CONFUSED MYSELF!! | The Rolling Stones - Sympathy For The Devil (Official Lyric Video)(REACTION!) 

That was Brilliant

IKR LOL!!!

LOL. I thought...Jesus, no not Jesus, go the other way.

Right church, wrong pew.

At least he isn't an idiot, with no idea about history or the song title. God bless the American school system hahaha lmfao

One of the final lines says it all: “I tell you one time, you're to blame”

Exactly man

I think it’s a bit more nuanced than that. The devil admits that it was HE that “sealed His fate”, “laid traps for troubadours”, and the Kennedy’s were killed by “you AND me”. The devil tempts and deceives, but it is our choice to do his bidding. I don’t think he’s absolving himself of any responsibility- rather, he’s saying it takes two to tango.

@@keef7224 Bang on

Well said Bro !

So sad you don’t realize his influence on you

@@Lab-Rat religion is the worst

The Devil makes no one do anything....he's just merely there to suggest and tempt. The actions we take in life fall upon our own free will.

Best short-form summary of this song I've ever seen! Well done

I can’t understand how my mom doesn’t really remember this song, even when I played some of it for her - she was born in 1949 and I wasn’t born until 1990 - she was ALIVE when the band and the song were new.. It’s always been one of my favorites. I’m just glad I got to see them live back in 2005 when I was 15. Saw David Bowie the year before for my 14th birthday. They both were great, but Bowie was slightly better to me. Got to hand it to The Rolling Stones had a stage that moved into the center of the arena and then lifted them probably 30’ - 50’ in the air. Though it does make sense as one of their songs is “Get Off my Cloud”.

It’s the official lyric video from ABCO Music, who own the rights to all the Stone’s pre-1971 catalog. Their videos for Paint it Black and Gimme Shelter really annoy me because they get some of the lyrics wrong. 🤦🏼‍♀️ You’re right though, this one is really good!

Seems to be the popular format for official Stones videos...well, there older material anyway.

Show ya right

Its badass

Jack Bauer On the second verse the video says, “burns like a red coat carpet.” The correct line is, “burns like a red coal carpet.” It’s a little thing, but it does ruin the meaning of a good word picture.

Yeah man, considering I LOVE military history, this is also my fave lyric (I think It's referring to Rommel) .................RIP the fallen! Lest We Forget!

When they mention the General I imagine it’s probably Hans

@@Ianbos1 Rommel would have been the least likely German general this line is refiring to Field Marshal Ferdinand Schörner. He was a true sociopathic butcher who not only executed civilians but thousands of his own men and officers on trumped up charges.

@@texasforever7887 maybe my friend, although the lyric is General’ not ‘Field Marshal’ and I seriously doubt a Field Marshal would be found riding a tank. 🙂🙂🙂

@@Ianbos1 which is a type of general and also Rommel's actual rank. Why would Field Marshal Rommel represent the devil?

lol he said it at such a perfect time I felt like he was speaking to me lol

I can't stop Laughing I Swear Mr. Video is The Best At Reactions

@@MrVideo123 The devil's always talkin'. ;-)

I thought it was the “get down”. Not like 70s music get down. More of an 80s hood get down😅 Just sayin

there is devil in all of us,,,humans are imperfect, never will be perfect, we do the best we can

@@alansmith7626 .Yes..But the old Testament god so called chosen people are satanic, communist ..They have conquered the west n world...They want Esau the white-man dead

Nic Restrepo 💯

THE SAME PEOPLE WHO KILL JESUS KILLED THE CZAR...SO CALLED gods chosen people

Poppie & The stable You are wrong read Revelation Jesus speaks of these Jews and calls them imposters. The true chosen Jewish people are not Satanic. Get educated in the word it may save your soul. Jesus said when asked by his apostles many go to HELL few go to Heaven

It's about Government suppression. Listen to the lyrics. Completely Political . Has absolutely nothing to do with Religion. Listen again!

Right First line Been around Century's

@@peggygallagher5802 The song is suggesting that the devil is responsible for all these things. The influence of evil upon the world manifests in things like war. Rock artists seem to think it is cool to bring the devil into everything. The meaning is clear. I think your answer was prompted by you hating religion. It miss fired because I am not a religious person. I don’t like it at all.

@@briganfree3656 I don't hate "religion". I'm a disciple of Christ. I live and love as if all are my sisters and brothers. Certain "religions" having been corrupted, believe in OT values, they worship Gold, gifts and, of course money. I value each and every individual as they are, who they are and wherever they are in their life's situation. When a "religion" turns you away from your true purpose to create unity and harmony yet hatred or division becomes it's message, you need to ask yourself, "Who am I surrounding myself with?" Peace 💜🙏✝️

Yes, both of these, do both of these

The Rolling Stones: they have a lot of hits. But the deep cuts are where it’s at with them. Gimme Shelter and You Can’t Always Get What You Want are indeed awesome songs. But on the same album that you’ll find those songs, you’ll also find Let It Bleed (title track of the album, just a great chill blues rock track), Midnight Rambler (a fantastic blues groove), and Love In Vain (an almost country reinterpretation of a classic blues song by the OG blues man Robert Johnson). For every Satisfaction and Jumping Jack Flash (two other Rolling Stones hits), you’ll find two or three songs like Happy, Star Star, Can’t You Hear Me Knocking, Sweet Virginia, All Down The Line, and Rip This Joint. This band is a rabbit hole WELL WORTH THE TIME to go down.

@@ExileOnDaytonStreet stones the greatest, their sound was so diverse yet its own! Tops(tattoo you) has to be my favorite from the stones

Gotta throw ‘Beast of Burden’ up in there, somewhere.

Gimme Shelter and Can’t You Hear Me Knocking are my faves from them

Exactly!

It was the greatest trick of religion to convince people that the devil exists so they can blackmail people into doing what religion demands from them. Otherwise they would go to hell - where the devil resides. And yet - no hell nor heaven nor god has ever been proven. But people still fall for that lie and raise their children to believe in that fairy tale and "just have faith". Such a cheap and yet powerful marketing strategy for a power tool, blinding the humans for thousands of years. It also has an inbuilt safety device - don't listen to criticism of religion, that's the "devil" speaking to you. Or rather your reason and common sense, labelled as "devil". If you pay attention, every religion calls any criticism against it motivated by the devil. If that's not waking you up, I don't know what will.

I have always interpreted Jesus' "moment of doubt and pain" to be when he was on the cross and cried out 'Father ! why have you forsaken ME?!?" Because I've heard many a sermon how it is a sin to doubt in God, therefore; Jesus was not without sin. He was a sinner just like the rest of us. Every "pastor/minister/priest/reverend I've had this discussion with , invariably say the same thing "well, it was only a few seconds or a brief minute of doubt" as if a small lie is any less a lie than a big lie.

@@TheLorendel I always thought it was about when he wandered the dessert and was taunted by the devil, but I mean given the follow up lyric about pilate you’re probably right

@@cottonysensation3723 Yes, I`m sure the moment on the cross is what Jagger meant.

That's what that chronic'll do to ya!!

WILD HORSES 🐎

i think he needs to put the weed away

@@T.N.S.A.F. lol...Nooooo....I love v this guy!

I'm dumbfounded that it took him so long to figure it out. If he loses any more brain cells he'll be eligible for a handicap license plate.

@@T.N.S.A.F. that must be some goood shit 😆

Right theme but wrong side.

Thank you for reminding me. Incredible tune. Christopher Michael, my husband hung himself...he was only 46, 9 years younger than I. He didn't want to "Be a Beast of Burden"...and yes, he gave up.

Yeah! My 10 yr old nephew has this in one of his games. When I was driving and "Paint it Black" game on...he asked "who sings this and what is the name if the song! Convert!

I loved the piano cover they did in season one of Westworld on HBO. The original is still my favorite Stones song.

Love this song

That's the nature of his game!

His greatest trick is convincing people he doesn’t exist.

@@mumbles215 The churchs’ greatest trick was convincing people he or his invisible father does!

Hey, it’s just a song.

Yessss

He's right, you know.

Is there any chance that you could do a reaction to Pink Floyd Comfortably Numb live at Pulse, the greatest guitar solo ever. Thank you in advance. 👍

Yep😢

Someone else said it's the train we're all riding, I think that's more likely..

No its not

Yep God's brightest angel🤔😢

@Immanuel Kant Read that, too. Might be biased when it comes to the Devil. As I said, I was highlighting a perspective, not quoting scripture, or espousing a religious view.

Nope

Yup, now they are saying Corona

No. That’s NOT what they were expressing🙄 Humans ALWAYS have choice! Lucifer doesn’t MAKE you do anything; just revels in your wrong choices

@@source5729 Oh, by the way, I used the term "wants". As a matter of fact, I don't see the word "make" in any part of my post.?. God bless...

He don’t.

Isaiah was actually referring to King Nebuchanazzer, not Satan.

@@mrb532 No, Michael, he definitely wasn't speaking of Nebuchanazzer - not unless you are contending his name is also Lucifer. Here's Isaiah 12 from the KJV: "How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!" So, clearly it was Lucifer being spoken of, Nebuchanazzer being merely one of many rulers of "the nations" weakened by Lucifer's fall and also because the name "Lucifer" is expressly stated therein.

@@rodciferri9626 Lucifer isn't a personal name. It means morning star. Read the context of the quote. He is speaking of Nebuchanazzer.

@@mrb532 Of course Lucifer is a personal name (in fact my own name derives from it) - it is Satan that is not a personal name. Furthermore, it's stated expressly in the verse that it is Lucifer who is referred to and you still think it is some mortal king that fell from heaven and not an angel? I don't know what preacher you are listening to - but the plain words of the Bible prove you are wrong about that one and it makes no sense from a biblical perspective in any event.

@@rodciferri9626 Isaiah wasn't speaking literally. He is saying that Nebuchanazzer fell from his glory like a morning star. Here is an article about the subject if you're actually interested in the truth bible.org/article/lucifer-devil-isaiah-1412-kjv-argument-against-modern-translations

It’s the devil speaking, yes, but about the horrors he watched the human race commit by their own free will, implying to stop blaming him for all the wrongs in this world.
