I vote for this one!!!

Nice set... Some I'm familiar with ... The first one by 'Maurinda' (is that correct?) - is very nice; as is the Gail Swanson version... great stuff.

thanks Nicos

Thanks for posting scottkeef I thought I knew all the Stones covers, Sandy must be one of the first who covered this song, it's from here "Reviewing the Situation" album from 1969

I like the David Byrne version, but there's no video for it.

You can listen to and/or download it here:
David Byrne _of the Talking Heads_ - Sympathy For the Devil.mp3 - 5.46MB


"As we say in England, it can get a bit trainspottery"

None. Every cover I've heard is just horrible.

Ozzy - bleah! Seems okay on paper, but I found it lamer than the G'n'R version!

of these youtube clips, Laibach is a HOOT! It's WAY over-the-top.
"Ven I saw eet was time for CHAAAANGE!"
No p#$$y-footing here, just a big satanic RIOT!

David Byrne/Talking Head did a good version.

Oddly, Natalie Merchant did a version. Not sure how she was influenced. Doesn't seem a likely candidate.

Pure Nazi-"rock". Might as well enjoy the real deal..
