"Circus" is a song co-written and performed by American singer Lenny Kravitz and released on December 11, 1995 by Virgin Records, as the second single from his fourth studio album, Circus (1995). There were produced two music videos for the song: one directed by Ruven Afanador[3][4] and the other by Martyn Atkins.[5] Kravitz explained to Billboard, "it gets more like a circus with all this suff—management people, fans, bankers, investment people. It's like, My God! What happened? It gets harder to be yourself."[6]
