    ------ About the song Seven Nation Army performed by The White Stripes

The powerful beat & lyrics combine to reveal an equally powerful message and "everyone knows about it." We've all heard about the New World Order but yet many choose to keep the concept in the recesses of their minds because the reality of it is that disturbing. "If I catch you coming back my way I'm gonna serve it to you. And that ain't what you wanna hear" illustrating that same notion of keeping it hidden in our minds. It's not what we want to hear. But once you realize its power has overcome you, you are a part of serving it too. "I will think no more" captures the sense of the powerful Order controlling the actions & work of the servant population. While so many other interpretations of the lyrics lend opportunity, I think artists produce their works from very motivating & concerning topics, much like the New World Order. The lyrics refer to global particulars such as 7 nations & lord; communication to a higher cause.

I'm Gonna Work the Straw | Reviewer: Goober Fan
    ------ About the song Seven Nation Army performed by The White Stripes

In the early 90's Jack White was the drummer for Detroit cow-punk band Goober and The Peas. A trademark of the band's live shows was to throw a lot of straw into the air and crowd. This phrase is a shout-out to his old band.

The Meaning is Clear | Reviewer: Who Dat Nation Girl
    ------ About the song Seven Nation Army performed by The White Stripes

Read the lyrics carefully. It is clearly about someone strung out on drugs, tired of it and wanting to go home to be free of it all. The last verse mentions the stain of blood.....the drugs were used via a needle. The Seven Nation Army is not critical to the meaning of the song, but rather is implying that being so amped up on drugs, no one could handle him. A few lines refer to the paranoia that comes with massive drug use. Makes sense now, doesn't it?? If you have never used a lot of drugs, talk to someone who has and ask them what they think. They will agree with me.

HOW MUCH AWESOME IS TOO MUCH?!?! | Reviewer: Mikester
    ------ About the song Little Ghost performed by The White Stripes

I love this song because I have a psychosis that is totally just like this. I am so weird and lonely that no human can love me. So finally I fell in love with myself and projected it on other people and predictably it started abusing me just like people do. Now I realize it was probably all in my head but I still sorta believe I must have lived in a haunted house or something. And very sad and tragic that I'm having to go through this and even less likely to be loved!! But music has saved my life more than once and it puts a smile on my face to know that this song was written by my ghost, just for me, through Jack White. J/K but seriously!! kbye...

    ------ About the song Seven Nation Army performed by The White Stripes

All interpretations are valid, as well as none of them.
The song literally is full of meaning and images.
The voice screeches.
The beat,the guitar...it´s a cry of frustration, guts, search and determination.
Still great.

    ------ About the song We're Going To Be Friends performed by The White Stripes

I'm sorry that some people don't like this song! For me, it makes me happy. It's a great song that just sticks in your head throughout the day. If you have a stalker, you should tell someone who's not random people on a lyrics site...

Correction? | Reviewer: Allan
    ------ About the song The Denial Twist performed by The White Stripes

In the last verse I'm pretty sure it's:

"But is the cause hitting on the cardinal laws about the proper place to hang her coat?"

rather than "But it's the cause...." as above.

Still one of the finest lyrics around....

Another Opinion | Reviewer: Anonymous
    ------ About the song Seven Nation Army performed by The White Stripes

Actually, regardless of where the song's origin was, the writer could've put meaning into it. I like the Wizard of Oz view on it. Just because someone says "this song came from a mispronunciation" doesn't mean they didn't write it with a deeper meaning. =P

    ------ About the song We're Going To Be Friends performed by The White Stripes

Hey, if your experience was like that, you really should talk to someone more than just posting on a lyrics website.

I'm worried that you've fixated on the frickin' White Stripes when they sure as heck had nothing to do with whatever happened. The song is pretty wonderful, which is why lots of people love it, great people and jerks alike.

Tho' on the plus side, I appreciate your creativity.
