  • @PUNKROCKLIFE1 I hate you everytime you make a gayass comment, I can' shit on ur chest

  • @XxCanadianGoosterxX I think he means that Jack makes the song better. actually a complement to the band. braaa

  • i hate jack white, everytime he covers a song, i can' listen to the original again

  • AKSDFJLKSADFJLSAKFHLWEHRLWEHRE­WKJRLKEWJ!!! AWESOME AJSDKFLJAKLWEREWLHRLK!!! !:))))))) :D

  • Brendan, you need to learn the difference between men and women's shirts

  • Jack White>everything

  • White Power!!

  • @drookloet slightly racist yet slightly cool

  • Comment removed

  • I think he is crazy

  • You guys are Pretty biased, jack sings fairly bad here, the original is better

  • @holyturdsofjesus ya but these guy use instruments and talent

  • @gkelbo so does the original. soz chum.

  • @holyturdsofjesus umm no... if the original was better jack white wouldn't of covered it...

  • @holyturdsofjesus im not a crazy jack white fan. im all about frusciante. but to judge someone based solely on the quality of their voice is absurd. wayne coyne is amazing and he doesnt sing 'well' at all. its all about how much heart and soul someone puts into a song. all music is good if it comes from the heart.

  • @Limjucas8396 just to add to what your saying, look at Bob Dylan! He isn't that that good,

    but he puts soo much love into his songs. They are some of the best songs out there.

  • @LoudnProud42 yes. 

  • I've seen this video more times than I can count and I still love it

  • jack has fucking awsome voice !

  • Brendan benson is the man!

  • ooh shit sorry for the 6 dislike...my neighbors wanted to sleep..

  • WoW! Hell Yeah! Love The Raconteurs! Been listening to The Raconteurs, Hey You!, My Chemical Romance, Sick Puppies, No Doubt, and Blink-182....

    Hey You! is still pretty new, but they're waaay dope. Pop/Rock/Punk with a real cool edge. Plus they've got a cute chick singer :-) .....check em out.....

    search "hey you band taking over"

  • jack is one of the few people who plays covers better than the original... P.S. i am not him... its just a lucky screen name.

  • 2:12 epic scream

  • I WAS HERE, its at lollapollooza thats awesome you have the video up, everyone was shocked when they played this song

  • best cover

  • @JakeFlynn96 Yep, Ringo rules. Very innovative, etc. PK as well, great all around drummers.

  • 71 people think this guy is one of the best drummers alive ...and i am SURE none of you even know who Terry Bozzio is ...Thats why Lady Gaga sells out stadiums and the Truely Great musicians have a hard time getting a gig ...Bucha Idiots probably think Meg White is the best drummer ever LOL

  • @yunwi1 Agreed, Meg can keep ok time but often relies on jack to set the tempo and initiate time changes or changes in general. A REAL drummer does not need such assistance. Its a shame drummers like Donati and Mayer are "too much" for the mainstream.

  • @misan69goon Meg did rely on Jack to set the tempo, but that was what made the white stripes so good. You always had that feeling that the guitar was driving the song and the drums just rolled on; like the music was barely together in a raw way. It worked beautifully, especially live. Listen to some of the Upholserers. They were ok but with Meg the 2 piece sound is 100x better even though technically she is 100x worse. In the raconteurs she would suck, but PK is perfect. Both good but different.

  • Leadsinger is God I understand and on the bass Nana Mouskouri, what a band and a great cover!

  • τα χει γαμησει ολα

  • Sweet jesus. This is brilliant. Brilliant.

  • Leave it to Jack to turn a boring pop song into cool!

  • Jakc White is the god of all gods!

  • i absolutly HATE the original...but this..this is some brilliant stuff. but then again, so is Jack White

  • LJ looks so tiny.. I love it!

  • and on the seventh day jack white created man

  • <3 <3 <3

  • I like the original, but Jack Whites performance is more "crazy" ;-)

  • Deepest. V neck. Ever.

    Despite that I loves them.

  • He's like the bandaid for all songs that need a little patchwork.

  • wow. i hate the original but i LOVE THIS!

  • Props to Jack for taking a song I don't really enjoy and making it kick ass!

  • Comment removed

  • Six People clearly dont understand Jack White AWESOMENESS

  • love the description u wrote!!! haha awesome!

  • capo!

  • Favorited <3

  • NOBODY ELSE THUMBS UP THIS VIDEO WE ARE AT THE IDEAL NUMBER. do not thumbs down either you assholes!

  • @gooseymoose oops sorry! :) i just thumbsuped this vid and then read ur comment :D

  • the best modern rock band around!

  • @EvaNTayloR595 It's a Gretsch Triple Jet... White's take on the Duo Jet

  • Comment removed

  • @EvaNTayloR595 Anyway he said Patrick Keeler is AMONG the best drummers, which simply means he is very good. It's doesn't mean he IS the best.

  • @EvaNTayloR595 I have actually. Live twice. Patrick was more impressive, switching between classic and contemporary handing on the fly is unbelievably difficult.

    Thanks for coming out though.

  • "Jack White = God" genial

  • Nice Supro!

  • Pure epic coverness

  • There are 6 drunk people who pressed the wrong button

  • I was there, Grant Park Chicago!!!

  • Seal and White rule!!!

  • @travis1010411 oh yes, that would be awesome if jack covered 'kiss from a rose' from the batman soundtrack

  • this is a brilliant cover O.O

  • @mustainemonster hes using a custom gretsch jet. he had it modified from a single cut away to a double cut away and had a harmonica mic built in.

    anyway, if you want more info watch "It Might Get Loud"

  • why the hell are we talking about john mayer? he has mad technical skills, but he's a douchebag who makes shitty, boring music. end of story. now let's talk about the raconteurs, please!

  • i don't know what ya'll are talking about john mayer is the fuckin whizzbang. his old john mayer trio shit was fucking godlike. yeah he's poppy as hell now, and even then had a super poppy voice, but you can't say he isn't one hell of a blues guitarist

  • Jack white put so many emotion in his voice !

    amazing cover <3

  • does any1 know what guitar jack white is using here??

  • it's a "GRETSH Triple Jet"

  • Gretsch*

  • oh, sorry

  • @mustainemonster a gretsch duo jet that he had his luther customize so it was a double cut

  • Thanks for sharing this amazing performance. And yes, Jack White is really something.

  • Woah...I couldn't think Gnarls could be beat.

  • I'm an old fart (41), but I'm in total agreement that Jack White is a brilliant artist. Really special. Not the least bit fancy as a musician, but that's part of his charm.

  • while Jack White doesn't equal God, as the description noted :-) ... i sure thank God for giving us Jack.

  • @EliteBeave  dont be so certain

  • why wouldnt you go with tooble instead....you can download youtube videos and put them on your ipod

  • John Mayer sucks but Jack White is a god

  • I say they are both great guitarists. Jack White plays faster, while John Mayer is comfortable in a more blues-y type of music. Don't judge so quickly. I've studied both musicians along with many others.

  • wtf are you talking about? jack white is a blues machine!!! his sound is dirty and heavily distorted (in a cool way) and mayer is also a blues guy, except he is a trained musician, which makes him in a way a purist with a much cleaner sound

  • @oppositeofme1 John Mayer is totally gay, Jack White is even more blues-y if you know what real blues is

  • you are indeed an idiot darthidiot

  • thanks Lord that you created jack white...

  • MEGA AGREE

  • @souzajanete230 on the 12 millionth day, the Lord said, "let there be good music," and there was Jack White.

  • @souzajanete230 Give your ass to him!!

  • @souzajanete230 and in turn the greatest bands ever the raconteurs,the white stripes and the dead weather

  • that bass player is the most badass guy ive ever seen...love the black garth hair.

  • And the wicked Rickenbacker 4001!

  • Seet Cover!

  • How could this song be a cover for a seat??? lol jk i know it is and being the raconteurs they probably could be a seat cover because jack white is jesus!

  • Haven't watched this since last winter. It's still one of the most awesome things I've seen. Yes, OP, Jack = god.

  • OMG that was so..awesome :o

  • I came like 19 times when I first heard this. Jack is my wet dream!!!

  • R U a boy??

  • Haha no?

  • ok thats fine :)

  • Creepy but true

  • so sick

  • geniously sung

  • I'm not talking about the band. >_>

  • To the guy who said White Stripes sound bad live...lol. You have to be joking. They were voted by Rolling Stone as the best live band playing now.

  • What does Rolling Stones know? Seriously? I'm not saying The White Stripes are bad live, but what makes Rolling Stones so great? Lol.

  • Nothing in particular about them, but people sent in their picks and WS were picked the most.

  • Oh, ok. If the people voted them the best, then that's cool.

  • @rawkfist208 what do you know? what makes you so great?

  • @ev1342 Really? I posted that over a YEAR ago.

  • they really are a very solid band.

    people shouldnt just focus on jack its the rhythm section that keeps them so tight.

  • Patrick Keeler is among the best drummers alive today.

  • @jmccee Thomas Haake has him by a long shot, imo

  • @jmccee id say is in the top 50 of all time

  • @BBenDiMaiOO Yeah man, I'd agree for sure.

  • @jmccee jack white is better.

  • @RossettaStoned91 i agree

  • @jmccee & jack lawrence by far the sexiest man alive ;)

    

  • This video is a to the wesome.

  • That was awesome 0_0

  • This cover gets better every time I see it.

    God, Jack is amazing.

  • jack white= god

    you = completely right!

  • Okay cee-lo green the vocalist half of gnarls barkley is arapper, he was a rapper when he debued in the goddie mob, on his first two solo cd's (cee-lo green and his perfect imperfections, and cee-lo green is the soul machine) He even rapped a lil on both st. elsewhere and the odd couple so he is arapper just an extremely soulful and talented rapper...Now that that's out of the way the raconteurs are fucking awesome Jack white is brilliant i want to see them live so bad!

  • i take that back, its pretty impressive when the white stripes do icky thump live.

  • hell no, find ONE bad death letter

  • White stripes are always better live. You're dumb

  • no hes an IDIOT..

  • keep in mind that theres only two people in the white stripes so its hard to make the sound fuller as you can in a studio with overdubbing etc

  • jack black and jack white :P

  • I think they should make an album together and call it Black and White. Wouldn't that be awesome? Lol.

  • you make me crazy mr. white :D

  • good drummer, a style you dont see much used..

    Jack White and Brendan Benson play reall good..!

  • Very true. Patrick Keeler uses a traditional grip, even in this style of music. Also love the fills. Very inspiring to me.

  • fantastic

  • The bassist is awesome so is the entire band but the bassist reminds me of this other bassist i know

  • It's Jack Lawrence. He might be the same bassist you're thinking of--he's the same bassist in The Greenhornes.

  • indeed he is god. there is no one better then him.

  • yes..Jack White is God..i love him

  • offcourse he is :D

  • Well i hope he is because ive been worshiping him every day

  • Jack is pretty much magical.

  • i love his voice with this song, and yes i agree jack white = god

  • This version is amazing. The Raconteurs must cover more songs. I want to see "Paper Airplanes" covered by them....

  • YEAA!!!!!!

  • funky looking bass player but i like his bass.i know what type it is but i just cant spell it.

  • Rickenbacker!?

  • Jeez, Brendan, eat something! He looks so thin!

  • DUDE THIS IS AWESOME!!!!!

  • I KNOW! :D I love this!

  • Their bassist has to be the coolest man alive

  • hes not cool hes grovvvvvvvvvieeeeeee

  • Got that right. :D

  • @Themusic15 yea indeed haha

  • @Themusic15 LJ is the man!

  • For those of you who are debating whether Cee-loo is a rapper or not, just have a listen to his former group Goodie Mob. The man is a rapper...period

  • i would like to have mp3 of this..anyone know where it might be?

  • limewire...

  • what ever

  • this better than that raper dude

  • rapper and raper have a little bit different meanings

  • RAPPER.

    and btw he isnt a rapper.

  • yeah clearly not a rapper.

    Just because he's a black vocalist doesn't make it rap.

    And wile I personally prefer the original I will say this was a damn good cover.
