The Black Keys, Tighten Up.

Listening to the Black Keys, one has the feeling of listening to big drums like Bonham's and a blues rock guitar like Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top, but the music has nothing to do with it. They are unique and that's a great compliement to give to a band from the new millenium.


This Ohio duo start their career in their basement (in fact their second album was recorded with a Tascam in Patrick Carney's basement.

Drummer Patrick Carney and vocalist/guitarist Dan Auerbach has new ideas and new sound to really innovative blues rock and this great music was noticed by many movies, videogames and TV producers that added it to FIFA 11, The Vampire Diaries and School of Rock Soundtracks.

The Black Keys - Tighten Up [OFFICIAL VIDEO]

[via theblackkeys]

I wanted love, I needed love, 

Most of all, most of all 

Someone said true love was dead 

And I'm bound to fall, bound to fall 

For you 

Oh, what can I do?

Take my badge but my heart remains 

Lovin' you, baby child 

Tighten up on your reigns 

You're runnin' wild, runnin' wild 

It's true

Sick for days in so many ways 

I'm achin' now, I'm achin' now 

It's times like these I need relief 

Please show me how, oh show me how 

To get right

Yes outside

When I was young and moving fast 

Nothing slowed me down, slowed me down 

Now I let the others pass 

I've come around, oh come around

Cause I've found

Living just to keep going 

Going just to be sane 

All the while I know it

Such a shame

I don't need to get steady 

I know just how I feel 

Telling you to get ready 

My dear
