"No Response" is a song written by Benny Andersson, first recorded by Swedish rock group Hep Stars and released as a single in September 1965.

The song was written in response to criticism drawn from other Swedish beat groups, including Shanes and Tages for their inability to write own material.

[4] Hep Stars had achieved immense popularity in early April 1965 with tracks such as "A Tribute to Buddy Holly", "Farmer John", "Cadillac" and "Bald Headed Woman" all charting on Kvällstoppen and Tio i Topp.

[5][6] The band had now a fanbase similar to the Beatles, and a phenomenon regarding Hep Stars just like Beatlemania had begun in Sweden during this period.

They stated that the Hep Stars had become hugely successful by only performing covers of American rhythm and blues.

[8] Andersson had been greatly intrigued and inspired by the Beatles ability to write their own material, and had attempted some himself to no avail.

[18][19] The song is also featured on the group's second release, the live album Hep Stars on Stage.
