The whole first Seal album is an absolute masterpiece.

This is an Adamski tune, Seal just did the vocals is all. It's not a 'Seal' song. And Seal's solo stuff went in a very different, more cringe ballad style direction to please the US market where electronic music was only big in places like Detroit and Chicago. At this time America was still listening to motley cru and bon jovi. Uk music was well ahead of all that stuff.This remains the best thing Seal ever played a part in and in all honesty Adamski could have got a hundred different singers and it would have still been a big song.

@@DarrenskiSeal was hired to fo the vocals because thar is what singers do. Without Seal singing Adamski had only 1 other smash hit like Killer (N-R-G) and Seal conquered not just the US but the whole world with his 1st solo album and that awesome track called 'Crazy'

This song was a huge hit here in the UK. Adamski had been around clubs playing it live around 1987, 88.. The whole story about this song is way more interesting than the song itself. Adam, the guy behind Adamski tells a great story where he was getting high and just messing about with buttons on his Ensoniq SQ80 and a Roland TR909. Once he had got that very unique sound he saved it as "Killer"... Have a YT search for "Adamski ft. Seal - 'Killer' Deconstruction in Ableton + Adamski Interview". Really good interview..

This is the UK Version, Released one year before the US Version. The drum machine and keyboards used are different in the US version but it is musically the same song.

Yeah, this was the song that broke Seal into the mainstream, back in 1990, and it was a UK#1 for four weeks. Adamski only had one other hit, sans-Seal ("N-R-G" 1989/UK#12), but "Killer" is a total banger. A few months after this, Seal had a major international hit with his self-titled solo LP and the song "Crazy" (1990/US#7, UK#2) breaking him into the difficult US market. A few years later, he had another gigantic smash with "Kiss from a Rose" (1995/US#1, UK#4). He famously married supermodel Heidi Klum and became a household name around the world. Even the song, "Killer" had long legs. He released a solo version less than a year after the Adamski version and that also charted at UK#8 and cracked the US Hot100. Pop superstar George Michael also did a hit cover of "Killer" (1993/UK#1) as a medley with his version of "Papa Was a Rollin' Stone" by The Temptations (1972/US#1, UK#14).

Great history lesson of this song. Adamski was way ahead of his time

@iedermensisanders Ай бұрын

Saw Adamski play a live set in Ibiza 1990 I think it was in the Pacha an amazing club at the time it was still open air. Madonna's Vogue just out.....Saw many hollywood celebrities partying there and in the Ku as well, amazing times with great music and dj's who were in it for the love of it....

Seal has been bald for so long I didn't recognize him with hair. Crazy and Kiss from a Rose from the Batman soundtrack are my favorite Seal songs.

@Darrenski 2 ай бұрын

No, all Seal's solo stuff was made to please the US music market. This remains the best thing he ever took part in, and it's not even his song. And what exactly does 'kissed by a rose' mean? I'll tell you... it means nothing. It's just a few pretty words to get all the ballad mugs on board with some soft core mindless cringe.

Yes older people experienced the best music in 80s 90s. This was a jam a big no.1 hit which killed the uk club scene .. oh my goodness. And we never had the internet even. 👌🏾 the videos had no cgi or the big budgets but god they were creative and the sounds were amazing

Was this even released in the US? And how did the chart compilers -- in their "wisdom" -- classify it? Electronica? In summer 1990, one would hear this song about once a day in Britain.

This is the real original version. The track was initially an instrumental composed by Adamski who later hooked up with Seal and did a vocal version. Seal’s album version is a remake produced by Trevor Horn.
