    Apple Blossom Lyrics:
    Hey, little apple blossom
    What seems to be the problem?
    All the ones you tell your troubles to
    They don't really care for you
    Come and tell me what you're thinking
    'Cause just when the boat is sinking
    A little light is blinking
    And I will come and rescue you
    Lots of girls walk around in tears
    But that's not for you
    You've been looking all around for years
    For someone to tell your troubles to
    Come and sit with me and talk awhile
    Let me see your pretty little smile
    Put your troubles in a little pile
    And I will sort 'em out for you
    Lots of girls walk around in tears
    But that's not for you
    You've been looking all around for years
    For someone to tell your troubles to
    Come and sit with me and talk awhile
    Let me see your pretty little smile
    Put your troubles in a little pile
    And I will sort them out for you
    I'll fall in love with you
    I think I'll marry you
    Death Letter Lyrics:
    I got a letter this morning
    What do you reckon it read?
    It said, "The gal you love is dead."
    I got a letter this morning
    What do you reckon it read?
    Said, "Hurry, hurry because the gal you love is dead."
    Well, I packed up my suitcase
    I took off down the road
    When I got there, she was laying on the cooling board
    I packed up my suitcase and I took off down the road
    When I got there, she was laying on the cooling board
    It looked like ten thousand people standing around the burying ground
    I didn't know I loved her, 'til they began to let her down
    Looked like ten thousand people standing on the burying ground
    I didn't know that I loved her, 'til they began to let her down
    You know, it's so hard to love someone that don't love you
    Won't get satisfaction, don't care what you do
    So hard to love someone that don't love you
    Don't look like satisfaction and I don't care what you do
    Well, I got up this morning, the break of day
    Just hugging the pillows where she used to lay
    Got up this morning, would you believe?
    The break of day
    Just hugging the pillows where my baby used to lay

      it's like a Beatles song, honestly. I love how Jack didn't stick to the same formula all the time and made some exceptions to their usual, much heavier sound. These cute 'exceptions' now have become an unreplacable part of their sound, that i couldn't live without. I love this song too and I think Paul McCartney wishes he wrote it lol

      @nickb3968 4 роки тому +5

      @Me, Also Me I'm not really sure what year their stuff was classified officially as psychedelic,but I'm thinking before that. Some of the Beatles style spans all of it though and Apple Blossom shares some similarities(in a good way) in my humble opinion. I miss a certain simplicity that's pleasing to the ear in music. Seems like everything's overproduced in rock-n-roll for some time now. (White Stripes excepted)

    • @theccarbiter

    Man that was such a magic time for those two musically. Every note, every beat, every word no matter how flawed or well done was absolutely perfect. They could do no wrong. I was fortunate enough to see them on two separate tours at the Greek in LA for White blood cells and Elephant and quality wise in a rock and roll sense the only live band I have seen that I could compare it to is AC/DC in the sense that every single song was great and was better live than the studio versions.

    • @jetsamperes5762
      @jetsamperes5762 3 роки тому +1

      The performance of Death Letter live at the Greek where he becomes so intense that he practically pushes Meg off her kit at the end is one of the best live performances of any song ever.

      @daphnetruman 3 роки тому +2

      @@jetsamperes5762 My wife and I saw them at the Greek in LA for the Elephant and Get behind me Satan tours and the shows were phenomenal. Watching JW on stage then was like really watching someone work. He did not play, he worked his ass off. One song he broke two strings and you couldn't even tell he was down to 4 strings. Just giving it his all. We saw him just a couple years ago in San Diego and he was very good but those years with Meg were truly special.

    This is greatness! An early White Stripes Detroit TV 📺 appearance! They were really getting big and popular. Bigger than Detroit! They busted out of the Detroit scene and started touring the World 🌎. The other Detroit Bands went nowhere. There really wasn’t much of a scene. Only the White Stripes made it big!
    Even the late Great DJ John Peel was impressed with the Stripes.
    He did a great Peel session with them for Posterity! The Stripes played like they were on fire!

      Meg White playing with one hand while the other sits on her hip. Meg White never missing a cue even without a setlist. That time Meg refused to play Aluminum live in Canada and Jack had to change the song. Meg White having an anxiety disorder but still playing festivals and live TV in a two person band. Meg White leaving fame behind on her terms while on top and never looking back.

    What seems to be the problem?
    All the ones you tell your troubles to
    They don't really care for you
    Come and tell me what you're thinking
    Cause just when the boat is sinking

    And I will come and rescue you

    But that's not for you

    For someone to tell your troubles to
    Come and sit with me and talk awhile
    Let me see your pretty little smile
    Put your troubles in a little pile
    And I will sort them out for you
    Lots of girls walk around in tears
    But that's not for you

    For someone to tell your troubles to
    I'll fall in love with you
