* MagnificentBastard: "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgnClrx8N2k Sympathy for the Devil]]": [[{{Satan}} The Devil]] himself, representing the personification of humanity's collective evil, is the suave, manipulative [[VillainProtagonist protagonist]] of the song. His existence being to tempt mankind into evil, the Devil lavishly orchestrates several events in human history towards this dark end from: arranging UsefulNotes/{{Jesus}}'s crucifixion; dismantling the [[UsefulNotes/RomanovsAndRevolutions Romanov family dynasty]] in Soviet Russia; and pitting monarchs into warring each other. Despite him freely admitting his monstrousness, the Devil balances this by establishing himself as a sophisticated ManOfWealthAndTaste who criticizes society's blurring of the line between good and evil, making it apparent that he and humanity were one and the same.

* CompleteMonster: "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgnClrx8N2k Sympathy for the Devil]]": TheDevil himself initiates the song by fondly reminiscing on the [[HistoricalRapSheet many crimes]] he had committed on mankind such as compelling Pontius Pilate into sentencing UsefulNotes/{{Jesus}} to death; orchestrating the [[UsefulNotes/RomanovsAndRevolutions October Revolution and the execution of the Romanov family]]; [[UsefulNotes/TheHundredYearsWar pitting warring monarchs against each other for 10 decades]] to his amusement; and relishing in the stench of the rotten bodies left behind in [[UsefulNotes/WorldWarII the aftermath of the Blitzkrieg]]. Throughout the song, while the Devil tries to convey himself as a "ManOfWealthAndTaste", his thinly veiled threats to damn the souls of anyone who disrespects him exposes the unbridled monster he truly is.

* SuspiciouslySimilarSong: The beginning of the acoustic guitar intro for "Salt of the Earth" sounds almost identical to the beginning of Music/BobDylan's [[Music/BlondeOnBlonde "Visions of Johanna"]], though the songs are otherwise much different.
