The lyrics of a bizarre disco song about Jesus Christ known to a 1970s Jenny mentioned “Herod cold”. (PROSE: Morning After)
Behind the scenes
There are two important Herods in the New Testament: Herod the Great, who orders the Massacre of the Innocents in an attempt to avert the advent of Jesus, and his son Herod Antipas, who orders the execution of John the Baptist and (in Luke) also plays a part in Jesus's own. Both Herods are historically-attested personages, regardless of diverging opinions on the historicity of the Gospels. It is unclear which of the two Scott Sanford intended to reference.
