like comparing colours of voices. Thanks you shared 😉

Asi poprvé v životě je mi fuk, že to není originální jazyk.....vnímám jen Kamilův hlas a energii a pro mě je jeho verze je jiná, originální a naprosto TOP a navíc tento výkon i dokonce lepší dává pokaždé a pokaždé mám husinu.

[@pavelsmejkal4548]

Naprosto úžasné ! Vždycky mi při této písni v jeho podání naskakuje husí kůže. Kamil je extratřída !

[@janasvecova3116]

Pane Kamile, už hodinu přemýšlím, co napsat. Je to krásné, překrásmý hlas, nádherný výkon...Viděla jsem i představení, to bere dech, je to obrovský zážitek. Nehledě na to, že jsem si to tak 89x poslechla na kazetě😁. Co to je, zeptaly by se dnešní děti😁.

[@majkaj.1339]

Skvělá písnička ze skvělé desky, už je to pár let, co jsem celou desku poslouchala stále dokola a nikdy mě neomrzela a to díky bezvadnému interpretovi Kamilu Střihavkovi. Stále mě baví a fandím mu.

[@brotherjohn25]

Superb. I'm a big fan of Jesus Christ Superstar and hearing Gethsemane sang in another language simply amazing. This the heavy metal version of the song.

[@gitavalimaterdey267]

I have a feeling that this whole masterpiece was written for Kamil ❤ And I love love love Bara Basikova ❤ (Mary) and I love love love Dan Barta ❤ (Judas) I was like 17 and whenever I got money, we went to Prague to see Jesus Christ Superstar. There was nothing better to do with money... :) I saw it at least 6 times... :) Those were the days...🙂 Hi, brother John, have a nice holiday :)

[@martinam.1308]

for all the people wondering what this text sounds liek in English, i made a little transtlation: I only can say to you my wish, nothing more take away that cup of destruction full of bitterness and poverty from my hands. I am not the person I was before, in the beginning. I had your strength, but you went mute. Those three years in different countries seem like thirty to me. I'm losing my faith, I'm beaten by the tiredness. Try to require this from anyone. You know my lot (destiny) If I shall die, fulfill the law, do your will. Let them beat me, torture, kill, nail me to your threshold. God, why now, why just now I am afraid to see the goal, continue your way. I wanna know the truth, cruel and bad, not a lie. Why you want my, why you want my sacrifice. my father, I need to know the reason, I have to die, so i need to know the reason. I wanna know the truth, cruel and bad, not a lie. Why you want my, why you want my sacrifice. I, I will die now, I, I am dying! Is there a bigger meaning in me dying, than me living? Do you believe that with my own blood, I will return their memory? you're drowning me in doubt. Don't you hear my cry? If you want me to die, say why and what for! I'm dying I'm dying Watch as I die as I die! No.. what am I saying, do your will. I'm floating over a chasm after those years of bitter suffering. couted to every minute, I see the end. Oh, how cruel you are! No, what am I saying.. Do your will I'm bowing my face, descent from above, I'm drinking the drink from your cup. Nail my body quickly to a cross, before I say No out of fear

I fluctuate between this one and John Farnham's being the best Gethsemane versions ever committed to video. I do lean towards this one.

[@Rude_i_Wredne]

It's so weird. He's belting up to Eb5 if I heard correctly and sounds like he has control up there, yet he didn't go for the famous reinforced falsetto G5. Still, out of all the people who altered those high notes, he did it the best.

[@jakubk8139]

He is best czech singer we have, but he doesn't wish to be famous. He just sticks with musicals and keep it low. I agree he is phenomenal

[@petrsevcik5444]

Same as Ian Gillan invented g5, he invented this note and I can't decide what's better :D kzbin.info/www/bejne/jGiohpaon6lnqsU

[@lenkazimmerova6839]

Yes he is the only one in the world without using falsetto.

[@elenaondrckova2561]

Not a big fan of heavy metal singing, BUT...given the lyrics of the song, and the language, it actually works quite well to really serve up that anguish.

Což nikdo se mnou nevyčká, Petr, snad Jan Zbývá pár chvil do zítřka, zůstal jsem sám --- Já pouze smím ti říct Přání své, nic víc Odejmi tu číši zkázy Hořkosti a bídy plnou Z rukou mých, dál nejsem tím Kým byl jsem dřív Tam na počátku Já tvou sílu měl Tys však oněměl Ta tři léta v různých krajích Jako třicet se mi zdají Ztrácím víru únavou Jsem zbit, to zkus po někom chtít Ty znáš můj úděl Mám-li zemřít, naplň zákon Děj se vůle tvá Nech je být, mě Mučit zabít přibít na tvůj práh Bože proč teď, proč právě teď mám strach Zahlédnout cíl, po cestě tvé jít dál Pravdu chci znát, krutou i zlou, ne lež Proč oběť mou, proč oběť mou ty chceš? Znáš můj úděl Pochopí snad víc až zemřu Než dokud jsem žil Vrátí se pak mezi lidi To o čem jsem snil Bože proč teď, proč právě teď mám strach Zahlédnout cíl, po cestě tvé jít dál Pravdu chci znát, krutou i zlou, ne lež Proč oběť mou, proč oběť mou ty chceš? Bože proč teď, proč právě teď mám strach Zahlédnout cíl, po cestě tvé jít dál Pravdu chci znát, krutou i zlou, ne lež Proč oběť mou, proč oběť mou ty chceš? Otče můj, já musím znát důvod Otče můj, já musím znát důvod Zemřít mám, tak musím znát důvod Pravdu chci znát, krutou i zlou, ne lež Oběť mou, proč oběť mou ty chceš? Já, já teď zemřu Já, já umírám Má snad větší smysl zemřít, než abych dál žil Věříš, že jim vlastní krví paměť navrátím V nejistotách utápíš mě, neslyšíš můj pláč Chceš-li abych zemřel, tedy řekni proč a zač Já, já umírám Ó, já teď umírám Dívej se jak umírám Ó, jak umírám Ne, co říkám já Děj se vůle tvá Vznáším se jak nad propastí Po těch létech, trpkých strastí Spočítáno na minuty Konec vidím, ó jak jsi krutý Ne, co říkám já Děj se vůle tvá Skláním tvář svou, sestup z výše Piju nápoj ze tvé číše Rychle na kříž přibij tělo mé Než strachy řeknu ne

[@daniellehansen308]

I like emotional performances, but this guy (in my native tongue) is over the top. He is one very angry Jesus. I still prefer the one and only. The first. The best. Ian Gillan. But I will say that this guy is a kick-ass hard rock vocalist!! Not too bad on the eyes either!!

[@bohogal1]

Parts of it are good and the high notes sound like he's got mucus in his throat.

[@borisnahalka3027]

no. too much is not enough.

[@nickmandl]

he just whispers then gets loud. . .

[@PointlessSillyName]

I had a feeling he wouldn't make the G above high C that everyone else does, in varying degrees of competence. Ted being the guv'nor, obviously. And I was right. It's OK. I can't make it either. 😉

[@gypsyblack5994]

No he can't make the G5. Nevertheless, his performance is simply brilliant. Have you seen Michael K Lee perform this song? You might really like him... This is a very challenging song and I love how Kamil sings it even without hitting the high note.

[@davidace5444]

kamil doesnt use falsetto. hitting those high notes without falsetto or whistle is impossible

[@elenaondrckova2561]

Kamil Střihavka je velice dobrý zpěvák se specifickým hlasem, ale nějak mě na toto obsazení zcela nesedí... Pokud bych to bral trochu hlouběji, tak z poslechu zpěvu "Ježíše" bych měl cítit jemný, líbivý, uklidňující hlas, který ve mě vyvolá pocit uvolnění a v tomto případě i lítosti. Ovšem pan Střihavka má lehce chraplavý hlas a v těch výškách to tam dosti nelibě ze sebe tlačí:( Pro mě je best verze asi tato... kzbin.info/www/bejne/lYLSq4uObLOXqM0

[@Plaksa2004]

Mike England totally agree, trying to show off, no voice, no emotions - listen to John Farnham, Tim Minchin, our Russian , Gleb Matveychuk, Ian Gillan

[@thewolfband01]

How to destroy one of the most beautiful song of all time! Sorry but i didn't recognize the song! Yes you can and you have to make your own version but not change all the lines! For me the best is Steve Balsamo, he make he's own interpretation but not exactly as Gillian or Neeley, the music is respected, the "will" of the composer are respected. But here, there's not interpretation, no respect, only screaming.. Sorry but no, it's not "amazing"!

[@jakubdouda7843]

+Fabrice Pasche sorry but i actually wouldnt characterize singing the verse octave up as some drastic if even change, actually id say hes holding unto the line quite a lot, changing it maybe even less than by you mentioned singers

[@Setain7]

Steve Balsamo is unparalleled in his performance of Gethsemane. I am a fan of both Ian and Ted's versions but Steve takes it to a whole other level the man is incredible!!!!!
