American Woman
Both are good songs but I tend to prefer the Kravitz version. The intended distortion at the end gets a little annoying, but it still rocks more than the original.

Comments about American Woman:
I like Lenny but this song looks like hip-hop. Guess Who rocks! I say A, I say M, I say E, I say R, I say I, I say C, I say A, I say N, Huh! American Woman! Stay away from me...

Folks who enjoy this song should look for a new version performed by Bachman Cummings (originally fromthe Guess Who) titled American Woman 2006. VERY good remake, more bluesy and rhythemic and nicely updated.

What is up with the god-awful distortion at the end?
Who is the engineer and producer that let that horrible mess pass?

Almost as bad as Madonna's cover of "American Pie." Almost. Lenny lost any sense of musicality for fashion plate homogeny.

There are sooooo many reasons for Lenny to lose. For one, the context of the song becomes useless... Um, hello? The Guess Who were Canadian?! And despite my attempts to avoid stereotypes, you have to admit Lenny's version is "whiter"...

Gods, Kravitz made this song boring. He usually knows how to present a plodding rocker likes this, but this version is awful.
