"Everything's Alright" from "Jesus Christ Superstar"

The first time I saw the movie "Jesus Christ Superstar" was in a high school history class.  I was instantly hooked.  People probably think the musical is just about Jesus--and it mostly is--but to me, it's also about how awesome the '70s were.  When I ask people if they've ever seen this and they say no, it's hard to explain just how '70s it really is.  All the facial hair, all the slo-mo shots... it's all fantastic.  Carl Anderson (Judas) died a few years ago, but Ted Neely (Jesus) is still kickin' it.  I saw him in a traveling version of the show, and he's still rocking it.  

So here's "Everything's Alright," in all of its 1973 glory:
