white stripes jolene live

[@rudditz]

Greatest cover of Jolene of all time! The Conan performance was the best rendition by The White Stripes. This was the song that made me understand guitar and put the pieces together singing!! Love this song! Love this band!

[@Silververnalbells]

Best version of this song from anyone anywhere was this performance. Period.

[@Tward2929]

Miley Cyrus.....wayyyyyy better

[@sahn44]

It's true. I watched this probably 100 times when I first got the video in 2003, shared with many other people over the years. It's always been probably my single favorite live performance of any song pretty much since i first got mesmerized by it almost 20 years ago. White stripes / Jolene / Conan. The downside is that every other white stripes version of it disappoints in comparison. There just needs to be a better quality version that doesn't get taken down by nbc.

[@skullcat126]

Goosebumps every time

[@alysmarcus7747]

yup

[@NatPix]

Saw this back when it originally aired on the the old Conan O'Brien show. Taped it (ye olden days of VCR) and watched it OBSESSIVELY. The intensity of the emotion and the haunting guitar riff and the drum build...SO GOOD.

[@TheCrowHawk]

NatPix this song and performance are what cemented jack white as "the shit" for me. His music gets better as it ages as all good music does.

[@claytonbrown7120]

Me too, have the whole week on VHS, need to post it all

[@elenavalenzuela736]

Same. Conan had them on for a whole week

[@michaelfaith]

Yep! This week they did on Conan is what got me into White Stripes. This song was a big part of that. Love their rendition.

[@HarkWhoGoesThere]

Exactly.

[@rogue3838]

Never thought I'd see this clip ever again. Thanks for uploading it.

[@chacon101]

Best version ever. Outstanding.

[@tehMick]

@1in6win This was when he had the white stripes on for a whole week. I want to say this was like 2003 or 2004. The song they performed on the last episode was we are gonna be friends.

[@dubnessIII]

Hauntingly exceptional

[@omg_look_behind_you]

ty for posting this! best recording of this song.

[@gathursteem]

Yeah there is no need to try cover this song. This is just the best that anyone could ever get. The absolute definition of "perfection"

[@ajax726]

best version of their best song

[@jalmari15ify]

THANK YOU for uploading this. One cannot Decide which version they play is the best. They all are, because Jack And Meg.

[@paulpeters6091]

What a moving performance, what raw talent!! Truly captures the emotions of the song, although it was sung by a dude. Powerful, and simply beautiful. Now that's music....gives me goosebumps everytime I hear it. I first heard it on the Opie and Jim Norton Show on Sirius XM and found it here. Aaaaamazing!!!!

[@dubnessIII]

Good god I miss them

[@Seej1982]

I taped the whole week back in the day. Last song was Let's Build A Home/Going Back To Memphis/John The Revelator. Audio is on a couple vids here, but it doesnt do it justice at all without the visuals.

[@ShellyHadSecrets]

I seriously wish someone would upload all of their performance from that week on Conan. They were all outstanding.

[@patdraven]

just like everything he touches.amazing...

[@elenavalenzuela736]

[@efree19]

Right now this video has 21,677 views, and not a single dislike. That fact alone says more then any comment could.

[@terry7441]

Not anymore. I'm pretty sure someone always dislikes a video because of comments like this.

[@juggadaaku4219]

Well now you can’t see the dislikes..

[@suzyd2230]

rihanna

[@dubruit4]

@deebodeez30 so true

[@williamredfern2683]

DOLLY PARTON,,,,,, IS THE ONLY ONE FOR THIS SONG,,,,,THIS VERSION IS A JOKE,,,,

[@madcapglass1454]

william redfern Never cared for this song until The White Stripes played it on Conan.

[@mikekim8630]

Your a joke buddy you know how much emotion their putting in this performance

[@tropicthunder2395]

Boomer comment but Agreed. He should of rehearsed it alot more

[@greekb.9321]

Dolly likes it

[@tropicthunder2395]

He was such a terrible singer then. Too high. Once he chilled out on the drugs an worked on his voice he got better... and fixed his tuners

[@lazer_g6549]

What drugs

[@lhmmhl1]

You have to be a troll. Literally everything you say is opposite of the truth.
