For the game "guitar hero 3",a metal verison was made by Steve Ouimette for the song "devil went doen to georgia",a song written and performed by the Charlie Daniels Band and released on their 1979 album Million Mile Reflections.The song is a narrative about the devil, who comes to Georgia in desperation to procure souls, as he was "way behind and "willin' to make a deal". He happens upon a young fiddle player named Johnny, who is minding his own business and playing impressively. The Devil approaches Johnny, and informs him that he too, plays the fiddle. He then decides to challenge Johnny to a fiddle-playing contest, confident that he is more skillful than the young boy. The terms of the duel are that should Johnny win, he will be given a fiddle made of solid gold, but should the Devil triumph, he gains Johnny's soul. Johnny accepts the terms, proudly telling the Devil that he will regret it as he is "the best there's ever been". The duel commences, with the Devil performing a sinister and powerful piece with the backing of demon musicians. Despite this, The Devil is squarely defeated when Johnny performs folk songs such as: "Fire on the Mountain", "Run Boys Run", "Chicken in the Breadpan", "Granny Does Your Dog Bite", and "House of the Rising Sun". The Devil acknowledges being bested and, true to his word, The Devil presents Johnny with a beautiful golden fiddle. Johnny boastfully informs the Devil that he is welcome anytime to come back for a rematch.

Please tell me your opinion of the new verison and if you haven't heard it,watch this,http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vyOlK24WD1k

I DON'T LIKE IT. they ruined a perfectly good country song by making it a crappy rock song. you can't even understand the words! i like the original, but the version i like the best is the one by Emersondrive.
