The White Stripes - Dead Leaves And The Dirty Ground

[climey]

Jack White looks badass at like .14 to .20 sec in

[NumbAsAStatue27]

The White Stripes were the shit. I dont know to many two person bands but these guys had to be the best of them all. I wouldve loved to seen them live. I have a lot of respect for Jack White as a guitar player. Also everyone should check out my channel/ videos!! Thanks to those who do!

[tomroylance]

The rest of my band didn't want to cover The White Stripes. I quit.

[b44styreraug]

At least the cat is faithful... It didn't leave Jack

[Czoooorny]

that's great:D

[reppid22]

Has anyone ever noticed that the Killers nicked the concept for this video on 'Smile like you mean it'?

[missvioletpixie]

best song EVER!!!!!!!!

[Ryanmorwick]

Love this song :)

[starshyne7]

Think Jack White is THE greatest!

[SecretActivator]

Trippin on Mushrooms years ago worst experience ever until I saw this

[negativewierdo]

reminds me of "there's no home for you here"

[GijsSkate]

0:10 the shop is called my shop -.-

[algodepaz]

Jack White is a great guitar player and this song is my favorite.

[C3nsoredGFX]

Best freaking song ♥

[newmexicobluesboy]

My favorite White Stripes song!!!!!

[ptrain2124]

if you can hear a piano fall, you can hear me coming down the hall

[TheNuclearTurkey]

I WANT THIS ALBUM SO FREAKIN BAD!!!!

[FesteringHeadsFilm]

"There's no home for you he-".....I mean, "Dead leaves and the dirty ground"....

Seriously though, I love these guys.

[MrDaCheat]

@FesteringHeadsFilm Good to see I'm not the only one to see the similarities.

[MrV1C7OR]

Definitely, i'll go to my prom dressed like that . . . hair included

[ThePestan]

Lol "My Shop"

[Slashy505]

Love how Vevo hasn't defiled the white stripes songpages with "EXCLUSIVE LADY GAGA JUDAS" bullshit, and I hope it never does!

[snicklefritzz227]

i fucking love this song, come back

[steveymac69]

"Bad Beave and the Dirty Brown" If you cant find the humor in that ,your a real stick in the mud.

[steveymac69]

@steveymac69 I got a pretty good chuckle from that. Im slaying myself over here.

[HossinNBossin]

@steveymac69 As am I

[raj002]

reminds me of my marriage and divorce...all of the very good and vary bad>> ohhrahh!!

[oknowish]

heartbreaking

[radsk8er12]

Dammit!! I hate when the top comment is a reply and I can't find the original comment.

[azzie216]

People need to get the fuck off of Meg's back!! I bet half of you fuckers can't even drum. Her style is simplistic- which according to Jack himself is perfect for the band he says btw- but her simplicity does not make her a bad drummer

[DonTrustZepHaters]

GET BACK TOGETHER DAMMIT

[brooklynSHOgun]

oh back when mtv still played videos. used to love this and clint eastwood by the gorillaz

[AveryNerdproduction]

it was videos from their marriage

[84ND3R5N4TCH]

CAN'T GET ENOUGHA THIS !!

[kanaric]

Awesome ironic attempt at singing pre-hipster example as well.

[CerealKillah98]

thumbs up for north face commercial :D

[KeepRockin55]

Just a coincidence the best fuckin guitar player in the last 20 years comes from Detroit?

[gwildorr]

Every breath that is in your lungs is a tiny little gift for me... just awesome!

[hazuinf]

@gwildorr I was reading your comment just as Jack sang that line. Awesome : )

[NAFIANNA10]

I think I'm getting into this band

[17shh]

If you can hear a piano faaall you can hear me coming down the haaaall....

[antilego1self]

Detroit born like myself! Say yes to Michigan!!

[GuitarGuy5000000000]

This was the first video I saw of the White Stripes. It was on very late at night on Much Music and I remember thinking that I hadn't seen a music video this good since the 80s. Rock was a lot stronger in the early 2000s. Great video and great song/album.

[twofive25]

My favorite song by them!

[MrRoxxstar]

GOOD GUITAR PLAYER, GOOD DRUMMER., ONE HELLUVA BAND...

[nacmacnoonoopeeps]

@MrRoxxstar yeah hes a good guitarist and this is one helluva band but i wouldnt go as far as to say that meg is a good drummer :)

[MrRoxxstar]

@nacmacnoonoopeeps - I didnt mean "Good drummer" like John Bonham or so., she's OK, and perfect for this eclectic kinda sound...

[nacmacnoonoopeeps]

@MrRoxxstar yeah man i knew what you meant, i was just messing around :)

[bluntsnhalo]

@MrRoxxstar YESSS!!!!!!!

[MrV1C7OR]

True History:

I've watched the J. Lopez "On The Floor", It's a very cool song in HD video and J. Lo is hell beautiful. Good Time.

Then, i came to this video and play it. I can't say Jack is hell beautiful because i'm a man, and this isn't the example of a highh quality video . . . but when both ends, only one of them still remaining in my head, and it's a prety loud and distorted one

[MrsAlllllli]

LOVE this song!!! Jack and Meg belong in a Tim Burton that would be so awesome!

[snapshow1989]

Dirty video.

[billabong4202]

whites stripes have the coolest music videos

[Secure81]

Some of the best ever. The Electric Flamingos have this song called Fuck You Blues that sort of reminds me of the white stripes bluesier stuff

[1992Sunflower]

favorite stripes song.

[boogernights]

the opening sounds like March Violets' Deep

[Aszparte]

Kto z MPC? HUE HUE

[EndymionMPC]

@Aszparte h3h3h3

[Thebluesrockmusic]

I'm just getting into the White Stripes, could someone recommend some good albums of theirs?

[kckoether]

@Thebluesrockmusic Don't know the white stripes, but listen to 1. Dead leaves, Blue Orchid, You don't know what love is. The hardest button to button, Hello Operator, Fell in Love with a girl. Then check out his other bands, the Recontours "Steady as she goes" and DeadWeather "Treat me like your mother"

[kckoether]

@kckoether Don't know the white stipes album names*,

[KillsAndCandyCanes]

@Thebluesrockmusic YES. ALL OF THEM. um, to be specific, if you want some straight up rock and roll listen to their self-titled album and 'Elephant'. 'De Stijl' is more blues/ country, 'Get Behind Me Satan' is weird and piano-y and epic, and 'White Blood Cells' and 'Icky Thump' are harder to place, but basically listen to all of them :) lol, sorry I couldn't narrow it down...

[bluejacksongrinder]

@Thebluesrockmusic just buy elephant and go from there as you please.

[FeelKrooKed]

@Thebluesrockmusic De Stijl and White Blood Cells are my favorites. But honestly their whole discography is great

[mocazinha]

if I can just hear your pretty voice/ I don't think I need to see at all...

[6er200]

ID MIGHT GET LOUD

[FlightyViola]

Jack White making the guitar! Amazing scene!!!! Its funny.. alot of fans still havent seen IT MIGHT GET LOUD. So amazing!

[barkboingfloom]

I've always felt the song is about a ghost. Jack is a spirit who is is haunting his old home and his old love. He wants to be near her but he's not really there anymore.

[airthief36]

@barkboingfloom well thats a nice vampire-like teenish idea. OR,, it could be the obvious. His girl hated him, left him. but not before throwing a party that trashed his house. and to top it, she took his one possession that he loved.

It is not difficult. watch teh video and see..

[beatlezrawesome]

love this...

[kamicheeum]

this song is really good--- what cool lyrics.

[Leedarkzero]

La invención de este video fue de un tal Morel ;)

[AJTbayBE]

I wanna throw a party and record it and play it back later on a projector like this shit.

This video is the fu*kin sh*t!!!!!!!!!!!

[nygisgod]

i have a few white stripes songs this made me truly love them

[pspiddy]

This is a crap video. Which is why I added to favorites. Stupid band; all making cool music an videos and things...

[airthief36]

@pspiddy get better at sarcasm please. you suck at it.

[pspiddy]

@airthief36 no, you.

[luizajimenez17]

jack baby face, so cute, and hot! I love him

[fuckamericanidiot]

@rubyhaleybenjamin Soft hand and a velvet tongue I wanna give you what you give to me, and every breath that is in your lungs is a tiny little gift to me

[BrutalizeURf4ce]

I didn't feel so bad till the sun went down

-Son House

Fuck yeah Jack White, such a boss.

[Lockesmith9]

Amazingly heartfelt song with a really cool visualy styled video. No better way to please the senses :)

[Elthehablo]

This song for me is a historic moment. I listened to it... and it was the first time I learned a song by ear...

[claudiofimiani]

me hace acordar a you gotta right 4 ur right to party de los BB (pero un toque más barditos los invitados jaja)

[HippieInACanNYC]

1:20 Why was the cat... in the fridge? Was this the work of Confuse-a-Cat?

[angrydwarfofdoom]

Weird Al's style parody to the White Stripes was inspired by this song :)

[dimebagjames1]

why does this song have so little veiws........crazy people

[RaygunShaun]

@dimebagjames1 Over a million views isn't enough?

[dimebagjames1]

@RaygunShaun ...........not when matisyahu has more views.......lol

[mcblahflooper94]

This is fucking amazing :P

[IllusionaryMind8]

Someone's bee listening to lot of Led Zeppelin.

[jucaranlu]

@IllusionaryMind8 watch the film It might get it Loud

[IllusionaryMind8]

@jucaranlu Did it, it was awesome!

[zoebowie42]

@ 2:02 Jack slaps himself in the back of the head

[KREEPNASTY1]

If you can hear a piano fall, you can hear me coming down the hall...

[oneznzeroz]

Some bands have 5 members and they can't muster the magic that these two can

[emma499179]

well any man with a microphone can tell you what he loves the most..

[MrGeewiz1]

If i were to say White Stripes had one song that makes them The White Stripes this would have to be the song, even after Seven Nation Army

[amandavicious]

This is still my all time favorite song.

[iHacksorzz]

i love playing guitar along to this song, was hard work to learn it but it pays off lol.

[Logan10899]

@iHacksorzz if you learn to play guitar to seven nation army i can play drums to that...

[keeeystone]

Jack White is the honey badger of the music industry

[amber12leigh]

This was put on here on my 14th birthday. :D

[mshumblenarrator]

every breath that is in Jack's lungs is a tiny little gift to me

[dimebagjames1]

makes for good sex.......a good little beat

[geekXatXheart]

[chchchcherrybomb37]

FACKKIN LANDAN! :D

[kamicheeum]

is it just me or is jack white doing his best johnny depp impersonation

[munnytome]

@kamicheeum haha i feel like they copy each other

[TheJxoxhxn]

What effect was used in this song? Anyone know?

[VarashTRA]

@TheJxoxhxn Fuzz. Look at a "Big muff pi" or "Fuzz face" for the two 'main' types of fuzz.

[ZombieLandRule101]

@TheJxoxhxn Autotune!

[Dimonogop]

probably he got tired of playing guitar - so he decided to start playing drums

[disda1n]

@Dimonogop He has always loved the drums. Jack is just doing what he wants to do haha.

[LuanaFortal]

this my favorite but its so sad.

[jpmccsgirl]

so sad :( oh well....he's better off without Meg

[halendavis]

bad ass song

[ivopetkov75]

i know many would disagree, but for me this is the best song by white stripes.it stands out with a diferrent feeling that fills it.

[taveren25]

@ivopetkov75 This is the song that got me started on The White Stripes. This music video actually. Definitely one of my absolute favorites.

[MrBurgundy76]

@ivopetkov75 id go with ball and biscuit. he made his fuckin guitar jizz!!!

[thefury171]

@ivopetkov75 this, we love eachother,and in the cold cold night are my favs of there difrent sounding songs

[Kav0ur1s]

@ivopetkov75 actually that's the song that shows us the real guitar abillity of jack white..it's not difficult to play, but my opinion is that it's extremely difficult to compose it!!by the way yeah, it's an awesome song!!!!

[airthief36]

@ivopetkov75 Maybe you got a lot of these, I dunno, I havent read the comments. However, this has been my fav white stripes song since I 1st heard it! call it good taste, commen occurances, or just magic. I am with ya bro.

[JokeswithJosh]

death is only a challenge to see how long your remembered

[MiniMikeGillette]

CAN SOME1 TELL ME WHY THEY DISBAND??????? THUMBS UP SO EVERY1 CAN SEE IT AND ANSWER ME PLZ

[ivopetkov75]

@MiniMikeGillette

cause there personal life was not going well.they divorced, etc.

[MusicFan101ish]

@MiniMikeGillette because jack white wanted to go his own way...in my opinion i think he just got sick of megs fuckin drumming

[revdishydave]

51 people are dead leaves

[thuperduperr]

Two of the most adorable people in the world.

[panikadz]

lobe him

[jeyko666]

WHITE STRIOES ARENT FUCKIN DEAD >:(

[seamac206]

helps me understand the song better

[iHacksorzz]

haha i tried to play the song and keep up with it and i'd fall behind on the chorus and here and there lol

[flashavoc69]

@iHacksorzz It's a fun one to play, easy too...esp when you get it down and get to sing it while playing...Purrreee satisfaction!

[skate4malife]

jack white gives me a huge inspiration when it comes to songwriting for my band especially for the guitar work. hes truly a genius

[DoubleVisionandco]

This is likely my favorite WS tune. It speaks of how serious relationships are, but Jacks voice is coming across like a kid`s first love, the emotion of it.

Kinda like innocent devestation.

[liviamiawallace]

from which album is this song?

[frananas]

@liviamiawallace White Blood Cells

[os1567]

@liviamiawallace White Blood Cells

[sgdaniel96]

I love this song and the video is so cleverly done

[catsenround]

OH hell yeazzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz best brother and sister team since a long long time. 

[Krurze]

@catsenround they are not related

[MILeSsK8101]

@catsenround dumbass their ex wife and ex husband

[os1567]

@paradox963 i find the raconteurs sound alot more like zeppelin. its the jack white and jimmy page are both really into blues.

[Bonzotriplets1]

@paradox963 yeah but it would sound different because of how much more bonham is creative then meg is.

[paradox963]

@Bonzotriplets1 definitely, just sort of had a zep feel to it not sure why, that was just the first feeling I got from it.

[detaildon]

@paradox963 I thought that while watching "It might get loud", while Jimmy Page watches him play this song.

[Yoroichi19]

@paradox963 y they might steal it :9

[goop2526]

@paradox963 He's jammed with Jimmy Page before :) and he does kinda sound like Robert plant at some points.

[rmaxtpmx]

@paradox963 Jack White and Jimmy Page both draw their main inspirations from delta blues. There are a lot of similarities if you pay attention, though Page is more diverse thanks to his band's ideas and all the songs they stole over the years..

[PrestonDowMusic]

@paradox963 the verse chord progression is very page-ish and that intro riff is similar to the riff in "what is and what never should be"

[Duraan84]

@paradox963 I thought something like that first time I heard it

[Zepeyoig]

@paradox963 Go talk about Zeppelin on a Zeppelin page.

[cbeauchesne18]

@paradox963 thats because its based around blues chord progressions and because jack white is influenced heavily by the sound of true music.

[zhochmuth]

"The White Stripes do not belong to Meg and Jack anymore. The White Stripes belong to you now and you can do with it whatever you want. The beauty of art and music is that it can last forever if people want it to. Thank you for sharing this experience. Your involvement will never be lost on us and we are truly grateful."
