"Not, as one might initially assume, a reference to the Merseybeat band from noted scholar of 60s obscurity Jack White, but a rare White Stripes protest song (of sorts), decrying the US automobile industry's penchant for engineering planned obsolescence in cars."
"As it's Meg White's 50th birthday, it seems only right to honour her finest moment not as the White Stripes' drummer, but their vocalist: her voice brings a stark, unaffected quality at odds with her brother's deliberately mannered vocal approach to a song that deals in muted guitars and hushed snatches of keyboard."
"Jack White is famously a man with a bit of a temper, which boils underneath Truth Doesn't Make a Noise: The way you treat her fills me with rage and I want to tear apart the place."
"Somewhere under the guitar heroics, the costumes and the myth-building tall tales, Jack White had a keen pop sensibility. It was never more obvious than on the ultra-catchy My Doorbell, a song you could easily have imagined Paul McCartney rocking up to a late 60s Beatles session bearing."
