Just like with the late, great Prince, I will never get tired of looking at this smoking hot man. It doesn't hurt that he is a decent human being as well.

Living legend. Met him once. He is as nice as he looks.

Even with the insecurities that he says he has Lenny Kravitz is one of the most self aware people that I’ve ever seen, experienced, or anything. I have been in his presence twice, and there’s just something about his energy that is humbling and comforting. It is a great time to be alive just to witness interviews such as this one.

Happy early birthday! This is a blessing, Mr. Kravitz. I've been there since _Mama Said_ when you laid it all out on the line on _It Ain't Over 'til It's Over._ I cannot listen to that tune w/o my eyes welling up. Nah, I don't know every single song in yo' catalog, however I am definitely a fan. I'll be checkin' for yo' new LP. God bless and continued success.
