@townie607 Its pretty disingenuous to compare Kurt Cobain with Jack white my friend. Love them both but Cobain did something Jack White can never do and thats not a bad thing...its the luxury of being born earlier. Both have their place in history...one is grunge and the other is folk/blues rock. No need to hate...love them both
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.....
... Okay, I like how some people think that this song is about "suicide." Yes, I understand that the meaning behind "top yourself" can stand for suicide, but I mean, if you actually think about the context that "top yourself" is used in... I'm pretty damn sure that this is like sexually related or somethin'... just saying... Well, that at least what I'm thinking.
Jack White is up there with the greatest; Jim Morrison, Jimmy Page, Peter Green... the list goes on until we meet Jack White... KEEP ON BURNING - PEACE OUT...
@BigJoeker pretty gay if heavily rooted in the real talent and emotion of blues is gay, whatever faggot go watch watever lame shit it is your into and get the fuck of this page
Oh man... finally not that "Oh, I'm so down cause you left me"-Bullshit. Or that "You left me, but I'm gonna make it anyway"-Bullshit. No, it's the great "Fuck you! So what?"-Bullshit kind of thing. Love it.
@thrashfan17 Dead Weather, at least for me, is something a little more... "exotic." I admit, it took some time before their songs grew on me, but they aren't that bad. I can get how White's apparently angry at the shallow US culture...
@ASubHumanOfSociety All culture is shallow, in my opinion. How can one truly assess how deep the roots of a culture are? Culture is nothing more than dwelling on dated practices of the dead traditions of the past. I would much rather focus on something that matters currently than dwell on the past. Dwelling on the past leads to failure to recognize the faults of the past. Chances are you will probably dismiss me as another youtube troll, or won't even get what I am trying to say. What do I care
@Scream7277 Culture is defined as the way of life of any society... All aspects included, like deviance, for example. I can't say that culture is dwelling on the past, because it's changing depending on what the current trend evolves (or devolves) into. What you're talking about comes to me as more of "tradition" than culture, but I get what you're trying to say. Don't judge people so quickly, chances are you'll be seen as an pseudo-intellectual elitist, or an ass. Cheer up and enjoy the song.:D
@thrashfan17 Okay first of all The Racs are still alive and well, it's just the White Stripes that are done (rip). Secondly, the Eclipse soundtrack to which you refer is pretty damn solid, and features other respected artists like Beck, Cee-Lo, The Black Keys and Muse. It compliments the film but has no problem standing alone (and yes, Twilight culture scares the shit out of me).
@thrashfan17 Third, Jack White is not becoming the "shallow US culture". Apart from the 3 legit bands he's in, he's invested in Third Man Records, collaborating with old and new artists, helping to reviving vinyl's popularity (which is a wonderful way to experience music) when technology and instant gratification have cheapened our experience with music. He seems extremely logical and ethical in his approach, so I'd personally say he's doing the exact opposite - and keeping integrity alive.
@thrashfan17 wow...its disgusting that someone could even talk about someone as talented as jack white in such a manner! I'm not a big dead weather fan myself but they are by no means a bad band how can you not appreciate what he's trying to do are you that close minded? and are you not even greatful that he gave us things like in my opinion one of if not the best album ever white blood cells?
I was sad when I found out that they broke up, but I said, "Oh well, we still have the White Stripes". Now the White Stripes broke up. *readies noose*
oh man, I really hope they get back together sometime! They had such good chemistry and a full sound to their band! Well, at least The Greenhornes are back, they're really good too!
sounds so much like led. theres one part especially that sounds a lot like the riff from traveling riverside blues. jack white never ceases to amaze me.
@Cla900 That's funny, I know lot's of girls with great taste in music. I think girls get generally stereotyped as Justin Timberlake loving groupie airheads, which is soooo wrong I couldn't even know where to begin.
@Cla900 Women often have the best taste, because there minds arent clouded with idiot thoughts like "this song isnt loud enough" or "why is this guy talking about his lost love?"
Fuck. My listening preferences range from Leadbelly to Rage to Nas but i don't think i want to listen to anything but Jack White for the next couple of years.
What I mean is that jack never actually wanted to play the guitar. It was never interesting to him. But a guitar is what was available to him. That is why he learned to play guitar. I was just saying how much better he could be if he had actually wanted to learn. But I am not saying he is not an AMAZING guitarist.
not even everyone in this band is equally as talented...saw them live...im convinced they sold their souls for rocknroll. then again i was frying balls.
