The Raconteurs - Blue Veins (Holland)

An amazing performance of The Raconteurs live favorite Blue Veins.

[@WhyIAm7]

this video is so amazing...... i love the drummer. he's playing so loose, i seriously thought one of his arms was about to fall off. amazing

[@yeahrightbear8883]

This reminds me of since I've been loving you by led zeppelin.

[@bridgetharris698]

Joseph Smith there's a lot of Zeppelins influence in jacks music

[@Daniela_Rocanrol]

Same

[@yourmom-me7mi]

Thats exactly what I thought. This is the raconteurs since I been loving you song.

[@TinksiehTink]

I was there! and it was ... the best

[@capetaquebratudo]

This solo always shiver me up

[@ashjamie]

I love how Jack plays mostly improv therefore proving to us that he has mastered the guitar, knowing all the little sounds it can make and how to get them. Huge kudos to Patrick too for being my favorite drummer and being awesome. Ha ha. ♥

[@beatofthestreets]

damn that solo stopped time itself for a moment

[@liljoerox]

yea you're right i could never work out what this song reminded me of but it is so much like Since I've Been Loving You. THeyre both good songs though, i love this version

[@zachfetter5710]

best 7 minutes and 52 seconds of my 16 years 11 months existence on this planet.

[@danielthomson9178]

you're 23 right now right? How does it feel to look back at your life when you were 16? 😃

[@archerknox5632]

I realize Im pretty off topic but does anyone know a good website to watch new tv shows online?

[@harperrory6925]

@Archer Knox Flixportal xD

[@archerknox5632]

@Harper Rory Thank you, I went there and it seems like they got a lot of movies there =) Appreciate it !!

[@harperrory6925]

@Archer Knox You are welcome =)

[@aodin7550]

Not just white. Dont get me wrong i love the man but this band is just friggin awesome. little jack and keeler just know how to set the pace for the entire song and benson is both an excelent singer and guitar player. Sometimes i just feel white gets all the credit but still its good to know the love for raconteurs is shared :p

[@KidMLV]

Gotta agree… jack white may be my favourite modern artist, but benson is a beast that never skips a beat. And if you close your eyes and isolate the rhythm section you realize just how tight this unit is… Lawrence and keeler are no nonsense every gig they play…

[@godoize]

Excellent!!! Very good!!!

[@nerd94]

These guys are fucking great, I saw them performing at Rock en Seine festival last august.

[@robbie932]

I could have seen Jack White doing his best solo?! And only 60 miles from my house!!! OMG what have I missed!!!!

[@coslip]

its just remenber Since I've been loving you - live madison square garden 1973 tha light's, the public, the color, and the blues...

[@MrSpaceplatypus]

This song has always been one of my favorites!

[@IncrediguyPro]

It's like mixed psychedelic rock, blues, rock n' roll, garage rock. No words can describe, oh my god, Jack White is a fucking genius.

[@macphail8]

Reminds me of "Since I've Been Lovin' You"....love this tune!

[@ReligionOfMusic]

I Can Feel My Soul Weep When I Listen To This... Couldn't Be More Perfect

[@Bassjunkie1985]

The live versions of this band are better than the cd because they jam together so fluently. They can communicate through their music, and know when to play more or less. It's a beautiful song, right here.

[@Christine914]

:bowdown: Amazing.

[@thiagotsa]

oh man.. thats awesome

[@jreyes87]

this is a ick ass song! and this performance made me love it even more than i already did. this is real music.

[@jessicaricker7009]

he is just enveloped in that environment, it flows through him and straight out to the audience, that is TRUE musicianship

[@lotijuay]

One musical bastard genius! :D

[@Vavfaf]

es ist einfach ein meisterwerk. ich bekomm jedesmal gänsehaut wenn ich es höre. so.. unfassbar gut. love it.

[@FahrinsChannel]

Vavfaf Es ist halt wirklich so

[@cyberneticorganismskynet]

Not afraid to do what the f*** they want . Soul n everything 🖤

[@Rycardus]

great band, got a great live cd liverpool 25/10/06

[@GpeterKostwinder]

OMG Jack's coming to Holland.. How I wish my parents would let me go to see him!

[@Re1416]

First time I heard this song I actually cried. My soul and heart struggle every time this comes up on my audio players. ---sigh---- gonna listen to it again ohh man and that solo.... killer.

[@nickelby247]

Having seen the Foos, Muse and the White Stripes...I agree. Just need to check the Ractoneurs off

[@bertbretherton]

Thank you for posting this. I don't get to gigs much anymore (I am 66!) - my son and daughter do all of that now. If I did get out more, this is what I would want to see. Doesn't get much better for me - and I have seen some great rock performances in my time!

[@DerekAkrofi]

amazing live performance

[@riseagan]

i don't think the audience is necessarily boring. to me this is on of those songs that's just so perfect, that you can't move. just close your eyes and take it in.

[@RebecaRae631]

I’ve been there. And I can tell you. That’s exactly how I felt.

[@glenndhorallmyxlvntx9294]

Holland? All stoned! 😅

[@zeikoru]

I did, theyre amazing, especially this song! :)

[@mikelindsey4892]

I heard the live version first and then when I got the CD i was pissed it didnt have Jack slaying the guitar!

[@frankreynolds5282]

I just went from six to midnight!

[@aveselits]

This is music history. Period.

[@robnorton811]

@poptart1239 its called an ebow. its a little electromagnet which makes the string vibrate like its being played by a violin bow

[@jordan10la]

I love the album version too! Both great.

[@RockMusicVideos]

Yeah, they are much better in live performances. This is insane!

[@Gyozomroka]

Rock Music Videos I agree. This is my favorite version of this song. They also have a live version of "rich kid blues" that's amazing. It's hard to find, but if you look up "rich kid blues from the basement" you might be able to find it.

[@SkinnyOne]

This song is so awesome live FUCKING great musci here

[@MrRoery]

temon ! ...es un temon !

[@orionh4]

they r the best

[@xKinseh]

SIIIIIINCE I BEEEEEEN LOVIIIIN YOU!

[@threebrainstudio]

Just amazing ! I want to see them in real !

[@leslieperkins2722]

The way he holds and handles it, makes me wish I was Jack White’s guitar.

[@daraalbro]

I was there!

[@blaqkpearl]

I find it hard to define Racs music, but man they do the Blues so well. The rock is incredible too but Jack seems to be so deep into this, its brilliant. They play it so tight,,like everything they do,,,Im in awe of them

[@glenndhorallmyxlvntx9294]

Incredible musicians indeed

[@vamich]

@VivaLaNigel I'ved noticed too, Jack White's solos are rares. But fantastics.

[@jordan10la]

HAHAHAHAHAHA that may just be he best reply ever.

[@barsn11]

the epicness of 4:48 to 4:52 will never stop sending chills down my back

[@adjemes]

@MaybeYoureCrazy They were just so amazed that noone could move...

[@Joetehpsycho]

@mang4lewisk Jack White has a Custom Gretsch "Triple Jet" The only one there is, But there is a Gretsch "Duo Jet" similar to it. And Brendan's is a 1959 Guild Aristocrat.

[@Iplaynfs1]

Is this already a classic or what?

[@viniciusaquinodeoliveira5023]

This was born as a classic

[@piojoramal]

0:00 and 0:00 and 0:00 i can't stop listen this song

[@motodrummer]

He is just as good if not better, top drummer and even better guitar player, c'mon man give credit where it;s due this guy is incredible and really just starting to get going, he has along wayy to go bro.

[@allycrro]

I love this! Made my day! :)

[@MrAdomus]

this song, is truly what real rock used to be. The Raconteurs are one of the very few bands left in the world that still know the true meaning of the word rock. this song is fantastic

[@hilltop530]

@Dominik2804 Not a dead crowd. They just had their minds blown. It'll come back to em in about an hour after the show.

[@transfrmpnguinz]

@THINLIZZYFANno1 Totally agree with you, but I gotta say, there's something about Jack White that just makes him my absolute favorite guitar player ever.

[@nip0nica]

épic

[@LolzNdolz]

The drummer is very talented! I see it's not just Jack that is awesome here :D

[@wolfeman323232]

@dictator54 you dont need to know jack white to know he has soul. he speaks through the guitar and lyrics. and the inflection in his voice. the movements when he thrashes and plucks his guitar. you just know. he wouldn't have written a song like this if he had no soul. the lyrics and display they have done using the music shows how obviously soulful he really is.

[@mikelindsey4892]

People talk about the Banaroo version of Blue Veins because Jack flips out at the end but this version is the best one.....Is this on a DVD somewhere because I cant find any live Raconteurs DVD's and I need t]his NOW!

[@shywhy]

Okay! I am no musician and every friend of mine who plays guitar pointed to me that JW is playing out of tune. But then this song sounds EPIC. What am I missing?

[@mishagorelikow4953]

sometimes it sounds cool to play out of tune because in a way it fits and that makes it sound cooler. Tell that to your friends

[@shywhy]

Man, some people just can't appreciate JW. No point in explaining. :D

[@HoffmansYouTube]

You aren't missing anything. I'm a guitarist. I think your friends are focusing too much on technical ability than feel. Jack is the man!

[@johans.6240]

Mehh, it's mostly because he is playing with a ton of fuzz/overdrive.

[@shywhy]

That's what I told my friends too - Fuzz is making it sound off. Even when I was listening to the latest album of Queens of the Stone Age, few morons kept jumping up & down about how "technically" bad Josh Homme is/was! May God Help Such Narrow Music Lovers - Amen.

[@clipcalhoon]

raconteurs kick ass

[@TheJediRabbit]

Modern Since I've Been Loving You. Good stuff, no comparison to album.

[@coreyfunch2867]

Holy Christ! I've found my god to believe in and it's Jack White

[@johnmalkovich6431]

I remember when I first time heard this song I thought MAN!!!!What I've been listening whole my life? Trash? Fantastic!!!!

[@absonon]

This song always reminds me of Zeppelin's "Since I've Been Loving You". Just love the genuine passion that comes out through these guys' instruments and Jack's voice.

[@lucaspaiva6170]

jack white un genio!!!! ;)

[@Dillbob1]

the beginning was very reminiscent of a "shine on you crazy diamond" type pink floyd song

[@gt8432]

jack white is a fusion of jimmy paige and robert plant in two. He also has that dark aura like Jim James from My Morning Jacket they captivate audiences like no other. Just Wow wow wow fucking amazing.

[@siscoismyhomey]

+Graham Thalacker his voice has always reminded me of plants, i love it

[@scottelliottmusic]

@brentonius12 Mayer is a pop star who memorized a bunch of SRV licks.He doesnt PLAY like a blues player, he just uses the same notes. If you dont understand what I mean by that, then you probably listen to music for different reasons than I do.I know he can play blues stuff, any guitar player can.His blues playing did not get him recognition, Your Body is a Wonderland did. He is famous for love songs so chicks will hang around for his self indulgent extended solos.

[@jnotheman]

This is so inspired by Zeppelin, it's all so beautiful. It proofs that you can actually get intoxicated by listening to music..

[@abarbosa522]

anyone knows what jack sings in the beginning of the video? Thank you very much for the upload.

[@zeikoru]

Howsa bout a live album? thatd be cool

[@TinksiehTink]

Actually, I was there, I wasn't dead, it was the best and purest sensation I've ever had, unable to make any sound, crying.

[@DaAlexboiii]

im not sure of the name, but he uses a device that vibrates the strings like a violin, so they gradually get louder instead of the usual picking sound

[@daviewavie112]

raconteurs drummer is pretty damn sick

[@IncrediguyPro]

Yes, they do their part. But, it's all Jack. I mean, The Raconteurs was his project. Yes, he created the band with Brendan. But, The Raconteurs just wouldn't be The Raconteurs without Jack White. And in my opinion, all of Jack's projects, and everything else that he does is fucking perfect. The man is just fucking perfection.

[@Mister.Unknown]

Haha check out B. Benson face at 5:34 "Hell yeah"

[@CathiBlack-j7h]

I'm nearing 78, a music maniac, Jack White is brilliant.

[@Dai3eb]

@thesundaypursuit Incubus does a very good job as well. What about "them crooked vultures"?

[@stanblack15]

TEN!

[@BeLkTheSqurl]

@Avolution33 I love you man!!

[@mccainsoccer]

Is he singing the Stooges' "Dirt" there at the beginning? hahaha. That's awesome, as is this whole performance.

[@cliffhanger6539]

You know it. Rockin' on like a true Detroiter.

[@Gabotas21]

God also likes this.... because he is playing it...

[@VirtualSting]

When were they in Phoenix? I want to see them. :-(

[@bertmontgomery9396]

Love this song , but it’s very apparent he was listening to Zeppelins “ since I’ve been loving you “ before he recorded it lol .there a few riffs that even sound the same

[@MakilHeru]

Is the rhythm guitarist (Brandon) using an Ebow for the first 20 seconds?

[@davinou26]

@EPidemic489 No this song is more bluesy ... more intense, like robert johnson's song. Sing with all his soul .. it's more than a simple song, we can feel all his feeling !

[@bodhranseb]

The hand gesture he/she is dooing is something whe dutch people use if whe think some one isnt right in the head.

[@Jerichoholic20]

@Timeconsumer9 he sings in your blue veins very slowly

[@crea8trix]

@verolicas69 mmmm yeah coolest b-day greeting ever thx V

[@Idonicsproductions]

Other bands take note that's what we call soul

[@End-Result]

That bass line at the beginning!! i wondered where i got it from, Its the first thig i play whenever i pick a bass guitar up

[@SummersPep]

okie dokie, I've probably seen it... but you know I will do! We need to start instant messaging or something... Hey check out this song at the Hove Festival if you haven't already. I wanna see what you think about Jackie White!?! Have a good day too! :)

[@CraigKramer]

Fuck yeah!!!

[@Guilmon470]

I love how the entire world is Jack White's playground and it's somehow always just worked out. XD

[@bonesmaan]

perhaps it's a G6128T-1962 Duo Jet w/ Bigsby (gretsch)
