I got this album when it came out as I've been a fan of Seal since 1991, when his first album came out.
Didn't really care of this at first, probably because there was so much hype about Seal reuniting with Trevor Horne. With those kind of expectations, it's tough to live up to things.
Went back on this album just a few days and found it to be better than I remembered. The BIG songs like you'd expect from Seal mixed with some good, laid-back grooves like "Let Me Roll" and powerful ballads that are dripping with emotion and feel.
A must for Seal fans. If you don't have any Seal albums and you know the radio stuff, start with a Greatest Hits album. And if you don't have it yet, get his 1991 debut. In my opinion, that's still the very best release he's had.

This is the best CD of Seal. I had it before but somebody stole it from me. It is that good.
| Can't go wrong with the one of kind voice of Seal!!!!! | |
Every since his self titled CD released in 1994. I have been a huge unwavering fan of Seal's and this CD definately stood up to my high expectations. I love it and like it just as much as when I first brougt it a few years ago. Just added everything of his that I have to my new ipod touch.
| SEAL + TREVOR = GENIUS!! . . . PLEASE, "GET IT (back) TOGETHER"!! | |
PLEASE, you two, PLEASE!: We miss the GENIUS of the TWO of your joining TOGETHER! In doing so, after all these years, we just want you to make us dance, love, cry, think, hope, dream, and groove again . . . once again, we need to hear and love the GENIUS of the VOICE AND THE VISION of the two of you TOGETHER AGAIN! It's time, you two; especially after all these years! (The best lyrics and visions of our memories come from SEAL I (1990) and SEAL IV (2004).) Thank you, Seal, for sharing the visions of your genius, strength, and love; thank you, Mr. Horn, for giving us a reason to groove - your vision of musical perfection is incomparable! (We own "Produced by Trevor Horn - 25 yrs of Pop." (DVD), which celebrates the ultimate LOVE of your GENIUS.) Together, your music is irresistible(!). Therefore, gentlemen, please get back together to give us MORE!)

Got this album when it first came out. Feel it's a pretty good mix of the "old school" stuff from the first two records. Not as dance-oriented as the first, but not as pop as the second. It's somewhere in the middle.
This production isn't too much, so his amazing vocals really stand out. Writing it pretty strong. Not his best, but not bad. I'm holding him to a pretty high level, by the way. This would be a 5-star record for most people.
This is one of the better Seal records. I recommend it.
