Check out the video

    You’ve been working out?

    I think the audio on the clip is actually some mixed up recording of another unrelated song — not the actual song itself.

    i don’t think i’m seeing straight cause i thought that mojo headline read: ‘meg’s boobs return!’

    Ok I totally don’t want to say this but don’t you immediately think of MCR. With all their success with the Black Parade, skeletons and all?? I don’t know, just a random thought. I’m am so excited about the new album. I CAN’T WAIT!!!!!

    ^Oh God no!! MCR and The White Stripes should NOT be spoken in the same breath EVER!

    Best news of the month! Um, it is 3/1, but can it get any better. And I like how quickly this video got out there! Jack and Meg seem to be right on the times! Should be a great summer record! Is another free show somewhere around NYC too much to ask?

    WOO-HOO! This is the best news of 2007 so far. I can’t wait for the new album and, more importantly, the tour. Hopefully, it’ll be a big ‘un. :D

    I want to continue the woo hoo comments! I’m so excited! Thanks for posting all that news modernage.

    P.s how can a having a skeleton dance in the back be like MCR? What they have the rights to all things skeletal? If anything they aestheticlly ripped of WS a long time ago.. not that there is anything wrong with that. I love them both. But anyway…
