System

It is only a very few time such a good person ever comes across in the music world. For me it is Seal, a genuinely soul singer that captures all the emotions of who I am and my journeys in life. His previous albums somehow have coincidently always have come at a time when I needed them. Miraculously, this new album is a rebirth of who he is. It is his path found again from the clouded life he was walking in. So much energy, so much force, so much love.

I do not buy albums, I have only bought 2 albums in my life. The first one I ever wanted to buy was from the movie "A goofy movie" but my mom never gave me the money to buy it as a kid :(. The albums I have bought are Nas and Seal.

Seal's own personal journey's and triumph with his music and career reflect alot on my character. Minus Heidi Klum ofcourse, well one day I shall get my Heidi Klum one day as well. Until then..heck even forever, Single and Handsome is the way to be! She has also sung a song with Seal on this album called "wedding day". To my surprise she has an excellent voice and the contrast with seal's voice is just heaven for your ears.

One of the things I always love looking at is the album cover. I ripped open the package and read the album cover at the mall right away. Unlike conventional artist who give shout outs and have 100000 words with nick names, Seal has little bits of poetry. It got me choked up, I haven't been choked up in a long time, I almost forgot how that felt. Surreal.

Excerpt:

To my listeners


If you can't find your place in this world, your life's important to me. Feels like every sunday's just a day in the week. If you're lonely and you feel like reaching up might break you down, don't go under...out time is now.


No condition is permanent (aside: also one of the teachings of buddhism)

Born into dysfunction of a vicious cycle. Daydreaming to the point of realization, married with childrean, breaking one system and creating another.
