[mrfrag64]

[oliaolina]

[sevadaj]

Nice song Lenny, I will always remember your Mom on the Jeffersons. R.I.P. Roxie Roker.

[ItalianBrianA]

Absolutely Beautiful. Been a Roxi Fan for over 30 some years....NEVER knew Lenny Kravitz was her son. JUST found out tonight. OMG! THE EPISODE Lenny has on of the JEFFERSONS... WE JUST WATCHED!!! We are watching the one where EVERYONE is co-signing a loan for Lionel NOW! HUGE FAN of BOTH Mother and Son now.

[lalorovip]

Woo magic song

[robdgp]

7 people don´t have soul...Rest in peace Roxie Roker...Lenny you´re a Great Man.

[hasbrouckpark]

Lenny...I have some of the lyrics to this song in my phone. I look at them whenever I think of my mom. 8/2009. When I saw this video, I cried. The words to this song are comforting to me. Its strange. You can go to church all your life. They can sing songs that ring true in regards to losing your loved one. But God is awesome in that He knows the exact words and music that will be a comfort to us. Love you for this song. Thank you. Hope to meet you one day to tell you in person.

[VaniaSantacatarina]

[wastemytime77]

my son showed me the original video u did of this song--years ago--and i tear up each time i see it cause we are very close and he's a musician also and alot of other things in common---

[nicefellow31]

I have to say this is one of my favorite songs ever. I still have both my parents but it summarizes how I feel about both of them, but especially my Mom.

[MrMacon5]

This goes out to the tone dog today,my very good friend who had to say good bye to his mother today.love you bro!

[speechlessforMJ]

Moving...beautiful...thinking of my mom...thanks Lenny.

[Cheenjoo]

Wow. Done with class...just like your Mom.

[annieewing13]

Thank you, it made me think. And in turn I asked my Dad what he wanted me to be. He said a person that knew and believed all people are equal. And it's what I have passed to my children. My life is a important as the person next to me.

[Ieneko8990]

SO SO beautiful Lenny

[susie96mjfan]

This is beautiful. The amount of emotion you put in the song is so pure... I felt it. It really touched my heart :)

[senseidallyo75]

This was one of the most amazing songs and videos Ive ever watched. Inspiring and to know in the afterlife that we reunite with our most loved ones:) God Bless you Lenny Kravitz..

[Shawnee76]

Thinkin' of my Dad.

[718YoungB]

This is The "5" album. 1998.... you 21 year olds like me now what i'm talking about; We had CD players... I was eight at the time and I swiped it from my moms collection... I memorized all the words from that whole album... At eight.... Lenny is the man, if you guys don't really too much about more of his music.... PLEASE I URGE YOU GO EXPLORE YOU WONT GO WRONG!!!!!!!

[oromo99]

Oh so beautiful! You said it all man!

[1stlovemusic]

Love is ALL. We keep it, we hold on to it, even after all these years. Gone but never forgotten.

[keleic]

it still gets to me that he lost both his parents. especially since he doesnt have any siblings

[keleic]

i hope he does something like this again next month for his beloved mother

[LucifersArgument]

This guy is a genius. He plays all his instruments and writes all his songs and is blessed with a creative soul and happens to be sexy. Puts all mainstream artists to shame. And he is so honest about his feelings too.

[lisanalani]

MAN!! I love to hear Lenny sing this song....I play it often and I cry although my Mama is still alive and battling cancer, this song reaches out to those who love and cherish "Mamas"....I'm a Singer and I do plan on singing this song. THANK YOU LENNY KRAVITZ...."tell me Mama...would you live your life the same...or come back and rearrange"....AWESOME!!

[PrincessShittyBottom]

Rest In Peace, Roxie Roker.

[dilequesecallee]

[PrincessShittyBottom]

That was Beautiful.....

[EarlGenius]

[Nadishga]

what tunning is he using??.. really weird..

[krissybug]

This gets me every time.

[xVOODOOCHILEx2]

Beautiful Tribute.:) you are the best!!!

[NeoDio27]

I remember listening to the album 5 for months when it came out back in 98,this is one of his best songs,not just from that album,but from his whole career.Anyone can find similarities in this song,either it's from a mother,a father,a brother,a wife/husband or a friend that have departed.It's just amazing to know that Lenny still has his touch after so many years.I have a burst of emotions while hearing this version,I tried,but there are no words to describe it.Thanks Lenny!

[2011nafissa]

im thinking of u and all the things that u wonted me to be.......and im tryin know.

[2011nafissa]

[jasvinder1974]

[acquiredtaste79]

I've always loved this song since the first time I heard it. Its very emotional

[JesusBxd]

Genial !

Puro sentimiento hermano Lenny. Bendiciones...

[BeforeTheMusicDies]

[quadzilla05]

I lost my Mother on April 19th. This song is really hitting home.. Thanks Lenny for such a beautiful song. R.I.P. Mom

[will30078]

Extraordinarily beautiful

[TheKiku]

Such a strong song. We played this song at my mother's funeral years ago and everytime I hear it I still become emotional. I've been a fan of Lenny's from the beginning. His talent, vibe and soul - absolutely amazing.

[sexymarshmellowbunny]

OMG!!! I cried throughout the entire video!! This is beautiful!!

[laundrynotes]

This is beautiful. It brings tears to my eyes and makes me think and reflect. It's obvious how much you cherish your mom. I also love the deep contemplation this song has as you ponder what heaven is like and think about your own growth and journey to do the best to be pleasing in His sight and keep your mama's promise. You are fascinating and remarkable.

[GodAlways1]

I try not to cry when I see this & the original, but it's so touching. It's such a blessing for a son to love his momma so very much.Lenny truly pours his heart out in his ode to his mom. The pics in the original...The way Lenny rubs his hand over her pic while he's lying on the floor...The pic of a grown Lenny laying on his Momma's lap...too touching for words. His emotion... May God continue to bless u Lenny. May the sweet memories of your mom ALWAYS bring u love&comfort.

[ngadiadiangadios]

[cbascue]

Thanks Lenny, I lost my mom and dad in a moment when I was young. I love this song because it is something I could sing If I could. Thanks for sharing!

[cjs33139]

Lenny, I loved your mother on The Jeffersons and she and Marla were the main reason I used to watch the show as a kid. I am 42 now and still watch it on Youtube and on TV when I get a chance. The show and your mother, bring back so many memories to me of my childhood full of laughter and joy when watching the show. Roxie was/is so gorgeous. RIP Roxie.

[BRYANJAMESsable]

Lenny puts on a show seen him a few years ago at verizon indpls, was great.

[FRInTheHouse]

Thank you Lenny... What a great song, paying tribute to your mother.. I too lost my mother 7 years ago, I can feel you brother.. Much respect

[marcusflair68]

Awesome man!

[MrZoka79]

surii ;)

[girraud]

I hope this isn't presumptuous, but my mom favored Roxie Roker a lot. My mom passed in 1983 when I was 17. When I heard this song written for Lenny's mom I remember crying and letting go of more of that pain. I want to thank Lenny for this song because I think of my mom a lot and I'm still trying, even now.

[croland0071]

I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!!!...anyone who has lost there mother feels this...made a grown man cry...thats deep

[Lovecrazzy84]

Thank you sooo much for posting this!

[TheAlegria49]

Lenny you are one talented and sexy man! Love, Love this particular song it's absolutely beautiful and touches my heart and soul. I lost my mom many years ago and everytime I hear your tune it makes me think of my mom. Very special to me & of course to you : ) keep making beautiful music it's what your mother would have wanted you to do.

[evangelinem767]

@duchessvonpopypantz those was the 5 people that never experience unconditional love from their mother. That is why they have nothing good to say.

@borislogronotilos

HOW HOMOSEXUALITY COULD POSSIBLY HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH BAD MUSIC TASTE, YOU RIDICULOUS NAZZI?

KNOW, man, that I rather have gay parents than a relative stupid as you show to be.

thumbs up if you understand that the world needs less prejudiced

people like mR Borislogronotilos. and Do the world a favor, mr Boris. Please, turn around and drop dead. Thank you.

[dieelsners]

Lenny, your Mama has eyes like Diana Ross... she's beautiul !!!

R.i.P. Roxy Roker

[Sofiandier]

lenny you are such an incredible singer and author, I dont say person because I dont know you, hope in my mind you´ll be jajajaj. I love your music since like ten years, because I am really young, and I think that this song and the one you made for your daughter are amusing!! they really touch my heart. I love your rock stile also but the cool thing is all your diferent music styles or faces.thats so cool, not just to be in one of them, but to be able to change things a little, and grow, genious

[canufeelit]

[kimberly0930]

Lenny, I met you in New Orleans after your performance at JazzFest in 2002 when you were driving out the gate in a black SUV.You stopped and we spoke briefly as your band mate was videoing from the back seat.I told you how your music had helped me. February 2010, i tragically & unexpectedly lost my mama. Once again your music is helping to heal my heart & soul.I'm struggling through life without my mama and my best friend but I will make it.I just want to tell you with all my heart, Thank You!
