After he burned, we called the metal endoskeleton Terminator Jesus. The new one is known as 5-dollar foot-long Jesus.
A.K.A. "About Yea Big Jesus"
Aka Hug me Jesus.
Not as easy to name as Big Butter Jesus/Touchdown Jesus was.
😄
That sounds evil. (like if it was a statue of Satan)
@@Trismegustis I want you to know you made my day today. "About-yea-big Jesus" is going into my book of favorite phrases.
This NEVER fails to bring me joy. I'll forget about this song for months and years at a time, then out of nowhere I'm singing big butter Jesus and have to find the video. Love that he added that last verse too!
The same happens to me. I heard this song on the Bob and Tom show years ago, and I caught this stuck in my head a few days ago! However, I just now watched this video with the new verse, and I about died! So funny! I'll still be singing this song when I'm 80 years old!
@@amandasoberano548 olo lol I'll o
Me too.
Right same here
100% Agree
"It burned to its frame wire... in a giant grease fire." May be the greatest piece of American musical rhyming of all time.
I live nearby, we always laugh that the Hustler store across the freeway was left totally untouched.😂
That's a good one, but I gotta go with "I think it's Jesus' father who's in charge of the lightning."
As some who would travel from Cincinnati to Dayton monthly I saw this thing a lot. We used to call it, "touchdown Jesus". The new version of the statue has its arms reaching out in front. We now call it the, "I caught a fish this big Jesus". It was also though it was ironic that there was a Hustler Store at the same exit off the highway.
I love when entertainers really look like they're having fun. I can imagine it gets tough to find any amusement in something you've done dozens, if not hundreds of times, but when you can smile like that, it's inspiring.
I found this video completely by accident and regret nothing
Crusadiator YEAH TOAST
Amen
I bet "Oleo Lord" just sounded like yodeling to a lot of people. Very clever way to sneak in another butter reference.
I actually always assumed he was just saying "Holy, Oh Lord." Oleo is super clever there, actually!
I love this song, and as someone who had to deal with Big Butter on a regular basis, and now his replacement, Five Dollar Footlong Jesus, it makes me giggle every time. XD
"Oleo-Lord." Best. Line. Ever.
My favorite is "I Can't Believe It's Not Jesus". LOL
Mr. Banks!! my mom has been telling me about the statue for years. we Googled to research the nickname 'big butter' and discovered you!! and I can't remember a time we've laughed so much! my mom has had a crazy year health wise, so seeing her laugh til she is in tears is such a gift to our family. by now if I whisper big butter in her ear or hold up a butter container in a store that wonderful laughter comes right back. so from the bottom of my heart, thank you thank you thank you! we look so forward to seeing you in person one of these days. again, thanks for the joy you've given us. it means everything : ))
Mr. Heywoodbanks, you missed a great opportunity. See I live close to there and we all joked after it was the frame we were gonna put a sheet over it and call it the holy ghost from now on.
I think "Oleo ghost" might be better.
😄
The last verse is grammy worthy 😂😂👍👍 🥀
Seen it in real life (both statues), as I live rather shortly away, and I can say that this song is brilliantly accurate, especially the getting into heaven with a 90 part. I would have to be in a real desperate situation to be convinced to even drive in that area, these days. Kudos, man, kudos.
I never understood the "getting into heaven with a 90" part.
I hope the grading curve is Kindly
You get to heaven with a 90
Norbert Buehmann Since making graven images is a sin per the Ten Commandments, even if you kept the other 9, you’d only have a 90%- requiring a grading curve to pass 😂 calling out the hypocrisy of religious folk who pick and choose what is and isn’t a sin.
@@thebookofbabalon I know this comment is a few years old, but I'd like to point out that while the Bible does say not to make graven images, it is not one of the ten commandments.
@@DrSauce Exodus 20:4 KJV: "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image…"
I remember all of it quite well😂. That statue caught fire. My brother lives in Monroe he ain't lying about seeing it from the highway lol .
We thought it looked like it was made of cheese, so we called it cheesus
LMAO
It would be interesting if there really was a statue of Jesus made of cheese, and it had something that looked like crust.
I don't think I need to say anymore.
Still remember the morning on Bob and Tom when this was reported
Had just left my son's house outside St. Louis in 2007. I was in a traffic jam on Interstate 44 and listening to Bob & Tom... thought I would be carted off if anyone saw me laughing so long and so loud. I still love it after all these years!!!
Holy Oleo!
We just called it touch down Jesus.
Same
Touchdown Jesus is the Jesus mural at Notre Dame in South Bend Indiana.
@@thundercount9523 the statue was called Touchdown Jesus more often than Big Butter because it looked like it was a football referee signaling a touchdown. I never heard it called Big Butter until after it burned down.
I cant drive by it without singing it all these years
OMG , i mean OH JESUS my little sister just called to say she was driving to Dayton for a holiday visit and just had to let me know she saw THE BBJ live by the expressway. I was unaware of his newly resurrected status. (no pun intended BBJ) I did not even know about the new verse. We are both beyond tickled and she can cross one off her bucket list. What a blessing!
I think of this song every time I'm in the butter aisle.
Me for most of the song: It's cute. Kinda funny
Him: (sings) Big Fireball Jesus
Me: (dies laughing)
This is genius!!!
Building a statue of Jesus out of flammable material is the opposite of genius.
Every not-genius will have his/her day... Unfortunately, it wasn't that day.
Oh Heywood, thar's only one place you're headed since you added the new verse
I just drove by this today, i wasnt thinking about it but then i saw the statue, then i saw trader world, then solid rock church, and then i yelled "its big butter Jesus!"
I was disappointed that the new statue didnt look like butter though.
Thank you Elliot!
Heywoodbanks you are awesome
So this is why my dad pointed at a tub of Country Fresh Butter and, through his laughter, wheezed "Big Buttered Jesus. Can't believe it's not Jesus!"
.
.
.
This is amazing 😂
I'll admit, as a teenager (I think I first heard this song in 2007 or so while on the way to high school) I'd always remembered it as "holy oleo" instead of "oleo lord' and I kinda prefer my misremembered version.
This song makes me smile every time I hear it. I just shared it again on Facebook. It's the best ear worm to have! If somebody says something you don't agree with, just say "Oleo Lord" and you'll quickly end the conversation and have them wondering, "WTF is he talking about?" "... Sweet cream Jee-zuss ..."
Big Fireball Jesus!!😂😂 and as a former KFC employee of 7 years every time I hear extra crispy Jesus I laugh so hard I Cry
I take pride in saying that I saw him live 2 years ago. It was a masterpiece. Same place that this performance was, in Ann Arbor, MI. Still classic.
Went to Ohio today, from Indiana. Saw a flyer for Traders World and it reminded me of this song. Been stuck in my head all day. Too funny! Thanks!
This is my favorite xtian song of all time.
Passed the Jesus statue this past weekend, and I played the big butter song for him. It’s a new family favorite!! The new verse is GREAT!!!
Never get tired of that song! 😂
Next time I go this way to Illinois, I am going to make it a point to go this site and see the location that inspired this song!
GOD THAT WAS 2012? My god I thought it was so much more recent.
There's a new statue up now, we need a new verse!
Resurrected Jesus!
I told my mom I was going to end up like you, and she said "that's not bad"
Best song ever! I live just 20 mins from the Big Buttter Jesus!
rewatching this and him mentioning Traders World made me realize that three months ago, we drove past the big butter Jesus church. They have a new Jesus, but it's not made of butter
He was absolutely the best thing ever to grow up listening to.
I actually recently drove by it. Once I figured out what it was, I freaked out. I was literally thinking of this song driving through southern Ohio. I never would've thought I actually would've seen it.
holy smokes its jesus. . . . . melting over the floor
Since I first heard this joyous song! Laughter rapture, still fills me, ten years on.
A friend gifted me, your art, while I was recovering from a house party. He knew I'd chuckle, thanks for making Art, man, much appreciated! ⚡
Heywood is a genius!
I pass this all the time and I play this every. single. time.
I'm a Christian and I LOVE this.
I have loved your work since I first heard you on Bob and Tom! Sing it, Brother!
i love you heywood ... you are one of the uniquely funny comedians around and this song and toast just crack me up every time i hear them... well done
Your something . . Seen you in Lansing mich. at the comedy club 1999-2000 and I've seen Dayton's Jesus . . Glad you made light off it
Discovered you today via my daughter-in-law. My life has changed. There's a huge mega church just outside of Memphis we have renamed, "Six Flags Over Jesus".
I just understood the golden calf joke, and now I think that line goes underappreciated
THANK YOU, Heywood.....for so many years of laughs and smiles!!! If I'm down, all I have to is play your songs.....and I'm reset!
Love Heywood, caught his show in Peoria years ago. Laughed till my sides hurt Rin Lat Rep!
Happy belated anniversary to fireball Jesus!
so I'm in THAT part of youtube again
+Maisie Young Only the funnier part of youtube
This guy lacks sense of humour
the good part of youtube, you mean
If you think that this is not funny then you are not in your right mind
BRILLIANT!!!
This is my favorite Christian song tbh
Brilliant!
I love his voice!💜
LOVE.....I'd never heard the new part! Too funny.
Got me to sing along.❤😂😂
I left this paused at 5:26 and walked away, and that was the first thing a saw when I started my computer when I got back.
As a local, we called the original monstrosity Touchdown Jesus. And yes, Terminator Jesus once it burned down to the frame, and now 5-Dollar-Footlong Jesus. And when driving by, as we did today, one never fails to notice version 2.0's very prominent lightning rod 🤣... and remember this song.
Lost it at, "Opa! Jesus"
I want to know what that's supposed to mean.
@@nbuehster Ever had "saganaki" at a Greek restaurant? Try it and you'll understand!
@@stephenweeks6288 OMG now that you said that... I get the Opa reference so much clearer... LMAO Flaming Buttery Greek Cheese... Opa!!! HAHAHAHAHAHHA
I wanted to buy the land across the highway and make my own stature, of a hand with a paper triangle football
Just heard your song this morning It’s On the way to work On I75, Dyt represent
Was it on the radio?
@@Heywoodbanks yes 104.7 bob and Tom show
I didnt think they were playing it anymore
OMG the funniest song in the christian world today!
I live in TX and my grandparents lived outside Pittsburgh, PA. We’d drive up there about twice/yr. I remember being in a traffic jam when I was young and seeing His arms being hauled in there when they built it. Then seeing the completed product for years afterward. The first time I heard this ‘song’, I nearly had a heart attack laughing so damn hard
If you don't love Haywood, your soul is dead. I am from Kokomo, and I will never forget Haywood trying to buy the humane Indian arm.
NOMADdaf oh my gosh, that thing was the creepiest soup starter I ever saw!
Heywoodbanks stop,you're killing me.
In eighth grade my best friend and I showed this to our religion teacher...she thought we were insane after that.
its been almost 7 years! please come back :(
(i guess)
OMG !!! The last verse is just gold !!!!!
NEVER GETS OLD!!!
This new last verse made me cry I laughed so hard XD OMG dying
I can never hear this enough. Sometimes the funniest jokes are 💯 percent true.
LMAO in Tampa! Grew up in Westland & used to drive past that monstrosity while heading up during my Nashville daze. The replacement is more hideous...
I used to see that damn statue every year on my way to mayhem fest. I never knew what happened to that thing... I never thought I would know either
Big Butter Jesus!!!!
My best friend brought me here, if you see this, I love it.
I haven't heard the last verse before. It is perfect.
I have a friend who was a firefighter for the city that responded to the 911 calls. Every year on the anniversary of the fire they post pics of their pagers from that night ("Engine requested Jesus statue on fire"), links to the most absurd press conference you've ever seen (reporter: was this an act of God? Fire chief: I'm not prepared to answer that question), and just generally dunk on the whole situation. It's been 15 years and it's still funny
My favorite song - ever.
This song isnt religious. Its about a a big butter fire in the shape of jesus. It is hilarious to me. Very catchy
The new line made me laugh so much!
God has a sense of humor even if others don't! ; )
Jesus what a great song
"But i think its Jesus's father...who's in charge of the lightning..." dying
Dude you are hilarious, Gott nytt år y'all.
I saw it before it burned. hard to describe how it was. I wonder, when it was first designed if the construction guys laughed after the plans were presented.
Was a really cool statue too
I blast this at 5AM every Sunday biking my way to work, to get back at everyone for the 7AM church bells.
This I absolutely love. A+ sir.
You are sooooo right!
you are a genius my friend
Love this song
I love this song... and all your songs... I think we should honor you Heywood... we should TOAST you for this one for sure ;) I just shared your genius with someone who posted a meme about toast and spreading the word of Heywood!! They love it and their friends are hooked now too LOL All puns in my comments are for sure intended :P
Must get hot in that glass house of yours!
😂😂😂
I knew the guy who owned the property across from the church. He would always joke about putting up giant feet on the other side. It's kind of sad that he never got around to it.
s6thgaming Actually thats my joke that Ive been telling since I wrote the song
***** You came up with that one? Huh. Small state!
Great Song. Love it.
4:11. I've found my yearbook quote
