t seems like time stands still, but it’s been twenty-five years since the then young and promising musician, singer, actor, multi-instrumentalist, and producer Lenny Kravitz debuted his album “Let Love Rule,” surprising the world and the recording industry with the personality of his approach. That album marked his first visit to the top of the charts, a place he has rarely left and which has allowed him to sell more than 40 million records worldwide. That’s incredible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once he overcame his youthful obsession with being the next Prince, Lenny realized he could be someone on his own. A good musician, handsome, stylish, with a flair for navigating the intricate world of celebrity, and a certain knack for finding girlfriends on his artistic level, such as actress Lisa Bonet, singer Vanessa Paradis, or model Adriana Lima, these are more than enough virtues to secure him a good place in the music press. Now, at 50, he maintains his figure and his image. It wouldn’t be strange if he had a painting in his house, with a portrait of himself, that no one can see and that grows older and older every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The fact is that on September 23rd, Lenny Kravitz will release his tenth studio album. This new work will be called “Strut”<\/em> and will be the first LP he releases on his own label, Roxie Records. The singer has described it as an authentic rock and roll album, raw and soulful, that came about very naturally and quickly. As usual, Lenny plays guitar, bass, keyboards, drums, and percussion and acts as producer, although he has also enlisted the help of maestro Bob Clearmountain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The first single is this song, “The Chamber<\/em> ,” whose music video was directed by Anthony Mandler, a name we’ve previously seen in clips for Lana Del Rey, Jennifer Lopez, Nuse, Taylor Swift, Justin Bieber, and Cheryl. In other words, money, luxury, and blockbusters are not lacking. To give the image a more cinematic treatment, Mandler enlisted the help of Parisian music video specialists Quad, and he went there, to the City of Light, to film it. A story somewhere between film noir and morbidity, on the border where sex, desire, and pleasure meet danger, risk, and death. The role of this femme fatale, brimming with sensuality and eroticism, is played by Dutch model Rianne Ten Haken. The song isn’t bad at all, but it’s nothing new either. In its vein, it’s very recognizable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cA real man desires two things: danger and play. That’s why he desires a woman, the most dangerous of games,\u201d Friedrich Nietzsche.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You killed the love that was once so strong<\/em> You looked through me like an open door<\/em> I gave you all the love I had<\/em> You played your game, used me like a pawn<\/em> Now that you’re through I can feel your soul<\/em> I gave you all the love I had<\/em> I gave you all the love I had<\/em> So many nights<\/em> I gave you all the love I had<\/em> Posted from: https:\/\/loff.it\/the-music\/chamber-lenny-kravitz-160363\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
With no regrets to what you did wrong<\/em>
Should I stay and fight?<\/em>
Can we make this right?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Do I exist to you anymore?<\/em>
Cause when I’m talking to you<\/em>
There’s someone else that you’re hearing<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
And I almost gave you one more chance<\/em>
Then you put one in the chamber<\/em>
And shot my heart of glass<\/em>
This time will be the last<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Check mate you’re done and then you were gone<\/em>
Did I move too fast?<\/em>
I thought we would last<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Where there was love lies an empty hole<\/em>
Cause when I make love to you<\/em>
It’s someone else that you’re feeling<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
And I almost gave you one more chance<\/em>
Then you put one in the chamber<\/em>
And shot my heart of glass<\/em>
This time will be the last<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
And I almost gave you one more chance<\/em>
Then you put one in the chamber<\/em>
And shot my heart of glass<\/em>
This time will be the last<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’ve been standing at the wall<\/em>
Blind folded with cigarette<\/em>
Waiting for the fall<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
And I almost gave you one more chance<\/em>
Then you put one in the chamber<\/em>
And shot my heart of glass<\/em>
This time will be the last<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
