The Animals - House of The Rising Sun (1964)
So gifted and ahead of the times! In my humble opinion, Newcastle's Animals circa 1964 were vastly superior to their chart contemporaries, the Beatles and the Stones. The Beatles were loveable moptops then, and the Stones were still a few years away from their songwriting peak, but The Animals were raw, gritty and, in Eric Burdon, they had one of the all-time great blues/rock voices.
If you weren't there in 1964, it's hard to imagine today how big a deal this new & gritty music was. "House of the Rising Sun", was dark, brooding and very, very cool, it had an edge that was lacking from the other Brit-Beat groups and it broke new ground. The Animals' take on "The House of the Rising Sun" sounded wholly new. American music critic and writer Dave Marsh described it as: "the first folk-rock hit," sounding "as if they'd connected the ancient tune to a live wire," while writer Ralph McLean of the BBC agreed that: "it was arguably the first folk rock tune," calling it "a revolutionary single" after which "the face of modern music was changed forever."
Viva The Animals!

Description:
there is a house in new orleans
they call the rising sun
it's been the ruin of a many a poor girl
and me, oh god are one
if i had listened like momma said
i would not be here today
but being so young and foolish too
that a gambler lead me astray
come tell my baby sisters
dont do what i have done
please shun that house in new orleans
they call the rising sun
i'm goin back to new orleans
my race is almost run
i'm goin back to new orleans
beneath the rising sun

PLEASE READ BEFORE MAKING YOURSELF LOOK DUMB:
Ok I've had enough of these stupid comments and repeated conversations.
NO ONE knows who wrote House of the Rising Sun.
No, it wasn't the animals nor bob dylan.
It's much older than that.
The Animals version is considered definitive and I myself consider it to be the best.
Pink Floyd did not cover it. Thats a Floyd cover band called Fridged Pink.
this song was available on a compilation album called "1 Love" which was released by an organization called War Child.
