“Sympathy for the Devil” by The Rolling Stones
Few bands are as thriving and talented as The Rolling Stones. Honestly, we don’t know a single person who hasn’t heard their music. Still, not everyone knows what inspired their best hit, “Sympathy for the Devil.”
For this song, Mick Jagger made a unique account of historical events from Satan’s perspective, mentioning Jesus’ crucifixion, the Russian Revolution, World War II, and Kennedy’s assassination. Hearing this tune is almost like attending a six-minute-long history class!
