A video to Cree Summer's song "Mean Sleep," featuring Lenny Kravitz, and FMV's from Final Fantasy Eight.


Made on Ulead Video Studio - one of the worst pieces of video editing software on the planet (but at least it's not Windows Movie Maker!).

  • Van Hunt just did a cover of this song with Nikki Costa

  • He didn't "just" do it, the cover's been around for a while...but I prefer the original version. :)

  • When you're missing someone & you have haunting dreams about them. You don't sleep well so it wasn't a kind/good sleep, it was a a mean sleep."It hurts coming back to life", it hurts to wake up & feel it fresh all over again. Your mind is your worst enemy when you're getting over someone."I'm folding into myself, who will find me under this mean sleep?", who can rescue you from your pain while your under such mental duress.

  • This is one of thee most kick ass songs ever. Too bad The Work Group never promoted it back in 1999. It would have been a big hit. This song is sexy and the guitar part is fucking badass!!!!

  • some Van Hunt fans need to shut the fuck up and quit whining. They both wrote the song. Both got the credit they deserve. Now shut your pie holes and go to Van Hunt's version if you like it so much.

  • @tashabot Van Hunt wrote the song ... so technically he was covering himself.

  • Van Hunt co-wrote this song with Cree Summer and Lenny Kravitz produced it...So Van Hunt sang his own song :) and to be honest I like Van Hunt's version more...

  • @mzblessed1 I agree. I thought I liked Van Hunt's version also, but I'm feelin' this one

  • cree summers is the voice of every black cartoon from my generation. she also was the original singer for the theme song from as told by ginger which she voiced miranda.

  • @lovelystars07 Actually, Van Hunt wrote this for Cree's album. She just recorded it first.

  • @lovelystars07 Actually,, folks, Van Hunt wrote this. He covered his own song. Cree just recorded it first.

  • The mean sleep holds the tracks of my tears you gave me this crooked smile now you want me to pretend, pretend i won't you ought to know better!You can't hypnotize me with your split tongue. Aren't the false teeth you gave me enough, and your emotional, roller coaster. I had a mean sleep filled with arthritis and goveernment injections to change my blood and bring curses. The curse is on you though its just dressed up in a rotted garment.Molded by false memory syndrome.MEAN SLEEP but its okay!!!

  • you gave me a mean sleep now you want me to come back from the dead like a zombie!! "mean sleep over you" now hurts coming back to life your gonna hate me!!smile!!First i will shut down my split personality you gave me. I had a mean sleep! I won't curse on this one its to awesome!I'm am clearing cobwebs and pushing ome.I don't need no other light.bittersweet, folding in and out. I'd still LOVE you back to life. The memory, i have to still that space and compartmentalize, the mean sleep !

  • I ABSOLUTELY LOOOOOOOVE THIS SONG!! Thought I liked it when I heard the Van Hunt/Nikki Costa version but this is it right here!!!!!
