SOMETHING HAPPENED TO ME YESTERDAY
“Something Happened to Me Yesterday” is the closing track of The Rolling Stones’ 1967 album Between the Buttons. Written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards and recorded in August and November 1966, “Something Happened to Me Yesterday” is the first officially released Rolling Stones track to feature Richards on separate lead vocal. Jagger sings the verses; Richards sings the chorus and plays the electric and acoustic guitars; Charlie Watts is on drums and Bill Wyman on bass; Brian Jones plays saxophone and whistles; and Jack Nitzsche plays piano.

Speaking of which, Between the Buttons ends with a song called “Something Happened to Me Yesterday”; from Wikipedia: “At the time of the song's release, [Mick Jagger] said: ‘I leave it to the individual imagination as to what happened.’ Matthew Greenwald calls it ‘one [of] the most accurate songs about LSD’.”
