I really appreciate that you recognize the historical references. So many reactors today have little to no understanding of history that gets referenced in many of the older rock songs that are listened to. Without that you miss the meaning behind it. So refreshing. Thank you. One of my favorite Rolling Stone songs is Paint it Black. If you haven't heard it, it is worth the listen.

Oh yes, Gimme Shelter will be a GREAT one for a reaction!

I loved this reaction. I think he was saying, yes I was there, but so we're you. I am what I am, but you should take responsibility for the Evil in your own heart's. I get goosebumps every time I hear this.

This is one of my fave songs because(I feel) the devil is telling us to take some responsibility for our actions...man's inhumanity to man... a long and ugly history...

Keef's guitar solo in here is my favorite piece of music ever. I really dig how you felt it.

Dude, I'm 55 and live in Canada. I watch lots of reaction video, you good sir are the best of them all. I'm old school, and you get it.

Great reaction friend. This song is from the viewpoint of the devil. It’s his way of saying, “you people do all these evil things and blame it on me” In other words, people say “the devil made me do it” and blame the devil for their evil deeds. I really dig your reactions, friend.

A man can know facts and have knowledge, as dry and cold as the pages of a dictionary ... But not all men can gain wisdom from knowledge. You have the gift of wisdom, which gives life to knowledge...

The inspiration for this song came from the novel The Master and Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov. This book was banned by Stalin. It is considered one of the greatest. Its character, Professor Woland (the devil) visits people in the Soviet Union( "allow me to introduce myself").He claims to have been there when Pilate condemned Jesus and he can predict the future and uses black magic. It is a really good book and this is a great song. Thanks to Marianne Faithfull for giving Mick the book lol✌🏼

It's a very darkly comedic book. A strong criticism of a lot of social ills.

Lyrics were influenced by a novel called Master & Margarita by the Soviet author Mikhail Bulgakov. The book was first published in English a year or two before the Stones wrote this song.

You have an Old Soul Brotha. You feel all music.

This is one of those songs that have a great juxtaposition between an extremely catchy melody and thought-provoking lyrics. You can groove to it, but at the same time there's a lot of "heaviness" to it.. Personally whenever I hear "I rode a tank, held a general's rank, when the blitzkrieg raged and the bodies stank" I always get chills, just that whole imagery that Devil/Satan/Lucifer himself was participating in WW2 disguised as some general just to be close and personal to all the fucked up things that were happening is fascinating. Great reaction.

Abracadabra, you're one of my favorites. Good to hear an older mature man's feedback on these songs.

One of the greatest songs ever written. Kudos for reacting to it.

"Can you guess my name?" The giveaway is in the song. "well, after all, it was you and me", the Devil is inside us all, the expression of our selfish dark side that is in need of restraint. We are the creators and destroyers of both Good and Evil.

A very well written song. It's a perspective we don't often get. But if you don't know the references it would be hard to understand the lyrics. This is exactly what the Devil would want us to believe, right? He just happened to be there for all of these atrocities but they were really all our fault and we're blaming him for our own failures. You're spot on with your Anastasi reference. So many times this song goes right over reactor's heads because they don't know their history. He's talking about the crucifixion of Christ, the Bolshevik Revolution, The Blitzkrieg during WWII, the Thuggie cult of Bombay and of course John and Robert Kennedy's assassination.

Your so right about the rock back then having so much soul and creativity. Recording technology has gotten so much better now but i feel the creativity is lacking.

The song is an absolute masterpiece.

You should try "Gimme Shelter" "Street Fighting Man" "Heartbreaker" next. Never has deep stuff sounded so musically cool.

The greatest rock band of all time and arguably the greatest rock song of all time. Next time you want to be blown away, listen to the ENTIRE Exile on Main Street album or Let it bleed. From the first to last song. Just pure perfection. Ps. That’s the one and only, Keith Richards on guitar

If you keep listening to the great old songs,you won't want to go back to rap and hip-hop! Don't forget classical and opera!

Considered the greatest rock and roll band.

Love that tribal beat. I’m 60 years old, been listening to this since I was 7. Never gets old.

This is a deep song - Satan is telling you that he isn't to blame for evil, human beings are. He simply reaps those souls. And yes, the reference to Anastasia was about the Bolshevik Revolution - she was the daughter of Czar Nicholas that for years afterward people insisted was still alive. The discography of the Stones could keep you busy for a while, but my favorite is Wild Horses.

The power of these cats to make you feel alive and full of energy and powerful and unstoppable is a true gift to all of us! Check out their pandemic song - Living In A Ghost Town. Yeah... these old men still got it!

Flawless song? Very accurate. It's perfect.

Love the stuff you add in afterwards. Great extra content! Great review

You are the only reviewer that got this song 100 percent correct. The song got it's inspiration from a novel that Mick Jagger read called the Master and Margarita; that's based on the Russian Revolution. The song was originally written as a Bob Dylan folk type of tune. Guitarist Keith Richards suggested changing the rhythm to a Samba; Keith also plays bass and the guitar solos. Bassist Bill Wyman is playing the maracas. You can find video of the development and recording of the song. Peace and Blessings.

One of the finest rock songs ever written

I loved watching you're reaction to this iconic song!

Appreciate your versatility in music I'm a fan and have subscribed
