I Don't Know How to Love Him

Common card · No. 306270

"I Don't Know How to Love Him" is a song from the 1970 album and 1971 rock opera Jesus Christ Superstar written by Andrew Lloyd Webber (music) and Tim Rice (lyrics), a torch ballad sung by the character of Mary Magdalene. In the opera she is presented as bearing an unrequited love for the title character. The song has been much recorded, with "I Don't Know How to Love Him" being one of the rare songs – after the 1950s, when multi-version chartings were common – to have had two concurrent recordings reach the Top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100, specifically those by Helen Reddy and Yvonne Elliman.
