The cover is better than the original.

29. Old hippies? The original "Satisfaction" was years pre-hippie, in 1965

you young uns have little sense of temporal context.

I like Devo, and met Bob Mothersbaugh. They did "Satisfaction" 12 years later than the Stones original.

But the Stones version was game-changing. One of the first protest songs on commercial radio.

When I'm drivin' in my car
And that man comes on the radio
He's tellin' me more and more
About some useless information
Supposed to fire my imagination
I can't get no, oh no no no
Hey hey hey, that's what I say

I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get no satisfaction
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try
I can't get no, I can't get no

When I'm watchin' my TV
And that man comes on to tell me
How white my shirts can be
But he can't be a man 'cause he doesn't smoke
The same cigarrettes as me
I can't get no, oh no no no
Hey hey hey, that's what I say
