"Get Off of My Cloud" is a song by the English rock band the Rolling Stones.[5] It was written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards for a single to follow the successful "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction". Recorded in Hollywood, California, in early September 1965, the song was released in September in the United States and October in the United Kingdom. It topped the charts in the US, UK, Canada, and Germany and reached number two in several other countries.

The 1965 single release was a major success for the Rolling Stones. In the US, the single reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 on 6 November 1965, and remained there for two weeks.[13] The song was included on the band's next American album, December's Children (And Everybody's), released in December 1965.[14] The song stayed at number one in the UK Singles Chart for three weeks in November that year.[15] Billboard described the song as a "wild, far out beat number which will have no trouble topping their 'Satisfaction' smash."[16] Cash Box described it as a "rollicking, fast-moving blues-soaked thumper with an infectious danceable beat" that should be another success after "Satisfaction."[17] Record World said that "The Rolling Stones dispense some more of their very thick and funky rock."[18]
