I love the line, "in a sky full of people, only some want to fly, isn't that crazy"... it's so true. It's like so much potential just thrown away or not realized. It's like falling from grace in a way.
Alot of people living simpler lives are much happier than him.
@@woahblackbetty7691 Wow, defensive much? And cool that you have a direct tunnel to his head to inform us of his emotional situation.. just a bit creepy.
Thankyou...I didn't know the words.
'We are born to fly as high as we can' - Hawkwind -) , you are right
@@LittleAriel
i hope you'll understand that you have to look at the lyrics, in the light of the times, back then, not in the light of these dark times, full of scensorship, and self doubt, gender uncertainty, 9:31 cancel culture will cancel itself off, but by then the damage will be done and irreversible like it always was and forever will be...in twenty years time you will be ashamed of your generation, and the part you are unwittingly playing in throwing everything down a memory hole...(read 1984, available on line and shiver, the future is already laid out)
So ahead of his time!!! Style, substance, sex appeal. This guy was so cool.
Seal is one of my favourite 90s artists. He started off as guest vocalist on the Adamski song 'Killer', definitely worth a listen and it was a chart topper here in the UK.
Totally agree , it’s where he started , brilliant track
My favourite. The way Seal delivers the lines "solitary brother..." and "solitary sister..." still gives me the chills.
Killer was another level. It kicked it all off for me
Killer definitely worth a listen
Killer was a brilliant track 👍🏽
It's amazing how much Seal's image has changed, yet "Crazy" remains timeless.
One of the many things I like about Seal is he always sounds fresh. This song is 32 years old and it doesn't sound dated at all.
Luckily, he's a big guy, because all that talent needs somewhere to reside.
That first cd by Seal is a masterpiece.
I have the 5.1 surround version. Amazing.
Agreed -- this song, The Beginning, Deep Water, Show Me, all great Tracks. 'Crazy' was one of my favorite songs of the early 90s.
Agreeeed
Totally. Blew my teenage mind
Let's not forget Future Love Paradise!
Nailed it, Seal is his own cool unique vibe. He's a world class vocalist and musician, but there's extra oomph simply from being his intriguing self
Seal has an amazing voice. I would suggest that y’all give A Prayer For The Dying a listen. It’s a phenomenal song.
That one always makes me cry. Few songs do that.
Oh my gosh, that song is one of my faves from that album. Definite YES from me on that one.
Really great song
"Prayer for the Dying" and "Don't Cry"
@@RichardX1 Seconded ("Prayer for the Dying") and William Wilson. Seal's music surrounds you. It's almost trance-like. His voice and the composition of this track is outstanding
This was 1991, and it definitely set the vibe for the rest of the 1990s. What a decade, and Seal, what an artist
To this day, i still have a CD Maxi Single
of Crazy. It's my favorite song by Seal.
In 2005, i worked at a record store in
a celebrity heavy part of Los Angeles.
Seal came into the DVD department looking for movie recommendations for he and his then wife Heidi Klum and family to watch for movie night.
He was such a genuinely KIND, engaging,
and vested person to interact with. He took every movie i recommended to him with genuine interest, and even gave me a lite neck massage because he saw i was having a long day.
In person, Seal is a TALL/LARGE man.
Like a professional athlete. A really cool experience. Super talented, and super cool to deal with.
How cool!
That's crazy 😅
@@sashabertold3731 I see what you did there.😉
Wow ! That's awesome !
I still have my vinyl 45 & play it
Love Seal. After Prince, he's my fav. His music is so versatile and his vocals are impeccable!
"whirlpool" "violet" oh! wow!! and they are just the mellow ones great album in my life living on the island "IBIZA" as a19 year old teenager from the u.k an absolute classic of an album!. ; )
Seen that vid! and is great!! am from salford, greater manchester so was cool to see him in "piccadilly manchester centre" busking "in a way" was not there that actual day unfortunately, a legend this guy ; )
This was Seal's first single released in 1991, and he wrote the lyrics. This was the about the fall of the Berlin Wall.
This song has amazing keyboards throughout and the wah wah petal guitar is played by Kenji Suzuki from Simply Red. Seal's vocals are so beautiful and the instruments give a wonderful compliment to a great melody. This has been featured in many movies. Great reaction. Buckets of Maple Syrup love from Canada ❤️❤️ 🇨🇦 🇨🇦
didn't know about the Berlin wall, makes sense now.
Killer with Adamski was released earlier.
"Killer" with Adamski was the first, that was released in 1989 ua-cam.com/video/LtYujyhvIyQ/v-deo.html
* Seal's _Crazy_ was released in 1990.
Wow, didn’t know this. Agreed the synths are amazing. Buckets of Tea and scones love back from England 🏴 ❤️
Remember when this dropped. Everything seemed like it was grunge all the time, this was so refreshing and one of a kind.
This was massive when it came out in the UK. It's hard to describe how groundbreaking this was now that we take dance-pop as a thing that's normal. Tapping into the dance vibe of Adamski's Killer (featuring Seal), Seal moved on to his own release that broke new ground with a soulful futuristic vibe that's definitely on the brink of being straight up Balearic house with its laid-back smooth arpeggiators and piano chords. The structure is also very unique in my view, sounding to be off from the usual 4,, 8, 16 bar kick-ins to get re-entry into the hooks and chorus, which is probably what was keeping it intriguing, unpredictable and sounding fresh to this day.
Strange to me that you are just hearing this song. This is the song that made me love Seal! He is a definite phenom!
Keep in mind that this came out in 91... before they were born or MAYBE they were babies. It's good to see the younger generation expanding both their minds and their experience
This is timeless
Seal is mystical. No artist like him.😊❤️
I was thinking the same thing.
I LOVE Seal! His self titled album (with "Bring it On", "Prayer for the Dying", "Kiss From a Rose", etc.) has become my theme music for driving across the Smoky Mountains from Cherokee to Gatlinburg. There is not a weak song on the whole album and the vibe fits the scenery perfectly. I put it on repeat and drive through with the windows open (in the winter I bundle up with hat and gloves), the music on softly, and enjoy both the nature and the music.
Take note Jay, Seal came out in the '90s. We had some soulful men in the '90s: Maxwell, D'Angelo and Seal. And great and unique women: Erykah Badu and Me'Shell Ndegeocello. Seal has a beautiful song called "If I Could" that he did with Joni Mitchell that you should react to. He's also covered Steve Miller's "Fly like an Eagle" . I've always found Seal's music very hypnotic.
Remember Terence Trent Darby? He was good too. Maybe he was ‘80’s?
@@thecynic9232 I loved Terence. He came on the scene in 1987. One of my all-time favorite artists.
Love Seal, he’s so uniquely talented. 👏🏻
Met Seal in 2009 when I was working for a pro photo shop and studio in Boston. He bought a bunch of Leica cameras and lenses from us. We had him sign our signature wall in our studio. I told him I loved the job on Manic Depression he did with Jeff Beck. He looked genuinely surprised and said “You know about that? A lot of people don’t know I did that”. Awesome guy!!
Love Seal. The man's voice is DIVINE. For further suggestions, I suggest "Love's DIvine" (pun intended), "Get It Together", "Newborn Friend", and perhaps the funkiest song in his discographry, "Killer". Also.... you've done "Crazy" by Seal, "Crazy" by Aerosmith, and "Crazy" by Patsy Cline... might I suggest "Crazy" by Gnarls Barkley? P.S. One of my favorite stories that he related during an interview was one time, when he was touring, he was walking down a hotel corridor toward his room, and he passed a door through which her heard someone playing one if his songs. So he knocked on the door, and when a woman answered, he just started singing right where the song was. Her husband, who was in the bathroom, asked, "Who is it, honey?" and she said, "It's Seal!", and he said, "I know, I can hear him!" So awesome.
And for a bit of variety, maybe "I'm Going Slightly Mad" by Queen? Not their best song, but definitely keeping with the crazy theme, and it's my go-to song when I'm super stressed out.
Oh man... I love "Killer"! It's fantastic!! Haven't heard that one in a minute, either. Need to go grab the disc and throw it on now... Thanks for another great reaction!
How about "Let's Go Crazy" by Prince?
@@DOUBLECW They've done that one. AND "Crazy Little Thing Called Love". But those are the only 4 songs I know of simply called "Crazy".
CeeLo Green has a great voice and the vid for Crazy is awesome and award winning.
As Amber says at @5:00, the vibe is huge. Fun fact, along with Seal's voice (which is fantastic) this is due largely to the fact that the album was produced by the great Trevor Horn (who was the singer for Buggles - "Video Killed The Radio Star"). He produced SO many great albums in the 80's and 90's. Horn is known as "The man who invented the 80's" and there's a good case for that argument. Horn is Seal's music director for his upcoming tour and the Buggles are going to open the show.
Happen to be reading his book right now-he says that they worked on the middle eight of this song for months to get it right!
This song is like a time warp back to 1991. My sister loved this song. A lot. Used to play it constantly. Seal has a great voice. As much as “Kissed By A Rose” got played to death over the years, that song is phenomenal. He makes it.
Kiss from a rose.
The first time I ever heard this song, I could not stop listening to it over and over. My late husband and I once decided to go to the 930 club in DC just to see who was performing. We have been to many concerts there. It turns out that Seal was performing. His stage presence was unbelievable. He is very talented. Good memory from many years gone by.
Yes I enjoy that venue 9:30 Club. Although I live in Detroit I have traveled to DC many times to catch concerts etc
This entire album is FIRE! DEEP WATER and SHOW ME are two MUST HEARS!!!
Also, on one of Seal's CD singles, his version of Hendrix's "As The Wind Cries Mary" is great.
100% Agree. Its one of the few albums where i literally love every song. Love Show me,Future love paradise and whirlpool.
Killer and Future Love Paradise are top notch as well.
This song is 30 years old and it is still my favorite song by him.
Me same!
This was his 1st hit off his debut album. He's got an amazing voice!
Seal is just his own vibe, and he brings a sophistication in his look and sound. Such an incredible artist.
This is a good one.
Alanis morrissette covered this one years later. Both versions are amazing
Yeah! Love both versions!
Agreed!
The production on this track was just so different and ahead of its time. Trevor Horn is a genius.
Jay & Amber, it’s been well over a year since you reacted to Mark Anthony (Marc).
Amber will melt hearing him sing “You Sang To Me”!!!!
He was married to Jennifer Lopez for about 10 years.
This has to be one of my absolute favorite songs from Seal. To me, it's timeless.
1991. I was 12. I grew up with great 80’s and 90’s music… and music videos!! 👍🏼 Great song! His first hit!
His Prayer for the Dying is awesome as is Love Divine.
My favorite is "Don't Cry" another beautiful song.
I wore this cassette out! Future Love Paradise is another great one from his 1991 debut album.
My kids were getting older and then they absolutely starting liking Seal! Just walking around the house singing “Crazy”! After awhile I was singing it too! Love him!
This song was used in the movie The Devil Wears Prada. It fits perfectly because the movie is about the fast-paced, high stress fashion industry. Kiss From A Rose was used in one of the Batman movies.
Try Terence Trent Darby "Wishing Well". Huge artist for a very short time. First album was amazing all the way through. Similar vibe to this song. I was luckily enough to see both of them live in a small club.
This was such a banger back in the 90s. Still absolute epic. When the chorus hits, its such a rush of uplifting, intense, emotional.
We need that style of music to return! Definitely feel it in your soul! 🤘
Seal is fantastic all the way around. His sound was and still IS unique, interesting, and just awesome!!!
His entire debut album was sublime.
Seal is so elegant and cool. He has a unique voice and style. I like this song so much.
There’s a live version of this version (MTV awards, maybe?) where in the line “In a heaven of people there’s only some want to fly”, he draws out the word “some” for what seems like forever as the instrumentals drop out. It gives me chills.
Seal is just an amazing singer. Crazy is a great song and put him on the map, but he has so many incredible songs.
One of those timeless hits that's been covered in every style of music you can think of...even Metal. Alanis Morissette does a great version, as well as Mushroomhead. Both are well worth a listen.
Seal's voice has such a great texture to it! If you enjoy him, you can check out "Killer" and "Prayer for the Dying."
Ahhhhhh...this song was just mind-blowing when it came out. Total breath of fresh air; we all LOVED it. It's a very fond memory from the early 90s.
Hey y'all!! 👋....when Crazy first came out, I was like....who is this??? Then when I heard Kiss From A Rose...I was sold! Seal has that unique vibe to his sound.
Produced by Trevor Horn, who sang Video Killed The Radio Star by The Buggles. He also was briefly the lead singer of YES (one album in the early '80s, and another in 2018) and he produced Owner Of A Lonely Heart.
Seal is definitely one of a kind. He's funk, tribal, alternative, pop, and very experimental. This is from his debut album, and I would recommend just about any track from it.
Just an amazing song. Has helped me through hard times. Trevor Horn was the producer, and the production needless to say is stellar. He also produced for many other people including the band Yes.
Glad you mentioned Trevor Horn and the production of this song. Stellar is a great description.
Indeed Trevor Horn is one of the most underestimated and influential producers of the last 40 years.
@Paul Cockram Definely! His work on FGTH's "Welome To The Pleasuredome" was a masterpiece. If you haven't heard SEAL's version of David Bowie's "Ashes To Ashes" produced by Trevor Horn, you must. It's amazing.
@Sean Swinton yes his work with FGTH, can only be described as a violent punch in the face, it had so much energy.
The guy from Buggles?
The entire album this was on was a futuristic vibe with a message.
Check out “Killer” by Adamski. It features Seal on vocals, the first time the world heard his voice on a track.
His album "Human Being" is a masterpiece.
YES !!!!! 100% ... Overplayed in my house probably .... LOVE IT ,,,
@@leodejongful One of those "most underrated albums", along with Raoul & The Kings of Spain.
This whole album is one of my Top 5 of the 1990’s. It’s pretty much a masterpiece.
As people have pointed out, Seal is a very soulful, versatile singer. His breakthrough for many came in 1990 with Adamski the underground house music producer from London who featured him on the track "Killer" which was a massive global dance hit and launched Seal's career. You might want to review to see where it all began
Crazy was his first hit here in The States. It was considerably earlier than Kiss From A Rose. He was younger. This is more representative of his repertoire, though KISS FROM A ROSE (a rare waltz) is my favorite. Side note formerly married to Heidi Klum.
Btw...loved his concert here in Wolftrap!
I was so sad when they split - they used to renew their wedding vows every year, iirc... 🤍
Seal is amazing. Saw him perform live almost 20 years ago
Seal. One of the UK’s greatest artistes of the 90’s
Seal is an Artist extrodinaire ❣️❣️❣️
Absolutely bangin choice. Love Seal. Such a unique, smooth, yet mysterious sound. It's like a midnight, polished Porsche driving through a foggy Forest. You guys should do "Human Being" by him. :)
This song came out in 1991 on Seal's debut album. He was only 28 years old then, so that's why the cool hair. 😊 Always loved his sound and style.
Fantastic song from Seal. His music has always been very different, but very intriguing.
Okay, now you *have* to react to Seal and - wait for it - Joni Mitchell. _If I Could_ was a duet they sang on Seal's "Seal" 1994 album. Seal has always contended Mitchell heavily influenced his musical career. Mitchell later returned the favour and had him join her on her remake of _How Do You Stop_ (on her Grammy Award-winning "Turbulent Indigo" album from 1994).
That was Joni Mitchell?!!! Its one of my favourite songs and I followed Seal from the start-yet I never knew this! Is it just me or are the fans of this channel some of the best and most knowledgeable out there?
@@elcorado83 Yes, that's most certainly Joni. I know, right? It took me _years_ to discover this fact too, and to my shame, I was like "That's _not_ Joni Mitchell!" when someone else told me it was her. Liner notes tell the tale!
But yes, the fans on this channel are brilliant. :)
Seal is so underrated. Waiting for You is another great song.
Such a great song! I used to work out to this song in the 90s. Very motivational and encouraging to keep going. Really got me going! :)
"Crazy" is definitely a vibe but it doesn't show off Seal's vocal talent as much as "Don't Cry" (that song gave me chills the 1st time I heard it)
It is so moving I almost can't listen to Don't Cry ........if you ever had a friend in pain ,,,,,
Don't cry is probably my favorite Seal song. It is hauntingly beautiful.
Future Love Paradise is a KILLER song from this album and one my faves from Seal. Amazing!
Seal - A Prayer For the Dying is a MUST listen.
This entire album is brilliant.
Thanks for getting back to Seal! One of my very favorites. Check out other songs by him: Prayer for the Dying, Love's Divine, Get it Together, Human Beings, Bring it On, When a Man is Wrong, Let Me Roll, and my favorite, Tinsel Town. More Seal please y'all!
Something about this song...the vibe it sends out. It's really well done.
Love how she is completely enjoying the song!!👌🏼
This was released when I was a senior in high school. There's something really special (at least for me) about those senior year songs, when you're on the brink of "adulthood," starting to navigate your own life, and you feel almost invincible. There are definitely beats and sounds that you'd hear in a high-energy hip-hop or funk song but paired with such a chill score they become ethereal. Seal's buttery vocals then elevate the song even further, and if you close your eyes and block out your surroundings, it almost feels like you're flying. Another song with the same essence is "World Hold On" by Bob Sinclar from 2006.
If you like this song, I think you will like Prayer for the Dying. I loved this whole album. I think it's called Seal 2. I played it over and over and over again in college. The whole album is amazing.
"Crazy" came out when I was listening only to the most difficult, noisy, "unlistenable" hardcore rock I could get my hands on (there was a War coming on, and I was a Marine in Hawai'i) so I didn't hear it. A couple years later, after terminating with that same mentality, I started work at my hometown University's TV station, and someone there asked for "Crazy" in a part of a video I was editing, and gave me the CD. I remember just sitting back, and privately going "HOLY MOLY, this is just freakin' BEAUTIFUL!" I'm blessed enough by now to be friends with one of his long-standing touring musicians, and he is an outstanding, super-positive person as well. Seal is a magnificent artist whom I will always love.
I love this video, it's soooo 80's!! Seal really does have the most amazing voice and his general 'presence' is unrivalled but I guess when you're 6ft 4ins and have a body like that, you're more than half way there!
The 90's version of EDM. I adore this album.
You guys should review Prayer for the Dying by Seal !
We were so blessed to have grown up with this calibre of singers and videos from back in the day❤ the beats, lyrics and the best thing of all they were dancers 😊 70s/80s rocked hardout...
Yes, Seal is that good ✌️
It's different in a great way! Seal's music is always unique and his vocals are powerful and yet smooth!
When Seal hit the scene, I found him to be so unique. He took me back to the 80s, when being unique and groundbreaking was like an explosion of good things.
Agree on all that!
His first concert movie was mind blowing-but it wasnt shown widely
@@nancysmith8626
🙂 Thank you.
@Jim Crawford
Correct.
@@elcorado83
Yes, a lot of people missed out.
Sometimes when I watch footage of his live performances, I have to remind myself that he's actually singing live and not lip syncing.
I was obsessed with this song and Seal when this first hit MTV, back when they just played music! It always made me happy to hear this song. Seal's voice is just amazing!
This album was produced by Trevor Horn, who was half of The Buggles ("Video Killed The Radio Star"). Horn was also a member of Yes in 1980 and then went on to produce their major album 90125, which spawned the #1 hit "Owner Of A Lonely Heart". As for Seal, this was the first time we ever got to see him and he definitely brought futuristic vibes!
Can’t forget about Art of Noise - Trevor Horn is a genius.
CRAZY is still my all-time favorite song from Seal. Another great hit he put out is called PRAYER FOR THE DYING
Can never get enough of Seal. Every time I hear him I have to go on a binge with him. Loading my playlist, e'en now....
Man I can't describe what it's like watching you guys go down memory lane. This song was one of many great tunes of the time. Truly believe this was a better era for pop culture. Another group blowing up around the same time was Massive Attack. Some of their songs have a similar vibe. As for Seal, the only other song of his I know is his collaboration with Adamski.
Seal is a generous man, mostly every songs is a World in itself, he cares a lot about love & to fix it.
Y'all don't even know how much i LOVE Seal! My mom introduced me to Seal when I was kid in the 90s and there's nothing like his sound!
A couple of remakes that show his amazing versatility. "Manic Depression" his collaboration with the late Jeff Beck, originally a Jimi Hendrix tune. "Fly like an Eagle" a Steve Miller Band original. Seal does a fantastic job with both.
Seal is a very special, unique artist.
This is the first song of his that blew me away. I remember when it came out and it was just so different to anything else out there. Bought the cd single in three parts and the 12". Still as fresh today as it was then.
This is what Seal said about this song. "It was 1990-so many things happened in either 1990 or 1989: the Berlin Wall came down, there was the discovery of fractals and chaos theory, Tiananmen Square. I felt the cycle had reached its apex. I felt the world changing and I felt profound things happening. I felt that we were never gonna survive unless we were a little bit crazy."
When this song came out, there was nothing like it. It was the summer of 1991, and I was living in Phoenix ready to start my junior year in high school. MTV was still big back then, and when this song and video came out, it was like "Woah". This song ushered in the 90's, along with other songs at the time. Brilliant.
Great example of the quality of arrangement and production that became possible around 1990. Irresistible rythme!
one of the best song ever written,its just catches you so unaware,and I'm a big who fan,it's that song you can just keep playing again
,and again,and never ever get bored of it,
He's a Brother from another Planet
I’ve had the pleasure of seeing him in concert & he was amazing ❤🎶
