Signature

Every band and every solo artist has a signature classic to their name that is guaranteed to be on a concert set list.

With so much talk of Seal recently, his signature is "Kiss from a Rose."  

So I thought I would take this opportunity to highlight all the best from a Seal classic.


Released as a single in July 1994

Included in the 1994 film soundtrack for The NeverEnding Story III

Re-released in the 1995 film soundtrack for Batman Forever

Point of intrigue - The re-release boosted "Kiss from a Rose" to No. 1 in the U.S. and Australia.  The song also reached the Top 10 in such countries as Canada, France, Iceland, and Norway.

1996 Grammy Award Wins -
Record of the Year
Song of the Year
Best Male Pop Vocal Performance

Certified Gold in France, Norway, Spain, the U.S. (physical), the U.S. (digital)

Certified Platinum in Australia and Denmark

Certified 2x Platinum in the UK
