The White Stripes - In The Cold, Cold Night
Little known fact for ya - Jack took Meg’s surname of White (to become Jack and Meg White) when they were married in 1996. And even though they divorced in 2000, it must of been amiable enough that they’ve been able to record 6 albums and garner 3 Grammys.
Unorthodox ain’t it? And that’s exactly why we love The White Stripes. Because they are unorthodox and make kick ass music. The longest they’ve ever taken to record an album is 3 weeks and generally it is recorded on equipment that is pre-1960s. I had a hard time deciding which song to post, so I decided to post one of their more underrated ones (in my humble opinion). Self-proclaimed shy girl Meg provides vocals on this track which doesn’t happen too often. She’d much rather sit in the background and pound her drums. Which works for the band. But I’m glad she came out of her shell a bit to record this song. It’s one of my favorites off of Elephant. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

The White Stripes - In The Cold, Cold Night
I saw you standing in the corner
On the edge of a burning light
I saw you standing in the corner
Come to me again in the cold cold night
In the cold cold night
You make me feel a little older
Like a full grown women might.
But when you gonna grow colder
Come to me again in the cold cold night
In the cold cold night
I hear you walkin’ by my front door
I hear the creakin’ of the kitchen floor
I don’t care what other people say
I’m gonna love you anyway
Come to me again in the cold cold night
In the cold cold night
I can’t stand it any longer
I need the fuel to make my fire bight
So don’t fight it any longer
Come to me again in the cold cold night
In the cold cold night
And I know that you feel it too
When my skin turns into glue
You will know that it’s warm inside
And you’ll come run to me
In the cold cold night
In the cold cold night
In the cold cold night
In the cold cold night
