  • Jack is so cute on this.... *.*

  • The only thing that would make this song better is is you have Animal from the Muppets making his grunts while Meg is killing those cymbals.

  • I know where this place is, its next to a school

  • MEG ROCKS! I really miss the White Stripes...

  • they just look like a couple of kids and it's fucking awesome

  • Canta como un granjero, del sud oeste de los estados unidos con un toque de olor a caca entre los dientes, importada de gran bretaña

  • @sapoflojo JAJAAJAJAJAAJAJAJAJAJ...

  • This song honestly isn't bada** it's just good

  • esto si es un desorante de bolita... un rolon jeje

  • I used to play this song all the time, Then i took an arrow to the knee...

  • Meg can get an amazing range of sound out of that tamborine. ha.

  • Meg is so beautifull!! ♥.♥

  • that rat is crepy

  • megs hott

  • @2hamboigahs if you are implying that this song is stupid, go fuck yourself. dont listen to music that you dont like just so you can hate on it.

  • im just playin along on my guitar

  • @thesplashingpebbles Same here! So simple its fun!

  • lol i love this song. Jacks lip syncing to the video was weird cause his lazy "feel" in the video didnt match the intensity of his recorded voice lol. sorry something off the wall i noticed.

  • Let me tell you this. Meg might be off beat, but that is one of the factors that made The White Stripes, well, The White Stripes. And that's not only them, a lot of the most beloved and original music groups are so good to listen to because they don't hold on to rules. TWS, Cage the Elephant, The Racounters, The Strokes, technically, these are crap. Musically, these are BRILLIANT.

  • guys if you look at the video of jacks favorite song you will see that he says it dosent matter that his hand claps are off beat or what it sounds like it the only thing that matters is the attitude of the song so GET YOUR DAMN SHIT STARIGHT DICKWADS! :) and Meg is amazing i would go lesbian for her :)

  • this song is fucking awesome I love that chorus.............

  • Sometimes players get dropped for being too good. I watched a guitarist playing covers shred the shit out of it the other night at a bar. He was really good; it was lame.

  • I love how Meg wears very little makeup if any to be in a music video and also how she has a normal body type with boobs and a pretty slender healthy weight good for herrr

  • @mmoneyitswhereitsat she has awesome jugs, and a hot sex tape =)

  • @mynameisBS98 She quite due to stage fright I would be shocked if she really had a sex tape!

  • @mynameisBS98 The sex tape wasn't her. They proved it false at some point.

  • Those that have issues with Meg just don't understand the music (or maybe music in general?). Haters gonna hate guys, let them hate whilst we love :D

  • Jack White said him self "The band wouldn't be the same if we had Neil Peart as the drummer" He even based everything around her drumming, so you can shut the fuck up now.

  • @Gu1tarPlay1ngN1nja Wow....chill out dude.

  • The simplicity of the White Stripes is what makes them so awesome!.. No Auto Tune... Nothing super fancy.. just good modern old fashioned style music!

  • i love megg's tits lol

  • How can anyone diss Meg??

  • randomly started singing this song in the shower. :) thought of my girlfriend.

  • Great tune. Meg jumping on the bed is verra sultry.

  • i like meg boobs

  • Everytime i listen to this stuff, it makes me happy!

  • Music isn't a competition. It doesn't matter how good meg is on drums it still sounds great and that's whats important in the end.

  • I wonder if Johnny Depp wishes he was Jack White...he originally wanted to be a musician and became an actor by accident. And Jack White likes to act in videos...maybr they sould trade places. Too bad Johnny cant really sing...although he did a good job in sweeny todd....

  • Simplicity DOES NOT make you bad at what you do. Get off of Meg's back already.

  • LOOOOOVE IT!!!

  • How about, I grew up 2 blocks from The Hotel Yorba. :D

  • I hate to be "that guy," but does anyone else love the hearts one Meg's shirt? lol

  • I agree that the sound does go with Jack, but still, the girl can't drum

  • Don't like it, don't listen to it. Really, how difficult is that? Let us that enjoy the music do just that.

  • My sugestion is if you dont like megs drumming go get yourself tested for downs and stab your eardrums with a sccrew driver

  • holaaaaaaaaaa!!

    

  • I have a Meg White drumstick! It was from a concert i went to its my prized possesion!

  • Love to see this pair smile at each other :) <3 Jack and Meg FTW

  • for all the people that keep on bashing Meg: Why dont you go to a Sex Pistols video and throw crap at Sid Vicious? he was a talentless junkie that even didnt played the bass guitar live and had no contribution to music in his few years of fame (while he was alive). Now he is considered a music legend and thousands of punks crave to suck his balls

  • For all those who constantly diss Meg White, here's some wisdom: If you don't know Meg you don't JACK!

  • @Avinman55 * know JACK!

  • if this song was a potato, it would be a very good potato.

  • @thecottingleyfairy

    You stole this comment from another video FAIL.

  • @thecottingleyfairy Your comment, sir, has made my day (ROFLMAO!)

  • @thecottingleyfairy WTF! Jajajajajaj XD

  • @thecottingleyfairy my day= now made. ^_^

  • @thecottingleyfairy No! If this song was a potato It would be a BAD A** Potato!

  • i don't always drink beer,but since i don't you should't listen to my opinion on it

  • Dan and Tracee Miller from Blanche are in this video!  LOVE BLANCHE!

  • Comment removed

  • this song is so catchy and simple and stay in your head forever!

  • I see everyone is still trying to push the ancient argument that Meg is a terrible drummer. Get the fuck over it already! Jack didn't want a fantastic drummer who could do 3,000 fills a second. Meg was perfect for the simplistic sound that Jack created with his guitar. Where did this opinion of "technicality = better music" come from?

  • @PeachSurebet Well, some people fancy their musical pallet refined, and to be the be-all-end-all. People who never even touched an instrument outside of 3rd grade music class suddenly now better understand music better than musicians. Anymore, people just type their opinion, and let it fly regardless of their level of understanding. Everyone wants to make their speech even if they have nothing to say.

  • @menacinggesture You're absolutely right. If people like their music to be very intricate and polished, well, that's just what they prefer. Of course, I can't change that. But discrediting other music because of their preference? Let's not kid ourselves, B.B. King and Hendrix weren't very technically sound guitarists. It's the emotion that they poured into their music that mattered and helped it become so legendary and influential.

    I'm sure you know that though. Sorry for my rambling.

  • @PeachSurebet Nah, its cool. You know what you're talking about. haha. And I agree. I've always preferred the simplistic stuff. If some elitist music snob can't appreciate the beauty in simplicity, and has to piss all over someone to make themselves feel better, well, it says more about them than it does the person they're pissing on.

  • @PeachSurebet sorry, but hendrix was definitely a technically sound guitarist.

  • @roejogan8 In my opinion, he wasn't.

  • @PeachSurebet I respect your open mind when it comes to music. We need more people like you in music. Though I have to slightly disagree with Jimi Hendrix not being technical. If he wasn't technical, then Eric Clapton's jaw wouldn't have dropped when he saw Jimi play live. It's the little things like that, that give away Jimi's technical prowness. Listen to Fire and Manic Depression, amazing guitar work. What's even more impressive about him, was that he was so spontanious!

  • @tubbythug92 Jimi played with raw emotion, which is what made jaws drop as you said. I bet there's plenty of skilled guitarists that could play around Jimi (if still alive, of course) in pure technical skill, but they would never be able to match that emotion he had in his playing. That's the point I was trying to make with one of my posts. Until now, I never knew anyone who really praised Jimi's virtuosity. He always been remembered for his innovating style more than anything.

  • @PeachSurebet Oh no, from what I read. Eric Clapton's jaw dropped when he saw how fast Jimi played. Of course, raw emotion speaks in higher volumes than techincal (to me). But Jimi had both the traits, so that just shows how amazing Jimi is. Trust me, if anyone and I mean anyone can play like him, then they must be some sort of prodigy! haha! They may know the notes/ chords. But giving Jimi didn't even sweat when he was playing all of those hugely complex solos and riffs.

  • @tubbythug92 Fast ≠ technical. I hate to burst you bubble because I'm a huge Hendrix fan myself, but really any guitar player who has 5+ years of experience can play Hendrix songs with ease. Can they make that guitar scream sex like Hendrix did? Most probably won't be able to, no. My original point was that, in my opinion, emotion is more important than technical skill in music. That's all I was/am trying to say.

  • @PeachSurebet I know, and I agree with you 100%.

  • @tubbythug92 Oh, and I forgot, cheers for liking Boardwalk Empire! Haha

  • @PeachSurebet Yeah, I use to..haha. I just think they killed off Jimmy too early. But like many said, Jimmy dug his own grave as soon as he betrayed Nucky. It's going to be odd without him next season.

  • @tubbythug92 spoiler alert

  • @fredfosterx Not my problem, brah.

  • @tubbythug92 No doubt.

  • @PeachSurebet Awesome avatar picture by the way! I can not believe they killed Jimmy off the show. Dumbest thing the writers could have done..

  • @PeachSurebet well i'd like to know who you're listening to then. damn! lol.

  • @PeachSurebet I couldn't agree more, the historicly epic songs are all the simple tunes. Once a tune becomes technical, its no longer catchy. It's easy to say someone is a crap drummer, so most of the negative comments come from people who play what well?

    White stripes do a great job of not spoiling great tunes with excess bull.... :)

  • @Psysims I agree with you as well. I much prefer a stripped down, raw style over virtuosity any day.

  • @PeachSurebet also,she used to be his wife,so....

  • @PeachSurebet this stuff is amazingly perfect, agree with 100%

  • @patrickJMT * with you, that is! : )

  • @PeachSurebet totally agree, anything else just wouldn't sound right!

  • @bluntsnhalo Exactly. I'm glad to see so many people agree with me.

  • 1:56 alright, where did she get a mouse

  • great song

  • Oh yeah, And this song is about a hotel where people do coke. :P

  • Listen. We're Not saying the band would sound MORE like the White Stripes, or a better White Stripes IF she wasn't the drummer, That could never be true. We're just saying some of the songs they play could sound SO badass-ingly much better without her on THOSE particular songs.

  • I hate these arguments about how shes a bad drummer or whatever the fuck.... ITS A GREAT SONG and thats all that matters right! When did the whole world turn into such god damn critics. Can't we just enjoy anything these days and not start a my band is better than your favorite band debate.... jeez

  • @ChicagoBulls1984 Its because some assholes think the world is an open forum, and their opinion is premiere. Either that, or they have no fucking friends, so they have to debate everyone over everything because they're dying for human interaction. My theories anyway.

  • im a boy and i have the quiet style of meg

  • the real hotel yorba's a hole....

  • I have to pee but i dont wanta leave!!

  • /watch?v=Tbl4OEQ1l3U

  • epic

  • Have you heard the PARIS WELLS cover?

  • god i love meg white

  • it sucks big times that they are split

  • my favorite song, and it was uploaded on my birthday (:

  • o yeaa

  • isnt it kind messed up to be with your girl friend in front of your ex doing a music video where you are tied to her? literally.

    Notice @ 2:01 they both are smiling then after he turned to look at her he looked kinda sad :( Dont be sad jack!

  • @NiteHuntress49 I dont thinlk its messed up! Just love them both!!! He is kinda dark and i love that about JACK!! This song and VIDEO is one of my many faves!!! WHITE STRIPES!!!!! ALWAYS 4 REAL!!!

  • @2424scout1 Ya the fact that they are very comfortable doing this shows how awesome they are. Wow you sound very excited! I want what your taking!!:)

  • is it just me, or does this song really remind you of country joe and the fish's song "1 2 3 what are we fighting for?"

  • THE BEGINNING IS SO STOLEN FROM NICK DRAKE'S "WHICH WILL". LISTEN TO IT.

  • @8scatterbrain8 you hear that, because you are an idiot.

  • @louiesmom007 you dont hear that, because you are deaf. I'm sorry :-(

  • @louiesmom007 and you can't even use punctuation, I'm double sorry ;-(

  • @8scatterbrain8 and what Nick Drake just plucked it from the ether did he?

  • @TheHappydead Nick Drake is not The White Stripes. 'nough said.

  • How the Hell could you dislike this?

  • I swear, aren't those two brother and sister?

  • @darklsn no but they are divorced.

  • @darklsn YES!

  • @The798marcos

    The white stripes didn't write jolene, dolly parton did

  • cool tune really nice..

    simple but done well

    

  • OMFG Jack is soo cute ♥

  • COME BACK

    

  • HEY, THE WOMAN WHO THE MUSIC "JOLINE" TALKS ABOUT IS IN THIS VIDEO.

  • grab hold of me cause I'm your favourite fella

  • I love how they're so serene when they're singing... dont know why

  • @Malduren i hope you realize that your criteria to measure art is kind of fucked up if you cant appreciate his band, or anyone or anything that is art. production value? really? you know who has the best production value miley cyrus i bet you'd think she was just off the chain wouldnt you, i suggest u sit in a room and listen to the album white blood cells on high volume over and over again until you repent you demonish ways

  • @dualnature69 Touched a nerve did I? Seriously though, the most basic requirement of being a musician, one would think, is being able to competently play some sort of instrument. There have been exceptions, granted, Bob Dylan for example couldn't sing to save his life, but he wrote some great songs. Also what's wrong with production values? Is it wrong to take pride in the presentation of our work? Or should we all listen to music that sounds like it was recorded on a dictorphone 'cos it's cool?

  • @Malduren idk buddy maybe you just shut the fuck up!

  • @Malduren dude stfu,stop trolling, and listen to the great song :D

  • @kawaiihimeichigo I was under the impression that trolling was a deliberate attempt at being contrary just to get a reaction out of someone; I on the other hand am presenting an argument as to why I think this band is awful.

  • @Malduren there better then you

  • @Malduren Your a plank....to say Meg White can't play drums to save her life is just ridiculous....If she couldn't then she wouldn't be one half of a world renowned band...You need to listen to their music and stop being so pretentious...Paul MacCartney was once asked "Is Ringo Starr the greatest drummer in the world?" And he replied "He's not even the best drummer in the Beatles!" But he was still part of one of the most influential and greatest bands of all time!! Dont judge a band by one song

  • @GfunkGymnast i agree with her Meg isn't the best drummer buts shes better then you

  • @AveryNerdproduction im a boy :)

  • @AveryNerdproduction thanx but im a boy

  • @GfunkGymnast Ok, but the drum parts are composed by jack white...

  • @GfunkGymnast

    Well said mate, CHEERS!!!!

  • @Malduren Jack White is one of the best singers and guitarists of all time, and the whole point of their music is that it's simple, and anyone could play it. If you listen to there songs, there very easy, but no one could ever write a song like Jack does an no one could every play these songs as well as Jack and Meg do.

  • Brill :)

  • @leveechevy Hey, fuck you. Meg's style is better than probably a million times better anything you could drum

  • Jack White plays Jack White

    Meg White plays Meg White

    Tracee Miller plays the redhead

    Dan Miller plays the priest.

    This adds up to an awesome video.

  • i hate LMFAO

  • I really love this song. It's very playful and fun.

  • thank you for writing a song I can learn to play on mandolin in about 1 minute! G C D G = :D

  • best band ive ever seen live

  • the chick is soooooo talented

    >sarcasm

  • The top comment is to long to read its not fair

  • well said,, melonka100

  • GET THE FUCK OUT BENEFUL

  • @drew199321 LOL

  • like if your my best fella(:

  • This is not what I expected the music video to be like o.O

  • отель "Уеба"

  • It's so fresh, joyful, playful, simple, optimistic, selfless, free, lovely, clearly, hateless, uncomplicated, amused, dancefull, carefree, light, brightness, filled with love and dreams, childhood, sun, fresh air, nature, friendship, trust, faith, freedom... I can write more and more adjectives but I can't catch that feeling in words. And that song is so short like that beautiful moments, that you will remember the whole life and that give you strengh to live and be happy.

  • @melonka100 Beautiful statement...

  • @melonka100 I cocor it's brill mand jolly just a happy song

  • @crazyladyKIrsty Ee.. sorry, I don't understand. Could you write that in another way?

  • 25 crackheads dont like the hotel yorba

  • G C D G repeat = Epic

  • @professorlamp That's all he needs. xD

  • Meg at the end is priceless lol MARRY ME!

  • I like the Leland Hotel, City Club, and Hotel Yorba. They're cheap places to hang out when we come up from Toledo and go to the Magic Stick.

  • I made a really cute slideshow of Jack and Meg if you wanna look. It's on my channel. I could really use opinions :)

  • wait were they split up while the band was still going on?

  • @razzyzazzy They divorced in 1999. The band stayed until February of this year.

  • @Gu1tarPlay1ngN1nja Actually they divorced in March of 2000.
