After watching many clips from Jesus Christ Superstar I thought that the Icelandic Jesus from 1995 was one of the best performers who have done this musical. So I uploaded my favorite song from JCS and my first video. Please tell me what you think about the video and the performance by Pétur Örn Guðmundsson.

  • have you ever heard spanish singer Camilo Sesto´s version?

    Andrew Lloyd Weber expressed some good opinions about it.

    If you want to search it, spell it

    Getsemani.

  • @edgarduberli Just checked it. He definatly has a good voice but I listended to two versions and I honestly thought one of them was terrible. The other was very good although I would have like to hear him work the high notes better (He has awesome high notes but he could have used them better) Sesto is very very good but I still prefer this version.

  • No matter the language, the message, the music and the faith is universal.

    Great performance of one of the greatest stories ever told. It has touched so many and will continue. Thumbs up from the USA.

  • The language on its own is beautiful, so it works so gracefully. :] incredible singer

  • This was so chilling! Really really excellent. I have done a version and wud love for people to tell me what they think. What I love about this song is that no matter what language it is in you can feel the power of it. Just loved this.

  • yeah he'd a some nice high notes, but the rest is terrible. there's no interpretation at all.

  • I agree, I like this one in Icelandinc. IT actually works very well! I'm impressed, keep up the good work!

  • The version that was made in Iceland in 2008 around Easter had an awesome Jesus, Krummi lead singer in icelandic rock band Mínus and guitarist and singer in icelandic band Esja

  • you forgot steve Balsamo who is the better jesus christ...
