Just sing and play, jackDammit! There is nothing worse than getting to know too much about people, especially famous people. Too often, almost always, they disappoint. In the end they are usually just like you and me - FLAWED - but with more money.
Anyway, I'm a HUGE fan of Jack White, but then he had to go and open his mouth on politics and wars.
Turns out the US Air Force ripped off Jack's "Fell in Love with a Girl" for their Super Bowl ad, without his permission.
Sue 'em, please. I don't have a problem with that. Instead, however, Jack had to go off about "a war he doesn't support". War? Please, just stop. War? Why not throw in the evils of capitalism, something in which every successful entertainer knows well?
I mean, honestly, I don't give one F what Jack White thinks about whatever war he is talking about. If Jack wants to rage against the machine - into which he feeds tons of profits - then start where you can actually have an effect. Save the public service announcements for those with washed up careers.
Besides, if you really don't like the war, Jack, write a fricken song about it. Maybe I'll buy it, maybe I won't, but I'll respect you more.
