John Anthony Gillis was born in Detroit, Michigan on July 9, 1975 to Gorman McKenzie Gillis and Terresa (no last name given). He was the tenth child in his family and the seventh male child. He considers it to be a lucky number; the seventh male child is always different. As a child he enjoyed music. At age eleven he took up playing drum. Later he wanted to play guitar and piano along with his drumming so he taught himself how to play them. He had liked Led Zeppelin and Cream and played around with them but it wasn’t until he was he was 18 and he got into the blues (Robert Johnson) He said that he could of liked techno but he thought that white people trying to be black is wrong. He said he might have had more friends if he did. At a later age he worked as a upho More... (Submit New The White Stripes Lyrics) (Submit New The White Stripes Lyrics) Review about The White Stripes SUSAN, I MOST DEFINITELY THINK YOU MIGHT BE RIGHT! | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Seven Nation Army performed by The White Stripes check me out, SUE! this main (Brother Jack White) is one of them midwest seers, BUT i'm not completely sure. here he has given us a vision of a man's man going to war with evil the only way you can. a "let em take it all, i'll get it all back" kinda guy. A MAN'S MAN!!! hopefully he quits smoking, though... maybe? who knows? does anybody really know anything? i know i don't BUT does the church know anything? do the jews or muslims know anything? a most definitely a probably NOT! they all talk about the conflict, but do we really know anything about the MAN or MEN that are going to resolve it? i think Brother Jack White has an idea. and again, i'm not completely sure. it's just an idea of another idea and A GOOD DAY TO YOU!!! Same words different group | Reviewer: Susan ------ About the song Seven Nation Army performed by The White Stripes I just heard the Oak Ridge Boys do this on Direct TV 101; it brought chills down my neck. The meaning I get from the song is there will be a conflict that is known by the powers of the earth and he sees it coming. He intends to retaliate in kind but he will return to his roots to rest after the conflict. Sorry but this is my interpretation from a life of 60 plus years. you got it all wrong. | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Icky Thump performed by The White Stripes the reason people are prejudiced to immigrants is because we cannot fit new people in our country. and although this is correct, that they should be allowed, prejudice is pointed to immigrants who shouldn't be here(ie illegal aliens) because they come over illegally and steal our jobs, create racial tension(just by being here, which sucks for them, but we just can't have more right now), bring diseases, and piss people off in general. Hot song. | Reviewer: Zebra 911 ------ About the song The Denial Twist performed by The White Stripes I love this song! The lyrics put together with the rythym make it such a fun, awkward song. And don't forget about that catchy piano tune. I've heard lots of times and I find myself singing the piano tune without noticing. White Stripes are da bomb ;) Your welcome | Reviewer: Your Welcome ------ About the song My Doorbell performed by The White Stripes this song makes me feel all jazzed up and ready 2 dance. my fried did a dance 2 this song 4 a dance school. it was amazing and 1 of my favorite dances. my other fave dance was 2 a song called beware of the boys. it was an african song with a little hip hop 2 it. AMAZING! Wonderful song | Reviewer: Paul Olson ------ About the song 300 MPH Torrential Outpour Blues performed by The White Stripes The song starts off relatively laid back and mellow. The riff used throughout most of the song is absolutely beautiful, and extra flourishes are added along with it to improve the sound of it. Meg's distinctive simplistic drumming style really does add a lot to the song. During the heavier parts, the cymbals crash constantly, as is a custom in some White Stripes songs. For the rest of the song, she keeps a simple, yet very fitting beat. Jack incorporates many little solo sections, placed intermittently throughout the song. Some of them are screaming, distorted power houses, whereas others are either finger picked or just slowly plucked away subtly. As for the lyrics, I have no idea what they mean. But I smile every time I hear some of the cleverly sculpted lines. They add more to the package than lyrics sometimes do, and you simply have to read them to love them. An overall great package, I highly recommend this song to any White Stripes or blues fan. It's a true gem, and it's a shame so many people miss it. period | Reviewer: reena ------ About the song Icky Thump performed by The White Stripes one of the most genius bands ever. period. regardless of whether or not the tone deaf morons out there "like" the band, they're fantastic. make your own out of the lyrics, get them stuck in your head, and smile. it's all good my friend. Good song | Reviewer: pedro ------ About the song You Don't Know What Love Is (You Just Do As You're Told) performed by The White Stripes Brittany, he lyrics have sense, and Jack is an artist, we shouldn't mind who is he playing, because in some songs, like Jolene, he plays a woman in the song. The song is great, the White Stripes never let me down... You're arguing too | Reviewer: ben ------ About the song Icky Thump performed by The White Stripes Or rather, you are complaining about the comments made on these song lyrics. You want other people to "shut the fuck up", and yet you think it's fine that you're typing down your thoughts as well. The best thing you can do is ignore the comments made on this site if they piss you off that much. I really don't mind them (I might not agree with all of them), I'm just trying to be informative to future viewers who are thinking of posting uncivil and perhaps hurtful comments to those who most likely won't end up returning to this page. awesome! | Reviewer: :D ------ About the song Seven Nation Army performed by The White Stripes This song's greaat. I've known it for the longest time, but never knew what it was called, haha. . . and I heard it on the radio and finally got it on my iPod touch. now it's one of the most frequent songs I listen to! :D Great | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song The Hardest Button To Button performed by The White Stripes I am currently learning this song on my guitar. (Well I just learnt it in 10 minutes). it sounds great especially with the lyrics. The White Stripes are the greatest band I've ever heard of. I have their full collection of discs and i LOVE them. Keep Rockin' Jack:) just to say... | Reviewer: Joe ------ About the song Icky Thump performed by The White Stripes absolutely every person in america, is an immigrant! even the native americans came from india, thousands of yers ago. But they were the first inhabitants of america. Every white person in the USA is a descendant of an invader. So, absolutely anyone who is prejudice about immigrants in the US, is a hypocrite! theres no place like home | Reviewer: bruce fox ------ About the song Seven Nation Army performed by The White Stripes just like the line from the wizard of oz...."there's no place like home!" this is what Mr white is trying to convey to the listener. if I'm wrong ...sorry to be that.The simplicity of this song is what makes it stick up there where you're listening.I've just added it to my new band "SID JANGLS" line up of covers.If you want to check out one of our new originals go to Poetry.com and rate WAR WAR WAR under bruce fox This is one of the most amazing songs i've ever heard. | Reviewer: Jon Jon ------ About the song Ball and Biscuit performed by The White Stripes All of this sound is coming from 2 people. That is fucking crazy, that's too much sound from that animal of a guitar Jack is playing to just be one of them, either that or he has 20 fingers, Jack White is unstoppable, he's definitely a beast. Simple can be Deep | Reviewer: Sergio ------ About the song Walking With A Ghost performed by The White Stripes Yes, it is very much focused on the chorus, but it is not a bad song due to that fact. The chords in themselves are very well sounding in themselves - and remember that many songs without lyrics do well in themselves The words are simple but they DO deliver a message. I would say it has to do with either a ghost from your past, metaphorically speaking, or someone that he loved that is now not with him (ex: ex wife / deceased father) and the memories haunt him. Furthermore, the POSITIONING of the words is very effective - it shows the person's unstable mindset and how it still haunts him. There have been horrible songs that have been much more recognized (Riding Dirty? ahem?) so...don't say its success is based on the manager...most people don't even know the White Stripes even though they're AMAZINGLY better at tone quality, tonality, chords, ETC than all the crap we hear on the radio these days like the single-hit rap songs that make some talentless fool rich. This song has quality in its simplicity, even. kharma | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Icky Thump performed by The White Stripes I have one thing to say, Kharma. How can you sit there and say no one else has a right to be here? The only reason white america exists is because Indians showed European ancestors' the ropes on how to survive on this American continent. Clearly, the writer of the song is pointing out how hypocritical you ignorant ones can be. How can you think that after all the killing or "Manifest Destiny" as one calls it, after ripping one from their home and territory, and after broken promises, how can you think that it will not came back yo you? Maybe not violently like the way of the Europeans, but clearly you cannot stop illegal immigration -it is natural Law your white ancestors did it and so now it's all coming back to you. not a jack the ripoff | Reviewer: Chris Simmonds ------ About the song Astro/Jack the Ripper performed by The White Stripes to the guy below me, the guitar riff of the actuial jack the ripper song is not the peter gunn theme, jack white incorporated the peter gunn theme into the song, if you listen to the original jack the ripper you'll see... lovelovelove | Reviewer: Alex ------ About the song Stop Breaking Down performed by The White Stripes I'm so glad the correct lyrics for the White Stripes version are here. I couldn't find them anywhere else. This song is kickass. I'd like to hear the original, but I doubt I'll like it as much. WHITE STRIPES! White Stripes | Reviewer: shaun ------ About artist/band The White Stripes The white stripes are truly inspiring to me. Their songs speak out to me too. I usually like different types of rock, but the white stripes are my favorite band. (im wearing a jack white shirt right now! :D) Politics killed it for me! | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Icky Thump performed by The White Stripes I agree, the song sounds great. It even used to be in my Favs playlist. But every time I hear it, the political part grates me. I'm a part of "white America", does he mean me, too? 'cause I'm part Cherokee, what does he mean I'm an immigrant, too? I'm one of the people that was FROM here. Also, most people don't have a problem with immigrants, they(we) have a problem with the undocumented one! They're breaking the law! With that said, congress needs to change the laws/policies to make legal entry and citizenship easier. Making somebody who wants to be an american wait 2+ years to become one for being born 1 inch south of an imaginary line is insane... Agh, just heard it again. Damn you, white stripes, damn you!
