Released 9 Years Ago: Avicii vs Lenny Kravitz – Superlove

Lenny Kravitz is an iconic name within the dance music scene, delivering smash hits such as ‘Are You Gonna Go My Way’, ‘Fly Away’, and ‘It Aint Over Till It’s Over’. Rewind back to 2012 and just after delivering hits such as ‘Levels’ and ‘Fade Into Darkness’, Avicii was invited to work alongside Lenny Kravitz to bring ‘Superlove’ into the dance world. Released on the 29th of May, 2012, and delivering in an epic way, Avicii took the down-tempo pop single and turned it into an uptempo melodic masterpiece that many call an underrated gem from the Swede.

When you’re one of the most recognizable DJs and producers in the world; when you’ve sold millions of records, had billions of downloads and 11 billion streams, bested the globe’s biggest stages, and worked your way from upstart to celebrated icon, your life looks like a blockbuster movie – from the outside.

On the inside, Tim Bergling, aka Avicii, who is naturally shy, struggled with life on the road. Even as international chart-toppers ‘Levels’ and ‘Wake Me Up’  catapulted him to brighter stardom, he became an ever more elusive character of dance music myth. The unfortunate news of his death on the 20th of April 2018 sent shockwaves through the entire music industry and we are still feeling the effects to this day.
