Who’s still coming back to this in 2024? Wild!!

i love that fact that he doesn't stick to the way his songs are in the studio versions, every time he performs its different and that's part of his charm

[@hellagood73king38]

Yup !

[@FerSpada]

I like the studio the most

[@TheRacboys]

he jazzes it up

[@canadulce3697]

Yeah

[@brendandownham654]

he just has fun with it live, so free with that fuckin thing

@@albertcravero3181 It’s actually been 18 years since the Elephant album came out. Can’t believe it’s near the 20th anniversary of that one.

That’s what timeless music is 👍🏻♥️

Wait until it becomes 51 years and you will likely be saying the same thing, ha! I know it's not a fair comparison but I saw the Beatles in Seattle when I was 14 and I'm still hooked!

[@wexjap]

16 lad! Boom thank you, your welcome enjoy.

[@jeanesorel6751]

Probably one of the best White Stripes performances

[@smitty7326]

Agreed. The album version of this song is already one of their best songs ever, and I like this more than the album version

[@christyspencer3152]

One of the best performances, EVER!!

[@williamrivera2724]

Death letter at blackpool lights is the best😩

[@cyndygough4107]

I just discovered this video & it blows my mind. I'm still amazed at how much 2 musicians only can Rock so hard. I read somewhere that Jimmy Page asked Jack White to teach him how to play Seven Nation Army. Can you imagine how that made Jack feel....Wow!!!!! ✌️🖤🤘

[@Zib187]

This is the absolute best version of this song.

[@CyndyGough54]

Fucking straight!! It don't get no better than this. Period!!

[@Atalkingtowel]

Blackpool too tho

[@drcider5255]

The White Stripes are just so awesome. Their skill, their iconic color palette, their presentation, their energy, their everything. Such an amazing moment for rock music.

[@PezAllen]

I thank everyday Hendrix, Lennon and the gods of rock'n'roll that I got to see this band live. Changed my life.

[@chelseafrye1228]

So jealous!

[@gregm1010]

A very COOL & respectul comment!

[@Abrahamhamham]

Can't get more raw and organic than this

[@LarsOle89]

It's weird the degree to which Jack and Meg is on the same wavelength. The preformance is different all the time but Meg has no problem reading Jack and what is going to happen. Her drumming is so simple and raw and his guitar play so emotional and big, and it mixes so perfectly. I sooo wish I had gotten to see them live!

[@apseudonym]

yeah they were soulmates

[@lewannajordan2447]

Hard to believe she had stage fright huh?

[@PublicEnemyMinusOne]

@@lewannajordan2447 She was a strong woman ❤

[@lewannajordan2447]

I feel the same she would of been so instrumental to up and coming female drummers today. I love how Beyonce uses all female band members .

[@christianmayr6889]

I did and it was one of the greatest moments of my life. It was seriously the best concert ever, afterwards I felt like I just experienced a rift in the space-time continuum. Seriously, you have to build yourself a time machine, dude!

[@ethanpelagalli]

I wish I could have seen these two perform in my lifetime

[@benjones4389]

I think Jack's probably by far the best guitarist of this generation, there's no one like him

[@georgerickard5509]

+Ben Jones John Fruiscante

[@benjones4389]

true, also Annie Clark is incredible

[@pretentioushipster8295]

Matt Bellamy is pretty good. Before they came out with The Resistance of course.

Alison Perry...Premetto che The White Stripes piacciono anche a me , però tecnicamente ci sono chitarristi molto migliori. Se però dici che è un Grande Compositore ti do ragione in pieno!

He is. He is 70th in the world's 100

[@aazz0099503]

Alison Perry ever tho

[@eduardoGentile720]

@@kegusto5359 ci sono chitarristi come Hendrix che erano bravi per la loro spaventosa tecnica, altri (molti chitarristi metal) per la loro estrema velocità ed aggressività, invece il garage rock, il punk ed in un certo senso anche il blues (i generi dei the White Stripes) si basano non su grandi abilità tecniche bensì su onestà, grandi emozioni espresse nelle canzoni e nel caso dei the White Stripes, su la semplicità ed il minimalismo più assoluto

[@bobray1228]

The last two minutes was some of the greatest free lance dirty blues I’ve seen. Those high note whines tho. Went from bb king to master of puppets in 60 seconds

[@SkyWalk27]

This has to be the best live performance of this song. So good!

[@Regenerator98]

I love the energy jack and Meg give off if you can’t enjoy playing and making it’s going to be boring and everybody else will feel the same. One of my favourite bands

[@Streetwalker216]

The Blues is alive and well in Detroit!!!

[@CPatra-ps2dv]

I love that ending! That's what's so cool about the white stripes, they never had 2 identical performances. Every performance was unique

[@randymcsmash]

love Jack's vocal delivery of this, a lot different to the album version and an absolutely fantastic performance

[@sourboydrummer]

As a blues fanatic/musician since I've been 4 years old (24 now) I call this blues, here's why, it's raw, it's raunchy, and there is so much emotion it's exploding from the stage. That's what the blues is about, clearly you need a lesson on that. And another thing, no one asked you to come here and talk down this band, so let the listeners listen.

[@peachy3143]

2004 me and my wife walked out a restaurant in Bridlington uk 🇬🇧 to walk straight into jack and meg .. I literally couldn’t speak .. we had tickets to see them the next night .. had our photo with them . Had a little chat with jack .. my work here on earth is done . Greatest moment of my life … miss them so much

[@graememcvie9763]

Great looking stage man.. jacks got some mad skills..

[@shondra6]

The first time I heard this song, my son was playing it. I was like , who are these guys 😱🎧🎤🥁 play it again. 💪🏼

[@modeljetjuggernaut4864]

It's amazing.. Jack's playing is rather simple, but it's the soul and finesse behind those chords that are unmistakable.

[@joelynch5044]

I love the passion and rawness of this performance. Rock and roll in it's truest form, bluesy, loud, gritty, primitive and two musicians who are feelin it.

[@niallo23]

The ultimate performance of this song. The way you can hear Jack talk to Meg, the energy in the performance, the slowing down then speeding up. Biblical

[@Deleted_Goodbye]

Congratulations; well done to the audience. You decoded the message. It can be discovered in the electric blues. It was delivered by Jimi Hendrix. With the power of soul anything is possable. The blues runs through the veins of each man, woman and child. The blues stems from the Mississippi delta. It is the rhythmic frequency of the human race. It resonates throughout the human soul. It speaks and teaches love, happiness, peace and respect to fellow humans. Pass on this message to all.

[@leeleeturn]
