I’m just going to say it. The Lenny Kravitz version of American Woman is a hundred times better than the Guess Who version. I know that some people have criticized Kravitz for stripping away the film’s political subtext but I’ve listened to the original song and the politics were dumb.
As for the video, I want Heather Graham’s car. I also like this video because it reminds me of my cousins. The Bowman family reunion in Arkansas is always home to a lot of motorcycles and a lot of American flags.
Enjoy!
