Jesus Christ Superstar (1973) Heaven On Their Minds (2)
This movie was filmed on location in Israel. The ruins of Avdat, the greatest Nabatean city in the Negev, lie on a limestone hill overlooking the desert. The remains include two impressive Bysantine churches, a wine press, and many other interesting finds. The place is under the auspices of the Avdat National Park.

JUDAS:

My mind is clearer now.
At last all too well
I can see where we all soon will be.
If you strip away The myth from the man,
You will see where we all soon will be. Jesus!
You've started to believe
The things they say of you.
You really do believe
This talk of God is true.
And all the good you've done
Will soon get swept away.
You've begun to matter more
Than the things you say.

Listen Jesus I don't like what I see.
All I ask is that you listen to me.
And remember, I've been your right hand man all along.
You have set them all on fire.
They think they've found the new Messiah.
And they'll hurt you when they find they're wrong.

I remember when this whole thing began.
No talk of God then, we called you a man.
And believe me, my admiration for you hasn't died.
But every word you say today
Gets twisted 'round some other way.
And they'll hurt you if they think you've lied.
Nazareth, your famous son should have stayed a great unknown
Like his father carving wood He'd have made good.
Tables, chairs, and oaken chests would have suited Jesus best.
He'd have caused nobody harm; no one alarm.

Listen, Jesus, do you care for your race?
Don't you see we must keep in our place?
We are occupied; have you forgotten how put down we are?

I am frightened by the crowd.
For we are getting much too loud.
And they'll crush us if we go too far.
If we go
too far....

Listen, Jesus, to the warning I give.
Please remember that I want us to live.
But it's sad to see our chances weakening with every hour.
All your followers are blind.
Too much heaven on their minds.
It was beautiful, but now it's sour.
Yes it's all gone sour.

Listen, Jesus, to the warning I give.
Please remember that I want us to live.
C'mon, c'mon
He won't listen to me ...
C'mon,listen,listen to me...
C'mon,listen to me...
C'mon,listen to me...
Listen,listen to me...
C'mon,listen to me...
Listen to me...
Listen to me...

Jesus Christ Superstar (1973) The Last Supper (13)

APOSTLES Look at all my trials and tribulations
Sinking in a gentle pool of wine.
Don't disturb me now, I can see the answers
'Till this evening is this morning, life is fine.
Always hoped that I'd be an apostle.
Knew that I would make it if I tried.
Then when we retire, we can write the Gospels,
So they'll still talk about us when we've died.

JESUS The end...is just a little harder, when brought about by friends.
For all you care, this wine could be my blood.
For all you care, this bread could be my body.
The end! This is my blood you drink.
This is my body you eat.
If you would remember me when you eat and drink.
I must be mad thinking I'll be remembered.
Yes, I must be out of my head.
Look at your blank faces. My name will mean nothing
Ten minutes after I'm dead.
One of you denies me.
One of you betrays me.

APOSTLES No! Who would?! Impossible!

JESUS Peter will deny my in just a few hours.
Three times will deny me,
And that's not all I see.
One of you here dining,
One of my twelve chosen
Will leave to betray me.

JUDAS Cut the dramatics!
You know very well who.

JESUS Why don't you go do it?

JUDAS You want me to do it!

JESUS Hurry, they are waiting.

JUDAS If you knew why I do it

JESUS I don't care why you do it!

JUDAS To think I admired you.
Well now I despise you.

JESUS You liar. You Judas.

JUDAS You want me to do it!
What if I just stayed here
And ruined your ambition.
Christ you deserve it.

JESUS Hurry, you fool. Hurry and go.
Save me your speeches,
I don't want to know. Go!

APOSTLES Look at all my trials and tribulations
Sinking in a gentle pool of wine.
What's that in the bread? It's gone to my head,
'Till this morning is this evening, life is fine.
Always hoped that I'd be an apostle.
Knew that I would make it if I tried.
Then when we retire, we can write the Gospels,
So they'll all talk about us when we've died.

JUDAS You sad, pathetic man, see where you've brought us to,
Our ideals die around us and all because of you.
But the saddest cut of all:
Someone has to turn you in.
Like a common criminal, like a wounded animal.
A jaded mandarin,
A jaded mandarin,
Like a jaded, faded, faded, jaded, jaded mandarin.

JESUS Get out they're waiting! Get out!
They're waiting, Oh, they are waiting for you!

JUDAS Every time I look at you I don't understand
Why you let the things you did get so out of hand.
You'd have managed better if you had it planned...
Oh....

APOSTLES Always hoped that I'd be an apostle.
Knew that I would make it if I tried.
Then when we retire, we can write the Gospels,
So they'll still talk about us when we've died.

PS here are the words in case you feel inclined to sing along ... :)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xhosa_language

NB!!! For the Xhosa people, see Xhosa.

Xhosa language

Xhosa, (isiXhosa) is one of the official languages of South Africa. Xhosa is spoken by approximately 7.9 million people, or about 18% of the South African population. Like most Bantu languages, Xhosa is a tonal language, that is, the same sequence of consonants and vowels can have different meanings when said with a rising or falling or high or low intonation. One of the most distinctive features of the language is the prominence of click consonants; "Xhosa," the name of the language itself, begins with a click.

Xhosa is written using a Latin alphabet-based system. Three letters are used to indicate the basic clicks: c for dental clicks, x for lateral clicks, and q for palatal clicks (for a more detailed explanation, see the table of consonant phonemes, below). Tones are not indicated in the written form.... etc

Dialects
Xhosa has several dialects, including

Gcaleka
Ndlambe
Ngqika (Nqqika, considered "standard")
Thembu
Bomvana
Mpondomse (Mpondomise)
Mpondo
Xesibe
Rharhabe
Bhaca
Cele
Mfengu[2]
Hlubi- There's still a debate about the whether the Hlubis belong to the Zulu, the Xhosa or they have their own King

There is some debate among scholars as to what exactly the divisions between the dialects are

Miriam Makeba - The Click Song
Click to expand...

incidentally,
a couple of points about youtubes... already mentioned a few months back, but maybe you missed it ...

You can either a) click (or double click) on the arrow ...
or b) click (or double click) on the picture other than at the arrow.

advantages of a) (imo) include:-
1. you can move to another page or thread of ASF to read about shares without turning off the song as you do so - because the song is going on in a separate window, it will continue

2. you see all the "related" songs - same singer, same broadway show, same song by different singers, even the same song by the same singer

3. you can watch the singer in a separate window, and follow the words / lyrics in the ASF thread (if they are posted).

4. sometimes ( eg the Miriam Makeba song above) the youtube is not available for insetting into a locked window in ASF, and clicking on the arrow just gives you "We're sorry, this video is no longer available". In these cases you have no choice but to double click on the picture rather than the arrow if you want to hear it. :2twocents

Incidentally, I notice recently if you double click on the picture in ASF, (option b), then you trigger the song both in that locked window, and also in a new window. But then you simply turn off one or other - leaving the option you prefer.

PS further to 4. above, suppose you click on the arrow, and are met with "We're sorry, this video is no longer available", then you have to reset the screen (Cntrl+R) - or move to another page and then return if you prefer. (obviously second time around, just click or double click on the picture) :2twocents

PS how to post a youtube? just find the 11 alphanumeric characters (code) between a prefix which ends in "v=" ; and (sometimes, not always) a suffix which starts with "&"
and add "youtube" and "/youtube" before and after that code in square brackets ..

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Mwh9z58iAU
becomes
{youtube}2Mwh9z58iAU{/youtube}
just change the curly brackets to square and you get the embedded youtube.

HEN WLAD FY NHADAU

Mae hen wlad fy nhadau yn annwyl i mi,
Gwlad beirdd a chantorion, enwogion o fri
Ei gwrol rhyfelwyr, gwlad garwyr tra mad
Tros ryddid collasant eu gwaed.

Chorus

Gwlad, gwlad, pleidiol wyf i'm gwlad,
Tra mor yn fur
I'r bur hoff bau,
O bydded i'r heniaith barhau


**** T R A N S L A T I O N ****
The old land of my fathers is dear to me,
A land of poets and singers, famous people of renown
Its brave warriors, great patriots,
For freedom they lost their blood

Chorus
Country, country, I'm partial to my country,
While the sea is a wall for the pure, dear country,
O may the "old language" continue

Old mountainous Wales, paradise of the poet,
Every valley, every cliff is beautiful in my sight;
Through patriotic feeling, more enchanting is the murmur
Of her streams and rivers to me.

bit of nonsense - you'll get the ghist after a minute (or less)

Moral of the story - try setting your next argument with the missus to music ;)

Argument to Beethoven's 5th

first a sunset in the west
next a chair in which to rest
third a mellow Merlot red
fourth some headphones on my head
finally a CD playing
belting out Beethoven's fifth
waving arms, saliva spraying
happily until I'm pifth. :eek:

My GF was watching last season's Aussie version of "So you think you can dance" and i could hear the music in the study. One of the tunes i got was Mad World by Gary Jules. There where heaps more that i could not find and i was wondering if anyone has seen a list of the music on the show?

I don't listen to much radio here so i need to search for new music.

Here's the link to Mad World.
