Sympathy For the Devil
 

I was listening to my mp3 collection at radom and I got to hear Sympathy For the Devil by GnR and then the BJ version from Wembly.

If we count the Stones, GnR and BJ, which is your favorite version AND WHY? (let's try to find an other reason then I'm a BJ fan therefore BJ is better!)

Here's my shot at it:
Its been too long since I've heard the Stones version to give elaborate comments on it. But between GnR and BJ, I prefer the BJ version because Jon's voice is less annoying the Axl Rose. Jon's had a soft and sexy voice there, while Axl was screaming as usual. ( Don't get me wrong, I love lot of GnR songs, like Welcome to the Jungle...Paradise City...and so on, but Jon's voice was superior in Sympathy.)
As for the guitar, I have to admit Slash was pretty amazing...but GnR was a studio version so maybe that's why I seem to be more aware of the guitar in GnR version!!!

It just fits very well into KTF!!

so that's why you prefer BJ's version? or there is something else that make you liek it better?

No - It just makes KTF even better.. it fits in so well.. it is great when u hear Hughs Bass line change!!!!

+ Jons voice fits it well!!

I prefer GNR's version. Even over The Stones. I really love the way GNR sound. Very Rock N Roll!

i second that

the stones version is pretty good....but ive never heard the GnR version

You have to hear the GnR version, its good...its on the soundtrack of the movie Interview with a Vampire. Absolutely Great movie, by the way!

The GnR version is almost the same as the Stones version. Can't really decide which I like best.

guns 'n roses version... it's heavier than bj's one, and more dirty! :twisted:

it would have been great if jbj were singing and the rest of g'n'r played (but normally i prefer rs on guitars than slash).
