@@christineenright7491 I don’t know that’s a pretty compelling committed performance by Mick. Let’s not confuse the real Jim Morrison with the movie. He did a lot of just standing there. And he would not face the audience for a long period as well. Jim has some amazing live performances but Mick transformed into the devil for you on stage in front of Lennon. So…
@michaelperry9580 I can't find my original comment which I made awhile ago, but I can't imagine saying anything about Morrison in relation to this video.
Imagine if they used autotune and loops they would blown everyone’s acid laced minds... I can’t even imagine what that would sound like. Hell just try and imagine the stones with 808s.
The message behind the lyrics is so deep. I have it as a rule of life. You have to know the devil to fight the devil. If you dont know it, it will lay your soul to waste.
They have always been an unique band. They have experimented with different worldly instruments, like the East Indian sitar and now African drums. I will always love the Rolling Stones. Their music is so timeless.
Multiple takes filming this song. Producer asked for one more take at 5:15 am. Mick talked with the band and agreed to one, and only 1 more take. They nailed it, this is considered the best version by Mick and band.
did you see John & Yoko dancing in the crowd. was this an omen? this song has stood the test of time. absolutely timeless. & Mick is as gorgeous today as he was then. talk about a video worth a million words
So sad to hear that Charlie Watts has passed away. The Rolling Stones will definitely never be the same without him. RIP Charlie. Tell Brian Jones we said hi!
They already were not the same as Brian passed away and was member no more. ....Think this was much more a tragedy dieing at such a young age. He was the most talented of the Stones and a great musician. Mick and Keith wanted to lead the band although he was the creator.
And also a perfectionist. Sympathy For The Devil was repeated about ten times for Rock'N'Roll Circus... Not satisfied with the final results (some say Jagger was jealous of Roger Daltrey), the movie stood unreleased for 28 years...
he was high as a kite. but if you want to see really crazy time look up The movie "Gimme Shelter" when the rolling stones had the hell's angels as security for the concert. better yet just watch the scene when sunny phones up the next morning pissed off at the band. you will be on the floor laughing out loud.
To think that these guys are still performing at a high level and selling out every concert is beyond amazing. Probably the only band ever that over the years rocked kids and their great grandparents in person.
To think this is from a concert in 1968 just blows me away! Thanks to all the Rolling Stones for the fantastic music all these years it has helped me get through life's ups and downs.

SO much more talent and cool people back in that generation this era blows! I never loved The Rolling Stones growing up but looking back on all these groups I realize now how beyond talented and gifted they were...legends. 🤘🏾
Their best music was whilst Brian Jones was with the band. All the early stuff and all the instruments he played gave them a lot more sophistication. After he died, the band stuck to mainly rock, rather than their early blues influences.

I guess you're only a fan of the Stones, and not Rock-n-Roll. This was 1968. The late 60s and early 70s was heyday of Rock-n-Roll: Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd, Queen, The Jimi Hendrix Experience, The Beatles, The Eagles, The Who, The Doors, The Ramones, Cream, Blind Faith... Sounds like you think there's another time where there were bands much better than the Stones. What time was that? Now?
This performance was at the end of the movie, and was filmed after midnight. The band, film crew were pretty spent by then. A few even suggested they all get an hour or two of sleep before filming the final segment. Mick Jagger reportedly was adamantly opposed to the idea.
John Lennon, Yoko Ono, and Pete Townshend in the audience. Love these people! Written in 1969 after Kennedy brothers were killed. I shoplifted this album when I was 15. Oops, I owe Mick $10.
Don't know his name, but would love to know. I could be wrong. But isn't he the same conga player that played in the Traffic song, The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys?
My sister is a huge Stones fan. She told me this song sounded like nothing else when it was released. Imagine being 15 years old and hearing this for the first time - in 1968?
I just have to say, you Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones molded our life in the ´60 , when we weren´t able to feedback you and say how every weekend was so special with girls and friends , partys and a life in Color all because you !! I remember that friday when we bought your LP with this big song in side A, and preparing together in friends house hearing your song before departing for the party. And to know that the Maracas / Rattles were because a Venezuelan guy makes me Proud !! We were out of your tours area, but here in Venezuela / Latinamerica, we just love your music and find it boost our soul to move on and make this world better for all every day ! Thanks for existing and all you do and did for the World !! Your songs and you will live for ever, YOU WILL NEVER DIE !! Excited to after more then 60 years be able to write you !! And everybody to read it !! Unique !! Didn´t tried it before !! Hope it reach you !!Jorge Alfonzo / Valencia / Venezuela
Don't get enough credit?? Dude, what are you on, my friend? I'd like some! 😁 Seriously, they are EASILY considered by most to be one of the top 2 or 3 co-songwriters of all time. Especially when discussing classic rock, or 1960's counterculture. Second only to maybe Lennon/McCartney and often considered above them when specifically discussing classic rock. Also, second to Lennon/McCartney, they are the most SUCCESSFUL songwriting duo. That's just a simple fact. So not enough credit for you? Or do you just not really know what you're talking about? If the latter is true, well no worries mate; you obviously are at least a casual fan if not more, so you're off to a good start! 👍😁👍
I think you can get pretty close to objectivity by saying they aren't simply because all of their their albums aren't brilliant cover to cover. The same can be said of other great bands like Floyd or Zeppelin. The icky band that ever did that was The Beatles. That's why they're the best, plain and simple.
Best song of Rock for me. It’s not only guitars, words or story, it’s also Mike. He’s like this but he ain’t worst, he differently has a place in the world where the rules sings like madness.
Sympathy for the devil is quite simply one of the greatest songs ever written. If you understand history then you’ll understand this song. Absolutely amazing.

I am Robertt Charpentier, age 76, a Nam U.S. Army combat veteran from the 1st Infantry Division. After getting out of the army in 1969, I moved to Honolulu and saw the Stones in concert in 1970. At one point, Jagger was wagging his ass at me, while is was in the 2nd row, and I blurted out loudly, "Jagger you're insane!" and in an instant retort Mick looked directly at me and in a Cockney accent he said, "I know I am!"

This is such a good track all these years later. One of the most iconic Rock tracks of all time, and the way it is performed in this case is true showmanship. The whole thing. A band that was coming of age, but still plays to packed audiences more than 50 years later. Just Brilliant.
The Stone had been "of age" for several years already when this performance was recorded and filmed. The Beatles and the Stones both came out with their first double albums in 1967, _Sgt. Pepper_ and _Their Satanic Majesties Request._
I'm glad to see someone in the comments that recognizes the Stones, it really pains me to see all these kids making ridiculous comments about this "amazing new band"
This song is amazing in many aspects: It's one of popular music's best songs ever recorded, it's an amazing dance song, and it also features Keith Richards' best guitar solo.
in my mid 40s, i grew up with this through my parents and i enjoyed the 80s, mick, david bowie, freddy, ozzy, lita ford, alice cooper, its nice being on the younger side of gen x baby!! our taste in music is vast, even some techno music lol
I'm one of the biggest fans of The Who you'll find and on behalf of Who Nation: this performance is absolutely incredible! When I was young we always played the "this band is better than that band" game. But from the perspective of a 55 year old: they're ALL great! Be thankful you were alive during the time frame when bands like the Rolling Stones, The Who, Led Zep, etc were kicking ass live onstage!
Fantastic to see the original members performing this iconic song live! I was 9 years old when this “circus” came to town. Unfortunately, it wasn’t my town, and it was past my bedtime.
This is the difference between the musicians of that era and the so called musicians of today,.. back then they actually felt it running through every fiber of their body. And it's vids like this that show it through and through. Nobody could fake this shit😋

There was always that moment in their show when Keith turned around to Charlie and they grin at each other. That's when you knew that at that moment, all is well
Kind of like Ox of the The Who.

Sounds like you think there's another time where there were bands much better than the Stones. What time was that? Now?
@jakubchrobry3701 nope never really got into the stones. Or led zep for that matter. Was more into ozzy than anything else.

One of the greatest performances in Rock history.
So agree with you. Never a more high octane show as Jagger did here. Don't really like the stones but this was mesmerizing. Long live amphetamines!
Certainly one of the great lectures. Fleurs du Mal stuff.
this is disco
This performance was at the end of the movie, and was filmed after midnight. The band, film crew were pretty spent by then. A few even suggested they all get an hour or two of sleep before filming the final segment. Mick Jagger reportedly was adamantly opposed to the idea.
zSo hard to watch them knowing Charlie is gone :(
John Lennon, Yoko Ono, and Pete Townshend in the audience. Love these people! Written in 1969 after Kennedy brothers were killed. I shoplifted this album when I was 15. Oops, I owe Mick $10.
That’s a great little anecdote.
ha! i only wish i was there to shoplift a copy with you
JFK was assassinated in '63. Bobby was June 6, 1968. The song was recorded June 4-10, 1968.
Im with ya brother I remember when it came out .
Due to inflation, you owe him $70.
That Conga drummer is brilliant.
It lends the tone of the whole song.
That’s gotta be Rocky
Hey, I made and animated video of sympathy for the devil using A.I. Wanna check it out? th-cam.com/video/FcUjGP3498E/w-d-xo.html
Don't know his name, but would love to know. I could be wrong. But isn't he the same conga player that played in the Traffic song, The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys?
@@gregory571 Rocky Dijon
Man he earned his pay that day. He kept that beat going the whole song…a marathon conga player.
This song def gets you going!! 👍👍👍
Long live the Rolling Stones!

One of the best bands around. I'm 71 and still listening from way back.
68 and would rather be old and hearing the greatest music, than being young and hearing what they call music today
Me,too! I am 62 years old.That's not old!
Same age like me.I hear this from the Philippines,small island.A masterpiece.

There will never be another Mick Jagger. In his youth, he was a force of nature.
He still is an awesome and amazing performer none can compare!

I believe that he's still alive.
@@ericlehman6841 Yes, he is and still performing at 80. In the mid-1960s his live performances were incredible.

My sister is a huge Stones fan. She told me this song sounded like nothing else when it was released.
Imagine being 15 years old and hearing this for the first time - in 1968?

The Rolling Stone are so amazing Mick is unreal! I saw them in '89 Steel Wheels Tour in Atlantic City. Who would have ever thought.
I just have to say, you Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones molded our life in the ´60 , when we weren´t able to feedback you and say how every weekend was so special with girls and friends , partys and a life in Color all because you !! I remember that friday when we bought your LP with this big song in side A, and preparing together in friends house hearing your song before departing for the party. And to know that the Maracas / Rattles were because a Venezuelan guy makes me Proud !! We were out of your tours area, but here in Venezuela / Latinamerica, we just love your music and find it boost our soul to move on and make this world better for all every day ! Thanks for existing and all you do and did for the World !! Your songs and you will live for ever, YOU WILL NEVER DIE !! Excited to after more then 60 years be able to write you !! And everybody to read it !! Unique !! Didn´t tried it before !! Hope it reach you !!Jorge Alfonzo / Valencia / Venezuela

There's a reason this band has succeeded through generations.
To display their freedom in front of the public , inspired , follows.
They’re alive
Golly gee! Is there? Could you share it with us all oh holder of secret information!?!?!?
Mick and Keith don’t get enough credit for there genius song writing. To me the greatest band ever.
Don't get enough credit?? Dude, what are you on, my friend? I'd like some! 😁 Seriously, they are EASILY considered by most to be one of the top 2 or 3 co-songwriters of all time. Especially when discussing classic rock, or 1960's counterculture. Second only to maybe Lennon/McCartney and often considered above them when specifically discussing classic rock. Also, second to Lennon/McCartney, they are the most SUCCESSFUL songwriting duo. That's just a simple fact. So not enough credit for you? Or do you just not really know what you're talking about? If the latter is true, well no worries mate; you obviously are at least a casual fan if not more, so you're off to a good start! 👍😁👍
The stones are great but pink floyd is the best band EVER
when NIcky was with them, possibly...
@@solomonkane6442 Just: no
I think you can get pretty close to objectivity by saying they aren't simply because all of their their albums aren't brilliant cover to cover. The same can be said of other great bands like Floyd or Zeppelin. The icky band that ever did that was The Beatles. That's why they're the best, plain and simple.
I love ❤️ the song and the lyrics to the song 🎶
This is rock n roll perfection. Everything about this song, the band, this video, performance is perfect.
So fucking cool!

one of several songs that Charlie gave us, without a doubt his legacy is here to stay, Mr. Charlie!
I remember watching this on live BBC TV in 1968 when I was 13 years old. Amazing then as it still is now.
Ed turned me on to them
That's a monumental moment. You heard it before any of us.
Best song of Rock for me. It’s not only guitars, words or story, it’s also Mike. He’s like this but he ain’t worst, he differently has a place in the world where the rules sings like madness.
Sympathy for the devil is quite simply one of the greatest songs ever written. If you understand history then you’ll understand this song. Absolutely amazing.
IKR! One of my favorites along with Gimme Shelter, another fantastic song with a lot of history.

yes, condolences to the band and his family, many prayers
Definitely missing Mr Watts his Last name could not of been more appropriate . A True Gentleman and Rock Icon . . . God Bless ya Charlie . . .
Kick ass song. If no one knows, Rolling Stones have had the most songs played in movies. That tells how fantastic they are!
Impressive performance from Mick and co. Really need Brian supporting Keith on guitars here. Love the Mick Taylor solos later.
Absolutely one of the coolest "looks" Mick ever sported with his hair that length! My other favorite is his 1966 look with the short cropped bangs.
One of the greatest songs ever written
Seriously?🤮
It’s demonic👺
@@catherineconnolly2722 it’s quite deep unconcious. About the shadow side we all have. About accepting yourself and for nice guys to see that they have shadow self as well. listen to it again ”you are asking who killed the Kennedys, well after all it was you and me”. It is about understanding that we all have dark traits in our mind and the only way to love yourself is to have sympathy to yourself as a whole.

I am Robertt Charpentier, age 76, a Nam U.S. Army combat veteran from the 1st Infantry Division. After getting out of the army in 1969, I moved to Honolulu and saw the Stones in concert in 1970. At one point, Jagger was wagging his ass at me, while is was in the 2nd row, and I blurted out loudly, "Jagger you're insane!" and in an instant retort Mick looked directly at me and in a Cockney accent he said, "I know I am!"
Danke, thank you for the Information 😊

Brh imagine Brian Jones. High af and playing the same pattern. At a point, his hands hurt, but he has no clue why
Rocky Dijon, the brother was BADASS
Fun fact: The original tempo was so much slower... Please Thank Brian Jones for this version with the faster pace and also the awesome piano play!
Yup
Nice arm workout
I'm 65 and I was 10 when I heard this first time ... and nothing has changed till now. Fantastic.
This is such a good track all these years later. One of the most iconic Rock tracks of all time, and the way it is performed in this case is true showmanship. The whole thing. A band that was coming of age, but still plays to packed audiences more than 50 years later. Just Brilliant.
The Stone had been "of age" for several years already when this performance was recorded and filmed. The Beatles and the Stones both came out with their first double albums in 1967, _Sgt. Pepper_ and _Their Satanic Majesties Request._
I'm glad to see someone in the comments that recognizes the Stones, it really pains me to see all these kids making ridiculous comments about this "amazing new band"

This song is amazing in many aspects: It's one of popular music's best songs ever recorded, it's an amazing dance song, and it also features Keith Richards' best guitar solo.
And the lyrics are a masterpiece

The Rolling Stones will still be heard when I’m 6 feet under the ground!
They’ll never be forgotten

If you hear them when you're six feet under, won't they have to play kind of loudly?
And Keith Richards will probably be around to play it....
If this song is playing when you're 6 feet under that should terrify you.

I'm one of the biggest fans of The Who you'll find and on behalf of Who Nation: this performance is absolutely incredible! When I was young we always played the "this band is better than that band" game. But from the perspective of a 55 year old: they're ALL great! Be thankful you were alive during the time frame when bands like the Rolling Stones, The Who, Led Zep, etc were kicking ass live onstage!
Try and look at Eric Burdon and War doing paint it black ,live eye opener.
