And I cannot compete with you, Jolene.

If I listen to the White Stripes' "Jolene" ONE MORE FREAKING TIME, someone please shoot me.

Robin? I blame you for this. ;P

This song fucking kills me. I mean it. Absolutely SLAYS me.
I've only ever heard one White Stripes song before.

Away, to the download!

You've made an addict of me, woman.

amazing

Is the only way to describe that cover.

There's a live version from Maida Vale studios floating about that is even more amazing than the studio track of it.

As a band, I find them vastly inconsistent, but when they're good, they're quite good. You'd probably like the song "Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground" a lot. :)

"Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground" is my favorite White Stripes song, I think...I love the video too...yay! I didn't have that much to say except for wanting to second your recommendation for the song. GREAT song.
