THESE LYRICS!?! First Time Reaction to Rolling Stones - "Sympathy For The Devil"

[@neillschwartz3418]

This is one of the most amazing songs ever written. Very deep and meaningful. Historical and poignant. Love your reactions. ❤

[@daubreyjaneweirdsley]

Sympathy for the Devil was influenced by the decadent/symbolist 19th century French poet Charles Baudelaire's 'Les Fleurs du mal' - Flowers of Evil, based on a book given to Jagger by his culturally sophisticated, stunning inamorata, 60's femme fatale Marianne faithfull - 'The Master and Margarita', written during the Stalinist era by Russian author Mikhail Bulgakov. The story concerns a visit by the devil to the officially atheistic Soviet Union. The Master and Margarita combines supernatural elements with satirical dark comedy and Christian philosophy, defying categorization within a single genre. Many critics consider it to be one of the best novels of the 20th century, as well as the foremost of Soviet satires. Sympathy for the Devil is considered one of the 60's greatest counterculture songs of warning and should be viewed as a companion piece to the Stones apocalyptic Gimme Shelter, Street Fighting Man and Dylan's/Hendrix All Along the Watchtower. These song represent the revolutionary turbulence taking place in the West in 1968. Sympathy is a song of dread and foreboding that represents the dark side of the 60's and the frailty of human morality. The lyrics: 'I watched with glee While your kings and queens Fought for ten decades For the gods they made' A reference to The Hundred Years' War a series of armed conflicts between the kingdoms of England and France during the Late Middle Ages. As for Jagger's voice it's fabulous, perfect for the song, a mixture of hauteur, contempt, derision and mockery filtered through a camp Dylanesque Blues drawl; perfect for the character of Lucifer, 'A man of

[@wentibbetts7833]

Brilliant!

[@musiclover9361]

Fun fact: 'The Devil' of this song is you and me: humanity. EVERYTHING is OUR fault. We just like to scapegoat, so we invented the Devil.

[@FrogLegs313]

The kings and queens fighting the war for decades was referring to the Hundred Years War. Every reference in this song is accurate. The song asks a lot of questions about who is really responsible for the evil in the world. The devil's plea is that he didn't actually DO any of these things, rather he merely showed us the opportunity and allowed us to react however we saw fit.

[@art2736]

Basically, the Devil is tired of being blamed for all the evil in the world. He's letting you know at the end. Don't blame me, "you're to blame."

[@BigTimeRushFan2112]

Amen.

[@vapoet]

That is often the theme with any media focusing on the Devil. The book and miniseries Good Omens had a demon who had to do very little since humans were doing all the evil themselves. Humans have more imagination than any demon (Or angel). It was similar with the show Lucifer. The demons, angels and even Lucifer did not need to do evil or good things. More than anything else, the demons and angels tended to be incredibly dumb.

[@jamezkpal2361]

The devil merely stands in the shadows, always ready with an encouraging "woo, woo."

[@mikeg.4211]

The song's point is usually overlooked even by most reactors, which is sort of buried in the lyrics at the very end; namely, "I'll tell you one time. You're to blame."

[@jasonlouis697]

That was something that I love to see in different works. For instance, in Good Omens when Crowley says hell hasn't come up with anything that approaches what humanity does to itself - painful and so true.

[@smitisan4984]

The devil would say that, wouldn't he? Taking any part of the song at face value could be a mistake. Or maybe not...

I'd say this tune right here "Sympathy For The Devil" also played a very pinnacle point in the Stones life & music career my friend. SFTD was the song the Stones were playing @Altamont in '69 when a fan in the crowd was killed by the Hells Angels. AKA the end of the 60's. Just saying...

This is truly an amazing song that points out how humanity uses the devil as a fall guy to excuse our own inhumanity. Also, I had the chance to see The Rolling Stones back in May of this year. 60+ years and they're still excellent. Mick Jagger is also 81 years young, still singing and dancing like he's in his 20s. Definitely recommend you or anyone to see these guys live, especially who haven't had the chance as of yet!

To still be doing what they are doing at that age is astounding, they really are Rock's greatest band when it comes to touring, killing every time for 60+ years. No one has played to more people in their career. We did not see this coming back in the 60s, for damn sure.

Agree. Their best albums came out during the Mick Taylor years.

[@tombeyerlein3813]

I have to agree as to the albums, but the Stones had many tremendous singles during the Brian Jones era that were partially attributable to Brian's amazing musicianship. Also, this album (Beggars Banquet) is actually the final Jones-era album, though Brian's participation was spotty.

I'd also argue that Aftermath was a great album from the Brian Jones period.

There's actual footage of the Stones recording "Sympathy" at Olympic Sound in London. The sessions were filmed by French director Jean-Luc Goddard and featured in his 1968 film One Plus One, often known since as Sympathy For The Devil. There are clips on KZbin, pretty amazing.

[@markdecker6190]

Thanks Stacey, you are one of the first if not the first reactor to this song that I've come across who's taken the time to analyze the lyrics. Of course you nailed it because not only do you have a good sense and knowledge of history, you also get what Mick and Keith were saying in this song. I've heard of teachers using this song as a jumping off point to talk about historical events. You're right, it is a genius composition.

[@robertzurawiecki7837]

Almost exactly 30 years ago, on November 25th 1994, I was lucky enough to see the Rolling Stones live in Miami on their Voodoo Lounge tour. The concert was broadcast on I believe Showtime, so it was recorded, and a few years ago I was able to buy a CD/Bluray of the concert. There were many famous guest appearances as a result of the broadcast from such names as Sheryl Crow, Bo Diddley, and Robert Cray. For this song, a giant inflatable devil's head "peering" over the back of the stage looking at the band and the audience popped up. It was stunning and the song had the whole crowd of 80,000 or however much could fit in Dolphin Stadium (at the time named Joe Robbie Stadium) moving and shouting Woo! Woo! I will always treasure my memories of that night and am so glad they released it as Voodoo Lounge Uncut.

[@fzwilling]

Awesome reaction :) Don't forget Lucifer the Lightbringer was just a Fallen Angel, actually God's favourite, his "thing" is all about Free Will. He might tempt you with greed, pride, wealth, but he doesn't commit the evil rarely himself. Later on, starting in the Middle Ages, the church made him into this evil horned creature we know as the Devil/Satan nowadays. It's actually very interesting to read on the mythology and were Lucifer comes from.

[@Oliverdobbins]

17:23 I think your analysis of this song, lyrically speaking, is spot on. Something else I’ve always loved about this song is that the music has a sort-of ramshackle feel to it. Like none of the the individual instruments is playing something that fits in smoothly with what the others are playing. The song feels like it’s about to fall over itself at any moment, propelled along by the backing vocals while “Keef” adds just the right amount of lightning to the storm right at the end. You should try “You Can’t Always Get What You Want”. It’s yet another masterpiece (and much happier than Sympathy For The Devil and WAY happier than Paint It Black).

Stacey understands things well. If all the world's youth could have been given the same historical knowledge, perhaps we would all be a better species for it. Brilliant analysis Stacey!😊

[@andrewgr144]

Thanks for the video! I see that someone else has beaten me to it, but you now have an ethical-- nay, even spiritual-- obligation to react to "Gimme Shelter". Probably the single most iconic intro in the history of rock, and the rest of the song lives up to it!

[@SaintPhoenixx]

I love your enthusiasm for new music and you seem to nail the story or meaning behind them every time. This song is, as you guessed, about how people blame the devil for the evils of the world when all of it is done by us. Mick sings from the point of view of the devil or Satan and he mentions lots of atrocities from his perspective. "Who killed the Kennedy's? After all, it was you and me." It's basically the devil saying "I didn't kill Jesus, shoot JFK (and RFK), kill Czar Nicholas and do the French Revolution, it was everyone"

[@amusedmarine7402]

What got me hooked on this song was a TV show years ago where 1 of 2 friends died. NOBODY liked the deceased friend because he was mean and a shrewd business man. At the funeral, NO ONE showed up except the one friend, who was good man. Though his friend wasn't the nicest person, the good friend still mourned the loss.

I remember as a kid sitting with my dad in his truck listening to this tune. Right after the "get down," he was like "listen listen!" and I heard the bass for the first time as its own instrument. My ears and mind were opened. On top of that, the lyrics are a cautionary tale and a history lesson. This is one of my top 5 desert island songs.

*"and all the sinners saints"* - or, some who think they are saints, aren't. Also, the "fought for ten decades for the gods they made" was a reference to the 100 Years War, which was a religious conflict that ravaged Europe on and off for about a century. I think the sympathy part is "you all do terrible stuff, but I get all the blame" - especially when you take in the lyric near the end: "I'll tell you one time, you're to blame"

Well, he's their rhythm guitar player, but he's had his share of solos. basically they've always been more of a weave type of guitar band, where the lead and rhythm guitars weave around each other. But in the case of this album in 1968 and Let It Bleed in 1969, most of all the guitars are played by Keith because Brian Jones, the lead guitarist, was incapacitated. Keith was left alone with all the guitar duties, with a couple exceptions, Brian turned up to play the slide guitar in No Expectations and Mick Taylor took the lead guitar in Honky Tonk Woman
