Interesting facts and trivia about It Ain't Over 'Til It's Over. By Songfacts®.

Kravitz wrote this about the actress Lisa Bonet. They got married in 1987 and had a daughter, Zoe, a year later. But in 1991, their marriage was on the rocks, and Kravitz wrote "It Ain't Over 'Til It's Over" hoping to reconcile their relationship. They ended up getting divorced in 1993, but later settled in as good friends.

This was the first big hit for Kravitz. He had a minor hit in 1989 with his first single, "Let Love Rule," off the LP of the same name.

The song was heavily inspired by the Motown sound and by Earth, Wind & Fire. The horn section at the end is played by the brass section of Earth, Wind & Fire.
