I want love to
Roll me over slowly
Stick a knife inside me
And twist it all around
I want love to
Grab my fingers gently
Slam them in a doorway
Put my face into the ground
I want love to
Murder my own mother and
Take her off to somewhere
Like hell or up above
And I want love to
Change my friends to enemies
Change my friends to enemies
And show me how it's all my fault
Yeah, I won't let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me
I won't let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me
I won't let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me
Anymore
I want love to
Walk right up and bite me
Grab a hold of me and fight me
Leave me dying on the ground
And I want love to
Split my mouth wide open and
Cover up my ears
And never let me hear a sound
I want love to
Forget that you offended me
Or how you had defended me
When everybody tore me down
Yeah, I want love to
Change my friends to enemies
Change my friends to enemies
And show me how it's all my fault
Yeah, I won't let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me
I won't let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me
I won't let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me
Anymore
lucyvp | Posted: Nov 26, 2017 20:11 The songwriting here is brilliant. There are other live versions of this song that I prefer. But Jack White is the real deal and then some. |
Stephen_Phillips (Hillsborough, Northern Ireland) | Posted: Sep 27, 2017 3:29 Others below have commentated on Jack White's voice as being... 'unique', 'borderline annoying', 'tonality and inflection' etc. From a purist singing point of view his voice wanders all over place and that is not necessarily so bad - think Robert Smith of The Cure. The trouble here is that JW does double tracked harmonies with his own voice and while that is common practice in the music industry production when you have a wandering voice then getting harmonies of yourself is a hit and miss affair. Having had many years singing lessons as a boy I hear any imperfections in pitch and tone and unfortunately this song grates on my ears. |

Danimal174 (Upstate South Carolina) | Posted: Feb 29, 2016 13:02 Not a fan of Jack White, who seems to think he's way better than he is. Also not a fan of this song, as it's over-repetitive, in my opinion. Just my two cents... |

He's a musical genius, along with Jimmy Page & The Edge. And if you like those guys, "It Might Get Loud" is mandatory! VERY VERY good documentary! Worthy of viewing for sure ![]() |

As with almost any vocalist of global renoun, you have to listen past surface and hear the unique inflection that makes them popular. It's nice when God given tonality, voice coaching, regional dialectic and accent and personal soul (comprised of affect, attitude, emotion...) all come together in one, but the great thing about pop is its function of promoting the central spirit fire of the worthy so we can hear it even when the lovely decorations don't all fall together as we would wish. |
