Vinyl is the real deal. I've always felt like, until you buy the vinyl record, you don't really own the album. And it's not just me or a little pet thing or some kind of retro romantic thing from the past. It is still alive. Jack White albumalivebuy share on social
I would never purposely sing a song about someone I love, I wouldn't want to embarrass them. But for someone I don't like... I would definitely do that. Jack White embarrasslovepurposely Change image and share on social
I think it takes a lot of trickery to keep up with the media and its perception of you. I don't know if I have it in me most of the time to care. The music is made first, and the interviews or photos to keep it alive come later as a necessary evil, I suppose. Jack White alivecareevil share on social
I think the sensitivity that you need to create certain things sometimes would spill over into things that shouldn't have bothered me. Jack White bothercreatesensitivity Change image and share on social
If you want to put out a million CDs and sell them and get them played on the radio, and even videos, or whatever, if that still exists, that kind of muscle can only come from a label like Columbia. Jack White columbiaexistkind Change image and share on social
I wanted to be able to talk with people who have trade jobs and make records with them. I want to do more records with carpenters, electricians, people who specialize in even more bizarre trades that are off the beaten path. Jack White beatbizarrecarpenter share on social
I'd make a White Stripes record right now. I'd be in the White Stripes for the rest of my life. That band is the most challenging, important, fulfilling thing ever to happen to me. I wish it was still here. It's something I really, really miss. Jack White bandchallengefulfill share on social
I think that sometimes love gets in the way of itself - you know, love interrupts itself. We want things so much that we sabotage them. Jack White interruptlovesabotage Change image and share on social
I consider music to be storytelling, melody and rhythm. A lot of hip-hop has broken music down. There are no instruments and no songwriting. So you're left with just storytelling and rhythm. And the storytelling can be so braggadocious, you're just left with rhythm. Jack White braggadociousbreakhip share on social
We were like a white family from the 1920s or something. My parents had this bizarre, different way of looking at things from the people that surrounded us. I went to an all-Mexican grade school and an all-black high school, and not many people in those places liked the same stuff as me. Jack White 1920sbizarreblack share on social
