"Satisfied" is a song by American singer-songwriter Richard Marx, released as the lead single from his second album, Repeat Offender (1989). It was Marx's second of three consecutive number-one singles on the US Billboard Hot 100 singles chart and became a top-20 hit in Australia and Canada.
In an ironic review on June 10, 1989, Betty Page, observer of British music newspaper Record Mirror, wondered along with readers why Richard Marx, with all the traits and skills of Bryan Adams, did not become as popular.[3]
