Somebody stop him.
This video is not available in Germany
That was a lucky escape.
Not sure why they insist on dressing him as Malcolm X
I never want to hear from him again. #irritating
Actually
I think it sounds all right.
Stripped from the ramshackle experimental sound of the White Stripes, Jack White is a good pop song writer. He has form in this area as well with Joss Stone's cover of Fell In Love With A Girl (Boy).
Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't go out of my way to listen to this twice. But it's a well-judged savvy cover version.
Other versions are available....
I've heard worse
Boy can sing and the arrangement's ok. I'll hear a lot worse just randomly tuning into the radio.
High praise
indeed! ;-)
I wouldn't buy it
but it wouldn't make me turn the station off.
Dear, oh dear...
... I don't see it troubling the Northern Soul market. That is a truly awful version. Shite.
Heh I quite like it
In a sort of Gnarls Barkley lite way,
But what's with the brass arrangement, it's one step away from being a typical brass band. And the dodgy reggae breakdown, straight out of the late 70s rulebook.
*whispers* I'm not much a fan of the original so this isn't as offensive to me as it might be to others. I also prefer the Joss Stone Fell In Love to the original!
Sad face :(
That is all.
