The White Stripes are great! The songs are very un-produced, but that's what makes it great. In the title song, "Icky Thump" there is one reference to prostitution. (Well you can't be a pimp and a prostitute, too) Other than that it's a powerful album with great songs.
Ahem.
I LOVE THIS SONG.
Yes, the Stripes are very quirkey and awesome.
My only concern is, after listening to this song
fifty-thousand times, I realize that they do say
"Well Americans, What, nothin' better to do?
Why don't you kick yourself out, you're an immigrant too.
Who's usin' who what should we do..." and then very
quietly "Well you can't be a pimp and a prostitute too."
If you can get past that, then enjoy the music!
