Spirit in the Sky
“I’m going up to the Spirit in the Sky - That’s where I want to go when I die…”, the words and music hum through the minds of anyone who has listened to top-40 radio in the past four decades. Music legend Norman Greenbaum penned and recorded the hit song “Spirit In The Sky” in late 1969, which rocketed to #1 in the U.S. and Great Britain. Named song of the year by Cashbox magazine in 1970, the single would go on to sell over two million copies.
