A wonderful performance and a free download too. I'm happy.

Great song - stuck it in a mix http://8tracks.com/jinjahman/that-guitar

Extraordinary passage of expression perfectly resolved with tenderness of reassurance, inspired delivery....phew 

Great song - expert songcraft - beautiful delivery

This is my preferred version of this track, just need some touches of sounds here and there, vocals are perfect and give the plus

ZEN and the ART of payin' DUES

The cover of the song "Dead Leaves And The Dirty Ground" written by The White Stripes (released in 2001 on their album 'White Blood Cells')

Vocals: Amanda Sanderson ( @phoebeelena )
Backing Music (Drums and Guitars) & Production: Hiroshi Kohno

I’d like to thank Amanda for her great contribution with a splendid vocal performance to this project.

-------
Backing music of the song is the simplest one I've ever done- only with drums and guitars, without bass, any solo either or fills...no fancy thing, just with a dirty fuzz explosion.  
And its simpleness  is what I think is the essential part of this song, besides the way how Jack White sang on it with great rhyming, and I found that it was actually well structured to work very effectively for supporting the vocal lines, remaining also the retro hard rock feels as Jack White told that he wanted to have "struggle" within their performance - with some tiny discrepancies and gaps between each position - not to be  mechanical, plastic, nor too much smooth. 
So, I tried to keep its simpleness and raw feels as much as possible in this cover, too, without adding any accessory note or extra effect. Whilst the vocals are quite colory with lots of slight changes within the similar lines, and Amanda sung her own lines on them, too, which I adore very much, and I'm very delighted to share it with you here. 

I hope you enjoy. Any feedback will be appreciated. 
Please do not forget to visit Amanda's page for more of excellent works by her.

Dead Leaves And The Dirty Ground - The White Stripes Cover - Featuring Amanda Sanderson on Vocals

Whore

Entropy

The Germs Invade

Come to me, the one that gives me air I breathe 
Talk to me, turn this head of me 
Fallen within, blood of love that thickens the seas 
Swim with me, and we see us through our dreams
But wait, as you wait, as you hate you look inside your mirror 
You see what you see is not you, you wish you’d never wither 
You drink as you dream that you never come through, never leave this fear 
It’s not here
Who’s the one, that sold you another one 
Taught us to turn this grace into one that’s an empty space 
Turn his head. Lay him on the floor on his face 
Shed a tear, this is never a dream too late

But wait, as you wait, as you hate you look inside your mirror 
You see what you see is not you, you wish you’d never wither 
You drink as you dream that you never come through, never leave this fear 
It’s not here
Teach me to say all the things I never knew I needed 
Or do you even see that I can’t believe my own little creatures 
Are yours just the same and we never thought we’d come through with this fear 
Is yours here?
Learning, learning, bathe me in the love of water 
Drown us forever 
Make this living a fire burning, come to see that fear is not here 
It’s not here

Come to Me(At The Raw Folks)
