It's interesting because these songs are almost exactly the same, but they are completely different. It's amazing. I am undecided on which one is better.
everyone just be quiet about white stripes! It DOESN'T matter!!! we're meant to watch the video not just crit the song, hence why there is pictures (:
In this song Jack White's voice, to me, sounds like a child trapped in a man's body, where as Jack Johnson's sounds like an adult talking to a child. I find the former much more appealing.
Ok I dint know the orig was TWS but to me that's awesome it's like a good an evil two side thin like listen to this then 7 nation army or ball an biscuit an it was in Napoleon dynamite but jack Johnson(that'swatshesaid) has his own good songs he shoulda left this alone
@haendri You mean that you dont like it I myself couldve thought bout alot of worse artists who couldve covered a song of the white stripes, I myself love this version .
Man its so hard to choose whats better but i got to say i just like jack johnson better but i know he wouldnt have sung it if it wasnt for curious george
i don't think Jack Johnson ever tries to be like someone else in the musical department. i think this is super stellar. i like the white stripes, but i like this too. they're hardly comparable. it's like apples and oranges. they're both good. really good.
White Stirpes and Jack Johnson are 2 diffrent kinds of music.Jack Johnson is Folk and White Stipres are southern Rock?And I like both singers the same. if it wasn't for Jack johnson doing the same song as the white stripes I wouldn't have ever heard of Jack Johnson when I did, and if it was for napoleon dynamite we wouldn't have heard the song at all:D.my dad found this song 2yrs ago and We Love both Versions the same. Both Jack Johnson and White Stripes Rocked this song, Just in Diffrent ways.
theres a gentleness to jacks voice that the white strippes dont have!!even if the strippes version is very very very good jack just takes the cake home loll
What's the point of doing a cover that tries to mimic the original exactly? Jack White did it fine the first time. If you're going to redo it, you should add something to it.
Thats exactly what I thought. I never understand bands that do covers but change/add nothing.
I'm a big fan of Nirvana and love the way they would do covers. Covering bands/singers like Devo, Vaselines, Bowie and Leadbelly whose styles were nothing like Nirvana. But somehow they could take a Bowie Song and turn it into a Nirvana styled song.
White Stripes also do a good job of this with songs like Jolene by Dolly Parton and Death Letter by Son House.
he didnt change anything, but its called a "RE-MAKE"! carrie underwood didnt change anything for her song a few months ago. its fine. dont flip-a-bitch.
Maybe Jack just liked the song. As you can see this isn't professionally recorded. Is there something wrong with sharing the passion and emotion of a song with eachother?
i like the video! good job! made me smile! and the white stripes are awsome! jack white did right this song. you guys should look that the cd sleeves, it says all song written by jack white!
wow seems your cute ass vid has been over looked on both our profiles and turned into some lame ass debate about who wrote it first meh,well all i can say its hella cool and you aint gettin the credit you deserve :D,anybody thinks otherwise you know where to find me hehe
correct the white stripes released this song in 2002. jack johnson then covered it for curious geroge soundtrack. why do people keep giving jj credit for this. its a good cover but not his son.
