"Satisfaction" is a Benny Benassi track from his 2003 album Hypnotica. The track was Benassi's debut single and most successful song, peaking at number 2 in the UK. It was also used in a TV commercial for an Australian beer,[1] and Wendy's hamburgers. It also appears in the Nintendo Wii video game Just Dance 2, in the Xbox 360 video game, Dance Central, twice in Activision's DJ Hero, and in the Beavis and Butt-head episode "Drones". Also it was in the release game Saints Row the Third.
[edit] Music videos
- Version 1: The first version of the music video feature the three men and the woman in the cover of Hypnotica. It consists of one three-second take of the four people turning to face the camera and smile, played in slow-motion to match the length of the song. Inserted over top are clips of a man and a woman singing along to the song. This music video was barely played on music channels, although in some countries, it replaced the "construction" version.
- Version 2: The second and most famous version of the music video features women in skimpy construction outfits. The video plays almost like a virtual advertisement for a variety of power tools. All are used in a sexual manner. This version was mainly relegated to nighttime hours. It stars models Jerri Byrne, Thekla Roth, Natasha Mealey and Lena Frank.
- Version 3: The third version of the clip is animated. It shows animations of people dancing, singing and drinking. Very few music stations played this version.
