@HumanEarth @legalboxers "Set to be a “religious-Rock” song, Jewish Norman Greenbaum used “Jesus” thinking (correctly) that it would be more marketable this way…he was right. In his own words – “I’m just some Jewish musician who really dug Gospel music. I decided there was a larger Jesus Gospel market out there than a Jehovah one.”
The singers take on the song –
“It appeals to one’s inner self and the need for redemption, plus, heck, who wants to go to hell?”
