Hmm...I've liked the White Stripes for a while, since before they were as popular as they are, through my sister, who listened to them and other local bands. I just bought their single Walking with a Ghost, and I like it a lot, it's my first White Stripes CD that I have on my own. Who else likes them?
Very Ape
I like them a lot. I love all their music videos, especially Fell In live With A Girl and The Hardest Button To Button. I need to get more of their cds though. I only have Elephant.
Holden
I like a lot of their stuff.. some of it is a tad repetative and boring though..
dumbstruck27
I dunno.. I can listen to them in short bursts.
presidentgasman
I reckon they're a bit boring for my like...kinda like Wolfmother.
mclaren
they're so much better than their singles indicate. great band.

I listen to the white stripes a lot recently. They make really good music. One of my favorite song is Hotel Yorba.

I played Seven Nation Army live confused.gif

I can't stand them, I'm not sure why, but they just scream into the mike. That's what they did on the daily show when they performed.

I love the White Stripes. Jack has a cool voice and most of their music is really original. Its an interesting sound. Not to mention they make the coolest music videos (especially the Hardest Button to Button)!

Yeah, i like them. 'The Denial Twist' is very catchy.
Watoosh
i like them. i used to have one of their cds, but i gave it to butttt because he likes them a lot more than i do. i still listen to them sometimes though. like when butttt brings his cds in the car because i only like the white stripes and the start out of basically all of his cds.
god
Denial twist is really great. Also like Blue orchid and a few others.
Iselilja
Yeah they're actuallt pretty good.
I love the lyrics from "Apple blossom", ment alot for me

I like the White Stripes. I can only listen to them in short bursts as well. I saw them in KC at the Starlight Theater....that was a good show.
Watoosh
my brother's in love with meg white. hahaha. well, at least that's what me and kaelen decided one day like, 2 years ago. i dont remember why though. and then we told the hot diner about it and he was all "she has big boobies, i used to see them all the time at this bar i went bowling at.".
Mrs Hahn
music is pretty cool
my sister saw them live
she said that it rocked
OasisFan
I've really tried to see what people see in them, but I just can't. I mean, I know A LOT of people who like them and think they're great. I'm not saying they're bad, but I just don't get it confused.gif . It kind of bugs me, actually tongue.gif . Could someone please share why they really like The White Stripes? I know Jack White is suppose to be a good guitarist (I know someone thinks he's the best ever). So what is it? Not to be rude, by any means, no, I've just been trying to figure it out for a long time. I mean, like I said, it seems like EVERYONE likes them....and I feel in the minority laugh.gif .
GDobsessed
i really love them. theyre different, and thats good.
66dookie66
Not everyone likes them. The only person, other than myself, that i know who likes them is my dad. I wouldn't be able to tell you why i liked them. That's like asking me why i like Green Day, or why i like The Living End. There are reasons, but they're hard to explain.
GreenDay-Idiot
I like some songs from them! they're really cool! and I admire Meg...thumbsup.gif
Twiggy
i saw them last year in düsseldorf (germany) and their show was really awesome
-wating-
I don't know almost any of their songs... but I really love seven nation army!
slappyhours
i didnt like the cd with seven nation army on it or whatever.... but their newer one was good.

and since when did jack white start acting? he was in this movie my mom was watching called cold mountain.
RegularDecoratedEmergency
I don't really listen to the White Stripes but I thought their song, "The Denial Twist" was pretty good. And Seven Nation Army.
King Of Some Island
I like White Blood Cells and Get Behind Me Satan
Chrismond
I quite like them actually. I find their music to be amazingly catchy - especially my doorbell - that song just grows on me all the time, hehe. They make really good music especially since it is just the two of them.
Greenforaday101
I don't like them.

Im confused though, everyone hear who likes them says they're good live. But I have heard countless tales of how they are terrible live.
dontsayitidontcare
I personally think that a pack of rabid fucking monkey could make better music that them!! bored.gif so there but hey that's just me! wacko.gif
extraordinary-gal
iv'e only really heard their music on kerrang but its seems to be good smile.gif
Robyn

Light My Fire
i fucking love the white stripes. probabaly my fav band well not but there right up there in my lil collection lol
King Of Some Island
AS I hear more and more stuff by them I like em more and more. Probobly one of my favorite bands.
dammit
I've never cared that much for them. But lately I've fallen in love with Seven Nation Army. It's actually a pretty damn good song. And I like My Doorbell. That song me got me into them. At least a bit. Those are the only songs, and the only ones I'm willing to listen.

I liked Jack in Cold Mountain. And he's actually kinda hot, and not.
