I think the amazing thing that nobody talks about is that Seal plays the guitar upside down. He took a right handed guitar because it was strung for right hand and flipped it and started playing it. So in essence it is like playing the guitar with the strings backwards. I play guitar and I would have a problem playing a left handed strung guitar flipped
I was wondering what kind of fkd up chords he was playing then it hit me that the was playing D, C, Em and A all upside down... that has to really mess your brain but it seems he has done it before without a problem,.... he's one cool cat!
@@iexist6021 xD I have been watching way too much political content. When your comment popped up, I was like... "A reasonable leftie? Couldn't be." Then it was about music.
Steven Tyler sangs with street performers as well, and I saw a video where Will i am sang with a street performer . However, Seal is the only one I've ever heard of that actually has them to come and open up for him at his show. That's awesome!
David Gilmour, from Pink Floyd has brought street performers on stage including a guy who plays the wine glasses (no joke) ua-cam.com/video/o5KC1jVvZpo/v-deo.html
great idea Seal. I love to see celebrities give back. Such a relief. With so much greed,cruelty and selfishness in this society those who are fortunate like you can make the difference. We must stop focusing on those video ho's who were fortunate enough to flaunt their asses for those 10 million dollar wedding rings,the Hollywood bad boys who land in and out of jail,the talentless reality tv dregs,the wealthy business owners who pay almost zero in tax dollars while they continue to hire partial slaves (yes slaves)for minimum wages in order to help keep them in designer clothes with imported cars, beach front mansions and expensive personal trainers. Great to see that someone still cares. (for a change)
This is awesome. This lady can sing. I saw Seal in concert this year (2018) in Bristol and as far as concerned I have also duetted with him cause when he sang this, my favourite song ever I was singing my heart out! Did I sound good? You'll never know!
He does this everywhere. Couple years ago, I was feeding the reindeer, just humming jingle bells. Turn around, and there is Seal singing along. I was at the North Pole.
Seal is always a class act. He’s one of the only superstar acts I can recall that consistently performs on the street with regular folks. What a great guy
actually it is quite normal for left handers..when they were young, or started learning to play, they usually borrowed right handed guitar from people around :)
Most left handed players, including Hendrix, restring the guitar so the strings are the right way up. This means the fingering/chord shapes are the same as they are for righthanders. Very few lefties learn to play the strings upside down - the chord shapes are totally foreign and often difficult to finger. One of the most famous upside down players was Dick Dale of Miserilou fame. When he finally got a left handed guitar he restrung it so it was still upside down as he was used to! Bizarrely, this meant any rightie could pick up Dales left handed guitar and play it as the strings would be the right way up when the guitar was played right handed
nice one Seal ;))also she is shy, but she has a fantastic voice !!if I was a rich music /artist executive I would sign her for some voice sessions ! .. for sure ..;))
Nope they just have left handed guitars that are strung the same as the other way. Seal plays a standard right handed guitar completely upside down, so has to fret chords completely different
I would love to see you with that silver vest on again! Man! Gorgeous! I opened up my Insta! You can see how bored my life is without my utube videos of your talent! Thank you seal! Try to keep in mind about st.catharines meridian centre!
And ps! Love hurts!s but maybe better off without her! But I do no whatthat pain is...and maybe just maybe ! It was her age?who cares it was all wrong..she will never meet another you! 😘😘🌹💋🌹💋🌹💋🌹💋
She was exactly me in that moment. Seal is a supernatural force. He’s not a human.. had that really been me ,in fact, I quit busking, because I was afraid of an encounter with him. and I have encountered quite a few celebs and most of them dig me because I don’t become starstruck. but he is the one that I could not handle. I could even handle Prince had I met him but Seal ??/no way.
Seal. What a guy.
Greatest song of the 90s. What a creation.
he sure enough never forgot where he came from I got mad respect for that man😎
Absolutely
Me too
Seal's voice is so powerful and overwhelming, never disappoints. Also once Sherika thawed from being star struck she bloomed herself.
Seal is amazing. I love his approach to connecting with people on the streets and singing.
What a once-in-a-lifetime experience for that young lady. You did great Seal !
absolutely !!!

That moment I realize this dude is playing it upside down.
life is so unfair to lefties lol

no, you high bro, the video is upside down
Us lefties make due all the same.

Come on, isn't this the greatest fantasy we shower singers have? How cool...Seal is timeless and seems like a great guy. Thanks for this video :)

David Herring type in David Gilmore with busker!
@FuturePants the one with matisyahu is cool aswell

Seal very down to earth and plays quite well upside down ☺
WELL BEYOND BRILLIANT !!!
Those are the moments, which are not present at concerts, and we, the consumers, get goosebumps!!! Thank you for these moments!!!!❤️❤️❤️

Seal is one cool cat
I remember hearing this song when it first came out. It knocked my eyes out.
Way too cool! It takes Seal to bring it to the streets! Don't see anybody else of his calibre doing this...
ever heard of a small ginger haired guy called Ed Sheeran ?
true!
H Ca
Don't recall Ed jamming with total stranger's busking for pennies but could be wrong.
WiiNV youtube it, there are plenty of times.
H Ca
Don't see buskers, plenty Ed with fans!

Well put.
A real superstar.. well done Mr Seal you are a true true legend
This guy is just pure talent. I've been listening to him since 1990 and I've seen him live,and he is just amazing. Love to you SEAL.
God Bless Sting..his kindness brings tears to my eyes.
Seal
oops.. :)
Spear Heads Live Band hahahaha sting is a wanker hahaha class slip up
Anyone notice that Seal is playing a right handed guitar upside down, left handed - is he from a different universe?
Graham Russell of Air Supply also plays like that ^_^
apparently so, but it is truly a brilliant universe !!!
IS THAT BRILLIANT ??? .... YES, PERHAPS FROM MANY UNIVERSES !!!
no, you high bro, the video is upside down
This technique was pioneered by Elizabeth Cotton somewhere around 1920's or 30's.
So hard to sing in front of such an established singer. Superb X
The only star that gives back to the people who put him there in the first place god bless him for believing in them he's a real 🌟
We need seal back making music, we never got enough of his brilliance
She is so badass. One of my favorite things that I’ve ever seen in my life.
Sherika did a wonderful job, even though she seemed totally intimidated. Seal is a great duet partner.
Sherika Rules ... Bless Her --- & Seal !!!
This is awesome. This lady can sing. I saw Seal in concert this year (2018) in Bristol and as far as concerned I have also duetted with him cause when he sang this, my favourite song ever I was singing my heart out! Did I sound good? You'll never know!
Thanks for Posting.
Seal = COOL .
7 days from now I'll
get the pleasure to
experience SEAL Live , for the first time , in Florida !!! ☺👍.
sorry ,, 6 .
Seal is the epitome of Kool
one of the best songs ever!!!!
He does this everywhere.
Couple years ago, I was feeding the reindeer, just humming jingle bells.
Turn around, and there is Seal singing along.
I was at the North Pole.
Their voices work very well together - a beautifully harmonious combination.
I watched that with a smile on my face the whole entire time. Bravo!
I'm so moved by the music.. I almost teared. So moving
Sherika is wonderful ... a truly therapeutic video !!!
Amazing. Brilliant performance by both. Seal is an incredible human being.
Seal is a gent as they say,and a real human it seems,fare play hes not too big to know hes still one of us,as they say in liverpool ynwa
new respect for for Seal. You rock man
Seal is always a class act. He’s one of the only superstar acts I can recall that consistently performs on the street with regular folks. What a great guy
Such a beautiful song! Loved this video
amazing how he play the guitar upside down
actually it is quite normal for left handers..when they were young, or started learning to play, they usually borrowed right handed guitar from people around :)
shows how much attention i was paying lol. and im left handed.
MrLesPaul1 Hendrix restrung the properly so that it was somewhat normal to play, seal leaves it "as-is"
That is how people play in south hemisphere. I thought everyone knows.
Most left handed players, including Hendrix, restring the guitar so the strings are the right way up. This means the fingering/chord shapes are the same as they are for righthanders. Very few lefties learn to play the strings upside down - the chord shapes are totally foreign and often difficult to finger. One of the most famous upside down players was Dick Dale of Miserilou fame. When he finally got a left handed guitar he restrung it so it was still upside down as he was used to! Bizarrely, this meant any rightie could pick up Dales left handed guitar and play it as the strings would be the right way up when the guitar was played right handed
i have been there in London at that spot! I wish i could have seen that. Seal is awesome!
Well you'r seeing it right now, here!
Every time I hear this I'm reminded of the Dancing with the Stars performance by Seal of the song when Eddy Stutz & Valentina danced. Truly amazing
2024. Seal's music never gets old.
Can't lie, made me shed a tear. Thank u Seal
Seal is a beautiful man inside and out !!
Every time I hear this song, I think immediately of Batman...
Yes, one of the most emotional songs of all time and definately best superhero song ever!
I love you Seal! 😍
fuck ! its a trip to see someone just playing and singing raw in front of you without warm ups and what not that guy is amazing
wow seal,your playing an awesome Gibson gat upside down,i thought jimmy was the only one that could do that,your full of surprizes
Eric Gales does too (search live concert in colorado, impossible not to like)
I had to stop busking. Seal just kept showing up. Couldn't get to play any of my own songs.
a meme is about to be created hahahaha
😆😆😆
lol
My son who was only 4/5 used to sing this as "kissed on the nose by a train" LOL.
Such a beautiful song. Always gets me
This. My. Faverite.
Song. Seal. Is. Kiss.
By. The. Rose on the grave
Sherika must've been awestruck being able to sing with the great Seal...I'd be at a loss for words if he offered to sing it with me.
I LOVE this real! Part of our lives! Seal is the man. How can you play like this and not recognise how real life is influenced by ourtime
nice one Seal ;))also she is shy, but she has a fantastic voice !!if I was a rich music /artist executive I would sign her for some voice sessions ! .. for sure ..;))
A real one, no bs, just music to its purest form. How empowering it must feel to sing along such a great musician
Seal, thank you for comming to "my world" and blessing it :-). YOU ARE MAJIC
I never realised Seal plays guitar Jimi Hendrix style
Seal must be left handed. Kurt Cobain, Tony Iommi, Paul McCartney and other left handed guitarists play like that.
Upside down?Amazing!!
Nope they just have left handed guitars that are strung the same as the other way. Seal plays a standard right handed guitar completely upside down, so has to fret chords completely different
Don't ever forget Graham Russell from Air Supply. He plays guitar that way, too ^_^
So beautiful,love you Seal
Talent And Humility.MY Respect Great Singer.
Couldn't stop playing this song when it first came out and love this duet.
Seal is great!
So is Shereka...nice stuff!
Great performance, the lady done well. Seal is very inviting, engaging and down to earth.
J'adore, Un très grand Monsieur qui partage la musique avec des inconnues (us) Respect
The girl does pretty good job as well. It's obvious the verse is too low for her but she still manages to pull it out.
Thanks for the video!♥️
