I went back, listened to both versions on iTunes - Jack Johnson's & The White Stripes. The iTunes version of The White Stripes' rendition was much richer and far less nasal than what I had previously listened to on YouTube. However, so was Jack Johnson's version on iTubes - quite rich and with a delicious voice that is to my taste! That is why there are so many varied recording artists. We all have our preferences in music. I prefer Jack Johnson's voice. You obviously prefer the other...
@marilynwaswiley Jack Johnson isn't really singing. his voice has no vibrato at all in this. he just talks the lyrics with some semblance rhythm. by quaint i meant the simple kick drum and guitar. it sounds simple and accessible like it was recorded on their porch with just the two of them. and Jack White is singing in the falsetto, Jack Johnson is speaking on the lower end of movie preview voice over.
I met Jack Johnson before at a Merine Debate in Hawaii and he sang wonderful. He didn't sing this song, though. He sang two toher nice songs. He's a really nice singer!
this is good but the white stripes were way better. First it was the "napoleon dynamite song" now everyone thinks Jack Johnson made, at least napoleon dynamite is a good movie that uses the real song
I like my guitar teachers cover the best. :)

Sounds easier to play on guitar than the original. Plus, a duet with the keyboard starting half-way through.

I am practicing this song to play at my parents' anniversary.
It's pretty simple and you can have a lot of fun with it, I am going to add a tempo change in it for the last verse.
And when he says, "Susielee" I will say, "Riley Mckie." (My partner's name). =)
