Lyrics:
The devil went down to Georgia, he was looking for a soul to steal.
He was in a bind 'cos he was way behind: he was willin' to make a deal.
When he came across this young man sawin' on a fiddle and playin' it hot.
And the devil jumped upon a hickory stump and said: "Boy let me tell you what:
"I bet you didn't know it, but I'm a fiddle player too.
"And if you'd care to take a dare, I'll make a bet with you.
"Now you play a pretty good fiddle, boy, but give the devil his due:
"I bet a fiddle of gold against your soul, 'cos I think I'm better than you."
The boy said: "My name's Johnny and it might be a sin,
"But I'll take your bet, your gonna regret, 'cos I'm the best that's ever been."
Johnny you rosin up your bow and play your fiddle hard.
'Cos hells broke loose in Georgia and the devil deals it hard.
And if you win you get this shiny fiddle made of gold.
But if you lose, the devil gets your soul.
The devil opened up his case and he said: "I'll start this show."
And fire flew from his fingertips as he resined up his bow.
And he pulled the bow across his strings and it made an evil hiss.
Then a band of demons joined in and it sounded something like this.
When the devil finished, Johnny said: "Well you're pretty good ol' son.
"But if you'll sit down in that chair, right there, and let me show you how its done."
Fire on the moun, run boys, run.
The devil's in the house of the risin' sun.
Chicken in the bread pin, pickin' out dough.
"Granny, does your dog bite?"
"No, child, no."
The devil bowed his head because he knew that he'd been beat.
He laid that golden fiddle on the ground at Johnny's feet.
Johnny said: "Devil just come on back if you ever want to try again.
"I told you once, you son of a bitch, I'm the best that's ever been."
And he played fire on the mount, run boys, run.
The devil's in the house of the risin' sun.
Chicken in the bread pin pickin' out dough.
"Granny, does your dog bite?"
"No, child, no."
The only version of Devil Went Down to Georgia where I can accept, without reservation, that Johnny's solo rocked hard enough for the Devil to think to himself "...fuck. he really is better."
Not until Johnny's solo was METALFIED!
I love coming to this video after ages and seeing i've already liked your comment
God I hope that guitar was 18.
I took some time, but I think I got it now :D
Some passionate fingering for sure.
whut
Zztop
He fingered that guitar so hard even my guitar felt it.
I can almost hear the sound of strum bars clicking and clicking away.
This shit gives my hands flashbacks to the carpal tunnel ahead
Indeed
As I read your comment I could hear them too. Please stop hacking my brain, sir.
The originals are good, but this seriously sounds like a battle for glory, and the last solo is so good
Face it, this rocks a helluva lot more!
4:54 when you start to hear this and you have 0 power ups you know the shitstorm it's coming.
*DEATH DRAIN!*
"Suddent death"
Ikr
I like how the music starts up after that 👍🏽
i have that feeling at around 1:30 ish
I grew up with my dad listening to the original .
So when i found this i EXPLODED !!! (in a good way )
Erik van Dongen Got it. A spray of jizz
@@WillowChord i am amused, bewildered and disgusted. thank you.
@@elhomo6406 the three state of being that defines my internet browsing, how intresting.
Totally misread this the first time.
i know what you mean, you dont know grieg's hall of the mountain king until you hear the apocalyptica version
What I like the most about this song, is when Johnny wins and the Devil admits his defeat, Johnny still finishes his song.
Because he felt like bragging that day.
Even though this is a cover, whoever played the guitar killed it
Ummm Steve ouimette????
If a song seperates amateur Guitar Heros from badasses, it's this. And i'm one of 'em amateurs.
keep practising. victory solo K and R really are overrated.
Thomas E Nah, i'm not passionate about guitars. I only play Guitar Hero for fun.
+Thomas E X is where it gets real.
guitar hero isn't guitar...
@@TimmyOsman It helped me learn to get better at guitar.
After 10 years, I finaly succed to play the entire song in expert on clone hero ! The end of the nightmare ^^
For me, the hardest song of all GH serie
Noice job man! Clone Hero's where it's at!
s
Now play it on rocksmith :D
Have you tried Through the fire and flames? That's the hard one . _.
Well more like 5 years most likely in guitar hero and 5 in clone because clone didn’t come out until 2014-2017 I think.
Charlie Daniels isn't dead, he's only gone to the Devil for a rematch
Why doesn't this comment have more likes? This feels absolutely perfect considering the song that you're commenting on. Anyways, somewhat unrelated side note, Is Charlie Daniels dead?
@@gogeta3326passed away in 2020 at 84 from a stroke
4:54
"Well, this is the part where he kills us."
"Hello! This is the part where I kill you!"
*THE PART WHERE HE KILLS YOU*
i understood that reference
@@Molteniceee what is the reference?

Chapter 9 *THE PART WHERE HE KILL US*
Wheatly: hello this is the part where i kill you
(Im a culture man like you)
Those 17 dislikes were made by the Devil
+CitruSquash clearly lou.
LOL
nah he got his bitch beiber to do it
93 why
Because he knew that he'd been beat
best song on GH3, amazing song itself, one of my favorites
Same
5:00-5:23. Now THAT is a fucking solo.
R.I.P. Charlie Daniels (1936 - 2020) 😇
4:54 This fuckin' solo man!!! :0
4:53 Whelp, you're fucked...
***** in one of the guitar hero games, you fight a boss named lue. the time i posted was the part in the fight where you lose to lue.
Ace Master Shady
It took me the longest time to beat Lou.
THIS SONG ROCK'S !!!!!!!!!!And i like both versions;violon and guitar
OH MY GOD WHAT SOLO? Jeez this whole song is a solo pretty much X'D
Its not just one solo. Its two different solos
The first one is the non lyrical part where the devil is playing
The second is the lyrical part that goes fire on mountain run boys run which is johnny's turn to play
@@djslender7810 2 gutars overlap constantly throughout the both parts you mentioned of the song, I like to think that Johnny and the Devil are going back end forth trying to outplay eachother.
@@Rulytasho
But theres a clear difference between the part after "and it sounded somthing like this" and the part where it goes "fire on the mountain run boys run"
Heard the original, all I can say is the fiddles evolved into guitars
Exciting guitar playing :D my favorite licks are at 1:59, 4:01 and 4:40
Lou battle bad memoirs from expert hyperspeed
lol its easier with hyperspeed
+Casey Crawford Tobi is right, Hyperspeed is objectively easier. It's much easier to read notes when they aren't all jammed together at the normal speed.
aMondayMorning lol that's funny because when i used to play i always found hyperspeed super annoying, would rather play with normal fret speed
I always found it easier to play it hyperspeed x2
All gh3 bosses
Tom Morelo
Slash
Lou
Kliper Klipovic lou is deadly yo
@@musxn yep
my worst nightmare i never finish GH 3 on expert for this song and that battle but MAN I LOVE LISTENING
Been looking for this FOREVER
Glad you found it
Took bro years to figure out how to type “devil went down to georgia metal” in the search bar lmaooo
@@JorbyIsBad I just type in "gh3 devil went down to georgia" or "steve ouimette" and it'll basically show up at the top.
This battle was brutal on Expert.
Not cause of the song's difficulty, but because of FUCKING LEFTY FLIP.
I remember getting so mad when I finished the song but I still lost because I didn't technically beat Lou. So cheap lol
I flipped him off after I beat him on expert
it is. expert is legit brutal. the lefty wasnt the biggest bitch for me because i started playing expert on lefty for this song but the damn first solo did me in so many times for some strange reason.
i legit beated him after 5 tries. and im not even sure how xd
And the fucking Amp overload... Its not Bad on itself but when Lou decides to break My fucking string at The same time... Fucking hell!
I wish it could be played outside of solo career bc i use a controller and the strings are bs on controller
RIP Charlie Daniels, this one is for him
first time I beat this song...what a battle. I spent the entire day, part of the way through had to smoke some weed. started early in the morning, around late night I finally beat it.
The devil went down to Jamaica...
This was intense on Guitar Hero III, still can't do that song on expert but I got it on hard. Still stuck on that solo on "Cult of Personality" on expert to this very day XD
Edit: You know you're fucked at 4:54
Yeah you know the feeling when you get here during the duel and all you have is amp overload and no more powers
The fact that Charlie Daniel's hates this version just reeks of jealousy
Wait really?
He didn’t hate it because of how it sounds, he hated it because the Devil could win
@@sadeknight9112 And in all fairness, Lou fucking cheats like a bitch.
Best version.
Steve? Oh, we met
1:56 Better hope you got the Whammy Break or the Broken String, which hopefully was the green button when activated.
Otherwise, youre pretty much fucked up. The memories....I even know when the power ups are coming on each part of the whole song!!
I remember having to beat this on a guitar with a broken whammy bar so if I got the whammy break I was screwed, basically had to get really lucky
@@masahirosakurai8873 that's some hardcore shit dude
I never realized what riffs this would be on a guitar.
Dave Mustaine has entered the chat...
I was gonna learn this song on guitar.
However, after viewing the tabs, I'm like, "Nah, fuck that."
Lmao same, the rhythm section is doable but that's about it
@@ayoitscat this dude is criminally underrated
The devil's solo is so much cooler because of the Dim7 arpeggios.
The walking bass-ish riff that supports this part is the real deal
The nostalgia....
One could argue that Johnny is the default winner. İ mean, the Devil technically cheated by taking help from demons and would be disqualified. But maybe demonic law works differently, i dunno.
5:00 - 5:23 Holy shit...o_o
3:07 🔥🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥💯💯💯🗣️🗣️🚒
19 people couldn't beat the devil.
joshua carver 46 are left complete sitting ducks by the Chinese lyrics.
"Lou rocks!!!"
Much better than original song
Eri Medeiros what’s the original
Original is by charlie daniels band
this is the hardest song i've ever learned, with the exception of ring of saturn solos
Is it bad that this is the first version of this song that I heard? And that I heard it by playing GH3?
Yes that is actually terrible expand your musical horizons my friend
@@afrothunder9095 agreed.
Damon Ricciardi And yours are expansive? I highly doubt that.
No bro don't listen to trolls. Don't matter who you are; music is infinite and welcomes all generations.
This version is actually very good and on par with the original for sheer quality, don't sweat it.
Who did you make a crossroads deal with? Was it Crowley? I bet it was Crowley.
Ahahahahahaha
Good god at the solos in this song!
Melhor batalha
Wow great guitarist
awsome!!!
THE NOSTALGIA
Little did the devil know that johnny would grow up to be doom guy
I don't want lyrics on Steve's songs(covers) I want the tabs! :)
Ondrej Skivalkählisiin try googling it
Brave
4:54 It was at this moment the Devil knew he f'ed up
Amazing :D
this inspiration is pretty cool
yes man is asomeeeeeee....the battel whit Lou...the song is the best
Classic
Ehem, Fiddle.
I finally found this! 🎉
Good song
ITS LIT BOI!
I still hear the GH3 sound effects when i listen to this.. including the fuck up sound. Guess i sucked more than i thought
I like the part when the song goes quiet then one plays then the music starts up again.
Guitar hero 3.
dannydsi3d eyup
No shit Sherlock
4:54 = series of odd numbered heart attacks that would cancel out each other.
You've been warned.
TDWDTG>TTFATF xD
No... just no
please don't say that again
The Devil is much more difficult than Flames. However, the most difficult song in the series is Jordan on Guitar Hero 2, simply because the engine is so garbage.
Kyle couldn't be more accurate
Kyle took me a few hours to finally get the achievement for beating it on expert, I was always I high 5 star on the hardest songs, my best FC is probably cliffs of Dover or cult of personality for gh 3, had a few good ones on gh 2 and rock band 2 as well, loved the rock band 2 engine and look, I had every guitar hero and rock band there was. god it was only 12 years ago that I was rocking to these songs in my room with some friends but most of the time myself, just recording them for UA-cam, guitar hero videos never blew up like fifa I guess because the companies couldn’t milk you for cash constantly and also UA-cam being still new. Still it feels like decades have past since I was there, time is a funny thing Kyle, I hope you still have apart of your kid self, it makes you remember time easier
Childhood memories....fuck this was fucking hard!
O_O ROCK!! xD
i luv this sng it always beats the oringinal
Holy shit this music is too hot for my peanut brain.
+Shaun Tagoe lel xD
11 yo me had some problem with the solos on gh3. I had pause game to let my fingers rest coz they just stopped moving. Had same with satch boogie :D
I remember beating this guitar battle on GH3 when I was 8. My mom originally wasn’t comfortable with me doing it because it was the devil and my mom acts like she’s really religious but I talked her into it.
Lol its a good thing if anything because you are defeating the devil as gods right hand man😂
Seriously? You’re dueling the devil for a shiny fiddle made of gold. Just tell her you were trying to slay him with your axe.
Your mom sounds like a nerd, my parents didn't give a fuck because it's a video game and they aren't lame bozos
is there a karaoke version of this one?
like i want this particular version of the song without the singer
No.
Charlie Daniels Band: Normal
Steve Ouimette: In the first age, in the first battle....
Johnny was so good he talked shit to the devil
“Guitar Hero” brought me here.
Oh god, the bass
Haha, I lovee both versions! Is it harder or easier to play on the guitar?
Fucking harder... i broke 9 strings trying to play this song. Learning it was a motherfucker
well it's not composed to be played live, and I can bet money it was recorded by parts and put together with an editor, so definitely way harder on real guitar
I wish this was on Apple Music
IPhone didn't want to pay for the greatness
4:54
Jesus sweet christ thats insane
Isn't that what descriptions are for when viewing UA-cam videos?
I never beat this song because my whammy bar was broken 😭😭😭😭
4:54 You know you done fucked up, right?
Easy song but good really good
+Casey Crawford EASY SONG! Are you kidding me rn
+Ben_Parker (DiamondCh33se) arguably the easiest
Casey Crawford bro this is in the top 3 hardest GH songs, without a doubt.
1.30
4:54 It was at that moment The Devil knew, he fucked up.
I asked my mom if she knew this song and she asked me if I liked the fiddle and I said “what fiddle”
6.9k likes and I got to be one. Nice.
This is a tutorial in how to melt your own face with a solo.
The Devil Deals the Cards.
It's the same thing...
Guitar hero 3? :3
When you beat this on your first attempt
At 1:50 hit him with a whammy
And he later became Johnny B.Goode😮
My favorite part 5:59
To this day i call this Doomguy’s origin story
1:24 damn I need some guitar lessons from them demons.. Pazuzu where u at??
