Kiss from a rose (Seal Cover)
Kiss from a rose (Seal Cover) Lyrics & Chords
This one is my wife’s pick. One of Seal’s most popular songs for which he won 3 grammys in 1996. I like this because the tune was quite unique as compared to the other songs during that time period. Not to mention Seal’s vocals. Hope all of you enjoy this one.
Lyrics:
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.
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.
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
Now that your rose is in bloom.
A light hits the gloom on the gray,
I’ve been kissed by a rose on the gray,
I’ve been kissed by a rose
I’ve been kissed by a rose on the gray,
….And if I should fall along the way
I’ve been kissed by a rose
….been kissed by a rose on the gray.
There is so much a man can tell you,
So much he can say.
You remain
My power, my pleasure, my pain.
To me you’re like a growing addiction that I can’t deny, yeah
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.
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
Now that your rose is in bloom,
A light hits the gloom on the gray.
Yes 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
Now that your rose is in bloom,
A light hits the gloom on the gray.

Lovely pick! Sounded wonderful. The “I’ve been kissed by a rose” repeat parts 2:25 onwards were just awesome.
Amit Jain said
Love remained……
Oh that falsetto there on Love…smooth as Silk George :) Again, great Harmony,could see how much work has gone there in that regards… Pleasure to listen :) I dunno, sm how I felt that the track was not of the highest standard… Well thats just my understanding… For me this Song was all about your Harmony Setup, just loved it :)
Pleasure George :)

Was just re-listening it, a very very tough one George :) Great work… may be that in the line “That when it snows”… the ‘Snows’ part goes on a still lower note than what you have sung… That drooping kinda effect from ‘know’ to ‘Snows’… I hope I make sense ;) ;) haha… But chuck all that, lovely is the word :)

Nandita and Amit – Thanks for the feedback. Glad you guys liked it. Amit – Thanks for the detailed feedback. The track had some harmonies and I overlayed it with some more. As for the “When it snows”, the note on snows is as per the original from what I remember…But yes I could have done it a note lower and it would still have made sense.

Nice one, love Seal, but i can’t sing seal songs that well. I don’t like the backing track that much, but very well done… tough tough song this one, but as usual you do it nicely with some nice harmonies.
Sing, like you’re winning

George – well sung! A nice, different and tough song, i thought.A bit of Indian touch in some of the interludes ?! , maybe its just me. 02:50 was espec awesome. Good job, George and another 5!

Excellent transition between the falsettos and real. That’s the first thing that comes to mind. I think that’s one of the key features of the original. Great work!
Did you do all the harmonies too?

George Kuruvilla
said
Thank you all once again for the feedback….
Radhika – Not sure what you meant be “Indian”. Was it the accent or you felt some improv had an indian touch?
Bala – The track already had harmonies. I overlayed it with some more.
Thanks for listening!!

you are outstanding…however a few thoughts…. you have the wisdom and technology to improve… perhaps you could make your voice sound a lil more thicker….also the opening part of the backing track is abysmal….I am sure these can be corrected and re-recorded… keep singing …you are the best…!!!

Terrific singing, George!! Happens to be a number I’m really familiar with unlike many of your other covers…
A drug that’s the high ….sounds a bit diff but I think that has something to do with the track. That apart, all’s good.
Agree with you, Seal’s vocals are amazing….but yours aren’t bad either :)
Wonderful job!
George Kuruvilla
said
Bodhi, Satish, Vaishali – Thanks a ton for your feedback.
Vaishali – Its funny you caught that part (drug thats a high…). I improvised a bit there since the chords in the track seemed a lil different (as you rightly caught). Thanks again!!!

OOH! thought I had left a comment on this, when I listened to it way back then.
It’s quite a tough song (or so I think), and absolutely catchy vocals, but have a feeling you will hit it out of the park if were to do it today.
Liked, nonetheless!
