The White Stripes Interview on The New Music

[TheHouseOffice]

What our favorite toothpaste is. Lol.

[thesplashingpebbles]

im the second way

[sweetycakegoodness12]

lol at 2:05 jack turns his head and slowly starts to smile then the camera zooms on Meg

[FreightlinerFred]

@RussianDrummer92 Thankyou!

[NegisAnimations]

I adore Meg's voice.

[nonameleft4m3]

@jeweatingdino they are brother and sister

[kylabotting]

@nonameleft4m3 no they are not..they were married and divorced before the band even started.

[jeweatingdino]

they're devorced are they not?

[EchoPoint1]

@macr0machine

Theyre not pretentious at all. Theyre down to earth if anything, they dont want to seem relaxed they just are. And shes not awful, the songs just need what Shes drumming. The whole idea of the white stripes is that its simple

[saybyebye22]

@macr0machine douche bag

[macr0machine]

@saybyebye22 I speak only the truth.

[spot1333]

@macr0machine obvious troll

[BeckEhster]

someone used me so they could have a band like the white stripes. Jack white is his biggest idol. I should've thought twice before getting in a band with him, now the white stripes songs bring back nothing but bad memories. Recked it for me Jb.

[hellohello1234567810]

2:05 - wonder what he's smiling at...

[Cerpth]

What's the name of song at 0:30?

[Luketown1]

@Cerpth "the hardest button to button"

[EverTheSame5]

Meg is sooo cute♥

[R2J3M]

George Polishname

[lolita88ism]

I don't know if it is right to say that but i feel like Jack white never let talk Meg in an uncounscious way, he wanted to be the one talking he wanted to control most of things even took her last name which make her not in a good position now =/

[emoneylegend81]

I can't believe they're done, great band.

[guitardrumskate]

they talk really slow and quietly, im surprised, their music has a hell of a lot of energy in it but it seems like their actually really chill people

[lolita88ism]

@guitardrumskate they are not that chill i don't think so =/

[nathanw65]

what the stroumboulopoulos

[missmordant]

@palutubevideos no its not, its actually meg's last name

[ms7br01]

jack white name is actually Jack Smith and took Meg's name

[siblington]

@ms7br01 Hes was born John Gillis, not Jack Smith

[ms7br01]

@siblington oh really.. huh.. well i didn't know that. thanks bruh.

[MrWeedsmoker345]

George Stroumboulopoulos , are you fucking kidding me ?

[chibixaileen]

i'm new to the band but are they both related?

[AustAndAntarct]

@chibixaileen They say they are brother and sister to hide from all the attention of themselves. They were actually married but are now divorced and have remarried to other people.

[soleilmh]

I miss this MUCH music

[guitarblazer4]

Jack's a great guitar player. But Meg is a shitty drummer. He can drum better than her. Listen to The Dead Weather.

[joelwhoiscool]

@guitarblazer4 Fucking get over it...on numerous occasions they have said over drumming would ruin the music..she does what she needs to do. Fuck off and enjoy the god damn music. 

[Pelleman666]

@joelwhoiscool yeah the simplistic drumming fits them like a glove.:)

[Pelleman666]

@Pelleman666 that fits..:P

[lolita88ism]

@guitarblazer4 you're a shitty drummer, she makes all the white stripes so i don't know WHY you criticize her (?)

[tidalwave1224]

why doesn't meg ever wear shoes? I love her but every interview she has no shoes on

[MeowMixiekitty]

long last name much?

[RomanoGiovanni]

Meg is so damn adorable, and I just love her laugh.

[mynameisKOEN]

i listen to this all day,

i listen to this when i go to work,

i'm trying every damn song on guitar..

you know why?

The white stripes are Awsum! ;D

[VigilanteHG]

@PBroughton1 Then you'd find me attractive!

[987nightmare987]

@MrCrippy81 YES!!!

[Forbrtishesyesonlyy]

I hope Jacks one of those people that wears socks.

[Utubeer54]

Hey, it's my boyfriend interviewing my boyfriend and my girlfriend

[TheObie9]

what the fuck kind of last name is stroumboulopoulos damn that name took up almost the whole screen

[casperccsjr5423]

Daaaaam that girl is stoned that singer is a emo guy fuk he's creepy nice music though

[LillyCandyCane]

God bless them. If you don't believe in God, then science bless them. Either way, they are blessed. What am I talking about?

@shredinhalf what is your aversion to just writing fuck?

[disda1n]

george stroumboulopoulous what the flying fuck 

[VeroNevermind1990]

i love them :0 great music

[1Sergi985]

wow he is really fuckable

[TommyGeo101]

no meg, i dont know=]

[shredinhalf]

hahaha meg is shy as f***k xD

[windrix1]

*cough* bestbandever*cough*

[pietteray]

what's the title of the theme song for The New Music show that plays for like 2 seconds at the end of the clip?

[BlackPyramid67]

The White Stripes are 1 of the best bands to come out in the past 30 years. thier original, & they rock of course! =]

[hendrixrocks4]

i am so glad i got to see him live, jack has such and awe striking stage presence.

[restlessr84]

There's a hilarious parody video on youtube where Eddie Van Halen, in an "interview", claims he was inspired by The White Stripes to paint his Frankenstein guitar red. :D

[malafe1234]

never heard of the faggot

[igvu92]

jack reminds me of johnny depp

[claragarimba]

george stroumboulopoulos .. nice name

[dark3rbol]

@claragarimba Nice name... NOT!

[corakanproductions]

meg is cute

[8caulfield]

have y'all noticed how intense was their look from 3:33 to 3:38?

they must have some amazing talks when they're alone...

[atthespeckofdawn]

1:13-16

wow, that's exactly what Im doing...

by tab though. fingers ache :0

[turner33s]

i love how they go from talking about wether the past exist to

"Wanna Party"

[onlyrock1]

lol, the hershey center.. great band though

[lordofthestrings827]

meg says 'you know' more than billy joe armstrong XD

[Capuano231]

ok, are they brother and sister? or married, or both? wtf im confused.

[zakkwells]

@Capuano231 they were married jack took megs second name they divorced he kept the name and they kept their just freinds now meg was bridesmaid at jacks wedding i was confused at first tho

[SixShotMaryDown]

@Capuano231 They were married but they're not now..They just said they were brother and sister just so people could focus more on the music rather than their relationship as a couple..

[xAfroxSpectaculox]

is it just me or does jack look just a little bit like johnny depp?

[ashi8848]

@xAfroxSpectaculox Someone else thinks that too!

[tacosofanarchy]

1:10-1:15 is true for me.

[kdc19941]

George Stroumboulopoulos?

[welshperson123]

fuck how longs his last name..

[lupavk]

George Stroumboulopoulos? Greek are everywhere... Maybe they are in your house! Be careful....! Hahahaha I love Greece and white stripes!

[dnggitg]

Nice people. I'd like to hang with them for an evening. I'm a Detroit boy too, so maybe we could go to some diner here in Royal Oak, where I am, and have a greasy hamburger. I'd talk to Jack about Robert Johnson and Patsy Cline and Catholic mystics and stuff, and I'd flatter Meg and flirt with her in a gentle way... Nice people, like Kurt Cobain. But Kurt was so introverted I don't think he'd like to have a hamburger with me. He'd rather be alone, making art. Which is cool. I understand.

[bravedavemusic]

thats somthin we can all agree on

[Aliboolally]

stroumboulopoulos hahaha

[arapahowoman17]

@Aliboolally lol u remember how to spell that?

[YellowFaceDesigns]

@Aliboolally Hey Thats My Last Name u Dick

[toddel2112]

cobain was an idiot.

[bravedavemusic]

your a fuckin idiot. check the comment rating latley?

[giseba7]

I think Jack is impressive with his introspection. 1st interview I've seen. Music can share (or borrow styles), but be completely different internally. Rather be minimalists than materialists. A new concept for many.

[freshw200]

he says.. maybe if your in a small town in IOWA... im from sioux city iowa... ha

[hende37]

what is the song playing at the beginning of the video?

[guillotinebaby]

hardest button to button

[bowiecobain]

hes not the kurt cobain of our generation at all, ninety percent of kurs fans didnt get what he was about

[colashanacogh]

true, but i disagree with fuckyourcomment89, i think if anyone is CLOSE to the kurt cobain of our generation its matthew bellamy. nobody has ever wrote songs with the feeling that came out of kurt's songs and nobody ever will.

[Cthulhussama]

Saying that someone is like someone is outrageous.

Matthew bellamy is not thom yorke, who is not jack white who is not chopin who is not robert johnson who is not Joplin...

I hope that one day people will go beyond the usual scheme of " X is better than X " ...

[xCheezyNoodlesx]

I agree %100 :)

[Gamagachee]

same feeling? there's alot of artists that have great songwriting skills but they should all stay original. If you mean good songwriting skills then just look at Jack White or Steven Wilson, Thom Yorke, ect.

[groovygrandmaprod]

i dont think kurt got what he was about

[sophiiPSYCHOTIC]

oh my god this is the first time ive heard meg talk, ya know?

nah shes cute

i just havnt heard her talk til now cos like Jack talks mostly

which i have NO problem with ;)

[imatestguy]

strumopolipopisss whatt?

[blackflag277]

that little idiot has no idea what he was talking about?

[rockers2swallow]

hmm trying to figure out his eye color

[kingofthestrings91]

touche'

[nomankun100]

well disregarding the "media help" that they got they're still awesome..

[slovan]

Not really. Personally I think they are the most overrated band since Nirvana.

[cheerlessdarkndeadly]

Seriously? Even the early albums?

[ooPETERo]

you can go fuck yourself, dumbfuck, NIrvana is the best band ever, and the white stripes are awsome aswell so, screw you

[guillotinebaby]

i disagree. i think that the white stripes are better that nirvana. why are people compairing the two anyway? they are COMPLETELY different bands with two COMPLETELY different singers. for example, jack and actually sing.

[xCheezyNoodlesx]

That's your opinion. They're different bands that dont NEED to be compared. One isn't better than the other.

[randomguy1774]

I'm in love wih meg, soooooooo cute!

[bigboyhotstuff]

lets all count how many times meg so "ya know"

[bandslikelauren]

Jack looks so cute with his hair straight. just saying...

[slovan]

White Stripes made it because media helped them.

[MattHatter]

Then I guess we can thank the media for SOMETHING now can't we?

[Mojoman360]

They made it because they released Elephant.

[slovan]

No, they made it because media blows everything out of proportion.

[alohastewie]

the guy behind the media wants 1 thing and one thing only money because in this world money means life

he dosent give a shit about the truth or that the people "deserve to know" if it makes money hell hell do it

[slovan]

That's exactly it.

[wsfan6333]

I love Meg, but she just about has the most annoying laugh ever

[boothrocksmysocks]

they are so friggin adorable.

(btw @ 3:29 it looks like she touches his foot. or kicks it.lol)

[LucidEyes17]

I love how inarticulate rockstars are. How many times can we say 'Ya know?'. Was Meg White trying to settle a bet or something?

[warmpoop]

Oh, Lucideyes, you're so honest and insightful. You see things the way they really are.

[Cazaq]

OMFG Meg talks!

[Pantalones909]

@Cazaq  is a miracle !!! xD

[kblh19wales]

it's true meg is very shy, she's a great drummer. jack's my fav he rocks in the dead weather.

[AndyAndreev]

@kblh19wales i love them, but she is a terrible drummer

[BlaZinCrosses]

@AndyAndreev If you looked into the band at all you'll find out that's what caught Jacks eyes about meg. He refers to her drumming as "Child like" and not very complex. He says it makes them making their music harder and forces them to be more creative. In fact he tells her not to get better..

[Delicorish]

@kblh19wales shes a shit-house drummer

[Yekex]

In my opinion, George Stroumboulopoulos, whose name is George Stroumboulopoulos is someone called George Stroumboulopoulos with the name George Stroumboulopoulos born George Stroumboulopoulos, who will be George Stroumboulopoulos and was always George Stroumboulopoulos.

[tahliaaxo]

LMAO i love this comment

[tuga1man]

WTF!? xDDDD

[therichwolf]

HEY ARE THEY MARRIED!!?!?!

[rhashr]

Ex husband and wife.

[tuga1man]

really?

[NiklasARSON]

this guy is retarded yeah the hives the white stripes and the strokes were apart of the garage rock revival and they both are just as popular as the other this guy needs to get his facts straight

[wsfan6333]

No their not married! WTF why does everyone ask that? They've been divorced since 2000!

[SuicidalBrandon]

JACK LIKES BOTH WAYS LOL

[spasblad]

0:49 oh my god. meg is sex

[Ooxie1]

thanks!!:D

[NiklasARSON]

this guy is dumb the hives were part of the garage rock revival and they are bigger than the white stripes

[tpfilms]

the hives are not bigger than the white stripes! come on!

[NiklasARSON]

i like TWS but the hives are known all around the world

[Trevguy00]

the hives? they are.......

[cath2204]

Meg is cute..Jack is a master...And The White Stripes are perfect

[pigpig1214]

they laugh indentical ...!!

[v11drummer]

I think Jack's complete different take on music makes him create such great music.

Jack and Meg have the same laugh.

=D

[V2Hovership]

learn to spelling freak

[Ooxie1]

bahahahahah! learn to SPELLING! oh youtube.. you slay me.

[brilleaben]

George Struokomonmojoinikjnkjlkjkjdhf­jdhfjhsdjkfhskdjhfjdhfksj??? :D

[imatestguy]

shorten your name man!

[wassupdam]

I wonder why do they chose to pretend to be siblings? Maybe the don't want to get caught up in the "Couple of month" category?

[SpankyDmonkey2]

they wanted to pretend to be siblings so that people could focus more on their musical art then their relationship.

[TrueCandyCaneChild]

because Meg's sooo shy, people focusing on that would upset her... Besides they divorced because she thought their bond was too fraternal... so the brother sister thing really is like their relationship

[tahliaaxo]

He said once because if they admitted their true relationship, people would focus more on their bond rather than their music so they like to keep the mystery. Plus Meg filed for divorce because she felt their relationship was too sibling-esque.

[BigNoseMusic]

i´m happy that Jack´s happy that i learn to play is songs :)

[JenNessis88]

Ha! So when Jack says that he's hangin out with the band, he's just hangin' out with Meg : )

He's so damn cute!

[Toastbitten]

at concerts, they always say they're siblings, but they were married, but they later got divorced, but they're still good friends and still making albums and stuff.

i love them!!! :D

[rockleegarra]

there not together anymore i dont think because meg cheated on him but i dont no the hole story so i may not be right

[SIRAWESOMECHOCOPANTS]

lucky jack....i want meg to have my babies D:

[artist4realz]

yeah, no wonder they fooled everyone, not just w/ the same last names, but they also look so alike!

[RolodexEnigma]

George Sotrombopombopopalopadopalous!­!!!!!

[boredbutmoving]

Jack White is the greatest musician of our generation hands down. He´s a genius and thank god we get 3 bands full of him!

[konradharla]

thom yorke and radiohead are deff greater musicians than jack white. although, jack white is very talented and unique, he deserves to be up there with radiohead.

[Greenbunny85]

Or maybe he's really from louisiana and really loves BBC.

[wasdead917]

Dude he is from Detroit how in the world do you hear that accent?

[BlueFire70]

jack's got a really slight british/southern accent, it sounds really cool.

[iowafilmdude22]

i live in a small town in Iowa! yea! but, i don't think i'm a big celeb in my town

[GreenJesus423]

right u r sir

[basisti94]

Stroumboulupoulos??? I hope that is not that guys real name :D

[deatheater459]

i wish that was my last name i would be a sexy beast then

[ronmann606]

He's a big celeb here in Canada.  He's like our version of Carson Daly except not a colossal tool.

[beardmore1]

well put sir

[angeldevilleadguitar]

W MEG WHITE!!!!!!!!

[thewhitestripes13]

5:13 to 5:16 so darn cute ^-^
