[TheFlyingNinjaBear]

[Ne0tmc]

apollo 13

[briancorley1991]

supernatural brought me here

[westlag]

I lost my virginity to this record onbaord SS Uganda on an educational cruise to thr Med - what an education - you still out there Squid?

[mahawnxejn]

when I die I am going to nowhere

[bigladwilly]

@collegehumorrules youre thinking of a ZZ Top song. cant remember the name though :/

[diabloboy101]

@bigladwilly tush?

[WOOT60]

@bigladwilly

Dude LA Grange

[beebnmeem]

so want this at my funeral!

[collegehumorrules]

There was a GH3 song with this riff... What was it?

[discodude72]

@collegehumorrules "Call Me" by Blondie. Lol i dont even play GH3, im just guessing

[spacecowboy7580]

@collegehumorrules

In parts it reminds me of On The Road Again..Canned Heat.

[zanzibar79]

Did someone just say, "This is the fucking shit mah nigger"? I hope they did.

[gnarbarmedia]

he's most likely jewish.

[fourbyfourer]

I sure hope when I die and they lay me to rest I will be a spirit in the sky!!

[negativewierdo]

Your nothing, your less than nothing, why don't you just quit?!

[Frintzilla]

Never understood why do people argue about music on youtube. If you like a song put on your headset, turn the volume up, close your eyes and do not think about anything just listen.

[MrCheesecakelol]

Dean and Sam walking into town with guns in their hand... *spirit in the skyyyyyy!!*

[beebnmeem]

@MrCheesecakelol what!?! I swear everytime I hear a song in SUPERNATURAL that I like there is a comment on here about it- u posted that comment a week ago? crazy! I guess I jus forgot how much I loved this song until they used it in SE5EP2..haha watching this in 2012-u kno whats weird? In SE1 when Sam n Dean Crashed with their dad and they played "Bad Moon Rising"-I looked up the song on youtube the same day n someone wrote "Poor Dean and Sam crashed their Car" so u saying this-its pretty crazy

[bijibadness]

the best one hit wonder ever??

[kevman9301]

Hey...I'm not sure about God being out there but this is one great song!

[koulie96]

Supernatural!!!



[beebnmeem]

@koulie96 crazy i jus watched the episode of them walkin into town n this song playing witht he car turned over-supernatural is so Under rated its crazy

[kevinfromqtown420]

this guy is not religous in any way but this song is bad ass

[theriverandthesea]

to the guitar hero'er: play it on guitar! its just a e and d

[DMG118]

This is my favorite Christian worship song. Classic.

[mgdivad]

check out 'sacred geometry' the amazing patterns that are everywhere, for someone to say God doesnt exist is like an ant saying there is no internet. Einstein said the most amazing thing about us is that we can understand the universe. The information it takes for our lungs to breathe and to see and understand things, even if we started as some kind of algae is incomprehensible to me. I do believe in a god. maybe not that we were created in 7 days, but there is a divinity in the universe.

[911whatsyourproblem]

This Is an awesome song! Love whats its sing about :) !!!

[rampareg]

why does the guitar in the intro sound like farts?

[northstar1950]

@rampareg Controlled distortion.......fuzz box.

[Sloation]

sorry to break this to you guys but there is no god....... theres no evidence to suggest he ever existed... sorry, great song though

[Sezzix]

..Lol I remember watching Supernatural season 5 and this was on..War the horseman...Good times

[AthrunZala898]

Which game is this on, again? Rock Band 2 or Guitar Hero III? 'Cuz once I figure it out, I'm gonna go play it.

[voicilagabriel]

@AthrunZala898 Rock Band 2

[maxyboi1000]

this song is why there should be a 'love' button

[buggyskinnerms028]

17 people are going to hell. hahahaha

[happyenjoytime]

What's do dislike? ... you gonna meet your maker ... we all are ... what you gonna say?

[spacecowboy7580]

@happyenjoytime

I'm gonna say...git outta my seat boy.

[greggieguygood]

Are you sure He'll take a wretch like me?

[jeffh149]

got to have a friend named jesus, so he can recomend u to the heaven

[nedladdy]

I haven't this in donkeys years, when did it come out?

cheers

[YourBreakfast]

@nedladdy '69

[nedladdy]

@YourBreakfast Cheers thanks brekky. That recent eh?

[miniconco]

Supernatural :D

[bulletproovemusic]

A blues song about God?

HALLELUJAH!

[PeregrineTrousers]

That guitar sounds likean angry bee.

[BunchaCrunchaMunch]

I thought Jews believed in God too--Why is everyone making such a big deal out of this song?

[mick2345vid]

@BunchaCrunchaMunch some believe in god some dont well i dont if hes real or not do you ??????

[Abrasive84]

Sexiest music with the least sexy lyrics.

[steeplepossum39]

EXCELLENT!

[badgerstep]

I sang this when i threw a bottle of vodka at an aroplane.

[snuffsaren]

@badgerstep HAHAHAHAHHAHA OMG!!!!! Thumbs up!!!

[wentover1]

@badgerstep =LOSER!!!

[gregcarrsaved]

This song and Jesus Is Just All Right by the Doobie Bros. are the only two faith based songs I can think of that are any good.

[Remorath]

@gregcarrsaved It's not faith-based, it's ironic. Greenbaum was Jewish and wanted to prove he could write something that sounded like a gospel song.

[Tote1883gas]

@gregcarrsaved what about god save the queen by the pistols?

[123456711085]

|@chris so sorry for your loss :( :(

[713nova]

christ..hell..its all the same..I,m bored..anybody got anything to do? jesus..half of mexico is called jesus..I,m sick of it..me want love..now..need nice boy.check me.

[TheReasonableHuman]

[space2ify]

MIAMI BLUES 1990:)

[cuecuaxu]

aora ya nadie escucha canciones asi sin saber que son las mejores:)

[mahoganyrush300]

I hope he finds yeshua machiach

[anaraquel6092]

Essa musica é PERFEITA!

[kildekin]

Im not wise enough to understand weather or not it is possible for a supreme creator to exist or not. I am wise enough to realise that earthly religions are mainly bullshit peddled by men but each religion has elements in it that I agree with and rules that I live my life by.

If I do have a creator he will see my deeds and be pleased if I do not, I will see them and be pleased. Be good brothers its worth it!

[liveslowlivesimple]

@kildekin good deeds are worth it, whether there is a god or not. you dont need a religion to find peace or happiness.

[sallyfieldrequired]

I wonder if he knew how influential this song would become

[jonnyjumpsalot]

I played this at my funeral...

[ChrisAmazon]

This was at my dads funeral. This song is fucking great!

[TheFlyingNinjaBear]

@ChrisAmazon I like you man. Seeing the brighter side of life when your talking about the darkest.

[fabianoftw]

December Boys *\ó/*

[QtipParadise]

awesome song, terrible quality, kinda ruins it.

[seba6452]

[madeupname543]

My uncle wants this played at his funeral.

[greenrocks1987]

[hjenkinz]

@greenrocks1987 im glad your child is dead

[rykera69]

@hjenkinz your not even talking to me,and i dont have to look back at the convo to say fuck you, inconsiderate douche

[MrTaylan96]

@hjenkinz WOW what's your problem dude, thats not cool. please do the world a favor and kill yourself. at that day the whole world is gonna have a party you sick motherf*cker

[hjenkinz]

@MrTaylan96 woah dude, that's fucking sick. chill out man

[MrTaylan96]

@hjenkinz ok srry, but what you said just pissed me off, what else could I say?

[hjenkinz]

@MrTaylan96 yeah well i hope your family is dead

[MrTaylan96]

@hjenkinz hahahaha okok I get it. I don't respond anymore, only one thing.... ARE YOU F*CKING INSANE YOU F*CKING LUNATIC! pfff keyboard-warriors...

[hjenkinz]

@MrTaylan96 lol, fag

[DozerandDaisy2]

I'm an atheist and I freaking love this song.  :D

[Zeon707]

@DozerandDaisy2 Well it's not religious, so it doesn't really matter.

[vicecity117]

this sucks compared to the doctor and the medics version! 80s all the way

[happionecom]

@vicecity117 We all have our own era and this is a complement to the 60'/70s :) 

[Vladorz]

Supernatural S05 E02 - this song made that episode! :)

[lilbro4u2003]

haha shows weed in the pic and talking about jesus. praise jesus though! still funny

[cindygibbsbarfield]

gonna play this one when the time comes.

[leokello]

17 people are going to hell...

[VENNIELLOYD]

Are you crazy!!! Don"t we all want to go to the place that"s the best? The Spirit in the Sky is where I want to go!!! Don"t know about the dislikes.

[777chapstick]

Who dislikes this?! Seriously!

[reesenator2014]

walk up for baseball right here

[jackfudgeu]

driving down a long highway with this song windows down wind blowing threw my hair is the best feeling ever.

[rominevideos]

with everybody bitchin about religion im gonna through something random in there. this song was in a really good episode of Supernatural :)

[jjubb17]

This music is Godly how can people dislike it?

[kauannegata]

17 Demons do not like this music

[jettsta2401]

this reminds me of zz top

[abcaines]

@jettsta2401 ZZ Top uses the same riff in La Grange

[abcaines]

@jettsta2401 It was a signature riff for John Lee Hooker.

[cuedva]

at the beginning it sounds like someones farting

[BooBooBelinda]

@cuedva no. just bloody no!

[CUBALAW]

Can't you "tards" just enjoy a song without turning it into "God Fest?" Jeez!

[LyndonKJohnson]

Deicide loves this song.

[kosk11348]

God doesn't need to be real in order for this to be a great song any more than the Force needs to be real in order for Star Wars to be a great movie.

[Dracorex13]

@kosk11348 Agreed. I've been an atheist and this is one of my favorite songs. It represents that "free love" movement in the 60's and 70's that is better than any other in Western music.

[hgunit133]

@kosk11348 you just put religion and star wars in the same category...

[chore222]

@hgunit133 and???

[thaidus671]

@hgunit133 it was a metaphor not a comparison.



[happionecom]

@kosk11348 Well said

[judgementgay]

well typed

[MrEandtheDUKE]

@kosk11348 but they both are real, because consciousness created them...even if we cant seem them...

in comparison; can a Dog understand the intricacies of the internet? does it even exist to a dog? answer is No...but does that mean it doesn't exist in the spectrum of the universe, it just means we are unable to comprehend at this moment in time....We are all one, conscious energy experiencing itself subjectively...

So high. lol

[rykera69]

@kosk11348 coulnt have put it better myself, and who has the time to look up shit just to troll. no one important, that i know

[D10BABY]

@kosk11348 i don't need to have understood your comment to say that song is fucking great

[Brenf66]

@kosk11348 The Force isn't real?!

[mrblock2013]

so much better then the punk remix

[kauannegata]

this song amazing

[DebiNga]

At the time this came out...this was during the free spirit movement...you would have had to live through this time to understand....

[Sambergler]

The only rock/gospel song sung by a Jewish guy. I danced my sixth grade dance to this with Howard Levin. Hey Howard, remember me??

[kauannegata]

Essa é uma das melhores musicas que eu já escutei

[oldmtnfart]

This is a hymn those of us that lived in the 70's can relate too. It will be played at my memorial service, if I have one.

[masterlee123]

The Rock song of all times

[Toddski718]

your missing the video... scroll back up!!!

[boykinhead1]

this is an interesting song because it represents a time period...it is not a particularly good song...but...for some reason ...well remembered...it is produced  by a studio and written by a studio player with studio musicians...not a band...no background...no road time...all corporate produced...but ...the sound struck a chord and every one remembers it...the song is very simple and contrived...

[diduhear]

@boykinhead1 that was a dumb little rant

[RichardLavin1]

Definitely a cool song, but this is one case where the singer really should have come up with a new name...Norman Greenbaum ...yeesh... :)

[CardinalPilotKY]

I was afraid of thunderstorms when I was a little kid, and invariably the AM radio station mom listened to would ALWAYS play this song during storms...and it would scare the bejeebers out of me!

[yesiamawizardjonny]

Atheism ftw

[zzzaaa09900]

@yesiamawizardjonny fuck atheism

[MrBaebel]

@zzzaaa09900 : Fuck religion&amerikka.

[zzzaaa09900]

@MrBaebel then why are you listening to religious songs? fuck atheists, no goal in life.

[diduhear]

@zzzaaa09900 How about to help others you self-motivated prick

[zzzaaa09900]

@diduhear fuck off you cunt. you deluded fuckwits come and preach your smug fueled shit, if you dont believe in God then that your problem.

[diduhear]

@zzzaaa09900 Well then you can rightfully fuck right off

[zzzaaa09900]

@diduhear no, assface! you piss you, you soft cunt.

[diduhear]

@zzzaaa09900 lol youre scared of dying guess what you die and you go in the ground deal with it

[zzzaaa09900]

@diduhear lol, little do you know. you will burn in hell. lol

[diduhear]

@zzzaaa09900 you must really love god or else want to get into heaven or something

[zzzaaa09900]

@diduhear why are you listening to thiis song?

[RunkkaajaApina]

@zzzaaa09900 I'm christian, not fundamentalist, but still a christian and I f*cking love this song. And I can't see any real reason why atheists shouldn't listen to this song and why they couldn't like this.

It's not only christian people's right to listen to this song.

And btw, Norman Greenbaum is a jew... think about that.

[zzzaaa09900]

@RunkkaajaApina who said im christian? these fucking atheist pricks coming here and preaching there garbage... obviously its a religious song..

[Swiftfoot55123]

@zzzaaa09900 actually some of us atheist do have goals and aspirations, i listen to this song 'cause i like it. i dunno why MrBaebel did.

[zzzaaa09900]

@Swiftfoot55123 my bad, not all of you are the same.

[kevw223]

good ole rock and roll



[Zeeebreee]

You live by faith not proof. The only way to please God is with faith. If you believe that Jesus died for you with faith then you will be saved. No proof needed.

[1beckydiaz]

@Zeeebreee Very well put my friend! I have faith, when my only child died I thought I was gonna die with grief but if it wasnt for my faith I dont know what would have happened to me! people always say to me "If my child died I would go crazy or die" well if god takes u to it, he will take u through it!!!! and he took me though it! so thank u for the beautiful words !

[HopelessReminder]

there are 17 people in the world that have no heart or soul i hate religion but a good song is a good song

[assthemagichat]

the only jesus comment i want to read is how "that creep can roll, man."

[Furtraderrim]

Even though there is no actual evidence that Jesus even existed and the overwhelming scientific evidence the refutes most the bibles claims, this song is still fantastic.

[Seiyanashi]

@Furtraderrim There's proof that Jesus the man existed, there's just no proof that he was supernatural.

[mrstevehartman]

@Furtraderrim SO WHAT. Then its impossible for the universe or us to exist also, RIGHT ?? No Chicken, No Egg. No Egg, No Chicken. Where did ANYTHING..... come from ?? Yes, its a great song....

[PFgreenisthecolour]

who could possibly dislike this song

[Wildnanna]

They will be playing this the day I am leaving this world one of my all time favorites never bored with this song.

[TerryVolcom]

g

ggg

[TerryVolcom]

gg

[definitedoll]

This song was used a few years ago for an airline.

[regenmacherinD412]

yeaaaaah....i want this song played at my funeral....

[BooBooBelinda]

@regenmacherinD412 just like millions of other people

[vonydare]

and remember kids...stay off that damn dope

[Iantorchwood94]

I redescovered this song with Mad Dog's second episode (with John Simm and Philip Glenister) :D

[starbreath100]

Get it?

[littlewolf60]

@starbreath100

[starbreath100]

Never been a sinner... I've NEVER sinned.. I've got a friend in JESUS.

[demostraviusVideo]

As much as I do not belive in god/jesus etc, this song is great!

[zoslond]

@christianswhobelievejesusasth­esonofgod

god doesn't have any children, nor any family for that matter

[atz123ify]

@zoslond hahaha i just imagined there being like aunt and uncle god, grandpa god and grandma god....and then there would be the god inlaws and cousins and whatnot. i never thought of that. i dont go looking for answers and i dont believe what most people say, but if there is a god, i think i agree that he/she/it doesnt have family or children. I've been told the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost are one in the same...It's all beyond what i care to know and i dont have the faith to believe..ya know?

[stuartrumsby2003]

I chose this as my parting song when i die!!!

[pelletgun12]

@dirtyoldman1100 Your gunna burn in hell you pagen scum

[MrJrwinter]

Regardless of him being a Jew means absolutely nothing. My mother's side is all German Jews and they all acknowledge Jesus as the son of God.

For the most part it is my believe the Jewish do not acknowledge Jesus as the son of god because it would contradict their book which has been the only thing that has held their culture together during all the persecution through out time.

I have not met one Jew that doesn't love a bacon double cheese burger or ribs for that matter.

[MrLabruce1]

yeah this Jewish fellow made a fortune off a song that celebrates Christian beliefs.What the hey Christ was a jew.

good song which makes a lot of sense.
