@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.
@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
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
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.
@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.
@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.
beautiful fuckin song and unless your name is jack white please stop playing or trying to play this song . ( being able to play someone elses song WILL get you laid but if you didnt make any creative effort for the piece of music you WILL get herpes. ) if your thinking about mastering this song to impress god knows who by being a copycatting no talent goomba. then just sell your guitar and buy guitar hero you'll feel alot cooler that way.
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.
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.-+
@iammready spice girls/ backstreet boys/girls aloud etc are all manufactured talentless groups that were brought together by major labels to make money. this is not ART
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
man this is a song that makes babies, trust me. I am picking up the chords, Jack took the work out of it, we just have to appriciate this song, its the type of thing that will appriciate you back. Not like Akon, tossing people off the stage, thats why he is not no. 1, the tossing of peeps is too much for me. Jack, please dont toss me offa stage, you rock, I will fall like a rock. Man Akon, stop tossing people! Please, I dont wanna git tossed, something clever to say "don't toss me offa stage!"
"Don't go away" is the cleverest line I've ever heard.
