Classic
Story time: The first time I heard this song was getting out of US Navy boot camp. I walked into my barracks room, and my bunkmate was drunk and knew I was fresh out of boot camp and the same age as him (older compared to who you would think would join the military). The first sound I heard was this song when I walked in. He is deadpan and blanked-face when he casually turns to look at me and asks while pointing at the screen, “You know anything about this song?” I responded with “No, but I’m always happy to learn new things.” Guy was my drinking buddy for over 2 years.
They’re a very prolific band, and released almost an album a year from then until about 2020.
Abd have released 2 albums since then I think.
Señor Smoke and Switzerland are both fun albums.
I hope it’s the censored version because if I hear “start a war, start a nuclear war” in my headphones, I will be tempted to send an ICBM, I know that.

That’s what they censored?
Yes, weirdly enough

Jack White’s best work??
I’ve dug this song for all my adult life, but wasn’t aware he was on this one. It really might be his peak lol
Dig this tune
The Bush Blair version was the best
