SUMMARY: RUNNING TIME: 3:38 Min.
First appearing on Seal’s 1994 self-titled album (also known as Seal II), this love song’s popularity, of course, comes from 1995’s Batman Forever film soundtrack. In addition to a MTV music video, the song went to score three Grammys. Although it might well have won an Oscar, “Kiss From a Rose” was technically ineligible because the song hadn’t been created for the film.
REVIEW:
If there is a definitive Seal hit, “Kiss From a Rose” fits the bill. Taking full advantage of its exuberant melody, Seal’s vocals on this romantic track are fabulous. Highly recommended!
BRIAN’S ODD MOON RATING: 9 Stars
Note: Other tracks from this album worth considering include: Brandy’s “Where Are You Now?” and The Devlins’ “Crossing The River.”
