"Welcome to the Jungle" on Two Cellos

(Video Link)

Here's Stjepan Hauser and Luka Sulic performing the Guns 'n' Roses classic "Welcome to the Jungle" on a pair of cellos. We've previously featured their rendition of Michael Jackson's "Smooth Criminal". It's not just the music that's amazing. Hauser and Sulic put on a stunning visual performance while rocking out. -via The Mary Sue

But of course, like all great music that stands the test of time, which are either about Good or Evil this song is about the Luciferean ego. Which the ego can identify with and so sing along as if the song were actually an anthem for the ego, but it is cleverly anti-ego. It would be like some irate teen singing along to Metallica's "Master of Puppets" as I once did, thinking that the master was my parents or the community or maybe the Prime Minister, when in actuality the master is desire. I didn't notice it as an irate teen because I was too busy being an irate teen and the song *sounded* like it sympathized with me.

{Quietly} Oh my God...

Cha!
Welcome to the jungle
We got fun 'n' games
We got everything you want
Honey we know the names
We are the people that can find
Whatever you may need
If you got no money, honey
We got your disease

In the jungle
Welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your shun na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, knees, knees!
I, I wanna watch you bleed

When you're high you never
Ever want to come down, so down, so down, so down... YEAH!

See the logic; we got fun n' games, we got everything you want. Watch it bring you to your knees. I wanna watch you bleed. This is a reference to Satan, and the "Jungle" is the fallen Eden, which is earth, and the serpentine is the great lie of Self upon which the desires, the wants and "fun n' games" find their footing.

Juxtapose this with; Sympathy for the Devil by The Rolling Stones, Running with the Devil by Van Halen, Life's Been Good by Joe Walsh, Peace of Mind by Boston and Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin.
