Let's Spend the Night Together is a single by the British musical group The Rolling Stones, released on 13 January 1967 and taken from the album Between the Buttons. Let's Spend the Night Together was written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards. In the same 1967 the song was included as the opening track on the American version of the album Between the Buttons and was later the subject of numerous covers, including that of David Bowie published as a single and as the eighth track of the album Aladdin Sane in 1973. The song was recorded in November 1966 at Olympic Studios in London. In addition to the members of the Rolling Stones, excluding bassist Bill Wyman who did not participate in the session, the recording saw the presence of Jack Nitzsche on piano. Interviewed by Hit Parader magazine in December 1968, engineer Glyn Johns said that during the mixing of Let's Spend the Night Together, producer Andrew Loog Oldham was trying to get a certain sound by snapping his fingers when two policemen arrived to check that everything was OK as they had found an open door. The producer initially asked them to wear his headphones while he snapped their fingers but Johns said that a duller sound was needed. One of the policemen then suggested using their truncheons and Mick Jagger began playing them like sticks, which can be heard during the break about halfway through the song. Released as a single in the UK, with "Ruby Tuesday" as the "double A-side", Let's Spend the Night Together reached number 3 in the UK Singles Chart in February 1967 and has remained one of the Rolling Stones' most famous songs ever since. Around the same time, it was included in the American version of the album Between the Buttons and was also released on a 45 rpm single in the United States. However, due to the allusions to casual sex in the song, many radio stations chose to broadcast only Ruby Tuesday, so much so that the two songs entered the Billboard Hot 100 separately, the latter at number 1 and Let's Spend the Night Together only at number 55.
One of the most famous examples of musical censorship occurred on January 15, 1967, during the Ed Sullivan Show, during which the band was initially refused permission to perform the song. Ed Sullivan himself told Mick Jagger: "Either the song goes or you go." A compromise was reached that consisted of replacing "let's spend the night together" with "let's spend some time together." Jagger agreed, but every time he said the phrase he ostentatiously winked at the camera.
In April 2006, during their first ever performance in China, the authorities banned the group from performing the song because of its "suggestive lyrics".
