The second single off Jack White’s debut solo album Blunderbuss. Debuted on Saturday Night Live and worlds apart from the first single “Love Interruption,” the rock and roll power of “ Sixteen Saltines” is all the evidence needed to show that White’s solo work will be as varied as it is accomplished. Coupled with White’s stinging cover of U2’s “Love is Blindness” (from Achtung Baby) and the record metaphorically jumps off turntable.
Jack White knew what he was doing when he took on "Love Is Blindness" as part of Q Magazine's 20th-anniversary tribute to U2's soon-to-be-reissued Achtung Baby. While the Irish arena rockers are probably best known for their windswept anthems, the Achtung Baby finale isn't too far from White's tastes in its original version: There's a "The House of the Rising Sun"-like chord progression, peals of organ, streaks of guitar fuzz, and a particularly emotion-wracked Bono vocal.
For this cover, the White Stripes frontman goes back to the song's down-and-dirty blues-rock heritage, howling the pained lyrics as if he were on a lost Nuggets cut.
