  • "Don't go away" is the cleverest line I've ever heard.

  • 5 people are screwed up.

  • This song is simultaneously sweet and creepy.

  • @magicmike323

    god i know exactly what u mean, I love this song but it gives me shivers while im listening

  • who knows what to do becises walking away

  • "Nobody ever told you it was the wronge way.."

  • so different from everything else they have done...

  • I love it

  • And in your own mind

    You know your're lucky just to know her

    And in the beginning all you wanted was to show her

    But now you're scared

    You think she's running away

    You search in your hand for something clever to say

    Don't go away

  • @detcader Thanks, I listened to the song too...

  • I either need to stop losing love or find a pocket to curl up inside.

  • sooo beautiful :)

  • Im addicted to the white stripes and rehab can blow me.

  • We love the White Stripes!

  • Elephant was a goddamn INCREDIBLE album.

  • garg

    

  • it´s very great..

    is fucking amazing!!!

    bye!.

  • parece los beatles! como me gusta!!

  • The White Stripes doesn't only make great rock songs, they also can make great ballads, that's one of the 529 reasons why they are so good.

  • everytime i listen to this i cry. (':

  • I would enjoy this so much more if i wasn't so pissed off at jack

  • @TERRIBLEPRODUCTIONSS Wouldn't it be so much nicer if everybody else lived their lives according to your rules? Get over yourself and enjoy the brilliant music.

  • cant believe they split up :(

  • jack whites a musical genius.

  • listen to 'fly at night' by chilliwack

    definite sound alike

  • @akniznik wow its almost exact... I never noticed before

  • ummm... Ok Charlie Manson...

  • I love ti how there colors are red white and black <3

  • i love/hate how real these lyrics are i feel like he knows who i am

  • i cant enjoy this song because...she's got me in her pocket

  • and in your own mind you know you're lucky just to know her

    and in the beginning all you wanted was to show her

    and now you're scared you think she's running away

    you're searching your hand for something clever to say

    don't go away...

  • they r the truth/ in music.

  • is this shit a a subliminal message?!

    the chick standin' on the stool at like the 1:30's

  • @destroybabylon420 How would it be?

  • .......melancholy comes mind, i like it

  • i was picking a few songs from itunes, but screw it im gonna buy this whole album....

  • GOSH!

  • The 5 people that disliked this song need to be punched in the face. This is the best song ever made.

  • Can someone explain how the cover is actually an elephant?

  • @theundone1 .. well it has 4 legs and a trunk. It has to be an elephant right?

  • @theundone1 both of the people represent the ears of the elephant, and the truck hangs to the side. It's really just a side or 3/4ths veiw of the head of an elephant.

  • I find it funny that some people can't see how fucking brilliant this is. Pitchfork gave this album a 6.9/10 - the sad thing is that someone got paid to write that review

  • thumbs up for the pretty cool guitar

  • its funny how music has been there through different stages of your life. this brings back memories of when i was with my ex years ago. this album was the soundtrack to our relationship x

  • A letra dessa musica é limd *-*

  • Mucha influencia de The Velvet Underground. Excelente!! :D

  • @Aydee2020 You are right. It isn't rock. Congratulations, you win at life.

  • thank you

  • wow fuck that convo. below

    as forthis song..i dig it and thats froma metal head

    love michigan

  • gorgeous song

  • There's always a way out, people force themselves into shitty relationships out of lack of independent will and not being able to love themselves (the kind of self-love people THINK they achieved through material possession, but they're actually just thinking how cool everyone will think they are with their new thingy they got). Don't change for anyone.

  • i think the song is hinting the idea that "theres no way out" because its the kind of thing people (actually women im thinking) can really be blindly locked into.... ex. ever known a girl who was in a terrible relationship? yet kept going back to him? thats just IMO

  • thats what im saying. im saying when people lack independent will and cant love themselves, they dont have a way out until they find the things i just said. theres always a way out of everything. its all about whether person can find out how to utilize it.

  • I have an early 20th century Smith and Wesson with hollow points you can borrow to find your way out. Please try your best to keep your brain matter off the barrell since it is a rare model.

  • why is this so true?? :-(

  • makes me cry every time i hear it

  • whats this song about?

  • pretty cool how this song discribes exactly the situation i'm in.. too bad it doesn't give advice!

  • exactly the same 4 me just 3 years ago

  • The White Stripes are commonly refered to as the saviors of rock n' roll for a reason. Music just isn't this good anymore for the most part.

  • @MetroidFan621 theres way more good new real rock bands than just these guys,you just gotta find em, check out witchcraft from sweden,brutus from norway, the sheepdogs,the buffalo killers,wolfmother,radio moscow,graveyard, the crooks from chicago, the mediums from chicago,uncle acid and the deadbeats,the black hollies,the draytones,amplified heat etc etc.

  • @AaronBaker12345 Yeasayer, Muse, The Kills, The Strokes (whoops, not on a White Stripes video), Queens of the Stone Age, JJ Grey and Mofro, Mastodon, etc. Yeah, there's a few good rock bands out there. But not as many as there were from the 60s to the 90s; and very few of them are mainstream. Also, I said "this good" as in "Elephant" good. Theirs only a handful of recent rock albums that can even compete with Elephant.

  • @MetroidFan621 I agree but it's more like Rock And Blues ;)

  • @MetroidFan621 Go listen to some Tool, or Pearl Jam.

  • @TehEvilWolf Unnecessary. I don't care for Tool. Maynard's voice just doesn't do it for me I don't know, maybe I have higher standards as someone who took (and is still taking) voice lessons. Also, I own and LOVE all of Pearl Jam's studio albums. They happen to be my favorite band EVER.

  • @TehEvilWolf The thing is, they really aren't new bands at this point. Neither are The White Stripes, to an extent, but they're still newer than Tool or Pearl Jam.

  • poodle: John and Paul again.....

  • good song  :)

  • @whitehorseguitarist

    Wrong this is a great song!

  • You really have put this shit on every video, don't you?

  • Comment removed

  • whitehorseguitarist..... did you make the first guitar in history? no.. did you make all the chords? no.. if you believe what you said then have you hung up your guitar? cause its all someone elses creative effort isnt it..... but dont sell your guitar cause when theny turn the power off in your trailer park at night you can pick it up and be the hypocrite you are ... wanker

  • LOL i dont play other peoples stuff so im a wanker ?

    and i live in whitehorse.... so my name is totally retarded too ... how bout you grab your boyfriends dicks ,get yourself some protein you fucking faggots and learn how to copy someone elses chords and music if you feel down you obviously have no real talent sry :(

  • WhiteHorseGuitarist, Are you seriously that vein? For starters, correct me if im wrong, but you said "Unless your name is Jack White Please Stop playing this song."

    Well, His real name isnt even jack white.

    its John Gillis, so before you try to make a point, get the facts, idiot.

  • John Gillis ??? You serious? I read a bio on them and it said him and meg were married at one time and he took her last name white. Who knows how reliable the source was though.

  • I Swear To God. Google It.

    His Name is John Gillis. He changed his name to Jack White, And it was Completely Ironic that he married Meg Because She Really Was A White By Blood.-+

  • He legally changed his name, and therefoe his name is Jack White :)

  • well John Anthony Gillis to be exact... ( and i just know that from the top of my head)

  • NikkiBaby66, "Are you seriously that vein?" ROTFLMAO!!!  Maybe you meant VAIN??? Hilarious!

  • youre an idiot

  • This song is so sweet

    I love it <3

  • song made me cry. love just left me

  • i heard great live version of tyhis on rte radio 1 any 1 got it??

    brilliant simple song so easy tom play on guitar! :)

  • "and now your scared, you think shes runnin away... your searching your hand, for something clever to say...don't go away....."

  • it's my favorite part in this song because it's true.

    but I should better say: "you scared he's running away" but it's the same meaning, anyway...

  • The last line - "home sweet home" reminds me of when Michael Jackson's last line of "she's out of my life"

  • Someone really needs to put up a video how to play this!!!

  • its real simple just finger picked a D chord to a G to a C to a C/B to an A :-) thats the chorus

  • i love this song! :)

  • These two are something else

  • hey, now you're just being a big meanie

  • ow, such words. please calm down, dont say that about yourself. I know you're a shining star little buddy.

  • dammit asshole, it makes me fell happy. the same way some people feel happy when it rains. its all about individual experiences. not the song though

  • this song makes me feel so happy

  • Makes me melancholy. Music is relative and so is the individual's interpretation. That's why we call it ART----

  • @iammready actually we call it art because its the human soul manifested into physcical form

  • @Dookiebutt47 Gee thanx 4 imparting ur grate wizdum upon me...i shall b 4evr greatful 4 that ROFL
