A 'Spirit' From the '60s That Won't Die
THE last time Norman Greenbaum had a hit record, Richard Nixon was in his first term as president. It was back in 1969 when Mr. Greenbaum released his most popular song, a guitar-drenched rock anthem called ''Spirit in the Sky.'' The tune climbed to No. 3 on the Billboard pop chart that year and went on to sell more than two million copies. It was Mr. Greenbaum's first Top 40 hit, and as it turned out, his last. ''Spirit in the Sky'' has become the song that won't die, a wailing rite of passage for two generations of rock fans, and more to the point, Mr. Greenbaum's 401(k) plan. Even though Mr. Greenbaum long ago signed away the publishing rights to his song, as the song's performer, he still receives a cut of the revenue. Each time ''Spirit in the Sky'' lands in a major movie or ad, he cashes a check for $10,000 or more. ONE-HIT WONDER -- Norman Greenbaum in the 1970s.; LIGHTNING STRIKES ONCE -- Norman Greenbaum, at home with his cat Oliver, struck gold with ''Spirit in the Sky.'' The song has been in a Nike ad, below left, and films like ''Wayne's World 2,'' below center, and ''Ocean's 11.''
