I'm on old fart (48 yrs old) and I think Jack White is the freakin' bomb. Saw an interview w/ him and he said they played "this crazy shit" because it was just him and the drummer, and no one would expect anything worth a crap. He doesn't give a fuck. That's why I like him and Meg.
Sometimes I feel like I haven't realized what they've realized, that's why I come here to have them set me straight again. So much for blind faith in a human.
The guitar solo at the end is probably the best I have ever heard. I have never heard a guitar solo that high pitched before. Why is this song not more popular? D:
@iinventedthequestion "they are the most powerful combination of colors of all time, from a Coca-Cola can to a Nazi banner. Those colors strike chords with people. In Japan, they are honorable colors. When you see a bride in a white gown, you immediately see innocence in that. Red is anger and passion. It's also sexual. And black is the absense of that." -Jack White
@TheSleepyHollowXx Okay not trying to be a dick, but come on, this is an electric guitar he is playing man, and she is playing a whole drum set. Like how can you be the top comment with something like that
@TheSleepyHollowXx i hope your kidding right? ...cause she definately is playing a drum set. just not in the video... idk if your using sarcasm or not.
@TheSleepyHollowXx Only TheSleepyHollowXx could think theyre actually playing the song in the video instead of prerecording it and making it look like theyre playing in the video.
some one obviously hasn't heard ickythump or blue orchid .... i personally support anything jack does.. and as for their supposed relations i personally think is was just a publicity stunt... but idk i just think jack is a very talented dude

@TheAerochick13 your ex was absolutely right. And he deserved better than you. You should kill yourself. LOL J/K I was kidding about your ex being right.
I started listening to the White Stripes exactly a week before they announced their breakup. I ended up getting all of their songs anyway, and it KILLS me to think I will never get to see them live. Maybe I'm just in denial, but I'm still expecting Jack and Meg to get back together for one more White Stripes album. It just doesn't feel like they've actually broken up, and I bet they'll come out with something eventually. Right now I'm just praying that The Raconteurs won't break up, too.

I'm really gonna miss the Stripes. I know Jack was the real talent and he has still got the Raconteurs and the Dead Weather, but it just won't be the same. The only way we will hear music like the White Stripes ever again is if they get back together and make a new album
I've always included the White Stripes in my list of favourite bands since I was eleven years old, but sometimes I forget about them. I take a break from listening to them. But suddenly I'll just get a craving... And as soon as I get back into it, I realize just how truly amazing they really are.
Four years later I am still having those cravings, and still loving this band.
@ShakeZulaTheMicRula Ahhh, yea I don't know anything about him. I just started liking them about 3 days ago. :D I found one of their songs on Rock Band 3
@2ndChannelOfSlunn16 I've been listening to the White Stripes since I was about 12, when my dad had Seven Nation Army on a CD while we were driving around. Seven Nation Army was actually one of the first songs I learned to play on guitar when I was about 14. Me and my friend did a cover of it recently. Hate to advertise myself, but you're welcome to check it out, it's on my channel. :D
I love the fact that the tambourine tapping synchronizes up with the ride cymbal, and the acoustic guitar syncs with the screaming electric guitar. lol.
i find it amazing that a man and his ex wife are in a band together. they mustve parted on great terms lol. the mutual breakup, seinfeld would be proud!
@mwhight they are brother an sister, i watched the movie "it might get loud" an jack talked about it... i was like really? wish my bro was that cool...lol
@Finchpcrepair They're not related at all. Jack White is a stage name, they were married, but they divorced and just tell everyone that they're brother and sister.
I reviewed Icky Thump as my latest album review. It's on my page if anyone's interested in how I decided the Stripes sound like the Veggie Tales pirates....you know...in a good way.
