Alfie once said that Michael is a great actor and that no one can put the emotion in songs like he does. He couldn't be more right! I was blown away when I first heard this on his album, but seeing him sing it...OMG! Love him so much! ❤️
I think that Michael’s best version of this was on the album The Royal Hall Celebration for Andrew Lloyd Weber which included other great stars and songs like Antonio Banderas, Sunset Blvd, Phantom, etc.
If you are ever lucky enough to see Michael Ball in concert...GO!!! He is an unbelievable performer! I have seen him sing this and it reaches your SOUL! He puts EVERYTHING into it and it just emotionally drains to watch him. I have been a huge fan since the very first time I saw him is Les Miz.
Deal Michael: It seems that you feel every word! You are such a Blessing, to me. My husband left me with 3 kids to raise. You are my best friend!!!!! GOD Bless you Michael!!!!!
Love Michael and all his songs only singer I've constantly loved from my childhood teens and now adulthood he is Jesus to me lol just a beautiful version in tears right now just beautiful and stunning
Me too I LOVED him in Les Miserables and I try to follow ALL of his music. He's amazing. Wish he would do a tour in Washington State I'd be there in a heartbeat!
I just love you both and can never get enough of you. Please don’t split up it would break so many hearts. It would also leave a large hole in entertainment.
Every time I hear Michael sing this, it rips out my heart. The only other person I've heard that comes close is Stig Rossen, but I think Michael edges him out a bit. ❤️
laserwolf65 Not that it would matter, but Micheal is straight. Been with Kathy, his SO for 15 years. She is older than he is which I think is kind of cool (72).
@@MrsEJV just type it in... Colm has it on his page ..let me know what you think... Cause to me there is nothing like it his presence is breath taking..
elastic774 Well, I'm 73 and still learning! I always associated Colm with Les Mis. I loved this Gethsemane! I know the show is more ”rock”, but liked his version for the same reason I like Michael’s - the more shrill notes aren't in my wheelhouse. I completely understand the musicality of it but like chocolate and vanilla, we all taste and hear differently. Thank you so much for taking the time to let me know what I was missing.
Ilsa Ruthen OMG - thank you! I needed that. I just love the guy and admire he has been with Cathy, his SO since around 1990. They have lived together happily, never married and she is 75,.... And gorgeous. That makes her a few years younger than me and also makes me insanely jealous. When I watch Michael and Alfie together I realize it's been an hour and I haven't stopped smiling. We are so fortunate to have the technology to have this entertainment at our fingertips. I remember when we got our first TV in 1950! Is your name ”Ilsa”? My granddaughter is Isla but s is silent. Just curious. Love the name!
I'm glad you enjoyed it! I couldn't stop laughing. Yes, the name is I-l-s-a. I've always hated it, but your granddaughter's name is much cooler!@@MrsEJV
Absolutely the best version of this song. Don't need all those high notes. He sings it from his heart and soul
The emotion Michael puts into his portrayal of Jesus at this time of his life are heart wrenching. Excellent.
I don't know how he does it. When I hear this one I can hardly breathe. He's the absolute greatest OF ALL TIME!!!!!!!!
Every time he sings this,he puts so much soul,of himself into it,watching videos and seeing him sing it live both give me goose bumps xx
Goosebumps? I cried seeing him sing it live.
Wow! He sings like he’s still in his 20’s! I like this more than the ones with the shrieking notes! Well done, Michael! ❤️
Love Michael as a singer and and actor. A great Andrew Webber song
Words fail me. God has blessed this amazing young man
I could and have watched this video on a daily basis and never get tired of it. I just love him.

Love Michael Ball
This version and Paul Nolan's are the best For me in English. And Camilo Sesto's version the best in Spanish
Michael Crawford also does a good job with this song
Isn’t he magnificent. Wow.
Yes he certainly is.
Not the same without the high notes, but since this is Michal Ball singing, I cannot complain.
Powerful song.....
Perfect voice....
Micahael Ball's voice can turn the straightest of men gay.

wow!!
I hope he plays the Phantom soon :(
He made a brilliant Raoul de Chagny, one of the best I have seen
he should play Phantom!
god,what you have done on him. bring him to what he like in Andrew lyoid Webber '50th celebration.
Sheesh! He was already 54 that time. Of course, there's a change in his voice. People are getting old
Not bad but I like the way he sang it in the Andrew Lloyd Webber birthday celebration day
What Concert was this? Please
Which concert is this from?
Colm Wilkinson vesion the Best
Colm sang this?
@@MrsEJV oh yes....you should be able to type it in and find...
@@MrsEJV just type it in... Colm has it on his page ..let me know what you think... Cause to me there is nothing like it his presence is breath taking..

What's happen to Michael? So sad..........
What's happened? As far as I can tell he's fine! Still doing his radio show on BBC 2 and waiting for the theaters to reopen to go back into Hairspray.
Michael is fine! Lovely video recently on TH-cam with him doing Youll Never Walk Alone with Capt. Tom Moore.
If you want a good laugh check out Michael's Twitter page and watch him do the twist! Hilarious!

I prefer Michael Ball singing Anthem. For Gethsemane, I like the Ted Neeley version.
Ted Neeley and Steve Balsamo
I'm sorry, not particularly...
Ok then 🙄🙄🙄
Sorry but This song without the "falseto" is worthless. Noody compares with TED NEELY
Edi wow! 🤣🤣🤣
