Aww man. Comeon. One of the great covers of the last 20 years (though I didn't listen to that particular version).

Please post the version you like.

Just curious.

I actually listened to the one you posted after I posted, and I like it just fine. I just wasn't sure if it was a substandard recording, and that's why he was saying it was painful.

Here's the album version, though:


I probably like the live version as much or more, though, because it has more energy... though the version above blew me away when I first heard it due to the whole lofi, garage bluesy thing being so different from other stuff I was listening to at that particular time.

Yeah, I like the live one better. Nothing wrong with the studio version but of the two I'm choosing the live one for energy alone. I actually did a youtube search for this song right after I posted this and already listened to this exact version.

Yeah. I'm nostalgic for the record because it takes me back to a very specific time in my life when a friend came in from out of town and said, "Dude. Check this out." The White Stripes (along with the Strokes and a few others) completely changed the type of music I listened to (I was a hard core jamband and bluegrass fan).

But yes... taking that out of the equation: I like the live version better.

That's what music is supposed to do. Nothing wrong with that.
