"Simon Zealotes/Poor Jerusalem" from "Jesus Christ Superstar"

This is one of my favorite movies of all time--mostly because of how fantastically '70s it is.  I've already shared with you the clip from King Herod, which was supposed to be weird, but this clip is definitely one of most genuinely '70s moments.  The people fading in from nowhere, the freeze-frames in the dancing, the outfits--it's all good stuff.

And even after all that, Jesus is like, "That's cool, the outfits are rad.  But man, you don't get it.  If I'm gonna die for your sins, I'd better see some bellbottoms."

Something like that.  I'm not a biblical scholar, I'm just a guy who likes this movie.
