Music videos

There are two music videos for "Steady, As She Goes." The first one, directed by Jim Jarmusch, features the Raconteurs playing the song in an attic, with cows and a farm-like scene surrounding the attic. The second video, directed by The Malloys, feature the Raconteurs competing in a soap-box race, with Paul Reubens - best known for his Pee-Wee Herman character - cheating several times to ensure a win for his racer, Jack Lawrence. Patrick Keeler's car accidentally falls off a cliff. Paul spills oil on the track which makes Brendan's car slip. Brendan is rushed to the hospital. And finally, Paul shoots Jack White with a blow dart. Lawrence wins.
