Devo's chopped-up rendition of the Rolling Stones hit has been cited as Mick Jagger's favorite cover of the song, and for good reason - for a cover of someone else's song, it's pretty original. Here they are on Saturday Night Live, and there's something satisfying (no pun intended) about how well their mechanical stage personas add to the oddness of their music.
