Jesusland (song)

"Jesusland" was the second single from Ben Folds' 2005 album Songs for Silverman.

[1][2][3] The song captures Folds' dismay as he travels through middle America, witnessing the growing wealth and the commercialization of Jesus' message.

You know, 'There’s a billboard, there’s a McMansion, there’s a couple nice houses'... just trying to put together a montage that recreates the playing field as you have it.

[7] The track was slated for a UK single release in September 2005, but it never made it to store shelves.

The video for the single features Matt Lucas as a televangelist interspersed with scenes of a journey through what may well be "Jesusland" itself.
