Background
"Blue Orchid" is the first track by the American alternative rock band the White Stripes from their album Get Behind Me Satan (2005), and the first single to be released from the album. The song was released six weeks after it was written. Although it was suspected that Jack White wrote the song about his breakup with Renée Zellweger, he has denied this claim. Lyrically, "Blue Orchid" is about White's longing for classical entertainment industries and the turmoil that the newer industries sent him through.
