Jack White - "High Ball Stepper" (Lazaretto Album Track)

[@tv8881]

I'd like to thank Jack Whites parents for providing a brilliant mind to this world that we live in. Absolutely mind blowing. Grateful for what musical brilliance he has provided.

[@Silvermoonscorpion]

I wonder what it's like to sit back & watch your kid grow up & become this person. Pride.. I often wonder how his parents feel. I know they support him. But an actual interview on their perspective would be nice.

[@latetodagame1892]

Hmmm.... I guess.

[@nthdegree9058]

Most often it is a complete lack of parental influence that creates genius like this.

[@mshottfreak]

Mmmm,...yesss...he's delicious in so many aspects ...just njoy... that's it. I'd love to meet him and be a pervert in his demented mind, just for a good time! But that's mmmm...Mr. White

[@jonmashburn1656]

He has 6 brothers and 2 sisters so his parents had their hands full. Not to mention he was supporting himself and running his own business by age 21 before The WS ever got popular. He kind of manufactured himself.

[@meep3445]

I love how he is never afraid of instrumentals, they are always fierce.

[@Renee_ok_-_-]

Jack White is notoriously eccentric. Love him or hate him, he is true to himself. Such is the nature of a true artist I believe. I admire the man for doing what he damn well wants. Love him or hate him, take your pick....But at least he isn't clone like a large majority of the mainstream music industry. Yet.

[@BRUNOAZIZ]

this track is fucking cool...no siging...totally anti mainstream....agree with you 100% (that said...i`m not a Jack big fan...but this distortions...this riff, the dinamic...its great!)...hope for more dense experimental stuff on the record

[@godeedeedee]

Yet? If he were going to be a "clone" like most of mainstream music, it would have happened by now. He's been doing his thing for well over a decade now.

[@smokeekaydee8909]

Absolutely, he is an artist. Don't think his integrity will change. Come to Toronto Ontario Jack!

[@DTitz331]

***** Ok that is complete crap. Just because he covers blues artists' songs sometimes doesn't mean he is stealing from them. He makes those songs his own when he plays them instead of doing it the same way as the original artists. He gives them credit and its not like thats all he does. Covers aren't stealing if due credit is given.

[@smokeekaydee8909]

AchillesWrath Exactly right! You may have seen "It Might Get Loud", terrific documentary w. Jack White, The Edge and Jimmy Page; it's a favorite of mine. Jack White is a bluesman who no more "steals" from the blues than any other artist. It's not stealing; it's interpreting, covering with respect, and making a song your own. Do you say the same of Led Zeppelin? Eric Clapton? Jack White attacks his guitar and rips out your heart; that's why I love his music; it runs the gamut of all emotions, and he's a master musician. Been playing since he was a kid. Wish he'd come to Toronto!

[@KRANKENdude]

This song is just straight up badass.

[@DireBowser]

Jack White is like dopamine without the drugs.

[@swisscheeseplease97]

It’s like a war cry, I feel like.

[@dansimsss]

Pure Jack White...this guy is amazing, probably the best electric guitarist of is generation.

[@Theblasterpy]

***** who is that ?

[@dcdeal001]

c'mon!!! he is damn creative, but that does nothing with guitar skills or effect overload

[@zusleliberateur]

dc dcd technicians are crap

[@dansimsss]

dc dcd Well, for this song you're right, but if you look at is live performance, he's a really good guitarist, and if I'm wrong, why was he in the film ''It might get loud'' ? It's not only for its skill, but for is dedication to music..I heard that in some show his knuckles was bleeding, he scratch them on is guitar because he was too intense...or it may be a legend...don't know, but I like him...

[@joeldavis1217]

last time i checked(long time ago) he's rolling stones magazines 17th best guitarrist

[@ricobigo]

That little piano riff really gets me. So simple, yet so divine.

[@offdutyjie]

Agreed - the dynamic is has to the song is very very essential.

[@ollievaughn8227]

As an audio tech....all substances react to vibration...but to master liquids vibration is fucking magic. Hats off Jack and crew! Wow

[@mr.hanfblatt9152]

the sand part at 1:37 looks really cool

[@j_freed]

With a single driver that favours low and mid frequencies, the upper frequencies like just cymbals and HH don’t disturb the paint as much… And all they needed for this video was a couple of fun ideas, and some good photography. Well, good editing.

[@sghutner]

Oobleck is a suspension of cornstarch and water that can behave like a solid or a liquid depending on how much pressure you apply. Try to grab some in your hand, and it will form a solid ball in your palm until you release the pressure. Then, it will flow out between your fingers.

[@sghutner]

It will also respond to vibrations Very cool video though Hes amazing

[@JackAttak]

Wow! I absolutely love that raw, screeching sound coming from Jack's guitar. It's so unique to him, and I can't wait for this album!

[@theuglykings]

its absolutely signature, isn't it?

[@metaxuoblivion]

Once again Jack White reinvents rock and roll. This is why I love music!

[@samreade9153]

He one of the few inventive musicians these days. that doesn't rely on vocoders and loops. Though, there are other awesome musicians out there, you just have to dig a bit these days.

[@evaccative]

***** where do you dig?

[@supervegeta101]

illosopher seriously.

[@somerandom7672]

illosopher Brilliant comment. Even if it wasn't intended as I read it.

[@clarkfluegel6875]

Nothing about this track is original. You seriously need to listen to more music if you think he is reinventing rock and roll... lol.

[@TheZeezee45]

THE LEGEND IS BACK. June can't come quick enough.

[@VanceMcAlister]

Yes, please. If this is the direction the album is taking I will be very happy.

[@WarEmblem27]

This song destroys Fever. So excited for this album.

[@melissarenae4505]

Jack never cease to amaze me of the essence of how much wonder I feel when I listen to one of his songs. Everything Jack White is has always been beautiful to me since day one (15+ years ago) and I'm not trying to raise his ego. His beauty is in his creatividad: the way he thinks, how the stars in the sky shine bright when every note and riff on that guitar ignites the passion he feels in his soul. I'm here to tell you his way of thinking, his creativty, passion and his soul is the most beautiful thing to me. This song is beautiful I can feel passion in every note played on this song. Music does not always have to have words in order to feel someone spirit in that song. I agree it is sacred. All you have to do is sit back,

[@melissarenae4505]

appreciate it and enjoy the moment. Congrats to you!

[@gretekummer6035]

It's my opion too

[@likeaholyroller7793]

Jackie White really gets it and knows how to show it. Being a young lad in my early 50's (was just a lil boy in 1967 through 1971 who happened to hear & witness just some of the stuff rock & U.S. history is made of-wished I'd seen more),and what I hear is a guy who really knows the tricks of the trade. Turn On and beware you don't get burnt!

[@mgultra5613]

I can't believe it was 2014 when this came out. Glad we all got a pandemic Ball and Biscuit on SNL, God bless Jack. We've made it through hell, now we go to High Water.

[@themainman8405]

Absolutely love this song! Jacks Guitar in this gives me goosebumps! I love the sound his guitar makes! I hope every song Is just as good as this on his new album! So happy he's back!!!

[@bobbyhalick]

I'm going to be playing along to this track with my guitar for years to come.

[@diananorman1959]

I am now a huge fan. I can play this anywhere...with some tact. I belong to so many communities that it's a free for all. I love the new lyric vibe with the old school sound, Dude, there is some genius in there. Please don't let it go to your head man. Keep your strange. Strange is awesome.

[@chuckeddy2588]

Greatest song writer in the past 20+ years. KING JACK 👑🏆

[@fuzzeekittee70]

In the past year, I've been so consumed the earthly problems. I forgot to stop & feel the music. Thanks for reminding me, Jack!

[@elizabethbritt9666]

I adore the use of sound in this video! it's beautiful how the objects move to the vibrations. Jack White, you are a genius! i love everything you do... as i watch your videos i realize that we may be vibrating on the same frequency. i made a similar video a few years ago... i love you

[@patrickmasson2389]

Love the fuzzy guitar sound..... Dude never dissapoints cant wait til whole album is released

[@BLPSarasota]

I have to get into more of this dude's music. This was sick. The video totally fit the song.

[@MISTRESSKITTYLOVER]

I've been looking for this video since EVER. I saw it once at MTV and never leaved my head.

[@asenademirci9000]

Siz yokken biz Jack white fanları vardık zaten. MAGNUMDAN FALAN GELMEDİM :)

[@Whovianize]

strong Jimi Hendrix vibe. I do love the video....love the paint dancing to the vibrations

[@justiny.997]

maybe thats why i got that feeling in my body

[@Whovianize]

yeah, Jack White has that kind of effect on us, doesn't he. Brilliant and talented!

[@Twopips1]

That is cornstarch water and food dye. just jyi

[@Whovianize]

Twopips1 really? I had no idea. I thought it was paint. Cornstarch would def do less damage than paint and would be more malleable for the movement...less heavy than paint. thanks for the info ! :)

[@Twopips1]

My pleasure

[@TheMydoorbell]

This is sssoooooooo BADASS! The kind of music that makes you feel like a king when you walk down the street with your headphones on. Makes you want to play air guitar.

[@kitter74]

Thank you for existing.. I love the new stuff

[@michealbithi1290]

The magnum ad reminded me of how good this song is so yes it did bring me here but i wasnt introduced to this song by the ad

[@AkbarJohn1]

that's great. but to be introduced to a song by an ad is totally ok. i don't understand why people hate newcomers.

[@sarahward9490]

I could probably watch this all day.

One of the last living Pure Rock Musicians of the world.

[@dangoldbach6570]

Ooblek is interesting stuff. It's corn starch dissolved in water. It acts like water until you hit it hard enough then it acts like a solid. It's known as a non newtonian fluid because it exhibits weird behavior. Slow movements it acts thin. Fast, it acts hard.

[@UTF]

This is the exact sort of song I thought blunderbuss was lacking.. Terrific.

[@AaronMcDonald]

agreed! Was a pretty flat and boring album with a couple of exceptions. Hopefully this one makes up for it!

In an age where all my favorite bands are becoming poppy and commercial, Jack White and Wolfmother are back!

[@RambleOn1970]

Exactly how I feel!!! Sooo stoked Wolfmothers back and heavier than ever!... oh yea and jack whites just as amazing as hes always been!

[@chriscoburn3511]

Couldn't agree more. The Black Keys make me angry with every new release, but I never get tired of Jack's stuff. Makes me happy that somebody still makes the music I love. P.S. the new Wolfmother is also pretty good. Besides a couple of the tracks being almost the same as the first album...

[@EchoesofRhythm]

Chris Coburn This comment was actually directed at The Black Keys, so good job on that. Yeah some songs do sound almost the same, it seems like they just changed the vocal melody and named it something new. The completely new songs by them are great though.

[@EchoesofRhythm]

I forgot to mention, Gary Clark Jr. is also a great musician in this genre field!

[@oliviers.3592]

Echoes of Rhythm Thank You for Gary Clark Jr ... Awesome !

[@getch66]

Jack White is most definitely a very creative and talented original. I'm highly impressed with Blunderbuss and his isn't the "type" of music I generally listen to. Anyone with an ear for music, including many seasoned greats, realize his skills and the pro's are eager to collaborate. I look forward to his many future projects.

[@SolarSailor1967]

I felt the same way about Blunderbuss, but I was able to accept the complexity and growth of his writing as an ample substitute for the missing ''bite''.

It looks like that liquid is rockin' out on speakers and at certain points it's like little people dancing. The vocal part is really cool because it sounds like it could be some sort of pedal effect. The first thing I thought was, "Damn, he even makes these liquids shake their booties!" I like that it's an all girl band and Jack. Sweet sounds ladies..and Jack:)

[@AshleyMarie03]
