  • STEVE HAS THE MOST AMAZING VOICE EVER................. MY #1 FAVORITE VOCALIST SINCE 1982 HAS MET HIS MATCH AND I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD EVER SAY THAT. BUT STEVE TAKES MY BREATH AWAY AND CHILLS COVER MY ENTIRE BODY AND I WEEP. HIS TONAL QUALITY IS UNMATCHED

    HIS PITCH PERFECT AND HE HAS A POWER AND A RANGE THAT IS REMARKABLE. YET WHAT I LOVE MOST IS HOW STEVE EMOTES ....SUCH PASSION AND CONVICTION IN EVERY SINGLE NOTE......SHEER BRILLIANCE!!!!!!!!!!! I AM A DEVOTED FAN FOR LIFE!!!!!!!

  • I wish I could have seen this live. I really hope that some day Jesus Christ Superstar will open again, with this amazing man as Jesus :)

see all

  • jesus christ! pun intended haha

  • great performance....though would it hurt him to move his arms a tad?

  • I love Steve and his voice is OUTSTANDING!!!! I think his voice has got better and stronger over the years. If you see him singing the same in Ahoy, Holland in June 2004. His voice has improved so much. Still an amazing voice...

  • Who else could sing this song LIVE so amazingly breathtaking? What a treat for us all!

  • Does anyone else find it funny that Jesus is wearing a tuxedo? 

  • Thank you SO much for putting that up! :)

  • I saw steve balsamo in jesus christ superstar way back in 1997 and his performance has stayed with me ever since, it was AWESOME, and I'll never forget it - this video brings back the whole moving experience !!!

  • What's even more amazing to me is he seems to have gotten better with this song over the years, just by performing it for other events. Even after he stopped the run. The 2004 one from Holland on here is...MAGNIFICO! To say the least.

  • I always watch in awe when Steve sings this - so moving and emotional. Simply wonderful.
