The music video for "Sheep Go to Heaven" is animated in a style reminiscent of South Park, and features members of Cake dressed as a KISS cover band, playing in a sports bar. A disgruntled employee of a greeting-card company enters the sports bar with a machete, and massacres the crowd, sending the band to Heaven. Later, the employee is convicted, executed, and sent to Hell. The video was directed by Mark Kornweibel.[citation needed]
The song debuted on the Modern Rock Tracks (or Alternative rock) charts on February 20, 1999, peaking at the 16th slot, staying up for 14 weeks, and being the second highest ranking song of the album and the band’s fifth highest-ranking single ever.[5]
