GMeP: JSC - Is Everything Alright?
This is a scene from the 1973 movie adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Webber & Tim Rice’s famous musical Jesus Christ Superstar. The song is called Everything’s Alright, and the performers here are Ted Neely (Jesus), Yvonne Elliman (Mary Magdalene) and Carl Anderson (Judas). The movie was superbly directed by Norman Jewison, also responsible of other great films like Fiddler on the Roof, The Cincinnati Kid or The Hurricane.
This clip is the perfect example of why I love this movie, because it shows the passion behind the characterisations, the beautifulness of the music and the power of its lyrics. A great moment from what is my favorite musical ever. It gives me the chills every time I see it.
PS.- You can get here this song's lyrics in its original version, and here in the spanish one.

No la he visto nunca, pero todo el mundo dice que está muy bien. Tendré que creeros...
Está muuuuuy bien. Aunque conozco a unas cuantas personas a las que el género musical no les hace especial gracia. En fin, todo es cuestión de gustos.
Y yo soy una de ellas...
