It actually bothers me that it's associated with a movie. One of the best songs ever made, and it's connected to a mediocre (at best) Batman movie. Seal is an absolute treasure and deserves better than being associated with a middling superhero movie.
Indeed but I am just noticing that Batman is in the video wish it wasn’t so… finding this out now being born in 89 and hearing this thousand times loving it every time takes from The song dammit
The funny thing is... it wouldn't have being so hard to have a batman storyline/movie that fit in with the premise of the song... Like i have this idea that the storyline could have been perfectly match if it was a scenario were batman have fought but also fallen for poison ivy instead. Like him in a serious way having emotions for her after have deprived himself from those feelings ( something canonically batman usually does) only to suddenly have them being open for and because her, and also have him face with the choice on what to do with the villainess, the consequences of her presence in his life. And something like that would have also had many opportunites to take ideas from the song, as by example in the part were it says : "now that your rose its in bloom" - "a light hits the gloom on the gray" ( in such a storyline, making the analogy of ivy having being this presence and intervention that shine a light for batman to look within himself and bring to his attention that the morally gray path he also walks doesn't difers much from hers and that he often ignores, and to have him deal with his morals and complexity on fighting her or something. Wouldn't have been such a bad idea ) ...... and it would have make much more sense in that way, on top of making the song fit perfectly 🤔............ not to mention have being made the song even more epic ☝️😌
Listened to this masterpiece when I was 8, watching the end credits of Batman Forever. 30 years later, it still remains one of the most renowned love songs ever made. Masterfully done, Seal! Masterfully done!!
Saw this in theaters back in HS when it first came out. Now that I'm grown and can smile because of experience I had no idea this was a masterpiece. On rare occasions, the soundtrack of the movie and the era when it came out almost made me feel like I was directly involved. Timeless.
Just got to use your feelings, man stop thinking about it. Logically once you use a little emotional realize exactly how this relates look at the images. It’s not that hard to understand. Even heroes fall in love.
When I was in elementary school we did a ribbon dance to this song and the concert was Batman themed with Poison Ivy being a huge part. I had no idea why
That song rips through my heart like a whirlwind, gives me a deep longing to be loved like that and it wouldn’t hurt for it to be the man who sings it!! He is sooooo handsome!!! One of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard, ever
Ba-da-da, ba-da-da-da-da-da, ba-da-da Ba-da-da, ba-da-da-da-da-da, ba-da-da There used to be a graying tower alone on the sea You became the light on the dark side of me Love remained a drug that′s the high and not the pill But did you know that when it snows My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen? Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray Ooh, the more I get of you, the stranger it feels, yeah And now that your rose is in bloom A light hits the gloom on the gray Ba-da-da, ba-da-da-da-da-da, ba-da-da There is so much a man can tell you, so much he can say You remain my power, my pleasure, my pain, baby To me you're like a growing addiction that I can′t deny Won't you tell me, is that healthy, baby? But did you know that when it snows My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen?
Started 2025 out by watching this movie. I'm still in love with it. This is my favorite batman movie. The theme, costume, intro and the ending running scene. This movie was my childhood! Love you val kilmer!!
Sitting at my dining room table tonight, drinking champagne sitting alone. And for some strange reason, this song popped in my head and it’s all I wanted to listen to. September 2024.
Wasn't that the scene from when Riddler put Bruce in the machine and Drew Berrymore switched out the green vial? Then brice saw the bay amd it downloaded on the vial that drew then switched back out?
Just finished watching the Vertex Effects podcast detailing this great song. Appreciate this greatness, the harmonies at the start so talented, 16 track/8 vocal harmonies per track... crazy work ethic in those days.
I heard this song several years ago but I didn't think much about it, I had other ideas in my head. Last Sunday I had a memorable day where I saw people very dear to me. It was a truly wonderful day, especially the friendship with a very special friend. When I got into the car to go home I turned on the radio and there was this song. And it was the representation of what I had experienced up to that moment. I've been listening to it for four days. It has entered my soul. It's wonderful!
Just watched Seal performing this acoustic and damn his voice is a God given blessing cause he still sounds good. I had to come rewatch the og and it's still a perfect love ballad 😢
I was like 7 when this came out and KNEW this was a banger… As a 37 yr old man… I realize this song is just beautiful… Moves me to tears type beautiful… Bravo 👏🏾
The more I hear Seal… the more I remember my best friend. We were just tucking into this.. the he died. Huge marker even more empowering music. Thanks.
@@timothymerrylees7590But as a 34 year old life long DC fan, it is absolutely a terrible movie. Watched it for the first time in like 15 years and I just couldn't believe I used to love it as a kid.

I remember hearing it in the theater for the first time. Hit on TRL. Stop reminding me I'm getting old. I was 8 when this came out.

This is talent.
Man the 90s were so magical I really wish as a teenager I knew what I was experiencing.
1990s had great cinema and music
Indeed! we only realize it after it's passed; sad! the 80s and the 90s were, IMO the best decades of my generation
SAME. 90s were amazing.
Looking back,, This Batman Forever was so tragic because of this song.
I was about 8 years old when this song came out and even then I loved it same with Michael Jackson History the early '90s was my childhood .
The 90s just hit different...
❤❤❤❤❤❤🫂❤️🔥
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Last great age. Sad, to be honest.
This, my heart will go on. A lot of legendary songs in the 90’s.
The last decade for real music 😢
Seal has an incredible voice. Raw and powerful. This song is a masterpiece.
Good song and voice - but what a dreadful video.🥲

TRUE
The prettiest song to come out of the 90’s. 🌹
@@KPD017 with other groups like Boyz II Men, I think that's a bold statement, the 90's was a great time for music!
I don't know... I think Madonna and Babyface - Take a Bow , can give it some competition.
@ true true! I used to play that on repeat. ❤️
The 1990’s was truly a special decade!!!!!
Sure right abt that!❤
I was born in that decade.
It was ok
wow
VHS rentals
To be a teen in the 90s…Truly grateful for such a special time that I got to grow up in. Great music, movies and so forth. ❤❤❤
absolute truth...I'm guessing you're in you're early 40's like myself lol it was a great time
@ Correct, lol. Great time for sure.
I was 12 then, now I'm 42, how time flies😢 such a beautiful song❤
1982 gang checked in❤❤❤

Same here 😌
i was 3 now i'm almost 33
Me too and I was in love with Val Kilmer ❤
Ah yes.... THIS was and is what Batman needed all along.
i bet there were jokes how this had nothing to do with film itself randomly

Me too. Love it!
Go listen to the Jeris Johnson cover. Really good as well!
Yes❤
Me too love the song so much
@@johnhernandez4734 So, I listened to the cover…and fell in love. Thank you for the rec!
It's not even a song, it's a friggin' masterpiece of art or whatever you need to call it.
"Now that your rose is in bloom, a light hits the gloom on the grave,"
Can you explain this lyric to a person who doesn't understand this masterpiece?
Happy New Year Everybody!!!
HAPPY NEW YEAR FOR YOU TOO MY FRIEND
Happy New Year !! 🎉
Finally an official video for this amazing song from Batman Forever
Directed by Joel Schumacher (R.I.P.)
This video has been out as long as the movie, WTF. Lol
It's been there ages ago😂
Bout time
Huh? This came out when the song did....
Masterpiece. One of the greatest songs of the 90's
Listened to this masterpiece when I was 8, watching the end credits of Batman Forever. 30 years later, it still remains one of the most renowned love songs ever made. Masterfully done, Seal! Masterfully done!!
Batman's face at 2:55 always cracked me up.
Facts! Everytime😂
I’ve laughed at this my entire life 😂😂
😂😂
Haha so funny
This song really is a timeless song. It’s great in any generation and still feels fresh
seal is one of a kind. one of the best songs of the 90's.
Good Lord is this the best song of humanity
I love this song silk to the soul. But there are better
I’ll ALWAYS be in awe of this song and its composition.
Seeing this unlocked so many memories from my childhood. 90s was a great time
Still a top song all these years , this song stood the test of time
literally all these years the song is like 29 years old it came out in 1995. Looks like you discovered it years later.
Batman Forever and Seal bring back the memories 😍
This man's voice is awesome.
his voice is magical
Remember when we were going to get this song tattooed? I still think it's a strong contender. I love you, Owen.
One of the greatest songs ever recorded. ❤
I remember keeping this CD on repeat when I had the Batman Forever soundtrack. Timeless song and the self-titled album was amazing
We've sang it a thousand times together in my mind.
This is the only mainstream music song I know that has an oboe featured so prominently, and thank you for that ❤️
Saw this in theaters back in HS when it first came out. Now that I'm grown and can smile because of experience I had no idea this was a masterpiece. On rare occasions, the soundtrack of the movie and the era when it came out almost made me feel like I was directly involved. Timeless.
30 years of being a masterpiece and 30 years of us still not knowing how this song relates to batman
I think its just a classic that was on the soundtrack
Just got to use your feelings, man stop thinking about it. Logically once you use a little emotional realize exactly how this relates look at the images. It’s not that hard to understand. Even heroes fall in love.
Replace "Baby!" with "Batman". Done.
The director really liked the song, and that's the story
When I was in elementary school we did a ribbon dance to this song and the concert was Batman themed with Poison Ivy being a huge part. I had no idea why
Those multiple voices give me chills even if I'm listening to it for thousandth time.
Val Kilmer as Batman,
Seal with this song, gosh!
Perfect!!! 🙌
Absolutely agree!! 🙌🏼

Do your research on the meaning of most of his songs. Do your research on him.
Pay close attention to this song’s lyrics. This is more trash talk than most songs ever written.
This just brings up so many childhood memories... oh nostalgia
1:49 this scene always pops up in my mind when I here this song. Even though it’s been almost 30 years , it’s still so crystal clear ….
How is this not over a million?
It only recently became the official video. The video before had hundreds of millions of views
Batman Forever. I'm a 90's kid.
It's rare when the movie and the soundtrack are both 🔥🔥🔥🔥
One of the best soundtracks ever made
That song rips through my heart like a whirlwind, gives me a deep longing to be loved like that and it wouldn’t hurt for it to be the man who sings it!! He is sooooo handsome!!! One of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard, ever
Back then they made our childhood cartoons come to life and actually made them with so much love. Thanks for these 90s gems!
This song still lives on after 30 years!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
90s were wild
Ba-da-da, ba-da-da-da-da-da, ba-da-da
Ba-da-da, ba-da-da-da-da-da, ba-da-da
There used to be a graying tower alone on the sea
You became the light on the dark side of me
Love remained a drug that′s the high and not the pill
But did you know that when it snows
My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen?
Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray
Ooh, the more I get of you, the stranger it feels, yeah
And now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the gray
Ba-da-da, ba-da-da-da-da-da, ba-da-da
There is so much a man can tell you, so much he can say
You remain my power, my pleasure, my pain, baby
To me you're like a growing addiction that I can′t deny
Won't you tell me, is that healthy, baby?
But did you know that when it snows
My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen?
Started 2025 out by watching this movie. I'm still in love with it. This is my favorite batman movie. The theme, costume, intro and the ending running scene. This movie was my childhood! Love you val kilmer!!
I had no idea it won that many Grammy awards. 30 years later, and it still holds up. Might be one of the best leading movie soundtracks around. 🌹 🦭

Watched this 1 million times as a kid on MTV. It would play so much and I’d be there everytime singing along ❤❤❤❤

Really brilliant and unforgettable song.
Before the Dark Knight and Batman Begins, there were these movies. I remember watching them with my dad.
1:06 This deleted scene of the giant bat made its way into the music video
Wasn't that the scene from when Riddler put Bruce in the machine and Drew Berrymore switched out the green vial? Then brice saw the bay amd it downloaded on the vial that drew then switched back out?

Im 37, I love Batman Forever and this song transport me to that era beautifully
Thank you! I'm about to turn 40, and I still feel like that 10-year-old who first laid eyes on this film. I will defend it to the ground.
I turn 38 in 3 months and this song makes me nostalgic of the 90s.

A true legend Seal, that's who you are, everything about this Song is pure work of a genius thanks Seal
Every time i hear this song i have Goosebumps and this is one of my all time classics
Childhood memories, still remember all the lyrics from day 1. An international classic. Thank you SEAL. Thank you Batman Forever.🙏🙏
