Lenny Kravitz - Johnny Cash (Studio Version)

[@michaelj.r457]

This song is based on a true story. Lenny was staying with Rick Rubin at his Hollywood home to work on a project at the same time Johnny was in town recording Unchained with Rubin. Johnny and June Carter were there at Rubin's house when Lenny got the call that his mom (Roxie Roker) had died. Despite not knowing him, as Lenny recounted, "The two of them just came up to me and surrounded me and held me."

Non sono un particolare fan di Lenny Kravitz, anche se ho ascoltato alcune sue cose molto piacevoli e trovo che lui sia un gran figo e un gran personaggio... Però quando ho sentito per radio questa canzone ho capito subito che non era semplicemente una canzone... Ho capito che c'era molto di più... Allora l'ho cercata su KZbin e mentre la stavo ascoltando non sono riuscito a trattenere le lacrime... 😢❤️👍

He was coming back home from the hospital and got the news of her mom's passing. He was staying with/living in the house of some producer. Johnny Cash was recording his last album and staying in the same house. They dumped into each other in the hallway and Johnny asked how he was doing and he told him his mom just passed. June and Johnny grabbed him and consoled him, even though they didn't really know him (just by passing). PS: He told the story in several interviews.

This song is so beautiful and heart rending, a paean to grief and loss and the solace of being held. It never loses hope. From the haunting vulnerability of the vocals, the brilliance of Craig Ross on guitar, through to the strings, the song very slowly surrounds you, wraps itself around you and comforts you. It holds you in your grief when there truly isn’t anyone to hold on to.
