who doesn't love the way that Alison conveys angst , not afraid of screaming/manifesting anger, she's a wonderful singer & songwriter, and The Kills and The Dead Weather are undoubtedly one of the best bands of the aughts. I wonder if she directs the song towards Jamie, showing real angst and anger for being close and not being able to have him, just guessin'
Great version of Screamin Jay's classic. Thanks for posting, TheNewDanaLovett.
But folks, don't go away without checking Creedence Clearwater Revival's version. John Fogerty's voice and guitar on this song will shock you (in a deliciously good way) if you haven't heard it yet.
The Only cover of this to come close to the original. I've added this cover version to my FB group dedicated to covers. It's called "the Guilty Pleasure of the Cpver Version" Feel free to join in.
@dweebcentric try to listen to casey abrams' version... It a little closer to Jay hawkings than the rest... at leat the tone is similar and the intension :) I really like it a lot!!! Also Joss Stone does an amazing job covering this song. It's not what you'd usually expect from her, in a good way! I'm addicted to this song like crazy!
@vinesy68 they both lived poorly for years just creating music. FUCK off. They are true artists who don't give a fuck about making money but they do because the talent is there. They are one of the most important bands of the 2000's. The only one to really survive the real rock revolution of the 00's. They have influences from postpunk to blues etc. They are amazing. Music is subjective but you're wrong lmao.
@Vinesy68 a rich little girl who has no soul in her soul? Do you even know who The Kills are? They've got more soul than half the crap that people put out and call music.
