Black Keys - When The Lights Go Out

[ricle1121]

This song is pure magic!

[Grimking1991]

My favorite Black Keys song, its the first song i ever heard of theirs and ive been a fan ever since.

[checkthapain]

fucking awesome. cant stop listening. both are beasts on their instrument

[colormemonkey]

dan plays in standard tuning.....at i do when i play along haha

[nsr4interpol]

Pure Rock'n'Roll.

[FreeQuenC9000]

#5... @high noon btw

[tombertyz]

Standing behind that cymbal, for a while it looks like Dan is playing a "Fender Explorer"

[Gyitplaya]

Can someone please tell me what tuning Dan Auerbach is in? I'm going to try to learn to play this.

[Sinisterkidvids]

@Gyitplaya hes in standard here im pretty sure

[rocktheglooves]

@perfectlyxxunperfect @imloled you guys both know good music :)

[KDollism]

This song is so sexy I love closing my eyes and letting the music move me...

[imloled]

@perfectlyxxunperfect why? its a normal country

[imloled]

@perfectlyxxunperfect thats great!! but in chile.... nobody knows real music like this, metal, etc

[imloled]

Wow, i think im the only "kid" (13)in the world that likes the black keys...

[Burn1j]

What a fkn band!!

[juffan]

I never heard of the Black Keys but when I heard Cage The Elephant was opening for them, I bought tickets, and all the Black Keys albums, and I think they're great now.

[TheBigloulou]

ATT: godfarter ---> i very much appreciate your statement given that every work of it is true (other than the "mofos" part ),ROCK AND ROLL WILL NEVER DIE, THE ONLY THING DYING ARE THE GREATEST MUSICIANS EVER TO WALK THE EARTH!! We all are who we are today because of thesse people!, The Black Keys are just one of the many bands keeping this music alive! These guys are awsome!

[jodyb11]

usually i am not into live versions of songs but i freakin love thisrock version of this song. sounds so much better than the acoustic in the original

[AngryIraqi]

what a gr8 duo, i mean it can't get any better.. 

[RockRinna]

They make real music!The best band now,thats for sure!and i think TBK will be remembered like 50 years later!

[holdinitdowninptown]

All I can say is wow and thanks for saving the entire US from Justin Beiber and Taylor Swift. And whats the name of Jack Whites new band? The Raconteurs? They should rename that band to THE RECTALTEURS.

[sketchybananas]

@holdinitdowninptown terrible joke, and give some respect to Jack White, he's also done his fair bit in keeping rock n' roll alive

[lucasrabuffetti]

10 people don't know about music...

[oxideworker]

Awesomeness! And 10 dislikes? Fukin retards.

[phat989]

killer tone

[anicolai1]

Lovin that Tele..

[giseba7]

Detroit & Akron Rule dudes! Black Keys & White Stripes Rock! Dan's beard and Jack's tan!

[gretelthompson]

I freaking love this song....sex in music form. Check out my interpretation of it For Bob Dylan - When the lights go out ;)

[gretelthompson]

check out the sweet video i made for this song on my channel ;)

[MakeAStandPeople]

@gretelthompson

Fucking brilliant

[celticsboy75]

you can hear the hip hop inspiration in their music...i fucking love it.

[Danielpecotic]

I love the bad quality everything.

I don't know, it just makes it like 40000000 times better.

It's the way blues should be done.

[foryourlove89]

Jack White or Dan Aurbach?...Fuck it, there both kickass!

[brak25]

@foryourlove89 dan will eat jack's face, then make a bad-ass song about it

[foryourlove89]

@brak25 Not before he shits on your moms chest.

[brak25]

@foryourlove89 its impossible to take shits when all that jack eats is my jizz. oh wait, jack eats the kernels out of his sister's feces, which would produce a shit. my bad, homo.

[foryourlove89]

@brak25 you must not get laid very much...

[brak25]

@foryourlove89 you are dumb. unless you are that homo from the pasty-white stripes, there is no way you should have insulted my mom. and thanks for checking on my sex life, but your mom and i are just as adventurous as ever! she loves it when i give her a hot carl... now go back to hating life cuz your mommy and daddy fucked you out of getting your favorite xbox game this christmas. dick.

[Rumorz]

@foryourlove89 How can u question that!? Dan!

[tedcathigh]

yes, that`s music from the core as well

[chisoxbaseball24]

goddd how can you hate these dudess. they are pure rock amazing Jamss, i just wish my generation would be remembered for this and not lady gaga and justin beiber, yet the world is a cruel place where lady gaga is more popular at lollapalooza than the black keys

[interpols]

@chisoxbaseball24

oh man, that wasn't the biggest travesty at Lolla. I love the black keys but i love the strokes more. sad day when the for the strokes side is empty in compairison to Lady gaga

[baseballz]

hot damn this is good music!!!

[differentbeing]

i am totally addicted to this band. I can not get enough. Their sound is so refreshing, and hypnotic.

[SkeetsPassatB5]

@differentbeing The funny part is the sound is an old sound played through new fingers and hands, Blues will be here forever

[blackkeychucktown]

it seems everytime i get on one of their vids it jumped up 50 thousand views

[leviticusfebie]

This is real music!!! im gonna check you guys in Holland!!!

[mjchopper54]

10 ppl are retarded

[Philip86w]

@mjchopper54 Maybe it's the shitty quality of this video that fans get annoyed by...

[VOLTECH01]

These guys got sole in spades!

[raveon09]

@VOLTECH01 i thought sole was a fish

[willwelsh816]

@raveon09 sole could also be the inside of a shoe from my understanding ;P

[mommommonja]

Lets see Justin Beiber pull this shit off!!!! AHHHH omg these guys got such passion for blues/rock and roll. I fuckin love them....FUCKING.....love...the­m!!!! Cannot express that enough. Why cant more bands be like them?? Ya know what?? Im gonna grab my guitar and play harder, play better. I, too, got the passion for music. Im gonna help you Black Keys!!! Im gonna help bring back that classic sound! LADY GAGA WILL NOT WIN!!!!!! IM COMMING TO HELP!!!!

[deftox]

@mommommonja why do people always have to comment about justin bieber?

[mommommonja]

@deftox lol, I dunno but you're right. Everyones always talkin bout Beiber or Lady Gaga on these videos. Honestly I was pretty high when I typed that.

[Apopoc]

@mommommonja I think that was beautiful man, lol.

[RockYourLeggsOff]

@Apopoc Me to...

[Kr3w3790]

why is this blues so killin??? the ain't black!

[VOLTECH01]

@Kr3w3790 Because The Black Keys have Soul =D

[LilXBlueXGuitar]

When I first listened to this song, I moaned.

[deepenough2die]

you know, i don't know a single person who knows this band and doesn't like or at least respect their work. no matter if they're into black, hip-hop, metal or whatever. those are real musician creating real music. Dan Auerbach's a songwriting genius, in the league of Dylan, Hendrix, Nelson etc imo.

[RetardedWa1rus]

@MrMrdswoods

PRO TROLL LOLZOlol

[MrMrdswoods]

@RetardedWa1rus WHAT

[KaGe317]

We have 10 Justin Bieber fans amongst us.

[Shanner4]

@KaGe317 Apparently now there are 11 :P

[luke5858]

@KaGe317 thats amazing you posted your comment a year ago or so it says and theres only 11 dislikes now... that says something about this music :D

[acoffey11]

@KaGe317 now 12.

[bob35430]

@KaGe317 haha i love your comment XD

[minniwhite]

love the drumming

[Reefentertainment]

sing it!

[nursefergie]

I saw them for the 1st time at T in the Park.........they were AMAZING !!!

[allmitchell]

These guys are so amazing. I found them after I found their cover of "My Mind Is Ramblin'" by Junior Kimbrough, and through that, their album Chulahoma. I can't get enough, and even though "Brothers" is more leaning towards psychedelic rock than blues, it's still freaking amazing. I can't wait until I get to see them live in a couple of months. I can't get enough of the live performances, thanks for sharing.

[Tmistaflex]

They just doin dey damn thing!

[rohw0016]

saw them last night in minneapolis... they are the real deal. the show was packed and they put on a show that was out of this world, everyone that was there is now die hard fans...

[beenutputter]

@rohw0016 absolutely. I am living proof....

[Onepercenters]

These guys are amazing. Can't wait to see them under the tent in Boston 7/31!!!

[mrbateman00]

No music style has or will ever be "Dead?" It's only either that noone is currently creating anything good in that style, that the good stuff isn't getting attention, or that too many musicians that don't get it are trying too hard to very specifically recreate something instead of just letting it come out.

For ex. I wouldn't say that country is dead or bad even, just that the market sucks, noone that likes country has any musical taste for the most part so, no good country can thrive.

[snugglebear97653]

@mrbateman00 nah dude, country just blows hahaha

[spinnact]

full screen this motherfucker and turn it right up...fucking magical

[Vokja]

@spinnact

FULL SCREEN THIS MOTHERFUCKER

[AsteroidY3]

Great tune, great band...checkout DeepSeaGreen, The Buffulo Killers, The Fumes, Left Lane Cruiser, Heartless Bastards if you love it old skool.

[paulinesBasement]

shit man. This is so hard.

[shanerob01934]

this reminds me so much of hendrix. well, hendrix without the god-like solos lol

[WorlDmustKnoW]

the bass please....i like the way he play guitar but without bass? no don't think so.

[theveryslyfox]

@WorlDmustKnoW Really, Pat is a good enough drummer and Dan is competent enough on the guitar that they don't need bass. There's enough bass on pop radio these days. This has plenty.

[WorlDmustKnoW]

the bass please....i like the way he play guitar but without bass? no don't think so.

[WorlDmustKnoW]

the bass please...the bass

[koolsamarkand]

Fuckin cooooool

[godfarter]

Listening to the Black Keys is like having a deep soul force trying to establish a message: ROCK AIN"T DEAD MOFOS!!!!

[MrJupiterMan]

Its saying blues is far from dead too!

[JBlueMast]

It just lays low, real cool-like in the corner. Blues doesn't have to be in the forefront for it to be the glue that binds together popular music...that's how you know it's good....

[LoveisintheStars]

@JBlueMast Preach, brother. Most of popular music now can be traced back through influences to some type of the blues.

[theirresistableE]

@godfarter i'd say its blues, not rock at all really. but whatev. the sound is more important.

[auroramusicality]

there is something very intoxicating about seeing them play live. there's a trance quality that comes across particularly uniquely. dan looks almost hypnotized within the music at times. true soul. love

[fattirevsbud]

They're from Akron Ohio like Lebron James

[sgk0012]

THE AKRON HAMMER

I don't know who'll get that little reference

[austinm78025]

as a faithful member of the SN im glad to see a brother on you tube

[Morgana0x]

This song is so damn sexy.

[fearthesingularity]

They said it right.

This song resembles my childhood.

"You know what the sun's all about when the lights go out."

Sometimes sorrow showes you how to understand the wonderful things.

[pearlthirteen]

if you like listening to the black keys, man, i love you already.

[WievAndGo]

did pat ever dropped him glasses during a song? :D

[PenguinWithAGuitar]

This song is fuckin hot

[FranciscoBonito]

these guys sure like their hendrix : ) you can tell by some of the tones

[Florez531]

naturally. Any respectable musician likes hendrix

[snagillim]

@Florez531 i dont trust anyone who doesnt like hendrix

[refusedchad]

@Florez531 and dylan, or course.

[xSNOWYJOEx]

why is everyone thumbing down francisco? i can hear it as well

[FranciscoBonito]

lol yeah...I meant it as a compliment :) but to each their own views...so its cool snowyjoe,if they wanna thumbs down :)

[glynnth]

Dang, I love this band!

[Gwyneth11143]

LOVE IT

[Fififlan]

Pat's gonna end up killing sombody with his drum sticks

[imjaiu]

Dan Auerbach's guitar tone is so fucking beautiful. God damn these boys rock.

[Genocideisforlovers]

How was it?

[mandmled]

i saw these guys a few weeks ago...absolutely fantastic

[GRW22]

How were they? I will see them in 5 days

[dools324]

It's just one simple riff in general...why do i love this song so much

[imjaiu]

The Blues run deep in these two

[diego2888]

"you know what the sun's all about when the lights go out" great stuff

[shedevil92]

freakin amazing

i'd love to see them live!!

[civic4u]

old skool. great suff.

[butabong]

they're white? all this time I thought they were black

[jaygp777]

same

[ehfuckit]

same

[SpeedDemon661]

wtf?

[swrider5400]

duh, couple Akron OH. kids, lived around the corner from each other. Recorded their first couple albums in Dan's basement...... Raw, cool, and maybe thats why you thought that....

[bongochris]

wiseass says, wasn't it pat's basement?

[swrider5400]

Very good, dude, probably right. Didn't know myself other than it was one of the two's basement, assumed Dan. Anyhow, I thought it was so freakin' cool they did that, raw, especially in this day and age, where bands get agents before they actually can play... These guys are so cool..... |:-)>

[Morgana0x]

This is what I like about Youtube...hearing, discovering songs, bands you've never heard before. I love this!

[loveispeakincode]

favorite band :]

favorite song :]

[hasse0630]

i am really upset, i accidentally clicked 1 star instead of pause. its upsetting

[aussiefirestorm]

i clicked 5 stars for you hope it relives your distress

[hasse0630]

yesm, thank you

[frigger]

I just 5 starred the hell out of it too. I wish there were more stars, I love these guys.

[chilil57]

is the riff he plays form 0:16 to 0:24 part of the song or is form another song, cus my friend taught me a riff that sounded just like that and I could never find out what song its from (he never told me). But if it is from a song can someone tell me. or it could just be a random thing so i dunno...

[VanRobaysDaan]

Could have been an improvisation for the beginning of the song

anyway, they make up a good show , i love 2 man bands!

[Tappeewormy]

Why are we talking about SRv or Jack White they both are really good. Personally I like Dan Auerbach.

[HighLife124]

nice, wish the camera was in a different spot though so the drums weren't drownin out the guitar as much

[Frobe77]

awseome

[Vitovega06]

I want that drummer to solo so bad.

[snowshoetom]

KVS10 is the same as douchebag in german

[wAcKynoodlez]

The black keys kick ass! And I'm seein them february 5!!

[Frobe77]

where

???

[wAcKynoodlez]

in philly, and it was fuckin awesome!

[IdiotSpace]

yeah SRV was truly amazing im a big fan,, and so is the keys .D they are keeping the blues alive dude

Peace

[GeorgeBguitar]

I'm a big SRV fan to, :)

[Th3Turtl3]

Don't really like Bonamassa for some reason.. I'd take Jacky White over Joe anyday.

[peppermints53]

is the drummer a lefty

[indisaac1]

he´s right handed, but he sets his floor tom on the other side, it´s weird isn´t it?...

[peppermints53]

huh? ya strange, but he still plays pretty damn good though!!1

[MaddMan95]

I thinks its so he can use the Floor Tom and the Snare easier.

[lazymoon13]

This is real right here. REAL MUSIC. Thank you Black Keys.

[MicrosoftCPU2]

love it to death....

[jackson842]

Part of me is pissed off from not hearing (of) this band for the last five years...but now I have and feel lucky, read somewhere that they are writing with Billy Gibbons and Rick Rubin is producing....gotta go...got some ketchin'up2do

[siwiec]

Simply amazing

[latimer]

Here's a poll for the guitar players and sound junkies:

#1: Which BKs guitars and amps do you like the most aesthetically and sonic wise?

#2: Is there a model that you haven't yet seen and heard that you would like to see and hear with them live?

Cheers! Long live American music!

P.S. I live in China, so I don't get to see and hear all those cool models let alone go to a BK show! I enjoy hearing all your experiences... young and old alike. Thank you!

[Drtano]

long live america music

[spankynyc139]

and where are the keys from?

[GreyFoxMM]

Akron fucking Ohio!

[AOAWHATSUP]

yeh akron!!! im from cleveland though

[MickyG4444]

You do realize that without America there would be no Blues, Bluegrass, Rock and Roll, Metal, or any music that stemmed from early American Blues/Jazz/Soul.... Your Welcome Red Coat....

[vivalaking]

wanker.

[kurt5000yh]
