Dreams That Changed Human History Forever

Satisfaction

The Rolling Stones are one of the greatest rock ‘n roll bands of all time and have a huge back catalog. If we’re being honest, many of their songs were probably written while they were high on (cough) life! But, this isn’t the case with all of them, and “Satisfaction” was a notable exception to this rule.

Keith Richards has claimed that the song was written as a result of a dream he had. Apparently, the legendary guitarist woke up and recorded the acoustic riffs so he wouldn’t forget them, before falling back asleep. Rumor has it that the original recording had the riffs followed by 40 minutes of Richards snoring!
