  • The difference between Ted and Glen is the way they performe. In the videos of Ted I see that he really understands what he is singing about. After all, it is an experience that no one will ever have. I strongly feel that Glen rehearsed too much: 'I must look pleasured there, I must look angry there...' Ted is the role, and Glen plays the role. That's a huge difference.

  • Yes, I must admit that I far prefer Ted Neely in the role, I think his scratchy worn voice adds something to the character and the passion; I think Jesus plays better as someone without a perfect voice. The depth of feeling he gets is amazing and touched me every single time. That being said, Carter here has a magnificent voice and I don't think you can't deny he feels the passion and the pain. It is a great rendition, but a bit too theatrical-a bit too clean for me.

  • I met Gale ? who directed it as part of a 'meet the cast and crew' evening in Newcastle and this is her direction.

  • I love this version and Ted Neely, i am a christian and have been watching JCS since i was two year old. I find it has the truest insite into Jesus the man. I find both versions amazing, I saw this live unfortunatly without Glen Carter who i know has been playing Jesus for years and still does to this day.

    The only thing i hate about this version is the theme song JCS I just think it take away from the show.

  • has the key been put down? to be fair I wouldn't blame anyone for doing that. Carter tends to do the big notes in more of a 'head' voice whereas others have belted them out which makes it more impressive. Carter's Jesus is very polished and competent but a bit of a damp squib compared to other renditions. I think Steve Balsamo's version on the soundtrack CD is the best I have ever heard it. Saying that I do love Neeleys rasping screeches on the movie soundtrack.

  • I had never heard this version, and i never thought i would want to stop listening to this song before it ends. It's boring, or maybe the original Ted Neeley version is just TOO good. I have to say he's very brave for just trying to do something that's already been done in perfection. That's something admirable, I bet a lot of other actors didn't dare to take the role.

  • I despise this version of the story... But god. I do love the new instrumentals.

  • Why do you all compare this version with the seventies version?

    Just shut up and enjoy the music.

  • ....Великолепное видео! благодарю Вас!

  • Although he never actually performed the role, My personal favourite version is that of Ian Gillan on the original concept album. In order of best performances of this role, are: 1) Ted Neely 2) Steve Balsamo 3)Glen Carter
