Your First Look: White Stripes’ Icky Thump Video

May 23, 2007

in music, white stripes

According to the press releases, the White Stripes video for “Icky Thump” will premiere on AOL tomorrow (Thursday)…but here are some stills from the video shoot to wet your appetite.

Methinks it looks all sorts of amazing. I love the last shot with Jack looking past the woman’s leg, and who else is super-excited to see the return of the classic all-red tshirt and pants outfit on Jack? It’s making my obligatory Jack White photo very proud.

However I am concerned about the zebra. I learned on the Colbert Show that they are the nastiest animals in the zoo because they will bite someone until they are dead. Zebras kill more zoo keepers than lions do.

It’s not a zebra, it’s a painted mule.

I just came to post the same thing, Charlie. I had no idea zebras were that dangerous. Good thing it’s not a real one! Also, Jack looks dreamy in that last pic…and Meg looks so gorgeous in that one shot. Yay, the Stripes are BACK!

It must be his bump from when he hit it on the radio or maybe it is when was alone and hit himself with a stone.

I’ve heard the album. Any white stripes fan will NOT be disappointed. heres some lyrics from you dont know what love is:

in some respects I suspect youve got a respectable side/when pushed and pulled and pressured you seldom run and hide/but if for someone elses benefit not for what you want to do/until i realize that you’ve realized I’m gonna say these words to you/ yeah you dont know what love is/you do as youre told

Why is nobody commented on the fact that Meg has now gone all red haired on us for this video!!

Is this a subliminal message (ie he wishes Meg was still his wife, does he think Karen is a mexican prostitute?). I am going out now to buy red hair dye now. Blonde is dead.

Fab song also. Fab video, as usual.
