Seal

Some time ago, I wrote about the background behind Gnarls Barkley and his version of "Crazy."

I never wrote about Seal though.  His rendition of his song, "Crazy," is just as profound and intriguing as Gnarls Barkley.  With that said then...

Refer to Wikipedia for Seal's early life and career beginnings.  Refer to the Wikipedia link for an overall background.

Genres considered - Pop, R&B, Soul

Side note - The scarring on Seal's face is from a form of lupus that leaves immense scarring on the skin.
