this is an extreamly good emotional interpretation of the song, considering his first language isn't english. it takes a lot of talent to be able to perform a song as emotional as this in a language that is completely differant from the one you've grown up speaking
THIS IS THE SOUNDTRACK TO THE REVOLUTION......YOU AND I AND ALL THESE OTHER PEOPLE ARE ALOT IN COMMON AND WE WILL STICK TOGETHER BECAUSE WE ARE THE RESISTANCE.. COME LISTEN!!
All those stupid cock suckers who think it's freaky for an Asian guy to sing this kind of song had better get used to listening to Asian male singers from now on. There are lot of talented male singers in Asia. Some of these guys are second to none in their ability to sing all kinds of songs.
Amazing voice! We are all created equal by GOD so there is no need to compare by race when it comes to talent....this is not freaky but rather AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!

Who is he? He sings in different style and feeling,really,really good for a difficult emotional song. That's what I learned at my music school,clear articulate,vocal control, and used your own feeling and style to give soul of the song. Well,he made it. Pretty good.
@DumbHonkie1 I was just making compliments to this amazing singer (eve if I'm a huge fan of Neeley), and in a educated way...things that YOU probably don't know...befoure you open your mouth to let out such a quantity of garbage...do you know Im Tae's high?? No? Well...especially for what concern bein a soprano or middle soprano, the high has much to do with timbric peculiarity...but why should I speak to you? You're only able to offend. Bravo to Tae, again...very talented!

@LesfleursdumalSofia Do you call your first comment as a compliment to Im? You go back there, read the comment one more time. I think the comment was very patronizing and sarcastic. You don't even know how to spell his name properly. You don't call him Im Tae or Tae, If you want to use his name, then try Im Tae Kyung or Tae Kyung or Im. Btw you sound like a sissy whiny fag.
@DumbHonkie1 Hahahhaah, poor you, you don'y understand and still you agress the others!!Nothing to say...your comment says it all about you...so: NO COMMENT, it's a loss of time.....your time's UP. Click
@LesfleursdumalSofia Obviously you are an idiot who can not compose a simple sentence without making typos and grammatical errors, That speaks volumes about you.
for a usual opera, this would do. this one's ok. but if you guys are talking if this would surpass ted's version, uhh, that won't happen.
i think i know why we all LOVE TED NEELEY's version (i love it even more than IAN GILLIAN's OST version). it's because he gave it this rock-ish style and he pulled it off perfectly then after than nobody could match it already. not even SEBASTIAN BACH.
I agree Ted Neeley is classic but Steve Balsamo is exceptional stunning for his performance in Hollnad June 2004. Watch on Youtube: "Steve Balsamo - Gethsemane from Jesus Christ Superstar - Ahoy, Holland - June 2004" Balsamo's performance took over despite my high appreciation for Ted Neeley and Ian Gillan's version.
For an opera singer this is a very difficult song, way on the other side of the spectrum of styling,,,but he didn't do too bad cuz he's just mad talented.
So all yall complainin should fk off, cuz most opera singers wont even try such a widely varying genre like he does.
Everybody who's saying that his voice ain't powerful... of eff off. :P people have different styles of singing. He doesn't have to SHOUT to carry the emotion, he already does it with gestures, facial expressions and tricks with his voice in right parts. Not EVERYBODY has to sing it exactly like, eg. Steve Balsamo does, people have different styles and voices and techniques. Im Tae Kyung would sing this even better now, after 4 years I think.
I'm a fan of him. if there is anyone to listen his another song, I recommend you to check 'adagio' he sang. that's very nice.
but when it comes to this performance, I think he should have focused more on the way of expressing the feeling, rather than just singing itself, because this is musical song. If he has a chance to listen Ted Neeley's renditon, he may have understood what I'm concerning. anyway, this was good though.
Last night, I suddenly find him. I love him immediately. He is a great singer ! He is the treasure of korean . Where I can buy his muscial DVD. I can't find in Hong Kong. Is there anybody kindly tell me.
Oh, gosh theres some other video of him singing this song, that its not that good, He is WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY BETTER NOW!! He actually did a great job this time!
i gotta admit, when i first clicked on this link to this video, i was like "oh, jesus, whst kinda shit is this gonna be?"...but i actually quite enjoy his voice and think he sang it very well.
hmmm...he's alright, but the highlight of the song is when the singer hits that high G. If you want to hear the best jesus, listen to steve balsamo sing this song. It's all over youtube. TRUST ME PEOPLE. HE IS AWESOME. DEFINATELY RIVALS TED NEELEY. In fact go watch it NOW! Everything is perfect, from the singing, the facial expressions, to the arrangement. It is just beautiful.
I almost cried while he sung. He has strong & heartbreaking voice....and sad eyes.
