Lyrics:
When I die and they lay me to rest
Gonna go to the place that's the best
When I lay me down to die
Goin' up to the spirit in the sky
Goin' up to the spirit in the sky
That's where I'm gonna go when I die
When I die and they lay me to rest
I'm gonna go to the place that's the best.
Prepare yourself you know it's a must
Gotta have a friend in Jesus
So you know that when you die
He's gonna recommend you
To the spirit in the sky
Goin' up to the spirit in the sky
That's where I'm gonna go when I die
When I die and they lay me to rest
I'm gonna go to the place that's the best

A Hindu family from a UK television show dancing to a song about Christianity written by an American Jew who did such a great job writing and performing the original song that even atheists love it.

Nothing can stop the birth of a song that the world is aching for.
I was obsessed with this as a kid. And KZread didn't exist back then, so I had wait around all day in front of the tv to catch it! And tried my best to do the dance!!

Song reminds me of my nan. She was Gareth Gates dinner lady at school and she would always talk about him. She is a Christian so this was always on when I was younger. She just passed away last week
One of the best comic relief songs ever. I don't know why they don't do them no more. Now they came came thanks to Paloma Faith!
Gareth Gates had in spades what they all crave, but only few truly have: The ultimate X factor! This clip is a shining example, I mean really: who could resist that charismatic smile?

He was 19 back then, right? But still he was hot and gorgeous.
I saw him recently at a 90s concert with a bunch of other artists and he hasn't aged a day! me and my mates fangirled so hard when he came on, the nostalgia hit us in the feels! 🥰😁 he's still fantastic

I've never heard of Gateth Gates, but I enjoyed this production a great deal. A wonderful satire on the original version, as well as a strong vocal and dance performance.
I am still completely in love with this song and Gareth Gates xo
i used to dance to this in my living room when i was a kid..... ohhhhh memories!!!
This is so much fun. Kumars are a great addition. I adore the song and came across to this version. Purrrrr fecto.Gareth Gates is sooo cute and sweet. Long live Norman Greenbaum King of the Lightning the Bottle! You are the best.
I really love this song. ❤️❤️❤️
Love Gareth Gates, brilliant cover 👍

I loved the Kumars! So funny!!!!
13 years ago we was driving to my grandads funeral and this happened to come on the radio so everytime I listen to it always brings back good memories missing you so much gramps. hopefully you have gone to the place that's the best x

I thought that the Kumars were fantastic! I have been accused of racism for liking them - NEVER by Asians, I might add - but they are genuinely funny. Why shouldn't we have a laugh with our friends from other cultures - they laugh at us too, especially during the cricket season. Love you guys!
Hey Gareth I hope you will upload videos from your Abundant Life Ministry. God bless you Brother 😇
If you grew up in 2000s, you would know the dance lmao
When I die and they lay me to rest Gonna go to the place that's the best When I lay me down to die Goin' up to the spirit in the sky Goin' up to the spirit in the sky That's where I'm gonna go when I die When I die and they lay me to rest Gonna go to the place that's the best Prepare yourself you know it's a must Gotta have a friend in Jesus So you know that when you die He's gonna recommend you To the spirit in the sky Gonna recommend you To the spirit in the sky That's where you're gonna go when you die When you die and they lay you to rest You're gonna go to the place that's the best Never been a sinner I never sinned I got a friend in Jesus So you know that when I die He's gonna set me up with The spirit in the sky Oh set me up with the spirit in the sky That's where I'm gonna go when I die When I die and they lay me to rest I'm gonna go to the place that's the best Go to the place that's the best
I love this because it has the Kumars in it
