Jesus Christ Superstar
Anyone who reads my posts knows that I am not an overtly religious person. Given that, I listened to JC Superstar yesterday and after 30 years (yeah, can you believe it has been around that long) it continues to have a deep affect on me.
"The Garden of Gethsemane" still brings tears to my eyes and "39 Lashes" leading into the intro of "Jesus Christ Superstar" still sends chills up my spine. Great music.
I remember when it was first released and was very contraversial. I remember my dad thinking that it was blasphemous and hated "King Herod's Song". But, when you listen to it, it really tells us the story in the Bible of Christ's death. In the religion of sassy, I make sure I listen to it at least once during the Lenten season (although I am a few days early this year).
