We will always love you, Jack and Meg. You've been an incredibly inspiring band, and we will never stop loving your music. ♥

Along with literary classics like "I Hear America Singing" by Walt Whitman, "Working Words" has more recent anthems by Eminem, Jack White and Bob Dylan. These stars, like the other current authors in the book, gave M.L. Liebler permission to use their works free to show support for a project saluting the working class.

• The lyrics to Jack White's "The Big Three Killed My Baby," which is on "The White Stripes" album, are in the anthology. White used to come to poetry readings long before Liebler realized who he was. "I didn't know that until one time -- and this was just before they were starting to get famous in England -- someone said, 'Oh, Jack White is here.' I go: 'Jack White's here? Where? ... That guy?' "

• Liebler originally wanted to use Bob Dylan's "Last Thoughts on Woody Guthrie." He ended up including that poem and two Dylan songs after reaching the icon's management through veteran guitarist and producer Al Kooper -- he's also included in the book -- who told him to call Dylan associate Jeff Rosen. When Rosen's assistant called, Liebler says he was told: "Jeff talked to Bob and Bob said you can have whatever you want, gratis."

I'm glad Jack hasn't fogotten where he came from.

It's meant to be a Karen Elson article but Jack is in a lot of the photographs and mentioned quite a lot in the interview. I think it's pretty sad that Jack had to help promote her album to be honest. If it was me I would want to be 'my thing'.

Jack White has said he thinks his White Stripes bandmate Meg White has beaten her issues with anxiety, which forced the duo to curtail their last world tour in September 2007.

Since then, the drummer has only made sporadic public appearances, and not played a full gig.

Asked if he wanted to reconvene with Meg any time soon, the White Stipes man told The Times: "I would like to," before adding: "I don't think her anxiety exists any more. But I don't know."

White, who is currently gearing up to release his second album with The Dead Weather, 'Sea Of Cowards', on May 10, continued by saying that he and Meg still see each other regularly.

"She was there when we were rehearsing for The Dead Weather, and Karen [Elson, White's wife]'s band was rehearsing in the next building," he explained. "She's still involved and everything, but we've never sat down and gone, 'OK, so don't forget to block out three months...' Although we  never did that, even in the thick of the craziness of The White Stripes."

Back in March, White praised Meg's drumming skills, saying her simplicity "inspires people" to follow her lead.

Long time lurker, first time poster, and forever a fan \o/ So I got my shiny box set several weeks ago, which I love to pieces, and I finally buckled down to take some screencaps of the documentary, because it's amazing, though predominately one of my friends requested me to do so. So now that that's done, I thought I'd share with the lovely White Stripes community and fans said screencaps:

I focused on mainly taking pictures of Jack, again because my friend asked me to, but if I have time down the road I will definitely take more focusing on Meg. Also, I'm sorry about being too lazy to crop the images down, so there are like, insignificant borders around them that are my desktop. Sorry! Anyways, I hope you guys enjoy! Feel free to take said images and do whatever you want, I don't mind one bit. No credit or anything. Just enjoy and that's good enough for me =D
