Final track on GH3 a country song? Not quite. Give it a listen.

The the final track on Guitar Hero 3 is "The Devil Went Down to Georgia" by the Charlie Daniels Band. For those of you who don't know,it's a country song more than a rock song and the stand out instument is not a guitar but a fiddle. It's not a bad song but a strange choice for Guitar Hero. IMO

When I heard the news this was the final song I was a little aprehensive. I mean we go from Free Bird to this?

After hearing the re-done track I'm feeling confused. It was remade with more of a metal sound and the fiddle was replaced by a guitar. It's not a bad song per-say but I'm not a fan of butchering original songs to make them fit into the game. At least all of the prior "as made famous by" tracks tried to get close to the original song.

Opinions?

After listening to the song two more times it grew on me. It reminds me of a bad cover, somethingthat Me First and the Gimmie Gimmies would do but I actually like the new rendition. However I still don't like the idea of this being the final song. There are hundreds of better songs that could have replaced this. Oh well the game will still be a blast.
