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:
“Did the kiss of Mother Mary
Put that music in her face?
Yet she goes with footstep wary,
Full of earth’s old timid grace.”
