“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 die”
听到这里泪目，这是Poor old Judas的自白。
JCS重构了基督教故事：耶稣凭借一次成功的死亡，完成了一场震荡千年的Propaganda。无论这场宣传中占主导地位的，是神的旨意还是由凡入圣的必须，他都成功了——无论过去是真是假，十字架上，他都成了货真价实的King of Jews。JSC从传播学角度上戏仿并提出问题：
Who are You? What have You sacrificed?
也是为何要要谑称耶稣为Superstar：
Jesus Christ, superstar:
Do You think You’re what they say You are?
……
Did You mean to die like that?
Was that a mistake, or
Did You know Your messy death would be a record breaker?
JCS所做的，是从壁画上与颂歌中，把受难与背叛的人像解放出来，让他们可以有自己的话语，即使是在宗教上极具颠覆性的话语。耶稣可以怀疑过上帝的旨意，犹大也可以有对耶稣矛盾的爱，抹大拉的玛利亚可以有私念，但最后又忠诚于耶稣……原始文本留给创作者的空间是如此宽广，无怪来自神话、宗教乃至经典小说的题材，都能够经受一次又一次的再创作。（点名藻海）

“I don’t know how to love him
I don’t know why He moves me
He’s a man
He’s just a man
He is not a king
He’s just the same
As anyone I know
He scares me so”
