Me and the Devil

Robert Johnson recorded the original on June 19, 1937 in Dallas, his final session, with Don Law producing; the Vocalion single followed in 1938. Wikipedia says the chord structure of Soap&Skin's version comes from Gil Scott-Heron's industrial 2010 version on I'm New Here, which is uncited there, and Drowned in Sound independently hears the same debt, closer to Scott-Heron's than to Johnson's. We found nothing from her on its meaning. It appears in Dark, per English Wikipedia (an uncited claim; German Wikipedia names "Goodbye" as the main title), and in a 2020 episode of the German series Polizeiruf 110. A "Slowed" version is listed as a 2017 single, and the song became popular on TikTok in 2024 and 2025.

Setlist.fm lists it as her fourth most played song, at 54 plays of 157 setlists, behind "Vater", "The Sun" and "Pale Blue Eyes". Shazam reportedly put it at a peak of 22 on its global chart; a Portuguese festival listing claims more than 100 million Spotify plays, which we could not verify.
