"Please Go Home" is a song by the British rock 'n roll band, The Rolling Stones. It was written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards and was recorded in August, 1966. It first appeared on the UK version of Between the Buttons but was left off the US version in favor of the two hit singles, "Let's Spend the Night Together" and "Ruby Tuesday". It later appeared in the US on the album, Flowers. The song mixes a heavy Bo Diddley beat, played on a distorted guitar by Brian Jones revisiting his guitar work on "Mona", the usual Stones female put downs, and psychedelic flourishes, such as heavy repeating echo at the end of each line of the chorus. It also features a theremin, played by Brian Jones. The song has been covered by Izzy Stradlin.
