*Andrew Lloyd Webber's rock Opera (libretto by Tim Rice) "Jesus Christ is a Superstar", which has become a classic of world music. The role of Jesus Christ was played by Ian Gillan. In 1973, the film "Jesus Christ — Superstar" was released, but in this version of the work, the role of Jesus Christ was played by Ted Neely, since Gillan, who had a busy tour schedule with Deep Purple, set too high requirements for his participation.*Gethsemane (I Only Want To Say)I only want to sayIf there is a wayTake this cup away from meFor I don’t want to taste its poisonFeel it burn meI have changedI’m not as sure, as when we startedThen, I was inspiredNow, I’m sad and tiredListen, surely I’ve exceeded expectationsTried for three years, seems like thirtyCould you ask as much from any other man?But if I dieSee the saga through and do the things you ask of meLet them hate me, hit me, hurt me, nail me to their treeI’d want to know, I’d want to know, my GodI’d want to know, I’d want to know, my GodWant to see, I’d want to see, my GodWant to see, I’d want to see, my GodWhy I should dieWould I be more noticed than I ever was before?Would the things I’ve said and done matter any more?I’d have to know, I’d have to know, my LordHave to know, I’d have to know, my LordHave to see, I’d have to see, my LordHave to see, I’d have to see, my LordIf I die what will be my reward?If I die what will be my reward?Have to know, I’d have to know, my LordI’d have to know, I’d have to know, my LordWhy should I die?
