i used to to think, without having ever heard the song, that 'jesus freak' was a cover version of that old song 'super freak' - the one that sounds like 'can't touch this'. I used to go around singing 'jesus freak jesus freak' to the melody. I don't know why. Later on when older I figured it would sound different but still liked my version. I finally heard the song last week, It sounds nowhere near what i had in mind!
