The word 'Satisfaction' extracted from 38 covers of the iconic rolling stones song and played back to back as a single track with no gaps. Musicians such as Devo, Tom Jones, Vanilla Ice, Otis Reading, Britney spears and Television span genres ranging from pop, lounge jazz, techno, Latina, thrash metal, rap and prog rock to create the most covered song in music history; a song originally written to express Jagger’s 'alienation’ while on tour in America as both an 'attack on the status quo’ and the 'vacuity of consumer society'. The displaced words are illegally downloaded from the internet and recompiled on an ongoing basis until the collection is complete.
