The best thing is this takes the song back to the New Orleans blues that inspired The White Stripes in the first place. Its like a St James Infirmary Blues. Its why it works so well.
I don't know if CW Stoneking knows but his got Robi Draco Rosa praising him in many interviews from Puerto Rico to Colombia, Mexico, USA etc... Ok Draco Rosa goes by a few names like Robi Rosa (Frio spanish Albums), Phantom vox, and many others... He started in Menudo, then Did the Salsa Hollywood movie. Then Started a band called Maggies Dream in California. Lenny Kravitz praised him etc... He wass the chorus in many Ricky Martin Spanish records. He wrote and compose many of RM greatest hits. Like Maria, Living la Vida loca, She Bangs, The Cup of Life for FIFA etc... His Album VAGABUNDO is a Cult Masterpiece of Heavy dark , melancholic Poetic rock. He has many layers of voices thru one songs. And he does them all.. In English if anybody is curious check Songbirds and Roosters Album...Draco travels thru genres... Check his medley of 2 songs at the Grammys..Dracois Puerto Rico's REAL best talented artist , definitely not Bad Bunny!...So I was curious about CW Stoneking from hearing Draco talking about him... Loved it!
I personally feel that a successful cover keeps the original melody and adapts it to the artist's personal style. I'm getting none of that, here. Not for me, though he's clearly a good singer.

this is one of the best covers i have seen on triple j. they got it just right, and this cover is straight up the right alley. it is amazing.
This song showed me the true power of artist interpretation an absolutely insane cover that shaped my taste in music tbh
Exactly !
We need a new Stoneking album !!!!
Nothing else like it on this great good earth - god bless CW 🙏🏻
I've been waiting for this video to come back online for so long. Thank you for putting it back up again triple j

My absolute FAVORITE Like A Version. I will vote this one for Number 1! Was it filmed to purposefully look old-timey??

I prefer a comment from someone with taste so your contribution is not for me
My big toe has more understanding of music than you do
