Those who are familiar with “Kiss from a Rose” know that the lyrics are highly-symbolic and not the easiest to decipher. As such, widely-accepted interpretations of this song vary and are for the most part unrelated. This is partially because the writer and songwriter himself, Seal, has refused to state outright the inspiration behind this song. Instead of explaining the true meaning of the lyrics, he has constantly ambiguously stated that it is based on “some kind of relationship”. In fact for years he forsook “Kiss from a Rose” altogether. This may be due the fact that he wrote it during the pre-fame era of his life, when he was living in London under apparently economically-challenging conditions. As such, he encourages listeners to derive their own meaning from the track. In other words, he believes that what the listener perceives through the lyrics is more-important than what he was actually referring to when he wrote them. What do we think about this song? Judging from the profoundness of the song’s lyrics, we have no doubts that the song was indeed inspired by a relationship Seal was in. Whoever he was in this relationship with must have meant so much to him at the time he wrote this song. Why do we say so? The sheer depth and overpowering nature of the lyrics show how special this person was to him. And what really does Seal mean when he says the following: “I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray”? We all know that roses naturally grow and blossom in warm climates. It will therefore be a very rare sight to see one exist on the gray (winter/snow/frozen wilderness). Seal is apparently comparing the rarity of a blossoming rose in the gray and it’s ability to kiss to his lover. Such is how extraordinarily special she is to him. “Kiss from a Rose” Seal authored this track all by himself. He penned this tune in 1987, many years before it finally came out in July producers Richard Lowe and Trevor Horn were responsible for the production of “Kiss from a Rose”. This classic appeared on Seal’s 2nd studio album Seal (Seal II).

28 August 2019, 17:05 Picture: Warner Bros/YouTube Seal burst onto the scene in 1990 after providing vocals for the Adamski dance track 'Killer', but a few years later he became the king of '90s power ballads with his classic 'Kiss from a Rose'.
