July, 2002: two young men, Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney,
college dropouts the both of them, are working together for
an Akron, Ohio property owner, the type of fella who owns a
variety of low-rent apartment buildings around town in
various states of repair and, well, disrepair. You get the
picture. That sort of operation. They're "horticultural
technicians" for this property owner. Not to put too fine a
point on it, the boys mow lawns for the landlord. Between
them, they've got a truck, two lawnmowers and a
weedwhacker. In addition to working together, these two
childhood friends play in a band, a duo called The Black
Keys. In a week's time, they're to embark on their first
tour ever, playing songs off of their debut album, The Big
Come Up, at tiny venues aroun More...
Review about The Black Keys Great Song | Reviewer: Greg
------ About the song The Lengths performed by The Black Keys
Love it, could listen to it several times every day. To Kim, it may be corny, but I had a very similar experience driving in a snow storm in the middle of nowhere. However, my ipod died and my car slid into a ditch.

------ About the song The Lengths performed by The Black Keys
driving home tonight i had the most incredible feeling. one i can't even really put my finger on. i can't even really explain how i felt. it was just peace and beauty of that moment.
there was a thick fog that had taken over the dark city streets. visibility was no more than 5 feet in any direction. the only guide to find your way through the night were the lights they dimly lit my passage home.
as i was driving, softly playing the song the lengths came on. from that second to its finish everything felt perfect. the moment was perfect. the fog. the dim street lights. the quietness of the world. and the music.
the song finished at almost the exact time i got home. i sat in my car and replayed the song again and just stared into the night haze.
when it was over i walked into my house entered my room and suddenly felt a wave of sadness and depression. all these material things i have in my room could not bring me the feeling of what that drive home did just a few minutes ago.
you may think me corny. or a dork. whatever. all i know is that for that drive to my house to mine i felt the most peaceful that i have ever felt in my life.

------ About the song The Lengths performed by The Black Keys
this song is amazing. i cannot get enough of it. the music is raw & beautiful & the lyrics don't disappoint. i could seriously have this on repeat all day & never tire of it. every time i hear the opening strains, i close my eyes & lean my head back & just...i dunno. it makes me melt.
this powerful song mix the old style of blues with amazing strong drums and a guitar what looks as if somebody takes a trip in a time machine for record some riffs of "ye olde school" and bring us an unforgettable experience, i´ve said!!!!!
Man, this is one of the best songs ever written, and recorded. Hauntingly beautiful. If you don't have this song on your Pod... get it now. The Black Keys are one of the few bands out there playing real, original music...and this one is one of the best!

------ About the song The Lengths performed by The Black Keys
Great band and album. The Lengths is the only slow song which makes it all the more potent when listening to the full album. Even on it's own though it packs a wallop. The music is just so sweet and swaying. It has classic beauty and when I did finally read the lyrics I was not disappointed there either. The music is charmed and the delivery excellent!
Awesome | Reviewer: Kathy
------ About the song The Lengths performed by The Black Keys
I love this song
The band sounds so original and the lyrics are really just amazing
Anyone that likes a unique sounding band would love these guys
The use of "low-fi" techniques and the grimy blues feel of this duo are amazing and awesome song writing abilities make this band bar none one of my top 10
