The Fratellis - Hotel Yorba

[drtran227]

Oh My Gosh these are my two favourite bands :D I love this song so much

[Ticchick67]

@captnemo131 no discussion needed ..... this is a fact !!

[chokicou]

I don't think it's better than the original, but I'm sure that The Fratellis and the Withe Stripes, even if they're both broken, should have done a song together.

[TomAlexWhyte4SALE]

i like the white stripes one more



[QMDExperiece]

1:27 amazing hair!!

[tremeloblues]

i dont like the voice in this cover.. but it's awsm the style..

[a7x4ify]

HOW DID HIS VOIC SOUND LIKE A HARMONICA!

[ramsay97]

dead good cover- always thought he sounded like jack

wouldnt know the difference except for that top harmonica solo

brilliant

[ramsay97]

i always thought he sounded just like jack

top cover-wouldnt know the difference

[AtomicVHPunk]

I think this song really fits The Fratellis! Didn't expect that :p

[benharrison31]

a great band covering another great band got to love it

[hansmann87]

MON FRATELLIS from Germany ;D

[apskihtap748]

Better than the original (the original is really good too though) :)!

Mon the Fratellis!!!

[helterskelter1980]

Hotel Yorba Bob Dylan style! :)

[thinkbitchthink]

its not from the white stripes originally its a remake too jack heard this song and was stoked because only 2 people performing it and then he decided to form a 2-man band....check It might get loud I dont remember the bands name

[Grem91]

@thinkbitchthink Nope, Hotel Yorba is written by Jack, It was a real hotel near to where he grew up.

[thinkbitchthink]

@Grem91 yeah know I messed it up :D kinda mixed it up with another thing I guess, but didn't he write it early in his The Upholsteres time? or do I mess it up again :P

[ramsay97]

@thinkbitchthink he wrote it with two star tabernacle-theyre on youtube :D

[Puggwarrior]

*Jaw Drops*

goddamit Fratellis, you done it again

[TheBlueMoth]

Actually it's originally by Two Star Tabernacle (Jack White's band before he started to play with Meg)

[HalsRing]

The Fratellis have somehow found a way to make The White Stripes sound even whiter.

[stupidtortle]

This is cool! The White Stripes is my Favorite band and Fratellis is a close second!!! 2 of my favorite in 1!

[Crazyrockerfreak96]

veryy goooodddd. but i like the raw sound of the white stripes version. MON THE FRATELLIS

[MarkusHomer]

Aha O__o

[madmaddy94]

OH MY GOD.

My two favourite bands and one of my favourite songs have just been combined into one gigantic, masterful blob! =D

JONFRATELLIGASM

[MarkusHomer]

What 2 songs? O__o

[Crazyrockerfreak96]

omg that was rlly funny haha u rock

[jcgamer107]

Lol I just came here to post that, or something to that effect.

[imafoolhahaha]

the fratellis and white stripes are some of my fav bands ^-^

[renotsecniv]

I like this.

[fibbingcats]

beautiful guitar haha

i love the fratellis but u hav 2 admit, the white stripes version is better but so is all original versions 2 the remake

still, love the fratellis

[goshou]

While I agree that the White Stripes version is better, you can't simply say all covers aren't as good: case in point, All Along the Watchtower's definitive version is Hendrix's, not Dylan's, and the same is true of Jeff Buckley's version of Cohen's Hallelujah.

[Overdose669]

its not terrible because its different.

[matheusweigert]

very good... i like this version :)...

[funnystar44444]

they did well-

but the white stripes will always be better

-always

[reesealdrich]

and also how exactly did he fuck up the strums?

[smellslikerainbowsx3]

good but white stripes version is better.

[benhaddad0]

i just thought id add the the fratellis are brit-pop.

nothing wrong with that.

[mayfair08]

The Fratellis version is better than the White Stripes because they have a bass player. End of story. You can all go back to your lives now.

[kevsickboy]

oh yeh,you win that argument soooo conclusively...you fucking idiot. the fratellis do have a bass player,you are right.unfortunately he is in the worst fucking band around. clueless imagination free pub rock for people without taste. now go back to watching paint dry ,stamp collecting and listening to the dullest music ever made.

[mayfair08]

If you don't like the Fratellis, then why the hell are you listening to them?

[kevsickboy]

i saw they had covered a decent musicians work and wondered how awful it would be.

[kevsickboy]

...and in the spirit of fairness i'll be honest and say its not that bad.better than i expected.

[mayfair08]

well duh.

MON THE FRATELLIS!

[kevsickboy]

tho they still suck and always will.

[thefolgers]

in your opinion. as long as you realize that. in the spirit of fairness right?

[reesealdrich]

and don't get me wrong, i love the white stripes

(also who the fuck ever called the fratellis anything close to pop, you are retarded aren't you)

but there are a few reasons that they suck: Meg white

Jacks limited vocal range and imagination

They have done nothing but dive away from the music that me and everyone else love them.

did i mention that meg white sucks?

now the raconteurs

that was a good band

Jack should have stayed put.

and so should your little inexperienced fingers my son.

[mayfair08]

ohmygosh that was AWESOME! and those are some really great pics! I heart the one with Jon wearing the glasses, heehee ^___^

[benhaddad0]

personally i like the white stripes version bteter.

for the record im a fan of both artists.

i just think this version is too fast and too heavy.

[reesealdrich]

suck it its the same speed and Jon blows Jack out of the fuckin water 'mon the fratellis!

[benhaddad0]

I'm obviously talking to a connoisseur of music...

-rolls eyes-

ever heard of something called subtlety?

This lacks it, the white stripes version has it.

And I'm sorry but John does not blow Jack White out of the water.

[benhaddad0]

The last time I checked samey indie-pop really couldn't compete with the originality of the white stripes. The fratellis are good to listen to, the white stripes are good to experience. I'm happy to let you sit here and listen to them and have your own opinion.

Oh and by the way you obviously know very little about music so maybe next time you make a comment about anything about music (especially something as basic as tempo) you should check with someone who actually knows.

[reesealdrich]

uh yeah, I'm actually quite the musician. and its the exact same tempo

you sir, are a fool. Jon is simply rocking the shit with a guitar, something jack can only do with a foot petal.

[benhaddad0]

ok, im not trying to bag you out personally (or maybe i am, you decide) but heres the thing, if you just go through the comments to peoples videos putting people down for having an opinion, you're bound to get a few people wondering how you've had the time to become "quite the musician" when all you seem to do is sit on your ocmputer and have a go at people you don't know for having an opinion different to your own.

how about you grow some balls and come over here and argue with me.

[reesealdrich]

haha probably because i didn't have to try at all, I just know what to do on guitar, bass drums, and anything with or having to do with strings. it just comes natural. Just like jon. PS i see that since you didn't mention it again that you realized how wrong your tempo argument is.

haha this is the internet dude, don't take it personal. now you really look retarded

[benhaddad0]

haha wow did you consider that i didnt mention "how wrong" my argument is because it isnt wrong. there is a subtle difference in the tempo you fuckwit and thats what makes the fratellis version of this song sound rushed, or maybe its jjust that john has a fucked up strum pattern. For the record i play all those instruments too and it comes natural to me (im self taught)

like i say, i dont take it personally, i just find it funny that your entire life consists of you lookinf for people

[reesealdrich]

haha oooOOooo I'm self taught too, in fact it took me only six months to get to the point where i could blow you out of the water.

and I don't take it personal, i find it funny that you say that I'm strangely spending a lot of time talking back and forth you when you are doing the same thing, I don't have a lot of free time, this video is on a playlist I made because its better that most songs out there. and they may be popular but that doesn't make them pop you'd know that if you were any good.

[reesealdrich]

there is a big difference between subtlety and trying to sing out of your vocal range (jack white)

and Jon Fratelli made it sound like the country song it had the potential to be.

and yes he does

by far in voice and guitar my son.

[ainsy17]

I adore the Fratellis, but nothing beats Jack White and his amazing original

[Dan1elJoyce]

MON THE FRATELLIS!

[rubyOXO]

white stripes do it MUCH better

my opinion may be biased because i LOVE the stripes and HATE the frattellis tho.

[lonelyspanish18]

man do you really hate the fratellis?? whY?

they wouldnt hate you hahhaha

[reesealdrich]

How can you hate the fratellis? you must be a puff

[brianyi14]

I love the fratellis,

I love the white stripes.

And they absolutely nailed it with this song! Spot on.

I honestly cant decide what i like better, the original or this one.

[Congamasternick]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO leave it to the stripes. this is garbage.

[AlyonaMatveeva]

its not garbage! The white stripes-really garbage.....

[skillageguy]

The White Stripes are far from garbage (you're forgetting who wrote Hotel Yorba in the first place) Jack White is an immense guitarist, and amazing songwriter.

[AlyonaMatveeva]

I remember who wrote this song. And why you abused the Fratellis?

[skillageguy]

When did I ever insult the Fratellis? I'm just saying that credit goes to Jack White for writing this.

[AlyonaMatveeva]

Sorry, It was for Congamasternick.

[ravenouspali]

cool

[1313elijahj]

theres a bunch of pictures with u and the band

[naomifratelli]

Aw, that's not me - they are randoms!:P I made this video before I met them. If I had made it after I had met them, then they would have been a bunch of pics with me and them! ;)

MTF x

[1313elijahj]

how many times have you met them???????

im jealous

[calmlittlehip]

the white stripes do it better :/

[LuluFratelli]

Possibly my favourite White Stripe on the White Blood Cells album. And for my favourite band to do a cover... A rather amazing cover too ;)

MTF xx

[srhbth]

Haha, love the photo at 2:15!

[teenagekicks444]

I see alot of Mr Jon Fratelli in there Naomi ;)

Mon the Fratellis.

Best cover in my opinion.

Jasmine

xx

[adamparsonson123]

loves this song!

[SamNUK]

Great cover

[gouge97]

Tough to get blown away that much by the cover of a song you consider to be originally perfect. Great great job the Fratellis, this is beautiful and refreshing.

[kaitie07]

fantastic cover of a fantastic song!!!

[purdy1985]

nae offence tae the guy, but that mince dude looks like a homeless junky! nice tune though

[dtrocks6]

brilliant song.love both versions.did whitestripes cover it or write it tho??

[submison]

The White Stripes wrote the song, and the Fratellis covered it.

[mchl2slh]

Great song and cover! two great bands! Love the new album by fratellis!

[samerika]

omg awesome cover!

[Nawanse]

This is really good. Especially as Jack White has such a difficult voice to try and cover. I like the way they manage to keep it the original and yet make it their own at the same time, but not copying the vocals exactly.

Yeah. Mon. Oh dear. I fear they've started a new trend amongst us Fratellis fans.

[tommydomm]

That was really actually really good :)

[dtrocks6]

brilliant song.and the fratellis are unreal.nice upload

[bauwong22]

nice. i like the way, they play white stripes

[lostandthefratellis]

this song is beautiful!!

[xlisax2006x]

amazin video naomi :)

the fratellis do a great cover of this song xx

[gyfanni91]

Is it a fratellis song?

I haven't heard it before.

But it's good.

It must be good, because it is a Fratellis song.

Mon the Fratellis!!!

[naomifratelli]

No it's by the White Stripes really, but this is a cover by The Fratellis!:P

Mon xx
