Lenny Kravitz, wow, period! First thing that turned my on to him is the fact he is a black guitarist. The second thing was how raspy and gritty his voice is. The last thing that turned me on the this guy was the fact that he's fucking gorgeous! Like have you ever seen him, dude beautiful.
But the song I initial fell in love with was "Are you gonna go my way?". Hell yeah dude! The beginning riff, good grief, orgasmic it really is. I don't remember the chords but it was awesome! That song is so bad ass it literally says here's my song like it fine, hate it fuck you (the song itself doesn't say that I'm just saying).
Kravitz also has a soft side, "I'll be Waiting" is one of those songs that makes you sway and you can really relate to it. "As long as I'm breathing, I'll be waiting. As long as I'm living I'll be there. Whenever you need me I'll be there." Beautiful lyrics I'm telling you. Lenny Kravitz is one of my favorite guitarist and he is amazing.
I love Fiona Apple and her music so much I categorize it as a lesbian love affair. Her lyrics are like my thoughts in song and rhythmic form. "Paper bag" is one of my all time favorites: "I've got to fold because these hands are too shaky to hold" or "I'm a mess he don't wanna clean up" come one that has Fiona Apple written all over it!
But the song I truly fell in love with was "Criminal". Good grief, that girl can blow! She has serious pipes and the lyrics again: "And I need to be redeemed to the one I've sinned against" and "Help me but don't tell me to deny it." In my opinion she created her own genre.
She is also a bad ass like she released an album in '95, the title of the album was like 23 letters long. Seriously she is an icon and she is so twisted; crazy. "Fast As You Can" the craziest song I've heard from her. "Sleep to Dream" is a classical "You say love is a hell you can not bear/ And say gimme mine back and go there/ For all I care." I love it, she is such a creep and she is so broken. We can all relate to her in some way because she is such a crazy and says thing that most people wouldn't. She was the bad ass of the 90's I hope she is still making music because she is amazing.
