Liquid Jesus
First time I heard this song I thought Lenny was saying "Live for Jesus", I mean that makes sense right? I love the Limited Edition dvd of Black and White America of him recording this song. His lips so close to the mic and hands in his pockets. I find this song a little confusing as he is singing about being lovers and giving what is your fantasy, but also singing about Jesus. Idk? He always seems to be torn between love/lust and how he feels about God. He has stated that sex outside of marriage is wrong and was (in the past) not having sex until he married. i think he regrets having said that. I love his voice in this song, and the song is so catchy.

I did / do not get the song. When I bought the CD, I was dissapointed that there were/ are unreadable lyrics. Being sour, I throw away the whole stuff. Later I´ve listened to the song, but thought it was a love song for Jesus. Now I wonder about another sense. It really seems that he has been in love at that time when he wrote the song. Humm ?!?

When I first heard "Liquid Jesus," it confused me. And this confusion made me "jump" to the conclusion it wasn't a good song. It wasn't till I opened my mind and heart (without judgement and/or preconceived ideas) that I than concluded my first impression of "Liquid Jesus," was wrong.
Lenny Kravitz's style and vibe are amazing!!
The aesthetic quality of his heart really shines through in this musical/lyrical masterpiece. And, I see God in his creativity. God encompasses the creative mind in the same way God encompasses the universal painting, known as the creative earth. The miracle of life itself, is a good example of this concept known as the creative earth.
Making love and the word "lover" symbolizes much more than the act of sex. The theme of uniformity and unity is obvious, as it is a necessary component according to the mystery of our universe.
The soul is understood as the mirror of God just as our creative mind is the mirror of our individual soul.
I do not see Lenny in conflict and/or confused with love/lust/faith. I am grateful for his life.

I also like this tune, and its interpretation is in the ears and mind of the beholder-each and every one of us has their own thoughts of the meaning of this lovely, sexy, smooth, crooner-type tune. As a Christian woman myself I have dual interpretations of it.

Ha Yes, at first listen the song sounds a bit too sensuous to have a reference to God. Lenny said that this is a love song and that "Liquid Jesus" is a metaphor for the love he needs from the girl to cleanse and save him from his past issues and baggage so that he can be truely free to love. Her love can purify him like "liquid" Jesus purifies and renews us. I LOVE the tone of his voice in this song. :)

I also heard he finished the song in the city of Paris after being "in the bush". Perhaps he wrote it in the Bahamas and finished recording it in Paris. It means to me a world of Lenny and who he loves, more like the love is washing over both him and his lover? Does that make any sense? As usual he is very sensual about what he would do, the thought of him in a bathtub comes to mind (yes, I am bad!)
