Get Behind Me Satan

[eestlinc]

one of the best live shows I've ever seen.

[Zeldy]

eestlinc, What was the name of that song were it was just Meg singing on the drums?
I can remember one line..
"Listen to your mothers" =S

[crashNUMBERS]

Well I love the song "Blue orchid"...


"You took a white orchid.
You took a white orchid didn't you??
You took a white orchid.
You took a white orchid turned it blue..."

[eestlinc]

Zelda, that song's called "Passive Manipulation". Meg sang it in the middle of the show and then at the very end Jack went over to the timpani and sang it himself. It was awesome.

actually, the name "White Stripes" is a collective noun and is plural, and therefore you are wrong. You wouldn't say "The Beatles is a good band" and likewise you wouldn't say "The White Stripes sucks."

I disagree. I WOULD say "The Beatles" is an amazing band. In much the
same way I would say The Grapes of Wrath is awesome, not
The Grapes of Wrath are awesome or "Aliens" have really good
special effects.

I can understand where you're coming from though, because the band
name seems to refer to the members of the band. But I think it's one of
those commonly misused expressions that we grow to get so used to that
we think it's correct.

Ever heard of buying cd's?

I was rather disappointed by this album actually. There are some good songs on there, but only three or four that I regularly listen to. I wasn't too impressed by their Glastonbury performance either, but I guess I'm not a 'hardcore' White Stripes fan so I wouldn't understand.

Ofcourse, but i never buy Cd's! Albums maybe, but I never buy Singles or anything like that, whats the point?
I hardly have any money anyway, i dont have a job, Im too young to have a job thankyouverymuch.
I never even bought DeadLetters (The Rasmus) I have a copy :weep:
But im saving up for Hide From The Sun which is released in September, And im paying the full price ^_^

[Mitch]

Fair enough. Singles are a waste of money, unless they have awesome b-sides on them. I stupidly brought the single of Blue Orchid as it had two songs that weren't on the album. Biggest waste of $5. It seems there is a reason that they were not on the album.

*points to sig*
I used to think they were singular, like Led Zeppelin is cool, but apparently I should say Led Zeppelin are cool. That doesn't make sense to me much though. Like, "The Gang are" is still kinda weird. Because, wouldn't I really say "Led Zeppelin is comprised of Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, John Paul Jones, and Charles Bonham", not "Led Zeppelin are comprised of ..."? I dunno for sure.

But I think I would say The White Stripes are not good, because their name is plural. I understand the counterargument with the book titles and movie names, but I think it's pretty set that titles refer to singularities... well, I'm an engineer, so whatever.
