    #TheRaconteurs #OldEnough #OfficialVideo
    Lyrics:
    [Verse 1]
    You look pretty in your fancy dress
    But I detect unhappiness
    You never speak so I have to guess
    You're not free
    [Verse 2]
    There, maybe when you're old enough
    You'll realize you're not so tough
    And some days the seas get rough
    And you'll see
    [Verse 3]
    You're too young to have it figured out
    You think you know what you're talking about
    You think it will all work itself out
    But we'll see
    [Bridge]
    When I was young I thought I knew
    You probably think you know too
    Do you?
    Well do you?
    I was naive just like you
    I thought I knew exactly what I wanted to do
    Well, what you gonna do?
    (What a fool)
    [Verse 4]
    And how have you gotten by so far
    Without having no visible scar?
    No one knowing who you really are
    They can't see
    [Chorus]
    What you gonna do (what you gonna do)
    What you gonna do now
    [Bridge]
    The only way you'll ever learn a thing
    Is to admit that you know absolutely nothing
    Oh nothing
    Think about this carefully
    You might not get another chance to speak freely
    Oh freely
    [Outro]
    Baby when you're old enough
    Baby when you're old enough
    Baby when you're old enough
    You're not free
    You're not free

    I am absolutely convinced that, if we see another Raconteurs album (let's hope), they are going to explore a deeper Rock/Americana/Bluegrass sound. This album was not just one of the best albums of the year, but was one of the most solid rock albums in the history of the music.

    • @phillipnicewaner4480
      @phillipnicewaner4480 Před 3 lety +3

      Nah, it was a great album. Heavy Blues and Folk elements (the heart of good Rock) with the modern Rock sound. The last one was okay at best. I was convinced this was going to be the direction of musical exploration. I hope they dive deeper into this sound.

    • @phillipnicewaner4480
      @phillipnicewaner4480 Před 3 lety +2

      I didn't particularly like The Dead Weather and most of the White Stripes' music was just okay with a couple handfuls of great songs. The second Raconteurs' album captured everything that made Rock music great in the 70s that slowly disappeared in the 80s.

      Brendon's role in the group stands out more as I continue to explore their material. His voice pair so well with Jack's. The bassist is Jack Lawrence. He seems quiet, or at least reserved, but his grooves work so well in this song. The drummer is Patrick Keeler
      , always keeping a steady but creative beat.

    I wasn't aware of this song until I heard the version they made with Ashley Monroe and Ricky Skaggs. Then I went back and listened to the original. It's an apples-to-oranges comparison, and frankly I don't think it's worthwhile to say which version is "better". They are two different takes on an excellent song, and I love both. I'm glad that these four have a space to explore this kind of sound.

    This is bad ass. It brings the awesmoness of that show Peaky Blinders to mind. Feels ferocious in it's own genre.I know how I would react to it with another band, but right here with Jack White and these arrangemnets. I could easily give this song a #1 position on a list of a lot of other songs. This rocks!

    Ok, so I am a huge Jack fan, and all he has touched. I admit that I haven't obsessed over every video he has done, though. I am also a tarot reader. So as I am watching, and they slowly reveal the blindfolded woman, and her hands start to move across her corset, I sort of thought I knew what we were headed for, so-to-speak - and when the tarot card of the hanged man manifested itself before my eyes I literally gasped. I was really taken aback! I don't know how many mystical symbols (cont'd)
