"Thinking of You" comes from 5, the Lenny Kravitz album Virgin released in May 1998, and it's close to a one-man show: Kravitz sings lead and backing vocals and plays bass, drums, electric piano and guitar, with Craig Ross adding guitar and percussion. Kravitz wrote the words and shares the music credit with Lysa Aya Trenier, and Terry Manning engineered and mixed it.

5 changed the method for a man with a retro reputation. Recording began in October 1997 in his New York carriage house studio and moved on to Manning's Compass Point Studios in the Bahamas, and it was his first album made in Pro Tools, never going to tape at all. The '70s funk and soul stayed in the mix with the rock, but now synthesizers and tape loops gave it a more modern sheen.
