I didn’t immediately love The White Stripes. But the more I heard, the more brilliant I realized Jack White is. I guess they’re not for everyone… but then, no one is.
They have lots of songs from which to choose… I narrowed it down to three… Fell In Love With a Girl (the whole video is made of LEGO!)… Seven Nation Army… but… they’ve truly made it when they’ve appeared on The Simpsons.
I hope you’ll watch the video… then I hope you’ll watch the clip from The Simpsons.

Weezer — This song… it was the first I Weezer song I ever heard. I still love it… “If you want to destroy my sweater / Hold this thread as I walk away / Watch me unravel I’ll soon be naked / Lying on the floor, I’ve come undone…” Undone – The Sweater Song

I’m a HUGE Jack White fan! All of his incarnations are amazing. Check out The Dead Weather too. Yes, there’s a female involved, but it rocks. He’s a super talented dude. 😃

Hahaha… I can sometimes get past a female… especially with a male. LOL. Everything Jack touches does turn out to be pretty amazing!

Ha! Yeah, my wife knows that if Chrissie Hynde said I could run away with her, I’m likely gone. Yes, I know. She’s not….classically beautiful, but, she’s so awesome and, if Doc sees this, such a badass woman. Saw The Pretenders when I was in high school and was just blown away by her. Go figure. One can’t deny what the heart says.
I’m kidding about actually running away…of course. I’d have to at least listen to Ms Hynde….or Lucinda Williams. 😃😃

Oh, I have a list of guys I would run away with. Not that my husband has any idea such a list exists… 😛

Ha! She knows I’m full of shit. I’m not going anywhere. And, of course, it’s not as if Chrissie or Lucinda even know I exist, sooooo……

Yeah, none of ‘my men’ know I exist… but… awful as it sounds… I can’t guarantee I wouldn’t run off with one of them should the opportunity present itself…

There’s a video with Jack White and The Edge and Jimmy Page. Both look confounded when they’re trying to learn some licks from Page. The old man still has it! BTW, LOVE Weezer!

Fantastic! Jack White is incredibly talented and dare I say – visionary? It’s beyond music, more like performance art! Love this! (Weezer, too, I’d have been equally excited if you’d featured them!)
