From the 1973 original movie production, Yvonne Elliman sings ‘I Dont Know How To Love Him’ Note:This scene is shot in low light and candles. It’s supposed to be dark. ~Ric~ Lyrics: …Close your eyes close your eyes and forget all about us tonight. MARY MAGDALENE: I don’t know how to love him. What to do, how to move him. I’ve been changed, yes really changed. In these past few days, when I’ve seen myself, I seem like someone else. I don’t know how to take this. I don’t see why he moves me. He’s a man. He’s just a man. And I’ve had so many men before, In very many ways, He’s just one more. Should I bring him down? Should I scream and shout? Should I speak of love, Let my feelings out? I never thought I’d come to this. What’s it all about? Don’t you think it’s rather funny, I should be in this position. I’m the one who’s always been So calm, so cool, no lover’s fool, Running every show. He scares me so. I never thought I’d come to this. What’s it all about? Yet, if he said he loved me, I’d be lost. I’d be frightened. I couldn’t cope, just couldn’t cope. I’d turn my head. I’d back away. I wouldn’t want to know. He scares me so. I want him so. I love him so.
Wonderful video and song!
Beautifully done!
Soooo beatiful.
Yvonne Elliman.. hehe got it
heard some other versions.. but this is one version i really love.. but I don’t know her name.. anyone care to tell me the original singer’s name?
Feel like i was a child. Thks
absoluitly beautiful so emotional
bellissima
one word says it all….BEAUTIFUL
Overflowing with emotion. Superb. That her voice struggles a bit when transitioning between registers simply enriches the output.
Mary was hot!
I’ve heard so many versions of this from Salonga to Brightman. Nothing beats the original. You don’t have to have a super high or strong voice to make a memorable sound recording.
It just takes a unique perfect voice for that perfect composition.
Again, nothing beats the original. (Except for Bananarama’s Venus version…just joking.)
I remember being 16 and in love with Yvonne Elliman, I’m 47 now and still in love with her voice.
Wonderful song! This is a history. I will never forget.
Sanne,

bellisima cancion sin palabras.
I just saw JCS live in Nanaimo, BC, with Ted Neely still playing the part of Jesus. Small guy but ‘plenty power.’
SARAH HANLON is taking the role of Mary. Very nice voice and well worth seeing live. Dynamic cast. Judas played by JOHN TWIFORD has an awesome voice.
Go see the live play if you can. Just google it to find out where its touring next. Amazing to see such a big cast these days and very reasonalby priced.
The band playing in the pit was awesome too.

Love this Song… Love Jesus.
I remember my shock when her disco song, “If I can’t have you” came out. It was so different from this song.
pretty song … wish me luck performing it with the flute
i have to do this song for a chorus concert. i have to play this song on guitar and i think it is truly beautiful.
Her voice makes me weep. So beautiful and emotional.
she´s the very best
absoultly beautiful so emotional
Such amazingly profound lyrics…. So vulnerably sung. Really beautiful still after so many years now.
