This dude is genre free, a very unique talent, and British not American,
Absolutely.
They need to Forget about labels.. Just enjoy
@@mnb9162 exactly
This right here. I predominantly listen to metal, punk, grunge, D&B, and industrial, but you can bet that I'm screaming these lyrics at the top of my lungs every single time I hear this song. Seal is a legend.
Brad trying to act like this song ain't fire. They don't make em like this no more!
He was born in London. Nigerian mother, Afro Brazilian father. Brought up by foster parents in Westminster, London. Won grammys. Known for his soulful singing voice.
and really, what does that matter? he is a great talent.... beautiful song....
Jennifer Jacobs...it's part of his back story...just interesting fun facts...not that serious.
@@chalmapatterson544 Exactly, I'm shocked 3 other muppets liked her comment. Sheesh. What a world of stupid we all live in
Bang on, Born in st Mary's Hospital Paddington same as me. He lived in the Harrow Road Paddington, Westminster, Three doors up from a very good friend of mine. His first collabaration was with Adamski in which Seal provided lyrics and vocals on Adamski's single "Killer. The rest is history in the making.
@@wanderlustaesthete4117 I didn't read her comment as being negative at all. If that's how you chose to interpret it....fair enough.
I read it as 'the music is beautiful, besides all else'.
I'm British myself but I didn't feel personally slighted by her words at all.
Don't be so quick to assume people are being nasty just cos of the baggage YOU brought to their words.
“How did he get famous” - Lex, he got famous because he has an amazing voice and that’s all there really is to it. This one doesn’t need too much deep thinking, as others have also noted. What’s wild is that this is one of those rare songs for a movie that are probably better remembered than the actual movie.
The soundtrack was fantastic for such a meh movie.
Apart from that amazing voice his also an incredible song writer
And he was married with Heidi Klum (The Sports Illustrated Cover Model) :-)
Like Steely Dan's "FM." Most people forget FM was the title track for a movie. I actually liked Batman Forever. Oh, Kiss From a Rose was previously also on the soundtrack for The Neverending Story III, which I didn't know existed.
@Cathal I remember Nicole Kidman fondly. She looked great ad des an excellent American accent.
Henry Olusegun Adeola Samuel (born 19 February 1963), known professionally as Seal, is a British singer-songwriter. He has sold over 20 million records worldwide,with hit songs "Crazy" and "Killer", the latter of which went to number one in the UK, and his most celebrated song, "Kiss from a Rose", which was released in 1994. Seal is renowned for his distinctive soulful singing voice.
He’s face scars were caused by Lupus❤️🇨🇦
Yeah, that "butterfly" pattern across the nose and on each cheek is often associated with some forms of lupus, though it's such a variable condition that it's hard to say anything universal about it.
Thank you for clarifying the many theories about his origins and scars lol
Thanks! It would be perfectly ok for reactioners to visit wiki before they start.
@@funkyfurballs1078 or once they saw and heard him they could wiki him. Then kind of learn on camera who what where when why
@@funkyfurballs1078 react content is the easiest type of content that takes little to no effort researching the artists before they react to songs would be way too much effort for these type of youtubers
I'm not into all of Seal's stuff but there is no denying the beauty of this song and his voice.
Exactly my feelings on him.
his first album had me. Senior year. Crazy, with its panning effect on headphones blew my mind in early 1991.
What’s crazy is he wrote this song just singing parts into a 4 track tape machine, and didn’t think much of it. It’s a masterpiece.
I'm not sure that the genre really matters too much. Seal is brilliant. Crazy and Killer are must-listens
The scars on Seal's face are from a disease called Discoid Lupus. Lupus is an autoimmune disorder and for lack of a better description, the body attacks itself. Women get the disease more often than men, but when men get it, they get it worse than women do. His scars are pretty much where the "Butterfly Rash" would be and he probably got the scares during a bad flare. But this is from the perspective of a person with Lupus.
I not terribly familiar with Lupus but from what I understand it's kinda opposite of AIDS, meaning that with AIDS you dont have enough white blood cells so you cant fight off infections and things, and with lupus you have to many white blood cells that attack EVERYTHING in your body, is that kinda on the right track????
@@timlenard1646 Yes the immune system of someone with Lupus is attacking organs in the body. Way too many white blood cells. I too have Lupus.
@@timlenard1646 It's a highly varied disease that affects each afflicted person differently. It causes inflammation that can affect pretty much any parts of your body but is usually found in the joints and skin and can also cause chronic fatigue.
And just fyi carnivore helps decrease lupus sxs
It's not lupus! - House M.D.
1994. On the US Main chart, his "Crazy" was also one of his 3 top 10 hits. He had 8 top 10 hits on the US Dance chart.
Rick Beato did a great video digging into all of the intricacies and layers that make this song so great. Including a funny phone call with Seal himself, explaining how he came up with this. Very much worth watching! I always liked this song, but on the production level there's so much more going on than I ever gave it credit for.
That video is amazing. I shared it with my 14 year-old and she simultaneously fell in love with both Rick and Seal.
Rick is the man, bringing amazing insight into the process of music making to the masses.
Yep, Rick did a great job with this one.
Guys, it’s just a love ballad from a motion picture; all the Batman Forever images should’ve given that away. It’s just a soft adult contemporary love song; that’s it. No need to look for hidden layers here. And it was a HUGE hit when it came out. Seal is pretty well known as a ballad singer. Listen to CRAZY.
We are never gonna survive unless we ... hear you react to "Crazy"
Except its not. He wrote this back in the 80s, didn't like it, but finally recorded it for his second album. They just used it for the film a year later, but the song wasn't written for the film. And even if it was, that doesn't mean you can't analyze it and look for meaning behind it. Plenty of great music has been written for film.
Uh, a little strange to suggest that such clearly-symbolic lyrics shouldn't be examined for deeper meaning.
Watch Rick Beato's breakdown of this song and tell me if you think its "just a soft adult contemporary love song, that's it', afterwards....
th-cam.com/video/Hhgoli8klLA/w-d-xo.html
@@moonlitegram It doesn’t really matter if he wrote it specifically for the film or not, it became THE love ballad for that movie nonetheless, and Seal most definitely signed off on it as you can tell by the video.
At the 1996 Grammy Awards, this song won awards for Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Seal won for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance.
The story goes that when Seal wrote this amazing song he wasn't entirely convinced by it, and only after he played it to some people he knew in the music industry and they all said it was sensational, he decided to release it. It's so beautiful. Another great Seal song is 'Crazy'. Well worth check out. He's a Brit from Nigerian roots.
Crazy is my favorite Seal song 🎵
💛🧡❤
Been hearing this song nearly 30 years … as I get older the chills elevate with his voice, music, lyrics. So powerful!
1994 was the year of Release...Won about every award possible. Considered a Masterpiece to this day. Phenomenal!
Omg I love this song...super complicated musically but he breezes thru it...amazing
He is British-Nigerian. He is the male version of another British-Nigerian legend, icon the wonderful Sade.
Yeah, tons of people know this song. It was a hit during that time. You guys are listening to everything which is excellent. Everyone likes the BABY! part. Lol
Seal is a British singer/songwriter. You need to check out "Crazy" and Adamski "Killer" who he first started his singing with. Adamski was a British musician. This music is from the early 90's and was huge in the UK where it went to No1 in the UK charts
Crazy is a must 😍😍
Defiantly check out both of these songs, and to set the record straight, Seal is the bigger celebrity, Heidi Klum is famous for being Seal’s ex.
Yes to all of the above, with the caveat that the album version of Killer is superior to Adamski.
@@ianlonghurst7466 DEFINITELY 😉
this song is a masterpiece.
Yes, no surprise seeing who the producer was.
Yes
Absolutely
I'm a metal head and I agree, the song has a great flow and would have never believed it was from a batman movie.
Exactly
Kiss From a Rose was pretty unique for a popular radio hit when it came out. It got famous off the Batman Forever soundtrack in 95 IIRC. Don't think I've heard anything quite like it before or since.
It sounds like a million songs.. it’s just pop? 🤦♂️
@@bmorg5190 What 3 songs does it sound like that came before it?
@@bmorg5190 I don't think so. With all those layers coming in at different times? Almost sounds like some sort of medieval Round or old folk song, but transposed onto modern R&B. I don't think I can name any song that sounds similar, and I don't think you can either.
That soundtrack has the best U2 track too; “Hold Me, Kiss Me, Thrill Me, Kill Me”
Phenomenal voice, basically “pop rock”. This came out around 1994 and ruled the airwaves!
Watching this right after your latest Bee Gees experience. I love them and don't know why either. I love Seal too, and never wondered where to put him. Since I was a kid I've had two boxes. Do I like it? Do I not? Stuff moves between those two boxes to this day, and I never put much worry into wondering about genre. I like funk, punk, soul, blues, swing, rock, alternative, metal, folk, country, hip-hop, classical... more genres than I can remember. It's a blessing I wish my own kids had. They live in this narrow space between Bieber and Sheeran. Tragic. So glad that you've explored so much on this channel, with no end in sight yet.
Man I'm 29 and this is one of my favorite songs. Reminds me of watching the ending credits of Batman Forever as a kid and hearing this song come on a the very end. Man I miss those simpler times.
Seal and u2 together 😎👌 only one soundtrack is FOREVER...
@@patrioticcat5768 u2 was on there?
I’m so glad you reacted to this gorgeous song!! ❤️🇨🇦
Seal interviewed on another channel I watch, Rick Beato, and went into depth about this song. He’s so amazing and he just wrote this song off the top of his head. If you get a chance to see that interview, it’s well worth the watch.
What makes this song great?!
th-cam.com/video/Hhgoli8klLA/w-d-xo.html
Rick Beato is the goat for breaking songs down. He helps you understand specifically why you like a song when you lack the vocabulary yourself!
Oh I watched that the other day, well my husband did I was watching it over his shoulder but yeah, that guy is awesome
@@donrocktheimposter912 Yes! Rick is awesome! He’s a good teacher!
His voice is so smooth and beautiful and just relaxes you. He is also a very nice person to meet. The song is amazing but the Batman movie was horrible that it was in. He was a judge on The Voice in Australia. There was a contestant who came on and sang and none of the judges turned for him and they told him he had a voice for Broadway and he said that was his dream to be in Broadway musicals. Seal said you have a voice that would be perfect there and he paid for him to go to Broadway and be in musicals there and got him started on what he wanted to actually do.
At least it wasn’t Batman and Robin!
I'd say this song is soft rock. His biggest hit was Crazy which is not soft, it's a banger and needs to be played loud on giant speakers!! 😁
You are right. It's soft rock. Back in the 90s
This was on the Batman Forever soundtrack and was extremely popular with people who listen to a variety of genres. I t got much radio play. He has a beautiful voice and has done some acting over the years.
I'd categorize Seal as one hell of a vocalist - don't care about genres or labels. This guy is something special.
This is one of the most complex pop songs there is. The key progressions, the crazy harmony overlays, the strings... it's pretty much a work of art to my ears!
That´s it...The new generations...
This is a special song for me. I graduated in 1996 (high school) on my 18th birthday. I played this on my car tape-CD player while I drove to graduation ceremony. It’s so calming and nice.
This song is great not only for the amazing vocal melody but, musically it has real substance. It's not your typical straight forward type pop song.
I've always considered this to be a perfect song. Everything about it works beautifully
Hes such a special artist. I love the way you limit yourself and the musical artists you listen too. Not everyone needs a label to be understood and appreciated. I love Seal because he is truly timeless. And this is a beautiful song.
Absolutely one of the most beautiful songs that I have ever heard.
The name of the genre you’re looking for is call a “ballad”. It incorporates pop, soft rock, R&B, gospel, and classical music. If it incorporates elements of hard rock then it becomes a “power ballad” instead.
I wouldn't categorize Seal as rock, but I also wouldn't consider him purely R&B although there are a lot of R&B influences in his music. There are also songs that incorporate heavy guitar riffs. I think trying to comfortably place him in a genre is challenging. He's Seal. That's all. I recommend Crazy next. This is early to mid 90s and yes, it's off the Batman soundtrack. He's an incredibly talented artist and vocalist.
Hes also proven himself an outstanding coach on the voice Australia.
I mean this song is 3/4 time with medieval influences though.
@@annother3350 true. It's very different. I think that's what catches our attention. It's beautiful song.
Can't believe this song was cut. I love the ending to this song and felt robbed!!! Amazing song, amazing artist, he's British, but to Nigerian and Brazilian parents.
He’s British and was born in the UK
One of the MOST BEAUTIFUL SONGS of the 90’s! 💯
The vocal and instrument layering in the song is insane
he is english not american. 1st started with the song "killer" with adamski, great techno 90s song. and this is just a pop ballad.
I’ve seen Seal live numerous times & I promise you, his voice is as clear as a bell live. Incredible performer
Always enjoyed his music...smooth voice.
Amazing voice, amazing songwriter, amazing artist!!! I have everything he has ever made. It is music I never ever tire of. His first album has his photo of him on the cover when he had hair. Madonna is a huge fan of Seal.
The last time I heard this song was in 1997. I actually still enjoy it now that I'm hearing it again. Batman Forever soundtrack!
When it came out it was the favorite song of my mother. Last time i heard this song was like 25 years ago...
That's why i like your chanel : listen to old song that i liked, but i forgot.
Greetings from France !
It's so easy to binge watch Brad and Lex. Great songs , taking us back. Up to late again!
This was 90s. Seal was a big star before he met and married Heidi Klum. He is British.
Seal's the man. 90's R&B/soul. Batman 3 soundtrack,the only Batman movie to have two hit songs, this, and U2's "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me," one of their best upbeat rockers.
It’s been like 20 years and this song gets better every time I hear it
Fun fact, not sure if anyone else pointed this out: Seal wrote and demo'd this in the late 80s before he was ever signed, and it was a pretty basic acoustic ballad that he was kind of embarrassed of and never showed anyone. Whilst recording with Trevor Horn (founder of the Buggles of Video Killed the Radio Star fame and producer of a bunch of artists to this day), Horn coaxed Seal into letting him hear it, and then came up with the arrangement you hear on the final track with the strings and oboe and stuff. It got released as single to middling success, but then got a huge bump off the back of Joel Schumacher using it on the Batman Forever OST.
I love this song! It's the soundtrack from Batman Forever I loved that movie when I was a kid 👌🔥
Pretty sure seal is British, he was a big music star in the UK, he did the soundtrack for one of the original batman movies
Major hit of the 90s. Reminds me of the "Robin Hood" song from a few years previous
Still hits. Arguably the best super hero movie song of all time.
I love his voice. Try his song "Crazy".
I think this song was popular because it was on a Batman soundtrack
This song makes me melt. Doesn't matter how many times I listen to it. Seal's face is the result of a type of lupus'.
This song never gets old to me.
One of the best pop song recordings ever. This is one song that did not need the video, which actually subtracts from the music on this one.
Second best song on the Batman soundtrack. First The Riddler by Method Man.
I still have the original cd when it first came out during my childhood back in 1995. Seal was way big back then, even before he got married.
Ah Seal!
No his music is like soul soft rock. He's very versatile. Popular singer in the '90s and '00s. He's very accomplished outside of music too and has known family.
A classic. This pops into my head every few years.
Glad to see some more 90s music here. I grew up with all this stuff 😁
An incredibly complex and beautiful song.
The production of this song!!!!!!!! brilliant!!!!!
I'm a metalhead, and I'll gladly admit this is one of the best composed songs I've ever heard. Soft and smooth, but also powerful and epic.
Absolutely beautiful song which was the theme song from a Batman movie
Does it really matter what TYPE of music it is. It's a beautiful song.
Most reacters get hung up on that way too much to a point that they don't pay attention to the actual song like this video they didn't even really talk about the actual music or what they thought of it
@@matinmirnaghibi5846 yeah I think reviewers should spend more time evaluating how the music makes them feel and whether they enjoyed it or not rather than trying to categorize it. I've been a musician my entire life and my biggest criteria for performing a song is whether I liked it and the audience liked it.
@@neillenet291 spot on
@@neillenet291 Have you ever seen the TH-cam channel Rob Squad Reactions, they do a real good job on what you said
@@thebadgamer9427 also college students react they're very good at it too
His song Human Beings is amazing, every Seal album I have is EXCELLENT from beginning to end. What a great voice!
Yes... yes.... YES....!!!!
This has always been a favorite song of mine. It’s beautiful.
Love Seal’s voice! His scars are from Lupus. He was a longtime coach on The Voice Australia. Such a gentleman.
Seal was a hit maker before he married Heidi! It’s called Pop music. This is obviously from the soundtrack of a Batman movie (Batman Forever 1995) starring Val Kilmer and Nicole Kidman and Jim Carey as the Riddler! The song is so beautiful and Seal voice is amazing! Check out his hit song, Crazy!❤️❤️
One of the best singers of the 90s
One of the best voices of the 90s
One of the most beautiful songs of all-time, no arguments entertained. 😍
Power, pleasure & pain
Is this what the young folks call?
Pushing P
This is what we used to call "soft rock" -- not all rock has to be hard.
Seal first hit in the U.S. with the dance track "Crazy"; I don't know if he had hits in Britain before that or not.
Kind of like a power ballad.
Killer with Adamski prior to Crazy in the UK yep
This song was everywhere everyone but the soundtrack for this song
The genre for this song is adult contemporary. You 2 should defiantly review his song Crazy better yet the extended version of it.
Seal is originally a British artist, check out his catalog of work, it's really good, he is one talented man. I went out and bought the CD of his first album release back in the day. Also check out Massive Attack "Unfinished Sympathy" a brillint Triphop (yeah i spelled it correctly) track. check out C&C Music Factory among others
He is a Legend
It's R&B composed with orchestral elements. The song structure and quintessential bluesy bellow from Seal anchors the entire chorus.
Seal is kinda unique, hard to label, no wonder you couldn't. He was one of the prefomers at the Freddie Mercury Tribute concert in 1992, it tells a lot.
Imagine only hearing this song for the first time two weeks ago...so lucky. Have fun you two!
One of the most beautiful songs of the late 20'th century. I think you're struggling with it because it's in 3/4 (waltz time signature). It was considered a soulful pop song when released and has a unique medieval orchestration/style. Rick Beato has a great What Makes this Song Great (ep 105) video that digs into it (including some video chat with Seal himself).
I saw him live in 2004 and he came down to the audience right next to me. As a live performer he’s completely magnetic, amazing singer and oozing charisma that can’t be described. He held a crowd of 20,000 in the palm of his hand.
He became famous because his pipes are AMAZING! He’s soft rock/ R&B mostly with a little bit of ‘80’s pop thrown in. His lyrics are known for their poetry. This song was part of a Batman movie soundtrack. This song released 1994.
This song is always such a breath of fresh air the melody is so complicated
You'd have a difficult time finding a more passionate love song than this.... This is a 90's song...
I was singing this song earlier today: glad you’re listening to it-amazing singing voice on Seal. I recommend “Prayer for the Dying”.
Yes! Yes!
*Seal is just like laughter...you are always in the mood to laugh.*
A British singer, he has a beautiful voice. Seal got his scars from a type of Lupus, which causes very large scars.
Seal was famous YEARS before Heidi Klum became a famous model (she was SI's cover model in 1998)... Seal's first record came out in 1991 and 'Crazy' was his earliest hit single. Seal performed at Queen's tribute concert to Freddie Mercury in 1992... Seal's music is a mix of pop, R&B and light rock. He's from Nigerian descent, but British born.
'Kiss from a rose' was on his 1994 album, but was released as a single for the movie 'Batman Forever' in 1995 and became one of his biggest hits... along w/ "Don't cry" ... 'Prayer for the dying'... Seal's 1994 album was a global hit, selling 4 million copies (4X platinum) in the US.
Another hit was 'Waiting for you' that came after 2000.
We played this song after I got married, as we walked into our reception…❤️
For a stunning cover of this song, lookup Larkin Poe "Kiss From A Rose." Larkin Poe is a Grammy nominated pair of sisters (descendants of Edgar Allen Poe) who play blues/rock/roots music. During the pandemic, they did a series of covers from their living room (no special effects). Seal himself saw the video and called them to say how much he loved and was impressed by their rendition.
Seal and Adamski ~ Killer ~ check that shizzle out young bloods 🤪
❤️❤️❤️ SEAL!! Such an AMAZING VOICE!! ❤️🔥💯😁👍
The bridge on this song is absolute magic.
