Lenny Kravitz Are You Gonna Go My Way Reaction

Love this! It’s funky as hell and I love the drummer! That’s Cindy Blackman who’s now married to Carlo Santana.

My godmother was best friends with Roxie and Marla Gibbs in her early years, and my parents in her later years, so she was also his godmother.

[@troystelly9831]

First real solo black rocker. Lenny could jam. Also has some soulful songs like “It Ain’t Over ‘til It’s Over “

[@thehawkpodcast4295]

When Lenny was starting in music, his mother, Roxy Roker, told him he was going to college. Lenny asked for his college money to make an album. Roxy said "If you want to record a song, it better be about JESUS! If I like it, I'll give you the money." He wrote, and played her THIS song, and she gave him the money. This was Lenny's song about Jesus, he wrote for his mother. Listen to the song again, and picture Jesus speaking the lyrics. Lenny Kravitz told this story on a talk show, before he played it.

[@gaelicwarrior5064]

My all-time favorite Lenny song. The drum work was the first thing that made me take notice - the energy, the ferocity. You would think the drums owe her money after witnessing the savage beating she gives them.

Kravitz is an accomplished guitar player He’s an “ Old Soul” musically.

That’s how my kids were introduced to the greats and till this day hearing those songs brings up great memories for them

How can anyone not love this song? This came out when I was in my 20's. Loved the video too. Great reaction. Much love from California.

[@garylindsey5174]

I remember Lenny Kravitz was playing at a club where we often went to see bands,but we hadn't heard of him,at the time he didn't have anything on the radio. Regrettably we didn't go. About a week later they released "Are You Gonna Go My Way" and we were like ,"m****rfr I can't believe we missed that". Definitely one of my biggest rockin roll regrets.

[@kathycrutcher2671]

Man I love Lenny!! His version of American Woman is awesome.although it ain’t over til it’s over is my favorite.

[@andyoreo333]

Am I the only one who has been in love with that drummer for 25 years.just askin 4 a friend.

[@AW-yj6md]

It also has a 60's psychedelic feel, people are wearing "bellbottoms", afros, what we use to call "clogs", the wedge shoes, bolero-like vests with beads, headbands kinda beaded, very, very reminiscent of the 1960's hippies and flower children. That part where Lenny was playing off bassist, reminded me of when Jimi Hendrix was playing with his bassist Noel, was a cool scene, and the girl on drums was killing it. Check out the other rockin one he does, Fly Away, its tremendously thunderous. And "I belong to you", so elegantly beautiful. Enjoy, Peace✌

[@MetalMonkey]

I like it because it's very catchy and he was probably the first black person I saw in rock at the time and he has a black female drummer which is very unusual

[@matthewortado4943]

I remember riding around with my friends in the summer of 1993 blasting this song.

Those backup musicians look really has that 70's and feel.

I'm really enjoying your channel --- you're bringing back a lot of good memories for me with your very diversified playlist.

[@pilargonzalez8442]

Besides Lenny being a force of nature, just by him playing and moving like that, in a gorgeous red King outfit, as with many of his songs, there is always a particular part that sticks with me as a label, whenever I want to pull that song out of my mind and vibe with it, that guitar hook at the beginning...maaaaannnnnn...it's like Jimmi's Voodoo Child intro, forever locked inside my heart & soul!! It just represents the Love & Peace vibe for real :-))))

[@pamelascott5702]

When I think of Lenny Kravitz I think of great rocking times. I love so many of his songs but u should give “It Ain’t Over TIL it’s Over” a review. It was the first song I heard of his & I absolutely fell in love with his music. It has more of a mellow tone to it.

[@leeann3920]

I think we all liked/loved it for the same reason you liked it: It's fun, catchy, and still sounds great!

[@Spartyfan87]

I saw Lenny Kravitz open for the Stones in 1994. He rocked this song way the heck out! The Stones were good but LENNY ruled.

[@continentalaquatics2725]

I love the song because as I was learning how to play the song on the guitar, I kicked on my Boss Phaser pedal and happened to nail the riff change in the bridge on my first try. The song was new then and I was in the 8th grade. It was a pretty cool moment for me.

[@sheilacarroll7143]

This is actually a Christian song, 'are you going to go my way' is supposed to mean, are you going to follow Jesus. "I was born long ago I am the chosen I'm the one I have come to save the day And I won't leave until I'm done"

[@suziewong2181]

I never knew that. I knew that his father was Jewish so I wasn't sure if he was raised as Jewish or Christian or? I can't say that I absolutely love this song!🤗

I've compiled a list of every possible "rating" you give to every song you listen to. Here it is: 1. Fun song. Sounds like barbecue. 2. Fun song. Sounds like Christmas. 3. I know I've heard it in a movie somewhere. 4. I know I've heard it in a movie, but I've only heard the chorus before. 5. I like it when people play live. 6. This is going on my playlist. 7. Sounds like something my mother would play around the house. 8. Sounds like 4th of July (a new one). 9. Thanks to whoever suggested this to me (opinion withheld). 10. I respect your taste, but this is not my thing.

You could try something from his first album, Let Love Rule. He was going full Flower Power Hippy on that one. I used to get into trouble with my mom when I'd listen to "I Built This Garden For Us" (which you can tell would be a wholesome song). She thought he was singing "I Built This G*DD*MN Forest." I'm like, Mom, why would he be singing that? Who builds a forest?
