ON THIS DAY IN 1965 TODAY: THE RIFF FROM SATISFACTION
In the night of May 6 to 7, 1965, Keith Richards of The Rolling Stones came up with the riff for (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction. The band is currently on an American tour and is sleeping in a hotel in Clearwater, Florida. According to Richards, he woke up at night with the riff in his head. He gets up, records it and then goes back to sleep. Later that day, he and Mick Jagger finish the song. The text is about the commercialization of society that Jagger encounters in America.

Sugar Daddy is the most popular hit in the Dutch Top 40 this week. The differences remain small at the top of the List of Lists.
A fourth week at number 1 means that Roxy Dekker manages to match the previous performances of Lisa Loïs and Anouk this week. Ten Dutch women were at number 1 for longer and Davina Michelle, with 18 weeks in first place, is the record holder.
