"Satisfaction" is a song by Italian DJ Benny Benassi. It was released in Italy on 5 January 2002 as the lead single from his album Hypnotica. Using MacinTalk, the song's vocals consist of two speech synthesizers, one male and one female, repeatedly saying "Push me and then just touch me till I can get my satisfaction". The track was Benassi's debut single and most successful song, peaking at number two in the United Kingdom and earning a gold certification in Australia, Belgium, France, and the United States. As of August 2014, it was the 54th best-selling single of the 21st century in France, with 382,000 units sold.[2]
"Satisfaction" is considered to be the forerunner of electro house that brought the genre into the mainstream.[3]
