Ha, im pretty sure Barrett’s Privateers is one of Colbert’s favorite songs(I think he mentioned it in an interview somewhere?) and the look of sheer delight and amazement on his face at 4:00 when Jack White mentioned it is just so endearing. It’s that heart-leaping moment of ‘oh my god someone mentioned that niche thing I’m obsessed with’
And he sang it with Michael Buble, too. Being from Nova Scotia and having MET Stan Rogers, Stephen and Evie really have to come up for Stanfest in Canso. Then off to Sherbrooke, NS!
Only Jack White would know that Marcel Marceau had released a silent album as a funny novelty. I swear, he has the entire history of vinyl in his braincase.
He's amazing. I highly recommend "It Might Get Loud" with him, Jimmy Page and The Edge. I knew who Jack was, but hadn't heard/seen much of him. I was so impressed. Definitely three genius's on this show. Well worth watching. Trailer: ua-cam.com/video/4YvNVqf2at0/v-deo.html

I am DELIGHTED-in awe, actually-to have heard a STAN ROGERS tune sung on an AMERICAN broadcast, nearly 40 years after the late, great, BIG guy passed away on a Cincinnati runway (Air Canada 797). Not only was Stan Rogers's demise untimely, but his talent as a lyricist and musician hadn't extended to the popular airwaves anywhere; blessed were/are those who knew his indie-level music, then (and now)! I am old enough to recall my Dad's sadness when Stan Rogers passed away. I remember asking Dad to turn off Stan's "boring" records-both prior and after Stan's untimely passing; at times, I'd make fun of Dad for listening to (what I considered as) "Maritime" music. Dad was not from the Maritime provinces; he was born and raised out west, in British Columbia (small-town, northern BC, at that!). He was introduced to Stan Rogers's music when he began working (as a police officer) in Windsor (then Toronto), Ontario; among RCMP members from the Maritimes. Stan Rogers: was from HAMILTON, Ontario. His mother was from Nova Scotia. He sang about blue-collar life and matters. When my Dad passed away in June 2006 (at 56, as a consequence of C-PTSD): we scattered some of his cremains into a lake, with ... Stan Rogers music, playing loudly in the background. I hope both men have met and become familiar with each other, at The Big Beer Parlour in the Sky. Irony: Jack White is from Detroit. Detroit, MI: across the river from Windsor, Ontario🇨🇦-where my Dad met & married Mum, and I was born.
I didn't know the song Barrett's Privateers, but I had to look it up thanks to this video and thanks to your comment. What you wrote here was so lovely and moving that I read it out loud to my beau. He said, "Yes! Stan Rogers! He's one of the best songwriters ever. I heard about his music from Danny Quinn* who covered Stan's song 'Lies' back in the '90s and early 2000s. Whenever Danny would play it at a show, the whole place would be silent just to take it all in. From that song, I just had to learn who Stan Rogers was and devour his music." (*Danny Quinn was full-time working musician who primarily played the Irish bar circuit from roughly Connecticut down to the Delaware beaches, here in the midatliantic US. Danny had a really dedicated following; never made it super-big, but at least he was able to make a living just by playing out. He also died way too young from a brain aneurysm outta nowhere, sadly before I ever got to see him play live. He has a bunch of albums, and here's a link to Danny Quinn's version of Stan Rogers' "Lies" if you're interested (ua-cam.com/video/9M8yKLRw1aM/v-deo.html ). Danny does it in C (where Stan does it lower in G) and it's such a pretty version. Both are glorious and a punch to the gut. I hope Danny is also at that bar with your dad and Stan.) Your dad not only had great taste, but he clearly raised a kind, thoughtful, considerate human and it's an honor to share a planet with you. Thank you for being awesome.
Thank you ro sharing your personal story. It shows that both your father and you were and are great human beings. My Stan Rogers story is much more lightweight. I was at, of all things, a science fiction convention in the filk (music of science fiction fandom) room when a group called Windbourne showed up. One of the people in the room requested that they play something. The song they did was "Lies." One of the lines in the song is "She'd pass for 29 but for her eyes." They had started the song just before midnight; while they were singing, I literally turned 30 (yes, it really was my birthday!). I knew that Colbert had gotten into Stan Rogers during the pandemic, but I had no idea that Jack White was into him! What's most amazing about Stan Rogers is how his music has stood the test of time. Even his "White Collar Holler" is still relevant!
What?!!! That was awesome. You guys caught each other totally off-guard with Barrett's Privateers. The shocked expression on Stephen's face when Jack mentioned it was priceless. Y'awll mighta' dropped out of schtick right at that moment, but it was absolutely priceless.
I love that Jack got Stephen to sing the year in the first line, because I usually mumble the end of it (you know, to come in strong on the chorus). I remembered the Bublé segment (loved it), but I was pretty shocked when the rockstar (love him) sang it too. All very exciting, so many favourite people and things in such a compact clip! Thank you, universe!
But no surprise, eh? In case you DON'T know, Jack White's ancestry is in Cape Breton, NS. His family name is Gillis and they went to the States for work. Like so many others from Eastern Canada. He became "Jack White" when he married Meg and took her name.
That's cool news about Jack. I've known about him for ages and never knew he came from practically next door to me. I spent the 80s and 90s singing along to Barrett's Privateers in Irish pubs in The Maritimes. Jack would have no choice but to know it, coming from here.
Just saw Jack White in concert a few weeks ago. He is the most amazing performer I have seen since I saw the late great Freddie Mercury in his last show ever in Seattle in 1983. Do yourself a favor and go see this man live. I guarantee he will blow your mind.
@@michaelrmurphy2734 i am only just discovering stan rogers… i have the between the breaks album… which features this tune… my kids both love singing it now. He is unbelievable… (jack would probably agree with your comment too)
I think we just got a glimpse of genius at work! I usually don't like these segments (I've seen only the movie ones -- I think the album angle is new), but this was one of the best pieces he's ever done. Jack White is surprisingly quick and clever--- he can certainly keep up with Stephen--- and Stephen was so genuinely surprised to find that common ground with him.
I saw jack white in halifax where he sang Barretts Privateers. He of course has some cape breton roots through his mother. A truly special moment with of course no phones. Only us 10000 people got to enjoy it
Right there with you brother, I've tried to find it over the years, even asked jack on his instagram, all he said to me was "pics or it didn't happen." One of those amazing moments that I think will live on purely and exclusively in our minds.
Love Stan Rogers, grew up listening to his albums after school on my grandmother's turntable, along with some records of Rita McNeil, and Anne Murray. The people of Kjipuktuk, Mi'qumaki (Halifax, Nova Scotia) adore the beautiful gem who is Stan Rogers. Thank you for honoring his memory!
Born and raised in Springhill so definitely immersed in Anne Murray. I actually attended school with 2 of her nieces. And summer is 2023 my wife and I vacationed in Halifax and went on the harbour hopper, our driver captain Dave was very musical and as we were arriving back at the pier we sang the Chorus of Barrett’s privateers. Ironically on the day Jimmy buffet passed
Now to convince Jack White to release an entire album that is a mix of classic Sea Shanties and original compositions that SOUND like classic Sea Shanties.
OMG...I didn't think I could fan-girl over Jack White anymore until this! Jack and Stephen - a duet of one of my favorite shanties EVER! That was awesome! 🏴☠❤🏴☠❤🏴☠❤🏴☠❤🏴☠❤
The more I see of Jack White the more I love the guy. Do yourself a favor and search for his cameo as Elvis in Walk Hard: The Dewy Cox story. He’s hilarious.
Wtf are the odds steven gets to do this song twice in one year???? Buble and white, couldn't be further from eachother style wise but the sea shanty knows no bounds.

I must've been a fan of Jack for 20 years now (omg), and he's even funnier than I realized 😂 I remember when he was on barter bros or American pickers or something and had them go through the extreme hassle of getting him a taxidermied white elephant, and when they arrived with it, he said "I don't like it, take it away" 😂 then laughed and thanked them and took his elephant. Brilliant 😂
Fuckin love that episode! I forget - did Jack buy it straight up or was there a trade involved? I seem to remember one of those selfie photo booths (i could TOTALLY be making that up in my head).
Just replay it on Colbert's face when he hears Jack say Barrett's Privateers - the following genuine emotions go over his face in a two seconds: 1) Wait... what? 2) Holy shit he knows that song 3) Ohh my god how cool is this? 4)Then almost elated disbelief

Instead of Jack and Coke,

Very cute enterview!
He's taking the 'White' thing literally now, I see.
this makes me so sad for both of them

Is he naturally that pale? He looks like a cool vampire.
No, no... Makeup I'm sure. I think I saw him rather tanned one time.
Rachel Maddow interviewing Jack White. Man life is good.
