Bet you didn't know I was into theater, did you? I'm not, actually, but this role kind of fell in my lap. Auditions for the spot of Jesus were coming to New Orleans, where I happen to live. I was notified just days before and thought: “why not?“ I love Ian Gillan because of Deep Purple. Figured I'd give it a try and see what happens! Next thing I know, I'm being flown back and forth to New York for auditions with the producers. I didn't get the spot for said reasons, but I was offered acting classes if I'd be willing to audition again in 2020. Then bam! Covid! So who knows? Maybe this is how that story ends, or maybe not.. This song has taken the mantle of “hardest to perform“ from Soundgarden's “Fell on Black Days.“ Hope y'all enjoy it!

Written by Andrew Lloyd Webber, & Tim Rice. Performed by Ian Gillan Lyrics: I only want to say If there is a way Take this cup away from me For I don't want to taste its poison Feel it burn me I have changed I'm not as sure, as when we started Then, I was inspired Now, I'm sad and tired Listen, surely I've exceeded expectations Tried for three years, seems like thirty Could you ask as much from any other man? But if I die See the saga through and do the things you ask of me, Let them hate me, hit me, hurt me, nail me to their tree I'd want to know, I'd want to know, my God I'd want to know, I'd want to know, my God Want to see, I'd want to see, my God Want to see, I'd want to see, my God Why I should die Would 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 Lord Have to know, I'd have to know, my Lord Have to see, I'd have to see, my Lord Have to see, I'd have to see, my Lord If I die what will be my reward? If I die what will be my reward? Have to know, I'd have to know, my Lord I'd have to know, I'd have to know, my Lord Why should I die? Oh why should I die? Can you show me now that I would not be killed in vain? Show me just a little of your omnipresent brain Show me there's a reason for your wanting me to die You're far to keen and where and how, but not so hot on why Alright, I'll die! Just watch me die! See how I die! Then I was inspired Now, I'm sad and tired After all, I've tried for three years, seems like ninety Why then am I scared to finish what I started What you started, I didn't start it God, thy will is hard But you hold every card I will drink your cup of poison Nail me to your cross and break me Bleed me, beat me Kill me Take me, now! Before I change my mind
