There were three things that led to this video. First, I just happened to see Jesus Christ, Superstar on the Sundance channel a few months ago.

Second, I remembered a comment I read from one of the PTBs at Smallville. He said that one of differences between the Superman movies and Smallville is that in the movies, Superman is the real person and Clark Kent is a disguise he puts on, whereas in Smallville, Clark is the real person.

Third, I remembered the episode with the kid who could see how people would die when he touched them. When he touched Clark, all he saw was the Superman cape fluttering in the wind. Some people said that meant that Clark would never die because he's Superman. I thought, perhaps it means that Clark Kent has give up his life in order for Superman to live.

This video goes along with canon. I've used clips from Smallville and from the various Superman movies.

Thanks to my wonderful betas, mkitty_03, euphony_m and talitha78. Your comments, suggestions and support help me to be a better vidder. *hugs*

I hope you enjoy it!

Thank you! I appreciate your going to the effort of getting it downloaded. I tried emailing you the larger file, but now yousendit is telling me I have to login to upload it. It's very annoying. I've emailed their support to find out why, but I think even if I emailed it, you wouldn't be able to download. :(

Streamload says it's going to be up later today, so I'll keep checking on it and put a comment here when the larger streamload file is ready to download again.

I'm so glad you liked the vid! The singer is Ian Gillan; he sang the part of Jesus on this version, which is the the first one I ever listened to back in the 1970s.

Ah yes, I remember the Ian Gillan version - it was the concept album wasn't it?

Very annoying about YSI. I'll try Streamload later when I'm at home. You might try somewhere like Megaupload - I've always found them quite good.
