See The Black Keys go from a solid band with a bunch of good songs to a great band that has reached the pinnacle of the music world was an amazing story to follow.
I was so happy when I found out this song was released as a single. Definitely a highlight on a very, very strong album. This, and Run Right Back, but that one doesn't have nearly the same feeling of epicness. I mean that in the original sense of the word, not the Internet sense of the word. Dan has become a huge influence on my own playing, and my band has ended up sounding sort of similar, but we're trying not to ape their sound too much.
I love The Black Keys and White Stripes. In my my opinion, the only thing these two bands share is that they are breaking away from all the BS that passes for music nowadays. TBK and WS, I think, worked hard to write and create the sound that we enjoy today. No gimmicks like a hundred dancers trying to distract you from the canned music and lip sync.
Update 2023: Your comment is now 11 years old, but it's still true today. Mainstream is still shit and The Black Keys are just about one of the only groups putting out music still that is even worth listening to. This is the case, despite the guys now being in their 40s. I sure do miss 2012 tho lol
I knew I wasn't the only one who connected the two bands in my mind! Last time I brought it up, some asshole told me to never do it again. He's on the list.
Why is that? Because he's hitting a floor tom? I hear no Meg White in his drumming, all I hear is John Bonham. Pat Carney may have a simple drumming style but its ages ahead of anything Meg White would come up with. But you are correct on the lyric part.
The first time I heard it I thought it sounded similar, but I can't place my finger on it why. The chord structures aren't even very similar. My love for both songs is similar, though.
IMO one of things DA has that JW possibly lacks (only a little mind you) is the voice, the comparisons get a wee bit tedious but it is unavoidable (I have done just that after all)
i don't agree, it sounds extremely original and not like a band trying to sound like led,they way the song progresses and changes tempo is what similar nothing else,the chords are worlds apart...
i hear the zep, im sick of the jack white comparisons, listen to junior kimborough sp? and youll see and hear who inspired dan, jack white didnt pioneer the 2 piece band he wasnt the 1st and wont be the last. im not a fan of the white stripes i mean some songs are catchy they just seemed like a gimmick, the chick drummer was cute, i dont know jack just seems like he tries to be so mysterious with all his bullshit, hes talented but i didnt buy it, i hear soul in the black keys

If The Black Keys and The White Stripes ever collaborated, they should of just been labeled as "The Piano"
Extremely underrated comment.
@@ΓεώργιοςΚουτσαύτης True!
Whoa ❤️
"...a broken heart is blind."
I wish I'd know those fucking lyrics back in high school.
"Our Stairway to Heaven"

Love this song!
Absolute legend of a drummer, vocals & guitar, fantastic! Bassline perfect
my favorite song

I wonder if those fans knew they would have there faces melted off by the pure awesomeness of rock prior to the show?
you hit the nail on the head... music genius at its finest... no words how great this song feels
u know me, I had plans but they just disappeared to the back of my mind...
It's like he knows us!!
How can the public be seeing this wonder and not move?!?!
im so glad i came across these guy's a real badass group
This has become my new favorite song of theirs
No. The auras of pure awesomeness emanating from Dan and Pat have just microwaved their brains.
I love this song.
...wish someday I could see those guys live. brilliant. and love the new cd.
I LOVE THESE GUYS! just musical greatness
Just awesome!
What a performance!
What I would give to direct a 12 minute remake of this song with a full Orchestra filling Dan's sails.
Fuckin' love the drums

I´ll see them next november with The Maccabees, yeeeeaaahhhhhhhh!LIVE IN LISBON
I knew I wasn't the only one who connected the two bands in my mind! Last time I brought it up, some asshole told me to never do it again.
He's on the list.
Fantastic song! And the bassist gets VERY emotional at 2:08 lol
Saw them at rock en seine... god they're great
So right around the Black Keys then.
Good tune
Is that Daniel Tosh playing the second guitar!? Haha!!
It is ..what it is.... Enjoy it or go make your own music. amen
Hell yeah!!!!
I think this is my fav on their new album.
great
Come to Greece!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
was the full version of this concert removed?
Dani california is pretty much the same thing as Mary Jane's Last Dance by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. Basically the exact same chord progression
underground rock and roll.. slow down now - the matchstyx
For me has a taste of Zepplin to it ,beautiful 2 the ears and soul .x
I doubt it. I hear Zeppelin, Tom Petty, The Atlanta Rhythm Section, and The Who, but no Nirvana
Drummer is classss
Black Key's Stairway
@ruipedrocosta333 Ahhhhh soo fucking jealous! I saw them @ cochella , they're even more amazing live, which is rare
I appreciate the pollution... it makes your appreciate the pure rock that much more... but amen my friend!
first part much slower that the original, second part much faster than the original...i looove these guys...
they are fucking genuine, forget all similarities
4:11-4:20 -3 Amazing song
I just like the guy in 2:07 right now... singing "with Dan" hahaha
Where is the White Stripes in this song? I would love to know
why is he wearing a coat? he is sweating buckets. must be pretty uncomfortable xD
FUZZZZZZZZZ booomm rocking this shit hard!!!!!
This song reminds me of David Bowie's famous song.
The guy in the background at 2:10 is getting really into it
mine too
Yep, it must be your age, this is pure talent
exactly!! it has power like stairway to heaven but it's not a copy of it like some say,these ppl just don't have a fine tuned ear(:
When someones asks you what rock 'n' roll is just redirect him/her to this link.
I need a tissue.
Why is that? Because he's hitting a floor tom? I hear no Meg White in his drumming, all I hear is John Bonham. Pat Carney may have a simple drumming style but its ages ahead of anything Meg White would come up with. But you are correct on the lyric part.

Did they put zombies as the audience?
I prefer the tour style... he plays the first half acoustic, then goes electric at the break with a quick guitar switch.
IMO one of things DA has that JW possibly lacks (only a little mind you) is the voice, the comparisons get a wee bit tedious but it is unavoidable (I have done just that after all)
well i thing you re right!!
it is your age!
Sounds like "John Barleycorn Must Die" by Traffic. Which is not a bad thing. Check it out.
JAMC
the melody sounds kinda like aqualung by Jethro Tull. Aside from that, beautiful song
the black keys actually started as a white stripes tribute act ...
has anyone else realised that the main chordal riff to this is pretty much the same as dani california by red hot chilli peppers but open chords? haha
i hoped dan used protection, because he made sweet sweet love to that guitar...
Pat looked pissssssssed at the beginning.
i don't agree, it sounds extremely original and not like a band trying to sound like led,they way the song progresses and changes tempo is what similar nothing else,the chords are worlds apart...
LOVE DINOSAURS
warra concert
well, Jack White is pretty "zeppy" to me, so i'd say its between Led and Zeppelin.
Sure sounds like Tom Petty
i hear the zep, im sick of the jack white comparisons, listen to junior kimborough sp? and youll see and hear who inspired dan, jack white didnt pioneer the 2 piece band he wasnt the 1st and wont be the last. im not a fan of the white stripes i mean some songs are catchy they just seemed like a gimmick, the chick drummer was cute, i dont know jack just seems like he tries to be so mysterious with all his bullshit, hes talented but i didnt buy it, i hear soul in the black keys
best mistake of your life.
tribute to Nirvana?? That riff.. I hope it is :3
only with a better drummer lol..... im sorry in advance.
sounds boring.. The Black Keys used to find some really great riffs, this is so common
ik ppl will disagree with me on this, but, they're songs are amazing but when they're playing live, they kinda suck
Tucker RvB they need a new guitar player,
Heroin is a helluva drug
their tempo bad
One of the only good songs on the new album.
Tom Petty rip off, last dance with mary jane.
maybe it's just my age but this sounds like a pub band trying to do led zep. mediocre by comparison in every way imaginable.
