Song of the day: Jane's Addiction - "Sympathy for the Devil" (The Rolling Stones cover)


The Rolling Stones' track "Sympathy for the Devil", which comes from their 1968's Beggars Banquet, is true classic rock song. It has been covered by many artists all over the world.

However, nobody probably has covered it the way like Jane's Addiction recently did. They completely stripped it down to its basics. Perry Farrell's vocals alongside Dave Navarro's acoustic guitar fits this track perfectly.

Reason why Jane's Addiction did this is soundtrack for TV series Sons of Anarchy entitled Songs of Anarchy: Vol 2. You can listen to their cover along with complete soundtrack here (embed code wasn't working for some reason...).

Also, check out the original version of the track and decide which one is better.
