I love gigs where you can get so close and lean on the stage lights. Keep your stadium shows and your armies of security; this is how it should be right here.
The direction and camera work is stellar. So many fantastic shots. Alison smoking on the side of the stage watching the band (3:15), later crushing the cig with her dragging boot (6:18), her head on Jack and looking back to the drums (5:05), and Jack's foot pushing down on the pedal (5:30). And Jack's playing throughout, fucking amazing.
@@InnerDness his E broke cause his strap fell off mid solo and when he threw it back over his shoulder it snapped. His guitar was fighting him that entire performance lol
@@_dmfd According to his interviews, he absolutely loves those difficulties and challenging nuances. In fact, he goes out of his way to create them each show.
I’m a full grown man and this song brings tears to my eyes.. I don’t even know why.. it just rocks me to my core. Something fuckin beautiful about it. Would love to hear more of this style. Nothing more to say than awesome!
If you're looking for something goosebumps wise there are two other songs that do this for me. Nick Cave, this gets me every fucking time>> /watch?v=KCvgkDjUR24 and Brutus - /watch?v=hEdmzn41tTU&list=FLtUkPNMijjVsYjwlAR5UWzQ&index=6 I hope you enjoy them my friend.
We’ve all run a vessel ashore when it should’ve been docked. Seen this guy live multiple times over 20 years, one of the last rock stars. Continues to play with musicians from Detroit where he came up. Never seen him mail it in.
Jack White is clearly one of the greatest talents of our generation. You are truly appreciated, at least by me. Yeah, 9th time I've listened to this song, consecutively. Midas Touch brother. Yeah- tipsy here, but that does not negate the truth.
he is. and despite his acclaim and recognition,i still feel he is underappreciated. he will be in the same league as Hendrix one day. I just hope he doesn't go out prematurely.
Awesome, simply awesome. THIS is pure rock music, no homogenization, just gritty, sweaty energy. If I close my eyes I could be sitting in my bedroom in the 70's listening to one of my albums on my quadraphonic stereo system. I haven't liked a new band this much in ages.
there are moments in music when you just arnt listening to someones voice and instrument, but you can actually hear their soul speaking out. This is one of the moments
I think about it before I jack off into the water when someone ask me for a cup of water at my house, and then I laugh my ass off. Watching some one choke on unexpected jizz is the best!
This band is an experience. The energy all the members have individually, and together create an epic experience in music. Raw, rugged, talented, emotional, and alive.
oh my God! Where have you people been?? I used to watch this daily until I bought it... You all came to your senses..lol! I'm just playing, I couldn't live without ALL of these musicians music! Mad love for Jack White, Q.O.T.S.Age, The Greenhornes & The Kills!!! LOVE YOU ALL ;)
I love music so fucking much I hear it and feel it differently then most people. in the album version of this song if you listen close you can hear crickets chirpping in the back ground. that's pure genius to incorporate the sound of a bug into the music. JACK WHITE, YOU ARE A MUSIC GENIUS.
Another masterpiece from JW. He will go down as a historic piece of guitatr history. I am 44 and have seen some great ones in my time , and he is right up there.
I may not be a fan of the Dead Weather so much, but this is easily among the top single performances by Jack on guitar. He really takes it out stretches his limits. Bravo sir, bravo
The Most amazing Thing with JW is the fact that every single time you ear a riff from this guy and go look for it somewhere its brand new. And every time you ear such beautiful lyrics and go look for them we find out they are just from his head. Our true Dylan, without the anti-hero bull...
This live performance, Queen during Live Aid and Prince performing Purple Rain live at the Syracuse in ’85, Marks a couple of the best live rock performances i’ve ever seen, just a whole different level of musical mastery.
Dean Fertita-QOTSA/The Waxwings on keys, Jack White-The White Stripes/The Raconteurs/Blunderbuss solo album, Alison Mosshart-The Kills/Discount and playing drums for Mr White(this song) is LJ Lawrence-The Greenhornes/The Raconteurs/The Dead Weather. :)
Did anyone else notice that he played most of this song with a broken high E string? You can see it dangling off the guitar. Now THAT is a mark of a true musician.
Blues this good is only visible in black and white, color isn't visible in this key and wavelength. Going from Mach, to warp and light speed, hyperspace, then to plaid, you cross back over to black and white and the monochromatic spectrum. The math and theory is difficult to explain, but involves proper tuning.
I try to remember how many times I've been to the Roxy. I cannot. Then it weirds me out, thinking my mom and dad hung out here in the 60s-or-early-70s. They might have seen the stage show of the Rocky Horror show there at the Roxy. I gave them the movie to watch several years ago, and left them. They laughed pretty hard watching it as if in a private joke. They hung out at the Whiskey and all the clubs back then on the sunset strip. My uncle was tight with some of the club owners and got my parents pass the lines and the then velvet ropes. My family, mom dad, uncles used to see the Doors when the Doors were the house band at the Whiskey. I think i tried to get tix for this Dead Weather gig. It was sold out long before i tried, if i remember correctly. I think this was a show even before the first album release, or just after. I did see them three times, in two days here in LA. once for free at their pop-up store show. Thank you
What are you doing, writing a grad school thesis? This is you tube, and hal those listening or reading can hold on for a line or two of a comment. Self important much?
Jack White... The Man who still plays a jaw- dropping amazing guitar solo after permanently injuring his finger in a car accident, breaking a string, and playing drums for a whole show.
Wow , been a while I didn't listen to something this good! I love when he starts playing solos and I'm like ''Awwwwwww Yeahhhhhhh'' these guys know about good music
The Dead Weather is the most unexpected phenomenon over the last 1-2 years... Jack and Alison's fusion resulted in unbearable chemistry, dark smoky punk blues.. in being 1 of 2 bands to satisfy my special need for sensuality, elusiveness, intensity, sex, passion, tension, emotions, severity, wildness... etc..in music.
Mind-blowing when I saw them live last year and they played this. It didn't hit until halfway through that Jack was singing the high part and Alison the low. Not in this version, but when it happened it was mind-fuckery. Loved it.
Lol....I like it. I honestly don't own any of their music, so I don't mean to offend their true fans. You demonstrate your maturity, because most people rip me a new a-hole for the slightest difference in interpretation.
+bev This song was the last in the set. Trust me, that's very exhausting to play a concert. Jack was also a drummer through all the song exept this one. Thats why they sink in sweat :P
Stage lights are ridiculously hot...if the people responsible for them don’t know what they are doing and hang them too close or use too many, they can literally blister your skin by the end of a 2hr set.
