i've removed this subsection because the source it refers to (the Godard film) doesn't actually show the playing/recording of the solo. and although i agree with the bit about the tone of the guitar, unless a reliable source is cited for it, it's original research, which Wikipedia policies don't allow. here's what i removed, in case someone wants to rephrase it and source it properly:

In Guitar Player magazine, Richards says the solo is the acoustic guitar distorted through a small tape recorder. I'll try to find this info on line. DavidRavenMoon ( talk) 01:14, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
The Primal Scream/ Andrew Weatherall song Loaded uses the same samba rhythm and chord sequence. The question is where did it come from, before Jagger picked it up? [added by User:JCJC777 12 November 2017, moved from article space.] — Ojorojo ( talk) 23:08, 12 November 2017 (UTC)
Related claim: "Jagger sings in first person narrative as the Devil, boasting his role in each of several historical violent atrocities."
However, you could reasonably argue that it is "God" that is speaking. I'm not sure what the intention was, but that sounds better because what would the intentions be of just singing about the "Devil"?

"2601:140:4200:4276:150c:f5cd:1d7e:30f1" has removed my "Citation needed" tag without any comment or explanation. I think this clearly shows why I believe a citation may be needed. If no one responds, I'm just going to add it again. 95.49.17.183 ( talk) 20:04, 19 May 2019 (UTC)
Lucifer was the devil's name before he fell, when he was an angel. Satin is using opposites and using his name before he rejected God.
I changed the Guns N' Roses version being recorded to April 1994 because when Axl Rose sent his Fax to MTV in October 1996 announcing Slash's departure from the band, he stated Slash hadn't been involved with the band musically since April 1994. Slash is on the Guns N' Roses version of the song, and thus April 1994 is when it was recorded. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2604:2000:1281:88EA:101:B4E3:B4A3:9A40 ( talk) 03:38, 21 November 2020 (UTC)
"Works based on Faust" appears as a template and category but isn't referenced or even mentioned anywhere in the article. What's the source on this? Ribbet32 ( talk) 14:51, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
