it was done by the Vaseline's first

Really? because we can't hear him saying that in the unplugged recording...

Yeah, it's by the Vaselines, but the original title was "Jesus Wants Me for a Sunbeam". Or at least that's the way it's listed on The Way Of The Vaselines.

@surfwaxafghani He says "This was written by the Vaselines. Well... It's a rendition of an old christian song I think. But we do it the Vaselines way" right before singing it! Why post anything if you haven't listened to the song properly?
