Music Video
The music video for this song, directed by Michel Gondry, depicts Jack White coming back to his trashed house and surveying reckless destruction. While he goes from room to room, sepia video of the party events that led to the decimation (and of his and Meg's relationship before he left) is superimposed over the scene, until in the final scene she leaves him.

Famous quotes containing the words music and/or video:
“Nothing is capable of being well set to music that is not nonsense.”
—Joseph Addison (1672–1719)
“It is among the ranks of school-age children, those six- to twelve-year-olds who once avidly filled their free moments with childhood play, that the greatest change is evident. In the place of traditional, sometimes ancient childhood games that were still popular a generation ago, in the place of fantasy and make- believe play . . . today’s children have substituted television viewing and, most recently, video games.”
—Marie Winn (20th century)
