  • 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 (:

  • 13 people don't have friends

  • 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.

  • jack johnson or die

  • Its good but I would prefer white stripes better

  • Jack Johnson does it best. Great vid!

  • great job on the video!

  • Both Jack Johnson & White Stripes rock!

    No comparison, No competition. Unconditional love.

  • Both Jack Johnson & White Stripes rock!

  • Haha so cute :)

  • I love this song!

  • This is cute, but I like the white stripes version better

  • He had to cover this song for the curious George movie he didn't choose to do it.

  • hhaahhaahaa, i could not help laughing through the whole song...!!!

  • lol white stripes aren't southern rock hahaha they're contemporary/alt blues band... lol at ignorance

  • People don't make covers to try to better or whatever, they basically show the respect towars the original artist.

    Awesome that Jack likes the stripes and nice video!

  • Nice Video. Looked like that took a lot of work lol.

  • 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

  • I hate Jack Johnson for covering this song! he destroyed a great song of the White stripes

    Fuck you jack!

  • @haendri

    Aha shut up, White Stripes are so shit. This is the only song that they've written that is acceptable and all Jacks done is made it good!

  • @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 .

  • good job it's cute ^^

  • you did a great job, can't wait to see more of your work :)

  • Garbage ass shit...nice video!??????

  • This is much better than the white stripes'. I don't like how high pitched its sung in theirs

  • 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

  • This is not how JJ sings it...the album version is wayy better. higher quality.

  • This isn't bad, but I like the White Stripes better.

  • haha this is adorable! good job on the video :D

  • Hayley..this is so cute oh my god hahaha. You're such a cutie!

  • no, no chance this is better than the white stripes

  • the white stripes are sooo much better.

  • 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.

  • NAPOLEON DYNAMITE FTW

  • white stripes SUCK!!!! this song is a million times better! no joke..

  • my school ends on monday and i loved 6th grade the best year ever this song reminds me of school im gonna misss 6th grade im now cryin

    f

  • @coolfool243 good luck in 7th grade. i hated that grade.

  • I prefer the Black Sabbath version.  : )

  • i like both versions they are great but this one seems to be a bit more freindly than the white stripes version

  • jack johnson is zillion times better

  • white stripes are better...

  • How can anyone fight or swear while this song is playing??

  • @Pareeeeesa

    your a damn shame to man.

    fck off

  • FUCK YOU!!!!

  • i hate you you fukin moron!

  • @Pareeeeesa who cares its lovely and pleasant and peaceful

  • Simpsons did it

  • the drawings aren't brilliant, but somehow it fits the song really really well.

    did you intend that?

  • the vid is cute :)

    like it!

  • Napoleon Dynamite Rules!!!!

  • i like jacks better :)

  • 0:11 FLAG FAIL!.....:Just Kidding (:

  • cool. jack johnson and jack white are two of my favorite artists. This is the first time I've heard this cover.

  • White stripes version is better than this one...to be honest.

  • @eowJose then why come watch this one? i personally like this one better

  • 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

  • great version!!! ^^

    love the white stripes and jack johnson

  • lol did you draw all that on the computer? cuz theats amazing:)

  • i've got to say that jack johnson did a better job then white stripes. even though i just found out that jack remaked this song.

  • cute video. :)

  • I actually think the Jack's version is better

  • white stripes version is better. JUST KIDDING.

  • i love the sign at 0:24 and the smilie face

  • nice drawing! much better than mine at least

  • I like both versions.

    It's adorable and cute both ways <3

  • lmao; where you smoking the herbs when you made this vidio ;D aha;
  • 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.

  • Exactly. A "RE-MAKE" is a waste of everyone's time. And Carrie Underwood doesn't help your case. You lose (your bitch has been flipped).

  • lmfao! Well, they can be made better. better singer, or audio. i like that: your bitch has been flipped THEN FLIPPED AGAIN!

  • XD i agree with you.......outlaws rule!!!!! :)

  • 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?

  • oh gosh, you're so spot-on with this. I don't even know...like...here, have a cookie.

    -hands you a cookie-

  • the white stripes version is a million times better

  • boo hoo :(

  • @oscarman422 then go listen to their vide, don't try to start shit.

  • This video is so cute!

    And this song makes me smile :)

  • white stripes made the original and it is 50000000x better listen to it

  • white stripes are so much better! <3

  • You can't mean that Jack Johnson really own this song!

  • Wow!

    I totally didn't know this was originally a White Stripes song.

    I fell in love with it from the Sing Alongs & Lullabies album.

    Hmm... I will definately give the White Stripes a listen.

    Thanks!

    =]

  • wrong, ever heard of the White Stripes? I love Jack but the White Stripes' version is way better.

  • Original writter is Jack White check end credits of napoleon dynamite if u got the movie. Nice vid btw :)

  • 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!

  • cool viedo ;)

  • I hate this version it sounds like he has a cold

  • Jack White wrote it.

    Jack Johnson did not write this song.

    He didn't even co-write it.

    Why do you guys need to make up stuff about Johnson writing it? Where the hell did you hear that?

  • Who cares White Stripes did write it and its a great song. JJ just covered it with his Curious George Soundtrack.

  • I was just annoyed by the people saying Johnson wrote it.

    Didn't say this was a bad cover.

  • are you kidding? this is a white stripes song, covered by J Johnson on the curious george soundtrack.

  • 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.
