I saw this video one time on some late night video show (MTV2?) and never saw or heard it again until one day post Katrina I was sitting in the Pub and Vj Brendan Thompson played it. I was *so excited* to finally see it again and get the name of the song. It’s still one of my favorite videos and everytime I hear the song it still makes me happy – just like when I heard it that time at the Pub.

This song will forever remind me of the time B-97 changed formats and played it for an entire weekend. Honestly, I don’t recall if it was when they switched TO all-talk or FROM all-talk but it will always remind me of when radio stopped being fun. Format changes, consolidations, corporate buy-outs. Meh. Best of times, worst of times and all that nonsense.

Regardless, it’s a terrible song and line dancing freaks me out.

I give mass amounts of credit to my brothers and sister for the variety of music I grew up with. My sister Kay was all about the Rolling Stones.

Sympathy For The Devil never gets old to me. I’ve listened to it hundreds of times. I sing and play air guitar along to it every time.

I love the lyrics, the drums, the “woo woo”s and those fucking solos. Such amazing tone, it’s the perfect song.
