Lenny Kravitz "American Woman"

[7EMERSON9]

Can't stand this song. Had to hear it ten or twelve times a day at work back when it came out. Gotta get awaaaayyy!!! Wish that s.o.b. half-a-fag tool would do just that but it hasn't happened yet.

[MrBLARSON]

Lenny.....You are so good looking..mmmmmmmmm

[Ificationer]

American woman,they're fatter than mee-eee...

:P

[wheelmanstan]

When Lenny decided to cover The Guess Who’s “American Woman” in 1999, no one could have known that he was about to butcher a true rock classic. The solo almost had potential, but it seems Mr. Kravitz was too busy working on his hairstyle instead of trying to play the freakin’ guitar. I hate how Lenny tries to make his guitar playing sound technical by using some fancy production tricks. This song is a perfect example of why Lenny Kravitz blows.

[AdmiralComi]

Yeah, the song is pretty god. But I just watch the video and enjoy in the beauty of Heather Graham.

[amber0planet]

That guitar solo was really bad. I can't believe he got away with it.

[milano921]

when dd he make this song?

[amber0planet]

@milano921

He didn't, it was written by someone respectable.

[anko8aug]

canadian woman stay away from me canadian mama let me be!

[metalliczombie]

Oh hey look it's Jimi Hendrix!!! Oh wait, never mind. I mistook this guy for a guitar god. 

[InsanityPure]

@metalliczombie *confused* he is a guitar god t00.

[metalliczombie]

@InsanityPure Lol. Not in a million years.

[yeahmon66]

Listen to Lenny's & The Who's verison of American Woman. Lenny & the lead singer of the Who in that song sound alike. I'm serious. If you don't believe me, give me a thumbs down. If you do, give me a thumbs up.

[RicoLen1]

OK so don't flame but I haven't listened to Kravitz in a while, and what are some of his badass new rock songs? I haven't heard any hard rock from him since American Woman/Fly Away and before that Are you gonna go my way.

Dying for some new good riffs from Kravitz.

[SkyJamMusicVideos]

One of the most versatile musicians out there

[locorayner]

Them chicks riding choppers, ooooo weeee! So flyin' hot!

[amishmime]

[xgoldlion07x]

[indigo314]

They wrote this song during Woodstock actually. :) Guess who turned down the invitation and worked on this album.

[edwinsandovala]

Is it just me or do MAXWELL and LENNY look a like....and are both very talented....

[rockkx666]

i like how he says "more important" faster than in the original version. it makes the line flow smoother.

[emightis]

I'm torn to be honest. I lean more towards the original, but Kravitz did good.

[takepillsat3]

[simpLymeatball]

kinda reminds me of hendrix

[Wrathchild294]

[thegei]

"Heather Graham is old, but she has some phe-nomenal breasts!" Jim Rom - 10/24/08

[gearon000]

AWESOME SONG!!!! every time I hear it I think of Austin Powers! lol

[kennygross311]

reminds me of being like 12 playing goldeneye on nintendo 64

[JHsoxfan11]

this song was on goldeneye?

[kennygross311]

no, but at the time that this song came out, i was playing goldeneye all the time with my neighbor, so it reminds me of that lol

[mbg680]

LUv this song

[TheManAbove]

Man, hearing this makes me miss the late 1990s. One of the best covers I have ever heard. Usually, covers don't go as good as the original, but this is one of the main exceptions.

[MikeRulez69]

and thats the chick from austin powers

[Tiamatnico]

American Woman is a total love song to us. He can't leave us and he knows it. Watch it again. It has always been a tribute to us. We rock.

[rayma1986]

His so cute!!!!!

[goddarddrumrEB]

you guys do know that The Guess Who was Canadian right

So it's not anti American

they must not have liked American women

[totalSNIPER]

since when did video comments become a way to hate on other people? just love on the video or dont say anything

[SpartanB294]

Gmon, whatch what you say about the country holding the best damn military in the world.

[LoGiCseNsE34]

love lenny kravits. i grew up on him. this song is amazing! great simple and awesome guitar rythm!

[gmon4j]

Hellz ya Fuck america! This song is bad ass, even if he did cover this song, He made it better!

[krauserowns94]

hard to believe that this song is a cover by i think the band'guess who'

[ramby6574]

this song is pretty hardcore awesome

[xoxodoggie30]

american(white) bitchesssss!!!! stay away from mee!!!

[Debauchery78]

..awesome song

I also love that people who aren't American, (well by the way their comment sounds) are the only people who care that it's anti-American...

[1987BESTYEAR]

Mmmmm I love this song :-P This rocks my socks (giggles)

Thanks for posting!

[punkrockhipichic]

This Rocks, I like the Lenny Kravitz version,

better than the Guess Who, or Jim Morrison

[SoxFan5612]

does anyone know where those mirrored glasses can be found? they are amazing!!!

[totalSNIPER]

i think those glasses are custom made for him and there prolly pretty expensive

[whiterock12345]

you can probably get them from fucking walmart

[luxxie55]

i like this verson of american women i do not know what all the fuss is about im from the south and i love america but come on it is just a darn good song and lenny just puts his stuff on it it rocks luxxie

[te3kken5]

lol good 1

[loonycushion]

maybe it should be called fat woman..:)))

[queenievicky121]

LOL not i sad but true

[MasterKyleson]

Do you Americans not get it?

Do you not realise that this is probably the most anti-American song on the planet?

It's not ironic, it's retarded.

[everybodyforgets]

then why is it called american woman for? can you tell me that?

[MasterKyleson]

+42 fail points, go listen to the lyrics.

[kissnqueen123]

only good music to ever come out of canada.

[chrsvor25]

what about rush?

[codi79]

What about the Tragically Hip?

[MasterKyleson]

What about Steppenwolf, The Tea Party, Our Lady Peace, and Theory of a Deadman?

[glynnth]

Lenny gives a whole new meaning to it...

[Angyparadisebeauty]

c 'est ma chanson....jadore

[valiantknight69]

Lenny Kravitz re-lives rhythm in rock n roll left by Jimmy Hendrix.

[rtHIM666]

dam good cover its hard to say but its better than the guess whos original version.  Sistamammalover rules

[ChrisGalora]

wow he's either gay or racist! :O

[deirdrec1]

Ever heard of Irony?? LOL!!

[kylewebbgmail]

heather graham was riding that bus

[kissobsessed]

Lenny is soooo fine and his voice is so sexy in this song!!

[puncusu]

oh yeahhhh this video its sexxxxy and lenny its gorgeusss i love this video

[longbranch1]

i love how americans NEVER understand the meaning of this song. come on people! think about it. listen to the words. "i don't need your war machines, i don't need you ghetto scenes." it's staring at you in the face!

[heyymickey]

i love how you're an idiot. i understand the meaning. you know that "yankee doodle" was also intended as an insult, right? maybe people just don't give a shit. what did you want us to do? ban the song? stfu.

[longbranch1]

oi, yankee, i'm canadian. so it works in my favour, jackass. for many people this song is still an anthem of freedom and independence from the historical differences which have defined our two great nations. during the american revolution and the war of 1812 "Our brave fathers, side by side; For freedom, homes, and loved ones dear; Firmly stood and nobly died; And those dear rights which they maintained; We swear to yield them never! / Our watchword evermore shall be; The Maple Leaf forever!"

[daveco82]

wipe your ass with your maple leaf!!!

[queenievicky121]

First im american and take my word for it when you tell them stuff like that thier brain locks down and well they cant figure it out LOL

[yeahokbyrne]

thats healthy

[professorgentzel]

Heather Graham at 3:36

[bacara50]

awesome cover of the guess who's classic

that chick is hot

[46Poli46]

that chick is Heather Graham...god dammit she's hot

[friduu]

Este destul de excentric si ok

[AceHK04]

00:50 WTF? She needs a new bra!

[ransisua]

The Guess Who cover. Lenny Kravitz's nice arrangement.

I think if David Cook sing it with this arrangement, it will be hotter.

LoL...Just an opinion

[Rayon13]

Awesome song. End of story.

[hotmle123]

If she asked nice enough, I might let Heather Graham have sex with me...

[Sephiroth365]

rock is NOT dead

[WrathsChild73]

damn ... that heather graham is freekin hotter than hell.

[RDWLM]

[Tbannu]

One of the women was in Austin Powers - The Spy who Shagged Me, and in the back someone was playing this song. :O

[dapagaz]
