(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction

"(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" is a song by the English rock band The Rolling Stones, released in 1965. It was written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards and produced by Andrew Loog Oldham. Richards' three-note guitar riff‍—‌intended to be replaced by horns‍—‌opens and drives the song. The lyrics refer to sexual frustration and commercialism.

The song was first released as a single in the United States in June 1965 and was also featured on the American version of the Rolling Stones' fourth studio album, Out of Our Heads, released that July. "Satisfaction" was a hit, giving the Stones their first number one in the US. In the UK, the song initially was played only on pirate radio stations, because its lyrics were considered too sexually suggestive. It later became the Rolling Stones' fourth number one in the United Kingdom.

The song is considered the greatest song the band ever recorded. In 2004, Rolling Stone magazine placed "Satisfaction" in the second spot on its list of "The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time". The song was added to the National Recording Registry of the Library of Congress in 2006.

Background

"Satisfaction" was one of the last songs that Eve added to the album. About the recording of the song, Eve told MTV, "I actually was getting ready to walk out the studio. I had a headache, I was stressed out. I just was like ... working with Dre ... me and Dre got this love/hate relationship. Every time I write a song [for him], it's the hardest song I wrote. Like 'Blow Your Mind'; it just was drama." The song was originally recorded for Scorpion, but however, did not make the album because she already had two songs produced by Dr. Dre. She said, "We decided to put it on this album and it fit in perfectly."
