etc etc

 

[FLYLine27*]

Um...NO

 

[Xelebes]

'Tis This.

 

[Shareefruck]

Sure. I can't think of a better one.

 

[Jumptheshark]

Devil went down to georgia

 

[BonMorrison]

No.

 

[KirkOut]

Nope, Stairway to Heaven

I agree with this one, N.I.B. wins this.

 

[plank]

or this

 

[Xelebes]

Should also put this into the fray.



"Guten Morgen Schwester" from Der Teufel von Loudun by Krzysztof Penderecki.

 

[Pavelski2112]

There's an entire genre of better songs about Satan.

 

[Seb]

'Tis This.

This one was HUGE in my teen years

[Saturated Fats]

I've always wanted someone to smuggle a Ghost B.C. song onto an indie rock radio station or something. Their vibe would go absolutely well sandwiched between, like... a Bastille tune and some old Chili Peppers on the afternoon commute.

Y'know, if you could get past the whole Satan part.

Anyway, the answer to the OP question is Robert Johnson's Crossroad Blues.

 

[davemess]

Would probably be my choice.

 

[BonMorrison]

I cannot handle how much I love k-pop.

 

[plank]

Would probably be my choice.

That's one HELL of a choice

 

[Dipsy Doodle]

This one gets my vote:

 

[sully1410]

Number of the Beast is a good one.

 

[Jumptheshark]

 

[Hippasus]

This is one that is better than the Stones song, but there is one that is better yet.

 

[Hippasus]

And that is this one (I think there are more, but I can't think of them at the moment).

Necromantia - "Ancient Pride"

The Glory of Your Love
Is Built Upon Our People's Pain
And Your Glory is Painted Red
Of Our Noble Blood You Shed

You Came And Slaughtered Odin
You Came And Murdered Zeus
Our Gods Became Your Satan
And Satan Became Our God

The Ancient Pride
Still Burns Within Us
Honour, Strength And Joy
By Force We'll Purge Our Soil

The Wolf, The Bear, The Raven
Still Guard The Ancient Soul
The Ram Will Crush Your Temples
The Bull Will Slay Your Priests

You Brought The Faith of Slavery
You Crowned The King of Slaves
You Raped And Spoiled our Beauty
But You Conquered Not our Hearts

The Woods Became our Shelters
The Caves Became our Shrines
Hidden From The Greedy Eyes
Of Our Mad, Mercyful God
