I Fought Piranhas

[ZeppelinFloydRoses]

The White Stripes wouldn't be the White Stripes if Meg was an amazing drummer. If that makes sense.

[avedic]

I honestly don't think the White Stripes could have scripted a better story. Started out with an earnest DIY aesthetic based on bringing music back to it's primordial roots. Then, this talent is recognized for what it is and the band shoots into the stratosphere of the pop music world. Soon, the band becomes legendary for their creativity while playing live. Oddly, the meteoric rise just continues and the band gains credibility and respect. Then, they end it juuuust before it got stale. Genius.

[vandelno]

i really like this drum beat no joke

[foureyes99]

Farewell, good friends. Your music will live on.

[427jim]

@ryumishima44.....I can :)

[ryumishima44]

I cant imagine being high or drunk with this song on background

[MrThepainters]

where are meg's boobs???!!

[lovemusicmzipse]

what kind of guitar is he playing

[MrV1C7OR]

@lovemusicmzipse Cretswood Astral (I don't know if that's the correct way to write it), very old, rare and hard to find guitar, Jack White's style

[saybyebye22]

@lovemusicmzipse its a rocket. i forget what brand but they are hard to find. they are very similar to gretsch guitars

[christopherad19]

@saybyebye22 @lovemusicmzipse its a harmony rocket

[saybyebye22]

@christopherad19 thanks :)

[somorastik]

what a marvelous show...

[mrrobotrain]

Hey, NickBlackDIN and itsfakebytheway... shut the fuck up and listen to the music.

[MisterRabbit78]

I would rather listen to Meg play drums than hear Ashley Simpson sing or any other horrible musician. trolls are dumb, fake ones are sad and dumb, have some balls troll. Don't be a hater because you aren't getting paid to drum badly, and have become famous for it. i'm sure she's sitting somewhere enjoying herself and not practicing the drums.

[HopefulHypocrite]

jest ripping whew guitar is just ripping definately one of my favorite songs.

[ThePauly1]

hahahaha 2:45 "you can ride your bike!!"

you rock Jack!

[me5g435rg]

one of my favorites...expected(ing)(cant remember lol) is another good one... fell in love with a girl another good one... i could go on.......lol nice post

[itsfakebytheway]

Nether it's expectation

[dugfriendly]

Jack gets his share. I don't mind watchin' Meg.

[CS71213]

Great song. Although, I'm not sure I like the change of lyrics at the end. Also, Horrible filming. What's with staying on Meg for that long? Camera person obsess much or were they disctracted by someting? Were they high maybe?

[PhoenixRising235]

I dig the lyric change in the last verse. It's like the song has two different places it can leave you. Also, jack rocks.

[itsfakebytheway]

Since we're just throwing out there what we "dig" and don't dig I'll tell you the truth: I dig your moma, cocksucker.

[samoshitt]

Beautiful song from their best album.

[thinkwonka]

get the camera off meg. the man is rocking out.

[NickBlackDIN]

but she's got boobs!!!

lol jks seriusly meg dosn't get nearly enough respect. imo

[ckim6]

music =/= eye candy.

[dadudeguy2]

it does when your name is meg white.

[itsfakebytheway]

yea for being a shitty drummer

[NickBlackDIN]

i looked at your page and your probably just trolling, but I'm gonna feed the troll anyways.

how often do you yourself drum?

[itsfakebytheway]

You motherfucker. You weren't supposed to do that. !!!

[NickBlackDIN]

sorry about that.

oh wait, should I have apologized? ;-) jks jks :P

[itsfakebytheway]

it's ok

[Nyxservant]

@NickBlackDIN Not saying that your wrong, but she doesn't do as much as Jack

[windyrhino]

Pure

[zephed69]

this is a classic

[triflind]

Megs tits look better in person

[JiS01]

ITS LOVE! <9 yapyap, they've come a long way, to conquer the world! grtz

[michalkooz33]

conquer? heh... and on the 'Icky Thump' there's a 'Conquest'!! lol

[boilermakerstud]

great song.... people who hate this band just don't get what they bring to the table

[palemegs333]

Agreed Matey, he has taken his blues influenced and used them in a mighty fine way as far as i am concerned

[3garage]

don´t think it´s the best one but one of the ever best white stripes songs

[weeduggy]

Best song of their first album: anyone agree?

[jsakine]

i liked screwdriver better

[popombie]

how I love this song

[StereoTypeA]

"you can ride your bike" nice lyric switch-a-roo there Jack. And Meg is so darling here.

[arockj]

ShayC, Whoever you are? My guess is you live in Detroit? All my friends and people & I appreciate you posting this super cool early White Stripes footage. You can see & feel they are seconds away from exploding into the world. I can see & hear the entire city of Detroit had their backs for lift off and that's beautiful.

[thingthingy]

cool, but not one of their best

[absentclone]

sure it is, definitly one of their best.

[Marlowe21]

i love how Jack starts the song and then Meg smiles with a look of approval

[todead2cry]

they make such a beautiful duo, you can tell there is a lot of love between them.

[JiS01]

loooove it!!! thx shayc!!

[shadewon]

I've been to alot of White Stripes shows and never saw that one live...thank you.

[TonyMontana5234]

yeah they dont have setlists so she doesn't know... that looks like a pretty small venue would have been awesome to be there... and meg is looking super fine as always GO MEG!

[patbarr]

thats the first time ive seen that live. good one!!!

[evilshoe6]

Seems as if Meg didn't know what song was about to come next.

[blundman21]

She probably doesn't, I heard them say in an interview that they never have set lists at any show and that they play what they feel that night.

[DeStijl333]

Brilliant. One of my favourite songs by them.
