Trivia:
"King Herod's Song" is actually a number from "King Richard", a failed Andrew Lloyd Webber musical. Tim Rice had to write new lyrics for this number so that it could be added to "Jesus Christ Superstar"; originally, the number was called "Those Saladin Days".

No where in the credits or any of the interviews is it noted that this is a 'verbatim' reenactment of the events recorded in the bible.
