- See Ted Neeley and Corey Glover in a never before seen behind the scenes documentary about Ted's "Farewell Tour" of Jesus Christ Superstar from 2006.
The backstage shots of cast during “Gethsemane” are priceless.
Breathtaking.🙏
I was honored to sit next to Ted for the entire showing of JC Superstar in New Brunswick last week as a VIP guest, and he shared all sorts of tidbits of the making of the movie and we had quite a few laughs. Like whenever Judas or Caiaphas was shown the crowd erupted in applause. Ted asked me, Why does everyone go crazy... and I said, They're bad boys! Women love bad boys. You're the good guy! We laughed. But when Gethsemane came on... we both went quiet into our own thoughts. It's that powerful; his singing is that powerful. And he was gracious, kind and generous of his time to each fan that night. He's a guy with a ton of class and talent! (And good for Corey here! Not easy to follow in Carl's footsteps)
Rest in peace Carl Anderson your voice lives on forever
WOW!!! Ted Neeley singing Gethsemane is the most inspiring, emotional performance I have ever seen!
Saw Neely and Anderson in the late 90s. Mindblowing.
@@luvmenow33 Oh I wish I could have seen that .
@@beaed9296 It was amazing.
I grew up on the original.
Gilliam & Head.
But these two owned it.
So true
I met Ted at a convention that same year - he couldn't have been nicer. When I told him I used "Gesthemane" as a tool to teach my students, he was unbelievable honored that he was giving back without knowing it.
Jesus Christ Super Star has always been my favorite musical. No one plays Jesus Christ better than Ted Neeley. Glad they video taped it. An excellent performance by Ted.
Ted Neeley is a good Jesus Christ but too bad that the movie didnt hold up on how good the musical is.
*Sharing my personal inner feelings from "Jesus Christ Superstar".*
I remember watching "Jesus Christ Superstar" in 1978 for the first time, this just after I had watched the tv series "Jesus of Nazareth" and the difference between the two can't be compared, not because one is better than the other but rather because they are so different from one another (if that makes sense?). I was 10 yrs old and had a hard time understanding "Jesus Christ Superstar" not because it was complex but rather because it was so ahead of it's time "representation concept wise", for me at that time anyways.
I was raised as a catholic and as I grew older, one could say my mentality changed and so did my faith. The older I got, the more I changed from having faith and became more and more "Agnostic" up to becoming eventually an "Atheist". But as someone once said and I don't remember who? The quote was "I don't believe in God but I am afraid of him", which struck me to my core because for the first time in my life, I finally found a way and the words to describe exactly what I was thinking and feeling when it came down to my way of seeing things clearly religion wise. Before "Jesus of Nazareth and Jesus Christ Superstar" there was a movie that I never missed every Easter, which was "The Ten Commandments".
At the time, I believed in God and watching "The Ten Commandments" was a must see even if I was in the middle of being grounded from watching tv for a week or so. My parents would let me watch the movie no matter what.
Now, as I write these words, I have to acknowledge that my faith is like a yo-yo but from the time I watched "Jesus Christ Superstar" and finally old enough to understand and respect its concept, I was hooked. From that moment on, till today, "Jesus Christ Superstar" has been and still is my favorite "musical movie", to which I can easily say that I watch at least 20-25 times a year. And every time I watch it, I am pulled into this inner battle of believing or being now an Agnostic, which is not a pleasant battle.
I also had the incredible pleasure to watch "Jesus Christ Superstar" live in concert, once with Carl Anderson and the other time with Ted Neeley but alas not with both of them at the same concert. What I remember feeling at those two concert was the exact same thing. I could not believe that I was seeing Jesus Christ Superstar live with the actual two main characters of the movie. I seriously thought I was dreaming because the movie was created and seen for the first time in 1973 while I was 5 yrs old at the time. And when I was a teen and understood the concept behind JCS, I never thought or imagined that I would one day see Jesus Christ Superstar with both Ted Neeley and Carl Anderson in a live concert. For me, this was a "bucket list" desire that I thought would never be possible. So, when those two moments happened, I was or better yet felt lifted, couldn't believe I was seeing Carl Anderson right in front of me on one occasion and another time with Ted Neeley, and had amazing third row center tickets on both occasions.
Now, every time I watch JCS on my tv or Laptop, this "agnostic" needle moves a bit closer to a renewed sense of faith. Which is as I described earlier, a inner battle of feelings that I can't put into words. So, like the quote says "I don't believe in God but I am afraid him". Or better yet, adding to this quote my own feelings and it would go like this "I don't think I believe in God but I definitely do fear him".
So, again, watching Ted Neeley live in concert reprising his role as Jesus in JCS is a moment in my life that I will never forget and was a huge moment which was high on my "To do List" or "crossing it off my bucket list moments".
When someone talks about the movie "Jesus Christ Superstar" or a live concert they went to, without either Ted Neeley or Carl Anderson, I am very fast to say, yeah I've seen the JCS live concerts, but I did so with Ted Neeley and Carl Anderson in the cast of the live concerts (yeah I did gloat about it and still do, so sue me).
Those are my feelings from just watching these two immortal giants live in concerts and I can't even imagine how the rest of the cast felt like, touring with Ted Neeley and Carl Anderson, what they must of felt during their JCS tours?
Yes, there's been many other JCS live concerts without either of them through the decades, but with all due respect to their talents, none ever came even close to the originals. I never wished having backstage passes more than for these two concerts with Ted Neeley and Carl Anderson. I would of paid thousands of dollars to get a chance to shake either one's hand. But in the end, I'll always have the memories of seeing both of them live about fifthly feet away from me.
*R.I.P Carl Anderson 1945-2004*
Sorry jeff fenholt … Is and was the best
You got that right, re Ted Neely. We have just had our local production on, & the guy who plays JC in it is the best I’ve heard, being a very good 1st equal place to Ted! 🎶
The actual Christ played him better as he died and RESURRECTED!
The moment Ted Neeley screams at Gethsemane brings chills everytime.
“JCSS” is the last movie I ever watched with my Dad, before he passed away. He loved Ted, and Carl. This brings back so many nice memories.
Hope you make new memories. If you haven't watched THE CHOSEN, It truly is the best Jesus and cast I have ever seen. Plus it is accurate/from the Bible.
My dad took me to see this in the theater in 1973, I was 3 years old and completely mesmorized. We then attended a performance in Philly in the early 90s with Ted and Carl performing. He is still with us but this will always bring back strong emotions and is one of the best times I ever had in my life! Brilliant music, film, and musical, a rare trifecta. Glad you got to share that moment with your dad, God bless!
@@seangrexa4707 I always tell the story how my mother picked me up early from kindergarten to see the first showing at noon of it. It was one of her favorite films and when she had Alzheimers it was one of the go tos that would totally engage her both in watching it and in her commentary. I can't watch it without becoming very emotional.
@@mediterraneanworld Thanks for the story, we have much in common! Unfortunately, my mother is starting to show mild signs now of some type of memory issues and these things run in her family so I can only pray for the best. God bless you and yours as we enter into this JCSS season and even the 50th anniversary next year!
I got to meet Ted Neeley back in 2015 and he was exactly what you would expect him to be. Super sweet and generous with his time. I felt so embarrassed meeting him during my 8 hours sandwiched in between 2 16 hour shifts and knowing I looked horrible in my guard uniform. He was amazing.
The way the cast was so mind blown by Teds high notes … man that guy puts so much soul into this part. No one does it like him.
Saw this in Vancouver in 2006, Ted stayed 2 hours after the show to meet every single person that wanted to talk to him and was gracious and kind to everyone.
I know it - unbelievable! I got the opportunity to meet him several times and he is so warm and gracious and best hugger ever!
Ted Neeley is a Superstar. I've seen him twice and he is the most amazing man. I really love his voice even at his 75
The pain in teds voice when he screams so raw and powerful you can tell the death of his friend cuts him deep.
I saw him & Anderson In the late 90s & believe me , edge of your seat the entire 2nd act.
Between this & Anderson's doing Judas' death scene. Unbelievable!
I have seen Ted Neeley play Jesus on film and in person. He is just as magical 50 tears later and still brings tears to my eyes.
Unfortunately, the band was never credited for this video. The tour ran from September of 2006 - June of 2007. The Music Director/Key 1 was David "Kep" Kaeppeler - Michael Mitchell was Key2/Associate Music Director - Nicklas Dickerson was on Guitars - John 'JT' Toney was the Bassist and Paul Hannah was the Drummer. Kep and Michael were present for the rehearsal process in NYC and the rest of us joined the tour in early September 2006 in Buffalo, NY (Where the tour opened and where the live show footage was filmed.) I had NO IDEA that opening night was the first time that Ted sang "Gethsemane" in a long time (watch the video for the story) - until I watched this. This tour was the greatest musical experience I have yet had on the road - I say that after a long time of playing Broadway show tours. It was so good to see old friends again. Enjoy!!
(The tour continued on from there with Ted and other musicians until May 2010.)
Thank YOU so much! 💪🏼💕♥️🙏🏽
J.C.S.is with no doubt the most beautiful musical movie ever. And Ted Neeley is such an humble simple man. But when He plays that role He magically gets IN JESUS mode.. it's s quite insane how He enters the role. No one like him
i'm not real into musicals , i was kinda forced into watching them with my g-mom, and aunts ,,because i was so young at the time, but this one i loved ,,,i still listen to at least once a week if not almost daily,, and it still always sounds strange to net hear ian gillian do the part, it's so different than ted's version,, my mother took me to see this at the forest theater in philly when it toured,,i still have the tour book ,, my mom knew someone who worked there so i got almost every cast member's autograph,,in that book,,, they were cool with me because i was a very little kid , and knew it word for word
also,, you should check out the movie version of EVITA , with madonna,, i'm not usually a big madonna fan, but she did that role perfect,,, and to my ear, it sounds much like JCS,, musically
i thought the movie was okay my thing is did they really had to put modern elements into the movie like whats up with the tanks or with the iron framing or the market scene it would have been better if they set it 2000 years ago when Jesus walked this beautiful Earth. i dont hate the movie or the show
@@BettyMareeHOHCountry They filmed JCS in Israel when Israel was fighting. The cast and crew had armed security.
I love the moment when he indeed sings GETHESEME , and the cast offstage who all appear to have been born long after the film, are amazed and swept up by him .
Priceless. When he hits that note the world stands still. Possibly one
of the best vocal performances ever. God bless Ted Neeley.
How about the note at 40:35? It's much higher than Ted's.
I love Ted and the song
After almost 30 years of marriage, my husband taking me to see this man sing in JCS remains the best present he has given me. Besides our kids, lol
Sure Ian Gillan et al. sang this great, but Ted Neeley gets into Jesus' Body and Soul when he sings this. So, no one can EVER sing this song like him.
Ma quale gillan Ted è insuperabile. Dicono addirittura che fosse stato doppiato
Ted Neeley is amazing. I thought he did a great job as Jesus. Very handsome, beautiful voice!
Our family growing up, religious or otherwise, still watch this film every Easter .....❤I'm 56 this year. Xx 😘
Ted Neeley is a real wonder. There is nothing else in the world like the feeling of being in the wings, watching a cast-mate absolutely transcend their big song. This would be the ultimate!
Ted Neeley after 457years your singing still gives me goose bones
Goose bones...heeheehee..you are funny! God Bless🌸🌷
It was the 457 years that got me.
Ted Neely is JCSS, no one can play it like him! Saw the anniversary play in New York in 1995 with my late husband! Mind blowing performance! RIP my beloved Joe and RIP Carl Anderson and the rest of cast that are no longer with us!✨🙏🏻✨❤️✨🕊️✨👏🏼✨
I had the privilege of meeting him in person in the late 90’s here in Edmonton, Canada. He was really nice and took time to talk to every fans that was waiting in line to see him that day.
I also met him several times. Long time fan- I love him! He was always so gracious and warm! Best hugger ever!
Fantastic performance by Ted, he’s is a Superstar. 👏👏🤗
I never can see him without tears...He is amazing, great and perfect! I love him and this performance was very good! Congratulations for every actor, singer and dancer here... to be Judas after Andrew is a huge challenge...the guy was almost same good like him! It is a big compliment!😊 Thank you for this experience!!!❤❤❤
The fact that he was able to perform at the level he did when he started JCS when he was 30 at 63 speaks volumes.
Tears...a transcendent performance. Thank you, Ted.
Saw Ted in this show twice in the late 90s. He was absolutely fantastic, and about blew our ears out during Gethsemane. 🤣
Only Ted can put the real "feel" and "heart" to this song. The live version is better than the one in the movie.😍😍😍🎶🎶💕👏👏👏
Ian Gillan was awesome as well...VERY awesome!
No one could replace Carl but Damn Corey was fantastic as judas so glad got to see him live
I am 56 yo, I remember the first time I heard this album, I was 5, I think. It was at my dad's apartment. Parent's were divorced for the first time. Never has an album made an impact on my life, heart and soul. Dad was absent but gifted me love of music. Much gratitude for that.
In the 90's the show was in Calgary with Ted and Carl. It was so wonderful I got a single for the next night too. I saw the movie when it first came out and got, then taped the album. I was working road construction as a flag person in the middle of nowhere on the prairies and played the tape, singing and dancing my heart out. I knew every word. ❤❤❤
I watched it again 2 days ago. 😊
No one can replace Carl Anderson.
No one lives forever my friend.
Carl Anderson, was the best
Correct. But Corey Glover is also an incredible and legendary performer.
Show must go on they say....
This is very true, but Mr. Glover pays a wonderful homage to Carl and i know it is a big honor to sing in his idol's role! He is also an amazing singer and performer and does the role justice.
Every time i hear Ted sing Gethsemane it brings tears to my eyes cause he sings it so beautifully
Still has hit after all these years...sooo impressive, Mr. Neeley,so impressive. Gethesemane is my favorite along with Hosanna
Wow! Corey Glover as Judas! Used to love him in Living Color. He's got a fantastic voice. It's sad thst Carl is gone. Miss that man, rest in peace, Carl.
Bless Ted's heart & soul...I, like Agnes below can't watch Ted without balling like a baby. He's a true God given gift.
I ABSOLUTELY remember seeing the film with Ted Neeley when I was a young teen. I was BLOWN AWAY!! I carried a copy of the review of it from Time magazine or Newsweek in my wallet for years.
I was 10 when I saw this movie/musical in the theater with Easter.
As a young believer in Jesus it's touched my heart so much that when I grew older and lost my touch with the Lord........... JCSS brought me also back to my Lord & Saviour. And my relationship with Jesus is now as it suppose to be. Praise Jesus Christ for fighting and bringing me back on the right path. I'm so blessed with the LOVE of our Lord Jesus.
Bless you all with His LOVE 💜💜💜
That's a cast full of talent .Ted can't be replaced .

I saw Ted Neely on tour years ago on New Year’s Day.. still one of the greatest performances I have ever seen on any stage.. it will be a memory I will never ever forget
I met Ted in Phoenix, Az during this tour. I said, "I've been waiting 35 years for this!" and I meant every word. JCSS-my favorite!
Carl Anderson WAS Judas, but Corey Glover (Living Colour) is amazing.
Terri Bey RIP...
I saw JCS with Ted and Corey in Charleston, WV a few years ago. Brought me to tears to this day!
I am in absolute awe of how amazingly well he pulled off that uncertain performance
Ted Neally... No words.
So wonderful to see you here.
I wish I could have seen him perform it live. It will always remain my favorite and most moving musical performance of all time. And I love musicals, theater or cinema. Thank you, Ted.💙💙💙💙
Amazing....since 1973 - he still has got it! Wow - high notes & all !!!! ( Steven Tyler eat his dust.LOL)
Lol- because Steven Tyler is one of my faves! But Ted- he's got it over Steven!!
My mom had the original brown album and I grew up listening to it. I really don't think I understood the whole story, just loved the songs. I seriously did not see the '73 movie until NBC and John Legend did their live version. I bought the movie from Amazon and watched it. Then watched it again. And again. I still love the original guys singing, but their songs are pure vocal songs. Beautiful. The movie and soundtrack has SO much emotion in every song, that it moves up to prominence for me. I have both albums on CD. Still listen to both.
When I was in 8th grade, we took a field trip to see Jesus Christ Superstar with Mr. Neeley, as well as the late, great Carl Anderson, JCST, remains one of my favorite musical expressions. Same year, I saw Michael Crawford play The Phantom on Broadway.
I cannot believe I didn’t know Corey Glover did a version of JCS until just now! Mind blowing, only second to the great Carl Anderson!♥️🌷❤️💕👏🏼
Wow, wow and wow! I was always touched so deeply when Ted sang way back (when I listened to this song as a child on vinyl in the 70s/80s), and then listening now to this performance at the Farewell tour, sent shivers down me. All the songs from Jesus Christ Superstar are amazing and touch the heart, mind and soul!!
The Vinal you had was more likely Ian Gillian if you had it in the 70s
@@luvmenow33 You're right, I just looked up the album I used to have. Both Ian and Ted have amazing voices although I must admit the emotion in Ted Neeley's voice when singing Gethsemane is something else!
la interpretación de Getsemaní es sublime. Su voz ya con los años pareciera expresar mejor el dolor y la angustia del momento.
Opino lo mismo y por mi ted siempre sera Jesucristo superestar
You nailed it!! He most certainly expressed the pure pain and agony of the moment. I felt it too.
I saw Ted Neeley when he did JCSS here in Montreal on his last tour. My first show ever when I was 47
Getting Jesus in your cab. Even I as an atheist would love that
I pray that the real Jesus will visit your cab someday & you feel HIS love for you.
Just watched the movie again last night for the nth time and was choked up as always. Best, most magnificent musical ever, and seeing Ted’s incredible stage performances over all these years, and the cast reactions, moves me indescribably. Thank you to everyone who made the original score and book, the movie, the shows, the casts and crews, thank you.
Ted Neeley... No one above him!
Can I get an "AMEN!"? 👍
AMEN!
I saw the movie when it came out. I was a new Christian, and I went with my Christian boyfriend. It has so many memories attached to it. It did help me on my Christian journey; it became so much more personal. Thank you.
I grew up with this music! Ted Neeley rocks!
That was incredible...
I watched this movie when I was 11 years old I had the album new every word to every song my sister and I would perform we still know if you were to this day! Love Ted Neeley he’s my favorite and Yvonne Elleman the music still touches my heart and makes me cry when I hear it!!!
Ted Neeley--- WHOA!!!
One of my all time favorites. I saw it 23 times when Ted and I was young. So you know how old I am and how many years ago. Ted and I are the same age😀
Aged 80 in 2023?
JCS is the best show ever. And it shows that Judas was/is NOT the "bad guy", on contrary, he wanted the best for Yeshua /Jesus Christ. And Ted Neeley plays Jesus perfectly!! Really the best show, I say it again! And yes, it's iconic! God bless Ted Neeley!
I saw this production! Ted Neeley was outstanding.
My mom took my to this play when I was young and knew Carl and Ted. At the time I didn’t know it was a movie as well but it was the best play I’ve ever been to! Got to go back stage and it was so AMAZING ❣
I saw it for the first time last night, it’s the best show Ive ever seen xx
Ted Neeley is absolutely phenomenal. I am sobbing my heart out. Bless you, Ted. You’re just the best ❤️
Thank you Mr. Ted Neeley for this wonderful and touching interpretation. I saw you for the first time in the first Italian distribution of the movie JCSS probably in 1973, and it was for me an important and deep musical experience. Today at 66 years old I saw this performance and simply cried like a baby. God bless you and please forgive my poor English.
We love our Lord and Savior👑Jesus Christ,
and we adore His Ted Neeley ! !
🤗♥️♥️🤗
Wow!!! My fervent wish to watch the stage version of JCS in my lifetime!!!👌🙏🙏🙏
Ted Neeley owns this role...
Ted Neeley is awesome as JCS... He has such a beautiful voice ❤❤❤❤
After 2000 years, Ted Neeley hasnt lost a single note
I love this musical it brings back great memories. Our school had this production. I miss all the casts of course now are all oldies and some had died. To God be the glory!
This was awesome! I love the movie.......one of the best ever! Great to hear about the relationship between Ted and Carl! 💜✝️ 🛐 from Texas
I just LOVE this so much. I've got to watch it again! Ted just has the most beautiful heart and soul. There's noone who does it better. And gets better with agel.
Jesus Christ Superstar has become my favorite and most revisited musical eversince my sister performed a In-Concert Version of the Show in 2016 and 3 years later I get to see the 50th Anniversary Version in-person in 2019.
As a new believer & follower, I believe & see that the show can be used as a Learning Tool to understand the teachings & history of the Bible including who Jesus is and other Biblical Characters that played a role throughout the Old & New Testament but also what lessons we can learn that we can relate to in our daily lives.
Even though the Musical had controverisal history & beginnings, I still feel this show can help & bring those to learn & dwell into the Faith to bring in the right questions & answers about the Christianity overall.
He may not be as great as Jesus but he's up there. Inspired unforgettable performance in the film, I'm still watching it in 2021 : )
Love the movie's music too - Stupendous!
And 2022!
Thank you all this moovie was a big change in my Life
In Highschool choir, as a sophomore in 1973. We started learning several Jesus Christ Supestar songs.. From "Heaven on their Minds." "Everything is alright", "Hosana", "I don't know how to love him" "King Herrod's Song" "Jesus Christ Supestar"... we sang these at are concerts. Which included a trip to Washington DC, and we sang them on the White House steps. I then picked up the Plays album as my album collection started. Also saw the Movie at the local Theater. By time I graduated in '75 I had learned all the songs. So for the last 52 years this been part of my life. What hooked me was hearing the voices singing professionally, and with the emotion that was displayed. Amen
O think that Ted Neeley sang here even better and stronger than in the original movie...
Here I am in 2023 thinking I can watch without crying. Nope; didn't happen.
I love watching all the reactions💙
Saw this show years ago. Absolutely unbelievable. Thank you for posting this. Ted brings tears to my eyes every time.
Saw this at Wolf Trap in Virginia. Amazing!
20 years of listening... my mind is clearer now!
My daughter and I went to see this movie when first came out and we stayed and watched it over and over and over. She memorized every song. When Ted sings, I want to cry, I get emotionally moved, Fantastic!!! Magnificent!!!
As for Mr. Glover he did justice singing heaven on their minds
Amazing performance!
Ted Neeley is still a Rock God !
Love ted neeley. He makes jesus come to life. Some of you might want to watch freek bartels do getsemane.
I have to find clips like this on TH-cam because I was crazy enough to miss this run when Corey was in it. Thanks a lot for this post!
So grateful for this video! I attended the 2006 show in Milwaukee Wi. It was spectacular!
goosebumps!
Ted is a legend!!!
