Otis Redding - (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction

[TheHigh94]

This man had too much damn soul!!!

[cydonicmania]

Otis makes me a better person.

[memphisjoneschannel]

Booker T & MGs guitarist Steve Cropper says he was scrounging for material for Otis when he decided to arrange this song for him. Otis returned to STAX from an afternoon physician appointment and read the lyrics through a few times before recording it WITHOUT EVER HEARING THE ORIGINAL!

[AliceNchainz011]

[WouterM]

[sinisteruk]

@hltsk8s2 Rolling Stones

[sslerette33]

[ARBELL1982]

Not a one dislike!! Now that's love and respect for a soul prodigy!!

[melende1966b]

Thank you for sharing this

[1973ziggystardust]

Woah. The horns in this are amazing!

[brandonlace]

Keef said that this is his favorite stones cover.

[RollesRhys]

wow only 26. imagine if he'd of lived on!!!

[ciaobellakate]

I used to think this was the best version, but The Stones wrote it and this awesome song would not have existed without Keith. They're both equally timeless classics and I like the direction Otis took it in and Keith does too.

O-Only

I-Illuminati

S-Survives

[smokingzaggin]

@dodg3rs21 I wish Jay-Z and Kanye West didn't sample him for their song so only true fans would listen to classics like this. Kids these days ruin everything...

[ciaobellakate]

@smokingzaggin

I know. He thinks he's tributing him when really he's ruining Otis' artwork.

[russiantoughguy]

@smokingzaggin Yeah man, Jay-Z and Kanye just wreck things

[SuperDrZaiusTurbo]

reading keith richards autobiography, he says that they (rolling stones) liked the song more after otis covered it, so pretty sure they were happy to have him (and aretha franklin) singing it. as someone else said they started off as a covers band themselves...

[wfarrar69]

love otis' version since i've found his version in 1983.the 'otis blue lp is good also.thanks for this one :)

[TheStinkyFingers]

I don't think at that time Otis Redding, The Rolling Stones, etc. did care about staling or not someone's song. It just about expressing feelings in a different way.Redding's version is much more soul-like, as Black musicians do so good, whereas the RS version is more rock'n'rolling. It's like Mercy, Mercy : when Jimi plays it on the guitar it sounds very soully compared to Keith's version.

There's no point in blaming one for stealing it, it's just different and they're all good :)

[seppsters]

Take it easy with all copying crap. Plagiarism is the sincerest form of flattery.

[Heliass94]

Best cover of satisfaction

[RhapsodicBlues]

Otis didn't steal a damn thing. You want to talk about stealing, how about all those pop and rock n' roll artists who stole from black artists without crediting them.

[The6thSimpson]

Keith said that he intended the riff of the original to be a trumper, like it was done here.

[millsbrothers]

He didnt steal shit! He took the thunder from the Stones and her performed it until he died. The Stones covered so many Muddy Waters song (dig their name), I am sure they were happy a idol like Otis did their song.

[TruErnie]

how can people possibly listen to the likes of swagger jagger when music like this is still in the world. im glad to say i can appreciate this at 18!

[MegaPounet]

j'ai écouté otis la première fois ,j'avais 13ans ,j'en ai aujourd'hui 62 et je l'aime toujours autant! la zik que l'on peut écouter toute la journée sans etre lasser!!!!!!

[stefanienava]

[SuperJljohnson]

[Crespwnian]

[EricksHinumaru]

You know it's good when Richards loved it. Great cover.

[Treadsoftly14]

wow...otis took this song to a whole new level.

[UKRod]

Fantastic track off the greatest soul album ever made.  The Stones loved it!

[OregonDARRYL]

long live the magnificent Rolling Stones!

[parlotte46]

The only possible cover of the Rolling Stones !

[MrGoofySkull]

@parlotte46

almost all of the Rolling Stones' songs are covers of old Blues songs! (what doesn't matter, because they're all golden covers)

[phyghter]

@MrGoofySkull This song was written by the rolling stones. otis and mick were actually good friends

[TheAbbeyroadfan]

I miss him so much, and I wasn't even alive back then.

[ageprep]

Perfetto per il mio stato d'animo ....

[hungryherbie]
