My Doorbell (Live @ VH1)

[radiumskys]

thumbs up if you get the shivers at the end :)

[tmanx1]

if u dislike this eat a cock and die.

[baxatak]

Right hand to God he looks like Johnny Depp's brother.

[alexjippo]

Make a sound and I'll make feel right..

[Betters4Millions]

Robert Plant ain't got nuthin on jack

[edmdrnprmths]

that piano sounds like gold

[bestvidsdottk]

@edmdrnprmths it's cause its a Steinway!

[Taud]

@edmdrnprmths i like the little overloaded synth way better! : P

[mothulicka]

that is one cool cat..i tell you what brother

[mrwonderhow]

All stripes songs live are better stop being so suprised

[modaddyicedawggyT]

I just watch this and smile.

[lucasppramone]

fucking awesome



[mynmyself]

love how minimalistic is this one... although jools holland gives it a pretty damn cool chill with his nice jazz piano skills... jack seems a much more limited pianoplayer, which in many ways is really cool

[5sagen5]

i have goose bumps DAM! i love the White Stripes!!!!!!! THANK YOU!

[ebelskivers]

Major butterflies right now.

[shaystamang]

anyone know what Rhodes model that is he's playing?

[RayManzarekGod]

@shaystamang Fender Rhodes Piano Bass, blacktop post 1971 model.... Ray Manzarek from The Doors used a '66 Goldtop Model and later a '66 Silvertop model...

[waitingformypopcorn]

Jack White= Johnny Depp's greatest acting role. He's gonna win an oscar soon. sorry, lol.

[YoungAssassin28]

lol i love how the camera just zoomed in on megs boobs at 3:03 haha

[unpolle]

Jack White = genius

[skaterdoode10]

jack white is a musical genius

[alahossain]

whatabadass

[tagc1136]

my favorite musician and im not fucking kidding nor exagerating

[calebyourmaster]

joeho...you arent alone...im not gay...but dang...this dude is amazing.

[Timeconsumer9]

what kinda piano is tht on top of the grand piano jack is playing? has a kickass distortion to it! i want one!!

[TheLlawlliet]

@Timeconsumer9 it appears to be a Fender Rhodes

[homePicShow]

@Timeconsumer9 Fender Rhodes Bass

[StevesGuitars]

@Timeconsumer9 It looks like a Fender Rhodes Bass version, quite possibly run through his Electro Harmonix Big Muff Pi.

[wootoodoo]

@StevesGuitars I think he's also using his electro harmonix pog to get the octaver effect

[Imafreakypeep]

why isnt meg on her kit for this? it actually has a druming part and its really fun to play. BTW im a girl and i love drums so fuck of anyone who thinks girls cant play!

[TopppieJopppie]

@Imafreakypeep

Im a halfling playing the flute, dont be dissing me and my little friends

[aledobretociastko]

@Imafreakypeep Girls cant play. Fuck me

[losmononos]

whats that symbol on his neck?

[jerrygarciabear90]

wow i can't believe people actually care about what he uses. he uses what he wants to make it sound the way he wants. you're thinking too hard about what you're seeing just listen to the song and be happy.

[greendayc1n]

Wait im confused. He doesnt use cheap equipment, only what he needs right? Because he is like super good and doesnt need any help

[KATE24211]

eyes 1:26 - 1:29 =)

[TheDireStrait]

It's not cheap equipment...but he doesn't get more than he needs, thats why he uses cheap guitars..he doesn't need an expensive one for his sound. Maybe he just likes Steinways though xD

[austinhurtis1]

cheap equipment are you kidding me? guitar at least 4 grand amps pedals n watever he uses at least thousands. he makes em sound right

[GlassyDream]

@number1EVHfan The piano isnt his, they wouldnt lug around a full sized grand piano on tour man, think about it, it would just be out of tune all the time and definitely get damaged.... they rented it with the locals like most bands do, they never had much money so he is used to the equipment hes always had access to which is lower end

[GlassyDream]

@number1EVHfan o rly? where was that? You've probably seen other videos from the same concert man....

[GlassyDream]

The related videos at the side are all from the live @ vh1 thing man, and on the jools holland one it isnt even the same piano.... if it was lugged around on the road it wouldnt look and sound the same, its not hard to call in a grand piano from the local stores when youve got record companies behind you

[GlassyDream]

@number1EVHfan Yeah that's what I thought....

[MrAlfredocolon]

god damn mr white can do everything. every guy on the planet has competition. that dick. lmao jk

[omfgRyan]

lmao. thats was a good laugh.

[theodancergurl]

Jack looks like such a creeper. haha =)

Distorted piano = pretty dang cool

[TheLutherCowboy]

I think if you listen to a live version they dont hardly ever sound the same as a recorded because the record versions are always ''fixed'' but they do a great job on this one if you ask me.....

[NickBlackDIN]

actually jack has mentioned in a lot of interviews he purposefully to always give something diffrent at every concert instead of giving something you can get at home from your CD player.

[mitchparr]

This is not as good as The White Stripes with the music video, I am weird though :)

[TheLutherCowboy]

I love this song, and this band

[grigoridj]

what has he done with that poor rhodes? :P

[tommorellorules]

@grigoridj I think he's put it through a distortion pedal

[nobandages]

meg looks bored : <

[Bullzeye95]

Meg always looks bored. She's supposed to be. She's the angel, he's the devil. Note the colors. Meg's in white, Jack's in black, and the instruments (except the piano) are red. They're big into the significance of colors.

[joeho318]

i have a man crush on jack white

[ThoeryOfaRocker]

i have a girl crush on him. lol

[gdzilla16]

@joeho318 me too

[joshyboy152]

what a dirty sound when he plays the rhodes piano.

[TheRockinRobinson]

Great performance.

[mitchparr]

I most definitely prefer the full Whitestripes one.

[Pianoman0488]

I'm addicted to this one. They both kick some serious steering wheel hitting ass though.

[xungalamunga]

what do you mean full whitestripes? They are only two and they rock :D

[jorgeverallosa]

jack has a espectacular voice

[freshprinceofbalham]

dude can sing

[dmonkeyland]

That, my friends, is called stage prescence.

[Godboy4]

WOW!

[sheepers411]

When was this filmed?

[ToTaLyPoMo]

This song is amazing.

[maria7091]

great video!

[TheTastenTier]

how does he make this sound with the rhodes?

[MrSikzak]

Because he's badass.

[Breakbeatz2591980]

rhodes bass through a tubeamp.

[mingatuchadre]

and a big muff !

[Maiida7]

is like an acoustic xD

without drums..

[sickpuppy4o20o1]

thank heavens

[shinytoygunrunner]

jack is SOOO friggn talented!!!

[19Franzi86]

i miss the drums.

but i think he is totally sexy. i love his voice!!!

[Rationals]

pure magic

[TwistyTiesGH]

I love their style, totally wacky, off the wall, catchy tunes

[amanogingi01]

Not the same thing without the drums ... :/

[Taud]

@amanogingi01 she has anxiety sometimes and doesn't want to play drums... its why they broke up

[nckp44]

@amanogingi01 meg gets tired too!!

[holhurkytn]

it IS bling...hmmm...?

[vatoloco314]

bang it?

[QWAAAsaxdude]

brring it like brrrrring!!! mebe the sound of the doorbell idk

[TheJamesTrain]

Why does he say 'I've been thinkin' about my doorbell when you gunna bling it' most of the time?

[boburnhamsucks123]

"When you gonna ring it?" you tool

[TheJamesTrain]

No, you're missing my point.

I know the song, I'm saying he pronounces it 'bling it' most of the time, you tool.

[Squirelpie]

you're right. maybe he just likes the sound of the word, or there is som e hidden meaning. dont know

[LillyCandyCane]

He never says 'bling it'. I suggest you get your hearing checked... Or use the almighty google and actually google the lyrics?

[TheJamesTrain]

Read, I know the words he just sings it differently.

You're a cunt, google it if you don't understand.

[11796]

I think he says "I'm thinking about my doorbell, when r u gonna ring it". Does that make some more sense 2 u?

[boburnhamsucks123]

the man is a major tool

let us not dignify it with an inteeligent retort, instead resorting to childish and immature insults... errrr.... poo face XD

no burnham

[TheJamesTrain]

You're a fucking moron.

I know the song, I searched it, I know the words, I sing along to it.

He says it like 'bling it' not ring it.

He pronounces it differently and if you can't hear the difference you're, as I said, a fucking moron.

[boburnhamsucks123]

ur a fukin douche if u do actually sing along to it like a ultra fag prick then u would kno its ring it not bling it u tool but i'll let ya off lighlty since ya do appear to have low level down syndrome

[TheJamesTrain]

Haha wow, okay yeh I just realised that I'm arguing with a child so I'm going to stop.

[TheJamesTrain]

Anyone who can hear properly knows this.

[bddb9]

wow dude no one should care that much about the lyrics to a song.... get a life

[cornyking1992]

he said bang it by the way being gay is not a bad thing i may like girls but i wount go permit gay bashing

[tchance2007]

He actually says "ring it" on the album but "bing it" in this video

[betaBoomer]

is that the same dress she wore on conan's last show?

i love when he says 'right at home yeah'

[SHAUNIEEandABBIEE]

Woooo

They sound soooo gud livee!

[GerSHAK]

That organ thing on top of the piano that sounds like a distorted guitar sounds AMAZING.

[Misiekcameraman]

Because it's distorted :P

[drunkamelie]

awsome! jack is the best! :D

[diamondsea3]

I love it at the end when they look at each other :)

[samishere2k9]

the white stripes are sooo talented

[Xbox3602424]

Jack Rocks.....he always gets so into it

[Xbox3602424]

dude jack rocks and i want the hat too and also jack looks pretty tired.

[bifpolle]

its so awsome... i just play it alll the time... it sound so great..

[HoemHaa]

i want that hat !!!!!!!!

[Stra2casterAtHotmail]

He looks like Shaun Morgan from Seether lol

[kelly92970]

LOVE 1:58 - breaking down... best ever

[1591]

fuck they look tired.

[STEVEISTHESTUFF]

hahaha it makes me laugh everytime at 1:29 watching his face. haha he gets into it so well. haha

[krissdvii]

fender rhodes piano bass 1975....kool shit..unqui sounds

[kingaxl666]

love the fuzz box

[pastrami31]

If you don't like this video you smell like pee.

[finestreo]

los acordes son F Bb Eb F Eb F y depsues hace Ab.

[7fineas7]

What´s the name of the synth he plays?

[studiobalagan]

That's a Fender/Rhodes Piano Bass. He's using it with some kind of distortion.

[notheoneyouknow]

in my opinion, it could've sounded a lot more groovy. without the drums he sould've used a guitar, sounded kindda dull.

also, i'm a fan, but jack always sounded WAY better in studio than live.

[imafoolhahaha]

no not at all.

well maybe now, considering the thing that happened to his vocal cords..but here...no

[notheoneyouknow]

whatever.. i didn't like it. i think this whole VH1 session was a bit dull. it wasn't melodic, it was like he was talking instead of singing the whole time. he also slipped at 0:36 lol.

[BrownUPSman]

im gonna have to completely disagree with u notheoneyouknow. respectfully of course.

[notheoneyouknow]

oh well. it's alright. i probably should've stayed sush. the thing is when i leave a comment i try to write something with substance rather than that brainless "omg! awesome!" like the 50 ones up there.

still think this was dull. cheers :-).

[BrownUPSman]

without ppl like u these great discussions would never get off the ground. i can see why u see this performance as dull because its not as upbeat or electrifying as some of their other performances. but i think it just proves Mr. White s versatility as a great musician.

[yipeekayyay]

It's all preference really. I agree it had very little soul, which is a big thing with the Stripes and the main reason I like them, but this seemed like more of a rehearsal session then any genuine performance. But with all of that in mind, it still sounded good to me.

[edmedmoped]

Yes it seemed like quite a tired performance. Still top notch sound though.

[imafoolhahaha]

what the hell...im pretty sure jack laughs at 52 seconds for some reason lol

[markgregsputnik12]

Does anyone know where I can find sheet music for the piano part for free???

[edmedmoped]

Google?

Type in 'my doorbell chords'.

It comes up with loads of websites.

[notheoneyouknow]

this one is very easy to get by ear. it's only three chords: E A D. and he plays a B in the bridge.

[aravartanian]

I hear an F then Bb then Eb F Eb F. He only uses chords from the pentatonic minor it seems.

[ilovejackandmeg]

Yeah!!! Rock out on tambourene Meg!!!

[Curnyn]

Where could I find the rest of this set ? ^_^

[claytoncoyne]

It's all on YouTube, only a few songs though... Ball and Biscuit, This song, Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground and an acoustic version of the Denial Twist. They're all pretty good stuff

[bazylass]

I'm thinkin' about my dope man

When ya gonna bring it, when ya gonna bring it

XD

[moloko89]

that gave me a laugh

[tremeloblues]

omg.. i noticed when jack touched meg`s leg to stop the tambourine.. i got excited..! hahaha at 1:44

[relest]

fucking great!

[Taojas]

Awesome

[embalm]

he is the fuckin man!

[Shayhaters132]

awesome!!!!!!

[TheWhiteStripes4life]

JACK WHITE IS AWESOME!!!

[suesoch]

I saw him in "Shine a Light" singing "Loving Cup" with Mick. !Ay Carumba!

[Kowaretemo]

This recording is great! Thanks for bringing this to light :D

[todayxxx]

Perfect, beautifuly .......... JACK (L)

[FRAT99Po]

Anyone know the chords. I wanna learn this.

[alexjippo]

E A D E but i can only play it on guitar.

[nonlethalbychoice]

wait... he says BING? not RING? that so wierd, i coulda sworn he said ring.

[jordy19691969]

WHAT YEAR WAS THIS

[wellexusemeprincess]

05' or 06'

[goodcharlottefan529]

meg gets left out all the time

its a shame to see talent like that put to waste

[gggnarly]

what are you talking about ive never seen a better tamborine, pure class she is on that red shingle

[swimlonely]

meg's actually really shy. she doesn't like the spotlight too much. have you seen interviews with the white stripes? she barely contributes at all.

[buggyre]

omg he cant be compared to jimmy page..

[mothernaturesson88]

why would he wont to?

jimmy page stole all his riffs from great blues guitarists before him.

so glad that Willie Dixon took them to court for that :) oh and won

[INTJ24]

I've been thinking about my doorbell

when you gonna ring it ?

[mtjurek]

only for wholle lotta love. and it was not the music but the lyrics. every guitarist or artist was inspaierd from someone else.

[irocku1988]

i <3 white stripes!!!!!!

[WhiteStripes1993]

fuck you

[cowchaser1319]

this is some good shit

[bleasher]

Jack White is amazing. A columnist from the New Yorker actually compared him to Jimmy Page. Is that sick or what?

[yerqw89]

Check out his face at 1:27. The White Stripes are awesome.

[kilt]

omg the devil has occupied him xD

[xlive4rock]

As much as i adore the white stripes, this preformance wasn't their best.

does jack sound a little sad to you?

TheWhiteStripes<3

[zerowhitestripes]

im a huge white stripes fan

but this song just isnt the same with drums
