I dag for 48 (!) \u00e5r siden udsendte The Rolling Stones deres ‘Get Off Of My Cloud som single. Indspillet halvanden m\u00e5ned tidligere i RCA Studios i Hollywood, skulle denne adrenalin-raket af en sang fungere som efterf\u00f8lger til 65-sommerens monsterhit ‘(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction’. Keith Richards kommentar i 1971 p\u00e5 sangen udstr\u00e5ler ikke tilfredshed med slutresultatet:<\/p>\n
“I never dug it as a record. The chorus was a nice idea, but we rushed it as the follow-up. We were in L.A., and it was time for another single. But how do you follow-up “Satisfaction”? Actually, what I wanted was to do it slow like a Lee Dorsey thing. We rocked it up. I thought it was one of Andrew Loog Oldham’s worst productions”.<\/em><\/p>\n H\u00e5rde ord, og ‘Get Off Of My Cloud’ tog dog singlehitlisternes f\u00f8rsteplads i bl.a. England, Tyskland og USA, s\u00e5 s\u00e5 h\u00e5bl\u00f8s som Richards p\u00e5st\u00e5r var sangen vel aldrig. Selv vil jeg til enhver tid foretr\u00e6kke denne ret perfekte prototype-garagepunksang fremfor ‘Satisfaction’. Filmoptagelsen her blev vist hele seks gange p\u00e5 BBC’s Top of the Pops…<\/p>\n
