The White Stripes

[Dr. Rosenpenis]

I heard this White Stripes song today. I thought it was excellent! I don't know about any of their other music, but this was very good.

Seven Nation Army

I'm gonna fight 'em off
A seven nation army couldn't hold me back
They're gonna rip it off
Taking their time right behind my back
And I'm talkin' to myself at night
Because I can't forget
Back and forth through my mind
Behind a cigarette

And the message comin' from my eyes says leave it alone...

Don't wanna hear about it
Every single one's got a story to tell
Everyone knows about it
From the Queen of England to the hounds of hell
And if I catch it comin' back my way
I'm gonna serve it to you
And that ain't what you want to hear
But that's what I'll do

And the feeling coming from my bones says find a home...

I'm going to Wichita
Far from this opera forevermore
I'm gonna work the straw
Make the sweat drip out of every pore
And I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding
Right before the lord
All the words are gonna bleed from me
And I will think no more

And the stains comin' from my blood tell me "Go back home"...

I'm no Stripes expert, but some other songs to listen to are The Air Between My Fingers, Hotel Yorba, We're Going To Be Friends, Ball and Biscuit, Hypnotize, In The Cold Cold Night, and There's No Home For You Here.

Never heard a song of theirs I didn't like, actually.

White stripe,are the best

I heard that White Stripes guitarist Jack was put on Rolling Stone's greatest guitarist list above the likes of Pete Townsend of The Who, and Eddie Van Halen and six or seven really legendary rock guitarists. Doesn't it seem premature to put a newbie on the music scene like that so high on a "Best of all time list"?

By the way, I dig the White Stripes... I get "Seven Nation Army" stuck in my head all the time.
