[masterofmariobros]

[TOREFUSE]

Sic cover...love it

[MrV1C7OR]

Pam pam - pam pam - pam pam - paravam PAM !

[Terga2010]

@MrV1C7OR Dude, I laughed so hard at this. PARA-VAM PAM!

[Triumph72]

Dontcha love when some arrogant ass comes to a vid on YouTube and tells us all (who obviously like it), that it "sucks"? You wonder what went so wrong in a person's life to think being a know-it-all pompous ass is the way to go. Workatthefarm is one of these sad cases. It would be like me going to a Barry Manilow or a Duran Duran vid and telling all their fans that they suck. Let people like what they wanna like and shut your trap.  Live and let live.

[JBiscaia33]

Wait... The White Stripes recorded something with SubPop? God Almighty.

[workatthefarm]

Fucking sucks. Cpt Beefheart is better.

[Prodi1989]

@workatthefarm you suck man, thats good stuff ;)

[workatthefarm]

@Prodi1989 Shut your UGLY gob, go open your mummy's cabinet, take those nitros and commit suicide. 

[Prodi1989]

@workatthefarm get life.

[workatthefarm]

@Prodi1989 Further proof that Prodi1989 is extremely incompetent at life.

[Prodi1989]

@workatthefarm u got nothing better to do?

[workatthefarm]

@Prodi1989 Yes, I do. But that is not the topic. Kill yourself.

[Triumph72]

@workatthefarm That's your opinion. Sounds great to me.

[barbicaine]

That guitar tone is glorious.

[BRTtrogdor]

god. the guitar is so frekin heavy <3

[rozkrokokrok]

BEEF !!!

[booooooolpusterd]

is it me or is this song NOT on itunes?

[vinniedurrant]

@booooooolpusterd This is too rude for itunes

[bbdbooya]

@CacklingPomegranate i was gonna vote up on ur comment ut i didn't want to ruin the 33 likes

[tmv866]

Dude. Holy Fuck.

[angie4josh]

Kudos to the White Stripes... they beat me to it.

[bbdbooya]

@csxtrainwreck The Denial Twist is also a white stripes rap

[emrys84]

Good cover

[UnderTheRaiin]

1 person doesn't do special things at parties

[JohnFordDanceTroupe]

This is probably how Beefheart imagined "Party" before the Tragic Band stepped in.

[Steake12]

@JohnFordDanceTroupe Wasn't the captain aiming for popularity by toning down his music by this point?

[csxtrainwreck]

@JohnFordDanceTroupe If he didn't like what he heard, he'd get a new band.

[matto902]

rip captain beefheart

[AnieSpagoo]

Sorry Jack, the original is just better.

[romaletims]

@AnieSpagoo I'm pretty sure he can agree with you on that. I don't, though

[AnieSpagoo]

@romaletims not a great fan of Beefheart I take it? :)

[romaletims]

@AnieSpagoo I meant that Jack will probably agree that the beefheart version is better, but that I prefer this one

[AnieSpagoo]

@romaletims I meant that you are not a great fan of Beefheart? :) I love The White Stripes their sound is great and this attempt isn't bad. Just don't think anyone can take on Beefheart at his own game and win. :)

[romaletims]

@AnieSpagoo I just think this is soooo much cooler =P

[Lpoolboy]

If you think The White Stripes wrote this amazing song, you're very wrong. It's a beefheart song. Check it out on youtube.

[romaletims]

@Lpoolboy May he rest in peace :<

[ThatsForHorses]

I like the live version better. The one from the basement and it's a part of blue orchid.

[nirvanalive4ever]

which are the heavist songs of the White Stripes?

[jedimasterzco]

@nirvanalive4ever little cream soda, black math, bone broke, cannon, dead leaves and the dirty ground, catch hell blues (just to get you started)

[MrSikzak]

This is basically White Stripes rap :D

well sort of :P

[csxtrainwreck]

@MrSikzak Handspings and Icky Thump is White Stripes rap

[MrSikzak]

@csxtrainwreck

Good point, but this one has a more hiphop'y beat ;)

[lpclassic60]

This made my night! Sexiest thing I've heard in forever!

[jennyheei]

i could make love to this song

[blueveins1000]

Groovey.

[PizzaFreak195]

This is great

[1zappa]

That is the heaviest guitar riff i've ever heard in my life. God bless Jack White and The White Stripes.

[whitefoxfilms]

@1zappa And God bless Big Muff Pedals. He didn't even play power chords for this, just notes! Imagine if he did chords.... fuckin Heavy man.

[Opqosite]

not bad

[mboneoneone]

I'm not really a big fan of cover versions BUT this one is spot on...

[wsfan6333]

<3 this song!!!!

[keltyk]

wonderful interpretation of Beefheart classic- doesn't try to compete with original- just takes off in a Stripey direction- as usual Jack has the power of a whole band in his playing and singing- not to overlook meg's always powerful driving

[dietmrfizz]

this sounds like his new stuff with dead weather

[thomasaburnham]

where can i buy this single....

[mauddib42]

i heart you thomas burnham

[bphstanley]

Saw a copy on on e-bay goin for $245, theres only 1300 copies...

[mikelindsey]

You got about $400 bucks cause its a limited record that only a few people have and they sell used for a shit load of money if you can even find one....Only 3 songs on it but I am tempeted to buy it just cause his Beefheart covers are LEGENDARY!!!

[narkoticus]

pr0

[WillGreenwood9]

UNBELIEVABLY AWFUL!!!

did no one tell them how embarrassing this is?

[adamberk07]

man, your ears must be up your ass

[WillGreenwood9]

no point arguing, but the original is fantastic...this is just a tiny bit embarassing...some songs cannot be covered...and Beefheart is pretty much uncoverable...successfully.

peace.

[adamberk07]

you make a valid point sir.

However!

I would argue they are both amazing..and the stripes cover le4ts you appreciate another version of a great song.

Maybe not as good as the original, but not too far off in my opinion

[08ung]

...this is better than the original 4 me...obviously is only my point of view...

[angryfurniture]

most of there old singles and b sides where impossible to ever find, and there vinyl albums and singles where worth hundres until icky thump got released. and there new record label re-released everything so nothing is worth a dollar anymore, this cd would be impossible to locate as they didnt re-release it. prob a couple copys floating around in detroit

[gla2004]

your comment sounds SHIT, or did u mean, this sounds the SHIT. cos it sure fucking does!

[V2Hovership]

Listen to the live version if you want your face melted.

[Suzy1Creamcheese]

This is actually a really good cover. [Much better than Ashtray Heart, bleh!] Really like it.

[CacklingPomegranate]

So good...of course, the White Stripes write brilliant original songs, but they also have truly amazing covers. Take "Jolene"--who knew they could make me love a Dolly Parton song? Incredible.

[OMGaSpargel]

@CacklingPomegranate this one's a cover, too. captain beefheart wrote the original

[mussman717word]

@CacklingPomegranate

Not to mention, they're one of the artists who are able to cover a Bob Dylan song and do it justice.

[MrBetaproject]

@CacklingPomegranate It was Loretta lynn dumbass

[blackmath8]

@MrBetaproject

no? it wasn't Lorette Lynn. Original song is by Dolly Parton.

[yoshemitzu47]

@MrBetaproject Jack White produced Loretta Lynn's comeback album, Van Lear Rose, which earned her an album of the year award, but "Jolene" is certainly not Loretta Lynn's song.

[ZigZagWanderer]

Great cover !

[mydarkwonderland]

this is from there album life on the flipside

[boltonlad18]

they never brought out an album named life on the flipside. This was brought out as a single on cd/vinyl.

[iluvjackwhitemost]

um yes they did...but it wasn't one of their big albums; it was a limited ammount of copies publishment, a collection of B-Sides

[boltonlad18]

can you buy it anywhere now?

[iluvjackwhitemost]

doubtfully. unless u DEEPLY scan ebay. i saw it on amazon.....9 months ago. Its EXTERMELY rare 2 c such rariety on Amazon

[mydarkwonderland]

its a rare

CD not very known to the public they did make a CD out of the singles and what not XD

[boltonlad18]

Nice one, i'm doing a scavenger hunt.

[mistressmaris]

the album exists but it's a bootleg... the stripes didn't release it. it's not authorized

[mydarkwonderland]

i know but its easier to buy the "album" instead of running around trying to find the bootleg or all the singles

[deriverocks]

awsome is this rare?because ive never heard it before
