I liked how he tweaked his song lyrics

"The great disease was mighty. People were sick everywhere.
The great disease was mighty. People were sick everywhere.
It was an epidemic
and it travelled through the air."

That is some damned unconventional drumming... I don't understand it, but I like it!

Moving this video to eric3579's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.

After Bill Burr talked about it on his podcast (https://videosift.com/video/Bill-Burr-talks-about-his-SNL-experience) I feel it deserves one more shot at getting sifted. It's just so good. *promote

Jack White uses the guitar Eddie Van Halen made for him in this song. You can also spot when Jack does a few seconds of signature Van Halen on the guitar.

He kinda resembles Sigourney Weaver. Great stuff and very passionate.

I didn't like that one bit - mediocre singing, mediocre playing / solos, awful overly distorted trebly tone...yuck. In my opinion, so much better talent out there, both past and present.

You need the right bait to attract the fish you want to catch. You're just not the right fish for that bait.

I usually skip/mute all music performances on SNL, Jack Whites' no exception. But the after-show buzz made me sift it.

Not my type of music, but I do appreciate the lyrics.
