YOU KNOW IT'S SO HARD TO LOVE SOMEONE THAT DON'T LOVE YOU


The White Stripes I "Death Letter" I De Stijl
Jack White covering Son House = Brilliance. This White Stripes performance is outstanding. You can just see his passion for the blues coming out of each note. I love how they take it into "Grinnin' in You're Face" at the end, Jack White has said that the a capella Son House song is his favourite song of all time and has had the greatest influence on his music.  Had a chance encounter with him last week before The Dead Weather concert and it was truly an amazing dream come true to meet him in the flesh. He is at the top of my list of musician from this generation too have such a profound impact on me and he is the reason I started learning to play guitar. I will never forget that wonderful day.

PUFFY LIPS GLISTENING SKIN AND EVERYTHING COMES RUSHING IN...

We don't go to hell
memories of us do
I get a sense of connectedness
Exclusive tight but nothing dangerous
We don't go to hell memories of us do
And if you go to hell
I'll still remember you
But I thought you beat the death of
inevitability
to death just a little bit
Terry's gift is forever green
It got me up and back on the scene
we don't go to hell
just our memories do
Fantastic gap common space
Open concept in your smiling face
we don't go to hell memories of us do
And if you go to hell I'll still remember you
