The Raconteurs The switch and the spur

[naogostodecafe]

Esse solo é muito foda, essa música é GENIAL <333

[captainfunkable]

If you enjoy this ace song get into Brendon Benson. His music is tits.Jack must think so 'cause (in my opinion) the best songs on the album are sung by Brendon

[TheAlistairDick]

@captainfunkable Great to hear someone speaking sense. Benson is a genius. Even Jack thinks so too

[vader497]

This song seems a lot longer than it is... Maybe Ive entered a euphoric time-space loop... Oh well.

[snakespan]

@MarcoJ1990 watch?v=9g7-jPmKS0I&feature=re­lated

[snakespan]

Isn't this a cover of the Untouchables theme song?

[MarkoJ1990]

@snakespan watch?v=Hu2FekMaTQc ?

[bunnyman1996]

@snakespan i think this came first... 

[GingerTheCarrotTop]

Worst Raconteurs song ever... but as Thumper the rabit from Bambi would say, "If you can't say anything nice, then don't saying anything at all," or maybe it was my Mom who said that... ehhh whatever...

[mymusicjeter]

@GingerTheCarrotTop What's wrong about it dude ?

I think this song is awesome but I can't understand lyrics tho.

[roqueofspades]

@mymusicjeter It's about an escaped convict who escapes from jail through a desert which holds poisonous creatures that'll sting you 'dead on sight.' He'd apparently been warned never to go through the desert.

[GalaxyAblaze224]

Freak yes. Great song. Great band.

[RememberInsanity]

...you shall never return.

[TheAlistairDick]

The catchiest song of all time

[gamer1330]

jack white should write books, i would defiantly pay $50.00 and up for a book of short stories by him, whos with me?

[AbaratFox]

3:00 and on is my favorite part.

[SandyPrincessPatty]

This is amazing. One of the best songs of one of the best albums of this year. Jack White is a fucking genius.

[TheAlistairDick]

@SandyPrincessPatty Eh Benson is the genius who wrote this song - the best song on the album

[CrossTown0]

Brendan Benson sings this one fools. Much love to Jack White but tip a hat to Benson. Brilliant.

[TheTreeHosue]

The Raconteurs are awesome and if you have a problem I will fuck you up.

[TasteTheSilence]

my mind got blown.

[lot24]

This and Keller Williams' version are equally as awesome.

[Zilnix]

awesome song!

[Ichigoyagami]

2:11 Beggining of an Holocaust 

[ilikenofx22]

I come on to youtube just to get total strangers' opinions about music I already know I like, and to tell everyone which band members suck and which ones are good.

[Caramelxcakes]

2:38-2:58

Gets me wet every time....

[jcgamer107]

@Caramelxcakes YES

[hoodus61]

this sounds like the sountrack to a western

[evinism]

@cizcan and @afireinside912

I love music. I think you guys should appreciate it. Gosh, guys! This is youtube! Not a battleground! Wait, scratch that. Nevermind. You guys have your fun, I'll listen to music.

[TheAlistairDick]

Benson is a genius. White is lame

[jmcieslak0]

@TheAlistairDick blasphemy

[birum18]

@TheAlistairDick anddd who's band is it again?

[TheGrungeLives]

2:38-3:00 gives me chills like no other. It actually made me twitch. Gotta love The Raconteurs.

[21stCentSchizoidFan]

We can't forget about Pat Keeler!! Very underrated drummer.. He did help Jack out a lot on the drums when he was forming The Dead Weather!

[Wallnut072]

fn raw! Epic! big ups Nor Cal

[Cizcan]

This album has a lot of decent, good, memorable recordings, ones of which I cherish...and then it has this gimmicky song, which I fucking despise. Haha, this and Many Shades of Black make this album a miss. Thank God for Hold Up, Top Yourself, Five on the Five, Attention, Pull This Blanket Off, Rich Kid Blues, and These Stones Will Shout. (Salute Your Solution's ok...) But I really never liked Brendan Benson in this group. It's like giving Ringo a guitar and mic...it can only go on for so long.

[Afireinside912]

@Cizcan

Umm this is one of the best... Pull this Blanket sucks, Attention sucks, Five sucks...

But i guess it just depends on taste...

I didn't really enjoy some of the album but this, many shades, rich kid blues, and couple others are the album savers.

[Cizcan]

@Afireinside912 You're really gay.

[Afireinside912]

@Cizcan

You wish.. sorry you can go have sex with your dad now.

[vinniedurrant]

@Cizcan Your one of the incredibly exeptional few that don't like the switch and the spur.

[rls67]

@Cizcan I like how you listed two of the best songs on the album and said they were the worst.

[TheAlistairDick]

Brendan Benson is better than Jack White

[CaseTake1]

@TheAlistairDick I like Benson and I like White, but it doesn't seem right to compare two great artists, especially if they're good friends and partners.

[jahpeople94]

this band is great the whole band is great. most of their songs are different styles of music and they can pull it off. both of their albums had songs i didn't skip the whole thing was good.

[lopperfield]

2:38

[zdouglas88]

@lopperfield

love the solo

[tylenol2k7]

simply amazing. when are they coming out with another album.

[arbitraitor621]

songs dont get much better than this!!!

[awesomepossum890]

man i'm so lucky, i heard the raconteurs cause i was in the car with my sisters best friends boyfriend...and he was listening to this song in the car so when i got home i googled the lyrics...thank god for all 3 of them for introduceing them to me indirectly

[JoeyRamone129]

Jack White is the best!

[shredr18]

The Raconteurs has been, by far, Jack White's best project. Such great music

[HumanityIHate]

This song is amazing! Jack White has crazy musical talent and Brendan is just beast at singing!

[lpmcgaha]

Awesome song, and one of Jack's better solo's as well. I really think The Raconteurs could be the best band since Led Zeppelin broke up if they would stay together and work at it. They are magic together

[ChUcKBThe13tH]

@lpmcgaha the fact that you mention the mighty zep is amazing!!! jack white and the boys are defenitly a great rock force!

[99Wink]

Everything Jack White touches turns to gold. It's amazing.

[Dinamidante]

Masterpiece.

[metrostationrocks]

very rarely do you hear something as good as this and then find out that it's from this era. Jack can do no wrong. every music endeavour is extraordinary. long live The Raconteurs.

[austineric38]

great song

[hornsofdavid]

i heard this song on XMSurius radio... I stood still, thinking I was close to heaven. I looked around, and found that I was still in Emmittsburg, PA.

My brain has heard the angels' music. Now I can die.

[Skinhead3456789]

The White Stripes and Raconteurs are both pretty fucking badass i havent listened to much the Dead Weather tho

[dgendron12383]

@Skinhead3456789 The Dead Weather is average and are no where near as good as either the white stripes or raconteurs

[redcrimson718]

@dgendron12383 I agree wholeheartedly. I feel like "Icky Thump" could have been better, though.

[tylenol2k7]

@dgendron12383 amen to that. the dead weather is a good band, but they cant touch the Raconteurs.

[Tom123collins]

@Skinhead3456789 Check out "Will There Be Enough Water" live at the Roxy. Fucking epic performance.

[mrsmileyzip]

JACK WHITE IS FUCKING COOL. This song is amazing. YAY FOR THE RACONTEURS.

[imafoolhahaha]

This song truly is amazing.

[mistahowe]

jack white is like this generations Jimmi Paige

[Chickidydow]

Well lets calm it down there a bit, White's not bad, but he isn't Zeppelin good. This song is really great, though.

[VinnieG690]

@mistahowe jack white is this generations future iconic rock star

[vinniedurrant]

@VinnieG690 True dat.

[zigzagjoe69]

@VinnieG690 hell yes

[fgvmochica50]

@VinnieG690 True but this song is Benson's ;)

[R0CKnR0LLRALPH]

@fgvmochica50 i know he's such an unsung hero

[volkoblade]

great song

[lilmorms]

Has to be one of the coolest songs I've ever heard...I've been trying to find it forever and finally! Awesome music

[Robinzorz]

@lilmorms you should by the album;)

This is my favorite song on the album, but all songs are really good.

One of the best albums of the past decade, I'd say.

[lilmorms]

Yeah my older brother has this album and i just have to ask him for it so i can download it onto my iPod. I agree--one of the best albums of the past decade. This song, followed by rich kid blues, is probably my favorite on the cd...but yes, they are all great!

[ssjphenom]

i love many shades of black

[lilmorms]

Oh my goodness yes! Haha the whole album...masterpiece
