  • Always Loved This Song 4 so Many years ,it is a treat 2 hear her sing this !Greatchacka69 Bless 2 all 2012

  • wow i love her voice!!!! i used to sing this song, now im more than happy to play it, just let me play it!!!!!

  • voice is very good, but playing is bad

  • Can't help it ... always cry at the end of this song ... :)

  • i want to hear mariah carey's version for this song.

  • yicky icky...

  • She didn't know how to love him, because he wasn't,"just a man'. Will the truth between mary Magedeline and Jesus Christ ever be told? She sings this with conviction and the voice of Love and Beauty for all. Hope~

  • This makes me want Jesus!  In a carnal way...

  • The words of this song are heart wrenching, a woman in torment, and she sings it like a Disney song. I don't get it.

  • getting that part in the play at school

    OMG i'm so exited

  • ¡SImplemente Maravilloso! 

  • To those who thinks she looks aweful, there is a new version of her. She lost a ton of weight and looks very attractive for her age. Check out her duet with Josh Groban on Youtube. She still can sing even now she is not a FAT LADY.

  • adoro esta cancion, aun cuando la escuche originalmente con Yvonne Elliman en la pelicula Jesucristo Super estrella, debo admitir que me ha encantado con la hermosa voz de Sarah, sin lugar a dudas una de las mejores interpretaciones que he escuchado

  • I think she has one of the most beautiful voices!

  • She never had any kind of love in her life at all... women at this time were only to care about home and children, with no voice at all... and Jesus shows her a different way of life, where people dont care about race, status or profession, or even your past sins... and for her (and everybody else) this is something so NEW that she barely can understand it... at the end of the movie, she gets it! ;-)

  • This girl has about as much soul as a mayonnaise sandwich. Yvonne Elliman owns this song.

  • @bologma When a singer or band does a cover of a song by another artist, it's a compliment to the original. This was nothing except a tribute to Elliman, and to Andrew Weber. I seriously doubt she was trying to compete with Elliman specially 40 years after the song came out on Broadway. I think the movie was '73. Guns-n-Roses did a whole album of covers. So did Metallica. KISS put out an album where they didn't sing one song. It was singers who wanted to record their music. It's a tribute.

  • @bologma I agree with you in one way - no one can beat Yvonne - her performance in the film is perfection. Sarah is OK too - her version of Dust in the Wind is awesome - however not enduring as Yvonne. Thanks.

  • Her appeal to people simply baffles me.

  • @abnormalsin

    why is that?

  • so cool

  • amazing singing

    

  • STUNNING SARAH , YOUR VOICE HAS NO COMPARE !

  • Distortion Plus!

  • An 'angel' maybe, but a tough, ambitious, assertive one without any doubt!  I despair at the pathetic arm waving, the wind machine and the other paraphernalia of what amounts to a Sarah promo vid. An amazing voice yes, especially at the start of the 'Should I scream and shout' section, but typically, she's pretty cold. This version is up tempo with fairly crude orchestral playing - as for that Jesus character in the video - Help!!! Try the concept album with Yvonne Elliman as Mary - pure magic!

  • @hallervonhallerstein Get your ears checked.

  • All these stupid religious comments are so ridiculous

  • I'm probably going to get dislike for this, but I think though Sarah is an excellent singer, she often doesn't put enough emotion into her singing. Take another listen to the line "I never thought I'd come to this..." It's sang, well, but without the right level of emotion, I think. Anyway, well done Sarah, an enjoyable listen, and I don't know what you've been taught, but I think if possible adding the right emotion couldn't hurt?

  • Jesus Christ is not a superstar..He is King of King's and Lord of Lord's!

  • @hanna23able that's why the title says superstar, and not just celebrity or sth like that...

  • The Lord delivered me from over 20 years of heroin addiction!! EVERYBODY had given me up for dead, but God and the Savior had different ones - praise His name!!

  • @barneyronnie I rejoice in your decision and wish you all the best in this new life. Keep the faith Christ is the answer just ignore the barbs and comments from the unbelievers pray for them to accept the gift of life eternal.

    Shalom, peace unto you and your house.

  • @barneyronnie That's great. But it has little to do with this video.

  • @barneyronnie ..Congrats

  • @barneyronnie pray for me my kid gets off crack :(

  • @barneyronnie I have given my kid up for dead...I know this sucks but out of fear I had to disconnect. Email me please what wud u do in my shoes?

  • @timcat100 I know how it is, I really do. You suffer at least as much as your child, and any form of help that you offer is probably just enabling your kid to keep doing the stuff. My advice is do NOT give any money to your kid, do not let him/her "crash" at your place. If your kid threatens you, then call the police. I'm a BIG believer that a serious junky needs a serious bottom to force them to a moment of clarity. I will pray for him/her and you should, too. Keep in touch.

  • @timcat100 I have some information found on the net that might help you regarding

    the abuse of drugs. You are welcome to send your e mail add so we can chat.

  • @lizacilliers My email is eyesinhere@hotmail.com I will embrace your offers since I predict and watch the news every night and expect my kid to make local headlines any day now. My town has just suffered a a quad murder suicide and a 77 year old senior kidnapping murder for drug money I speculate and about 10 other crimes simaler to what I expect to read about in the papers what my crack head kid is involved in. I currently have no idea where my son or granddaughter is :(

  • Sarah Brightman singing one of my favorite musicals ever. My life is complete. <3

  • @D33Clay How is me saying that this is awesome worthy of being fucked?

  • 'had so many men' -rather crude surely -even blasphemous? Othewise very good!

  • @comprehensiveboy It's a reference to a woman who was a prostitute who came and fell at Jesus' feet and from that point on she followed Him.

  • A nice voice of Ms. Brightman on the audio track undone by poor audio engineering. Buzzing caused by overdriving the audio sound system. Too bad; otherwise a nice video.

  • Over dramatic, about herself

  • You are so easy to love.very sensuous.I bet you have a great sense of humor kiddo.You must have for marrying Andrew instead of me.

  • I don´t believe in god but sarah is a voice ...congratulations !!!

  • THIS SONG IS ABOUT MARY MAGDELENE TALKING ABOUT JESUS NOT A ROMANTIC LOVE SONG !

  • She sings so... beuatiful

  • Kinda tough picturing Magdelena dressed as a Valkrie.

  • Remember when you could watch a video without commercial?

    Remember when music videos were uploaded by user and not VEVO

    Remember when all the info was to the right of the video?

    Remember you could rate a video 1-5 stars?

    Remember the famous yellow subscribe button?

    Remember when the users controlled the site and not corporations?

    WE MISS THE OLD YOUTUBE!

    Post this in every video and lets start a youtube revolution!

    Thumbs up to keep at the top of the page!

  • @thethefunnyone Amen to that!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • In Honor of My Lord & Savior. <3

    Exodus 14:14

    The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still." <3

  • bellissimo

  • there IS a God  Sarah is an angel

  • Wow....uh......I kind of find I fancy her. Is that wrong? LOL

  • Nice theatrical performance; but, it is and always will be Ellimans's tune from then to end of time!

  • Almost doesn't sound like her. She must have been young when she did this.

  • Dedicada para ti cariño, la madre de mis hijos, aunque aun no lo seas, aunque aun no lo hayas decidido, al menos a mis ojos y corazón ya lo eres, te amo en silencio, y con un grito que se escucha en todo el universo, eres mi estrella que ilumina mi camino coneja. The world it´s not tough enough to defeat my love 4 U.

  • ciaoo ho un 1000 lp 33 giri e dischi vari generi... scarica la lista....o richiedila zanonferdinando@virgilio.it

  • dang, imagine the burden the burden the guy that played jesus must have felt. I mean HE HAS TO BE JESUS!!!!

    pressure much?

  • Sarah is Awesome~!~!~!~!~

  • nice song.i love it so much

    

  • So beautiful!!!!!!!!!

  • By the way our God, and when I say "our" I mean as in "our european cultures" is a hebrew God and this god is ALWAYS AND FOREVER male! So stop putting he/she it's always HE! Nerds! And Sarah is divine like always! Praise Her!

  • Betting on whether God exists or not is often called Pascal's Wager.The Eternal Hell bit was created by Rome and has no reality at all in GOD's scheme except as a test. Jesus didn't teach anything close to that at all. GOD created this Earth school for SOULS to work out their immaturities thru many lifetimes and develop into Towers of Love and Strength. All SOULS will oneday graduate to the HIGHER WORLDS and know the greatest FREEDOM, CREATIVITY, LOVE and JOY which simply goes beyond telling.

  • @moranplano COUNT ME IN. THAT IS THE GOD OF MY BELIEF.

  • @bonjie2011 Then, you might want to look into the teachings of ECKANKAR, a modern day path of Mysticism.

  • In fact, the role ALW wrote for Sarah Brightman was Christine from 'Phantom of the Opera'

  • In fact, the role ALW wrote for Sarah Brightman was Christine from 'Phantom of the Opera'

  • Great voice, great song, bad acting, i think it was the directors fault though the guys on here made it easyer for her not to hvae to express things so much. I loved her voice though.

  • ---- Its the equivilant of saying that there is an invisible, scentless, onipresent, floating dinosaur in my basement, who makes waffles. Theres really no point, because I can't provide physica evidence.

  • And, as for the god hypothesis itself, what substantial basis is there for making such a claim, other than it makes you feel good and a book says so? What, in the world, makes you think there's a loving, caring, almighty being somewhere, looking at people, deciding whether they deserve to live in heaven or hell after death? Or, even, a god that doesn't care? All you can really do is debunk claims against it; but what backs it up? ---

  • Simply beautiful :) ♥

  • Paldies, skaista dziesma! Thank you, a very nice song! Latvia, Riga.

  • For all who say this song is wrong for her ..consult with her ex-husband.....andrew loyd webber...i think youll find he wrote this song for her (in the role of mary).

    I have to agree tho i prefer Yvonne's voice and style for this song.

  • @1013shelton As the song was written in the 1970, and Webber married Brightman in 1984, I very much doubt he wrote it FOR her. Brightman was born in 1960, so was 10 years old when he wrote it !

  • I agree , respect to Sarah Brightman but Yvonne Elliman was BETTER !

  • wow this is beautiful this one of the most beautiful songs i have ever heared.

  • wow,,,pure genius,,,words cant describe Sarah's beautiful ice and awesome performance…absolutely gorgeous in every way

  • no one can sing this song but Yvonne Elliman

  • oh common... she is totally wrong for this song. she makes it sound like a x-mass carol.

  • is everyone able to watch this video? or any others? I can't get any youtube videos to play...

  • I know this song is about her falling romantically in love with him, but I interpret it as her falling spiritualy in love.

  • @NinjaMusicFreak I think he's so charismatic she thinks she's romantically in love, but when she finds out who he is, the depths of his soul, what Jesus truly is, she realizes the love is of a much deeper, truly spiritual nature.

  • @Mirani2 That's how I love everyone I love... :)

    <3

  • @NinjaMusicFreak I think she means in all ways--she doesn't know how--spirit, body, heart, mind. Tis a song of confused adoration<3!

    <3.

  • @NinjaMusicFreak Huh? This is from Jesus Christ Superstar. Mary Madelene trying to understand. Nothing to do with romantic love!

  • @NinjaMusicFreak not a bad interpretation ! one of my favorite songs ever...I was listening to JCSuperStar when I was ....11? what a song. enjoy!!

  • @NinjaMusicFreak Yoh, Well said! that makes sense

  • @soultraveler777

    Atheism is not at all like a religion because disbelief without evidence is not the same thing as belief without evidence. Atheism is no more a religion than disbelieving that the moon is made of cheese is sufficient to be a religion!

    Besides you're an atheist too--- you're an atheist with respect to all other religions and their 'deities' except your own, right? . So you know what that feels like to disbelieve in some other person's deity.

  • sigh I'm just going to ignore this religious argument going on below me because it's annoying. Lets face it, no one can prove there is or isn't a god upstairs until we're pushing daisies so lets focus on what's importaint: This song is beautiful, she's beautiful and we can all relate to a woman falling in love with a man who you're convinced is unusual and amazing. Is it bad this song can reduce me to tears?

  • her voice is perfect....

  • Love this one! :)

  • I grew up with the classic album of the early 70s, with Ian, Yvonne and original crew-two album set with full libretto. The concept was, at first, just an album, with JC superstar as a single. it's popularity is enduring as nearly 50 years later we still listen to it. As to a contest over who sings it 'better' - all who professionally sing this tune give it their personal interpretation neither right or wrong. For me, Yvonne's is the one i will always remember.

  • Wonderful, just wonderful. I like Ms Brightman.'s voice, the song's melody and lyrics, and the video as well. And with this song, Sarah doesnknow how to love Him (Jesus, our Savior)

  • Why are so many using this video as a forum to preach? This is a song about someone falling romantically in love with Jesus. It is one of the most tender songs I have ever heard. And Sarah is one of the greatest souls I have ever encountered. Now that is an appropiate comment.  That preaching is out of place here.

  • @soultraveler777 Your comment has little to do with this video.

  • I just don't understand why non believers are so angry at Christians. Get over it already. If you don't believe then so be it. Just get a life and quit worrying about what others are doing.

  • @MissAnnie1000 they should do the same :)

    Religions cause most of the conflicts in the world.

    Peace to all mankind except those of other religions.

    But i agree with you about quit worrying what others are doing, except when it directly impacts you and your freedom.

  • She is the BEST soprano ever

  • You can't love Him if you don't know Him. You can't know Him by the bible. You can only know Him by the Holy Ghost.

  • Ummm, currently biblical thinking is that Mary Magdalene wasn't actually a prostitute, so that would NOT be the kind of clothing she wore.

  • She's so talented, but I just can;t get over the freak face she puts on when she sings.

  • at the risk of sounding ignorant, i've never heard of her but wow...i've been deprived.

  • DO NOT WATCH OR LISTEN IF YOU HAVE DIABETES

    --- the sugar might be too much for you.

    Sarah is so good at singing a "nice little song" as if it were Grand Opera

  • I think this is very close to what Mary Magdeline would have looked like. Kind of "garish" clothing with lots of jewelry, long hair, etc. And probably a lot of what would be have been going through her mind at the time as well!! Brillant song by Webber and the voice of Sarah Brightman- tops.

  • zo mooi ......

  • Ms Brightman, your singing moves me to get closer to Him. Yes, I love Him so.

  • Thank You Sarah.....Jesus Christ Superstar....So are You!!!

  • what's up with the weird dancing??

  • The singing was great, but the audio was bad, as though amps were being overdriven with treble.

  • (and this is exactly the Original version there) BTW This is not the Original Jesus either. lol

  • Comment removed

  • What is everyone saying about "the original"? This movie clip? Sarah Brightman Is the original; sings it on the JCS album. On mine anyway

  • Sarah Brightman has an incredibly beautiful voice, and as much as I love her, I don't think she suits the song well. This song needs to have intense emotion behind it, and she just doesn't bring it; not to this version, at least.

  • Jesus Christ, what a voice. Er, oops.

  • Sulamita was a virgin brunete!

  • Hmmm,

    1:15-1:27 is totally Depeche Mode sounding.

    -H-

  • its heathcliffe its the brooding mr rochester its the garden scene its ...

  • i really love sarah brightman's version of this song

  • Sarha looks so gothic vampirish in this.

  • @flyingscience Who cares, the colour scheme is beautiful and passionate! Red symbolizes passion and true love and the lighting makes her seem like a goddess! :3

  • @flyingscience Thats nothing new, I usually listen to her sing and not see her perform, I tried it to my disappointment, Hervoice though is haunting and beautiful.

  • I have heard someone saying:

    if you believe in God and God does not exist you have lost nothing, but if God does exists and you did not believe you have lost everything.

    Beautiful voice and beautiful song.

  • @aatteeii Thats called pascals wager it fails horribly on every level .Many videos on that subject -look them up .You are forgetting your religion is 1 out of 10K that humans invented .You are taking the toture threats to non members as being accurate without factoring in a corupt clergy resorting to psychological terrorism as a tool to coerce conversions making God a Mafia Boss mentality (join or else ) .Yes its just that evil but you never recognised it .

  • @flyingscience is it fun to be so unhappy? maybe i should try arrogance and a general sense of superiority on for size and i can be unhappy just like you!!

    and youre confusing faith with the church!

  • @daulkner Critiquing the various evils of organized religion doesnt mean I'm unhappy . Thats an incorrect assumption . Analysing pascals wage doesnt make anyone unhappy just informed . Take a few minutes time and watch a few videos on any religious subject youve never bothered to critique before .Education changes people for the better . I'm all for it .

  • @aatteeii , so very true.

  • @aatteeii: I have heard similar logic used to justify blind faith in every concept for which there is no evidence or proof. Personally, I pray each day that the Flying Spaghetti Monster will bless me with fettucini arrabiata with veggie meatballs. Hasn't happened yet, unless I pay for it or make it myself. Fortunately, rather than choose to merely pray for what I want, I am happy to work for it.

  • @mitchlawmd i believe this is one of the most genious reply's i have seen on youtube so far.. x)

  • @mitchlawmd Unoriginal snob.

  • @aatteeii If God does exist and you do not believe, you should still be doing what's right and will not lose everything if God is actually just.

  • @aatteeii

    yes, but god forgives everything... so... let's have fun!!!!

  • God love to have fun, and he don´t want to forgives fun, he promotes it, but not what you think is fun, that he calls it physical gratification, greed, and extravagant lifestyles, does not comes from the Father. 1Jn 2:16

  • @aatteeii Technically you have lost everything if God doesn't exist, your whole meaning of life and all. You have lost nothing if you are agnostic.

  • If you believe in god and god does not exist you have lost nothing. Exept your independence and the fact that you control your life and no one else. Religion stops progress and makes people stop questioning - that is truly dangerous.

  • @aatteeii She's the best singer EVER, and this song, made for the play JC Superstar is very apropriate for the story. Although I don't believe that Jesus had any kind of affair with Mary Magdalena, or any other woman, it is natural that a woman could feel a great passion for a so charishtmatic person, as Jesus certainly was in person, as He is still, in Spirit. I know cases of christian young females who fell in love for some churchmen (fathers and ministers), and boys for lady teachers.

  • @aatteeii Wrong: if you believe in God, and god doesn't exist, you have been devoting your life to a false goal, and your whole purpose for being here is a sham. If you don't believe in god, and you live a worthy life despite the lack of a hairy thunderer to keep you in line, you are all the more worthy, and if god does exist, he cannot help but transcend the petty egotism of the solipsistic christian faith, and will reward you for your good grace and kindnesses towards his creation and fellows

  • @aatteeii Thats Pascals wager .Please watch a few of the many videos on the subject . Pascal was a mathmatician but he failed horribly at making this wager acurate . Your faith would be 1 out of 10 thousand to be corect not (50/50) . The chances of being in the right Christian denomination are 1 in 3000+ minimum . The chances that the right gospel texsts where chosen is slim . The chance that Jesus's words are actualy his are less than 20% say biblical scholars .

  • @aatteeii Christianity took centuries to develop .The gospels where not made by actual eyewitnesses and they where written decades later .Try to write down accurately what your best friend said in a class you didn't attend 30 years later .Good luck ! Do you know of the dogma wars ? Monotheist Christians where hunted tortured and killed for not being Trinitarians . Look up the video "evolution of the afterlife " to see its theological evolution .You'll loose sleep .

  • @aatteeii

    If there's a God, then Sarah is an angel!!!

  • @DocDLH

    No doubt, she is. :)

  • @DocDLH  There is a God. And Sarah is an angel.

  • That why you don't know her... she is very far to be an angel. LOL

  • @aatteeii

    That is not entirely true. You have given your lifetime to a game of "let's pretend" when you could have found the courage to live with a passionate, uncompromised commitment to the truth.

    What else is there?

    In the end, isn't that what God is all about anyway?

  • @aatteeii I heard someone saying the same thing. And I answered:

    I do believe in god. But I don't like him, and I'm getting along without him anyways. Everybody ask themselves at some point, if god exists. But do they ask what difference it makes? No. Even if there is a god - we're living in our world, and it doesn't make any difference for us if he's there or not - because things are what they are. I think it's hard to learn independence from god, but he's meaningless.

  • @aatteeii I love that so much thanks Its just a simple truth that changes lives.

  • @aatteeii It's known as Pascal's Wager

  • @aatteeii

    Pascal's gambit.

  • @aatteeii The same goes if you believe in the wrong god.... Maybe the Muslim god is the right one. And, even so, its still simply preposterous. That the most loving, forgiving, all powerful diety in the universe would send you to to eternal suffering after death if you don't acknowledge his existence, or sleep with someone before you're married. Might as well say that you should wear knight-armor every day to protect from meteorites....

  • @aatteeii ,, as long as Ur a good person, and do what s right, if there is a god, why would he hold anything aginst U. Just do unto others as u want them 2 do 2 U. .... very simple.

  • @aatteeii that's why i'm so glad that he/she doesn't exist

  • @aatteeii

    if you believe in God and God does not exist you have lost all of that time and energy you spent during your short time on earth that you could have been helping other people instead of selfishly trying to secure your place with a non-existent entity, but if God does exists and you did not believe you have lost nothing because if it is unwilling to forgive your mortal transgressions then why would you want to spend eternity with that.

  • @aatteeii thats true.... God Bless you....

  • @aatteeii in that way of saying it indeed sounds rational to believe. though it is a false argument, if you aint clever enough to find out why yourself, you might just keep believing because you wouldnt understand anyways, if you do get it, then why the heck are you still believing?

    i wonder who you get that from, it sounds like a great argument at the first look. or that person is very clever to mislead ppl, or the person sucks at thinking rational and is prejudiced.

  • I don't know which I like better, Sarah's version or the original...

  • What a voice - she is unmatched

  • @luvsb1 I agree ... totally !!!

  • she is a great singer but emma shapplin is better

  • BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­O!!!

  • Brilliant!!

  • aaaaa beutiful voice... i love it...

  • nice song....good singer.....wonderful muzik and melodies......

  • My God she is so lovely!!!!! Amazing voice!

  • i never thoughtttttt it'd cooome to thisssssssssss

    SO GOOD

  • She's so beautiful.

    I get goosebumps everytime.

    :)
