One of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen. We had a great time here albeit brief. The mayor was particularly impressive, a single mother of two and very progressively minded. She is pretty much the main reason we were able to play in such a pristine and historical place. Meersburg is such a unique part of Germany because you can see both Austria and Switzerland when looking out to sea. I would love to come back with my family some day.

Dear Seal, let me write you some of my personal feelings I have to your expressions..your music, photos, your voice, words of your songs….everything is so smooth, mysterious and dolorous at once, something deep and impassioned is in everything you did.
Hello
All i want is the TOGETHERLAND recordings.On seal’s old website it had samples of the TOGETHERLAND’S grooves i can’t believe those recordings were never released. BTW i just saw dude at the ryman in nashville on 5-21-07 and they blew the roof off the sucka. Any way baddest cat out there and i know i don’t have to tell you guys.Waiting for the next CD
Greetings from New York! Saw you this spring at Westbury, you were amazing as always. For what its worth, I didn’t care for the venue, though — the crowd out there was a little too laid back, no dancing. Please don’t give up on NY when you tour for the new album, I know your fans in Europe more effusive, but we love you here!
Dear Seal, just a few things:
when are you coming to perform Mexico city?
When is your next CD gonna be released?
I love everything you do musically and you have in my opinion one of the most beautiful voices in earth!
David
Mexico city
You are extraordinary. Any plans to come to Montreal or New York anytime soon?
Hi Lydie,
Big hug right back:O)
Love ya, Janet
Cannot wait to hear the new cd, i hope you post on the blog soon for some new information about what you doing now
stuck on 56 for awhile.. so let me post haha.. HUGS everyone .. hope your day is going smashing!!!
Does Seal have an official myspace page? The one i found appears to be a fan. Thanks.
I came across the link to Seal’s photo gallery with the cool Touch remix playing in the background. Here is the link: http://www.seal.com/seal/journal/slides/expose.html
I love that version of Touch;O)
Peace, Janet
Segun, Kilo n shele? Bawo ni. Man.. when you go bless awon boys with something fresh? I’m getting inundated by regurgitated mess out here. Man it must be really nice to have a bunch of people wait on you. Gifted punk. lol. Hope all is well with you and fam. Stay up brother.

I heard about the new CD comming out in September. I already have it on order. I hope this means that you will be doing another tour here in America soon. This time I wont miss it. Even if I have to camp out in front of the ticket place over night. I’ll make sure I have enough formy whole family to come and see you live. I can’t imaginethe energy you put off when you’re on stage. Thank you so much for all of the beautiful music you have given us.
doing some research for a class and am trying to find some info about a sample used in the extended version of Crazy. The sample is the text “Behold here comes the dreamer. What will become of his dreams?” I know it was originally said in the Bible, but can anyone let me know where the sample used on the recording comes from? Eurojunk@comcast.net.
Thanks!!
Just ordered “System” from Amazon. Thanks, Janet, for the information. Peace. Michele
Hello i have seen on amazon that your new album ‘SYSTEM’ is going to be released at 25 september 2007,
but is it going to be at the netherlands on that date?,
and is there going to be a single from one of your new numbers before the CD is released?. i cannot wait to hear it.
I was at your concert in Meersburg
THANK YOU!
Hi Singer,
Wow, Stevie Wonder is the best. I bet that you really enjoyed it. Stevie and Seal’s music, what a cool combination! I like Sir Duke, Ma Cherie Amore, Superstition, and You Are the Sunshine of My Life…the man is brilliant!
Jeez, lunch breaks are getting better and better;O)
Peace, Janet
…hey, gang! I work across the lawn from CAA and Stevie Wonder just played an impromptu lunchtime free concert for us all (see defamer.com for details). I am sharing this here BECAUSE, when I arrived at the show, I was delighted to hear “Let Me Roll” as the pre-show music. Post show music? “Waiting For You.” So! Seal is a CAA client, yes? New record coming… Might Seal be due to do one of these amazing shows soon? PLEASE?
My comment is awaiting moderation?
What does this mean? Is this something new?
I pre-ordered today!!!
IF ONLY this was happening before Sept 23rd. We are doing to Disneyland and we drive…it would be so SWEET to have some new music to listen too…
I just told Dean about the release date..he is totally EXCITED!!!
we are intersting to invite Seal for unveiling vip concert hall with capacity of 250 seats. is it possible?
i just wanted to say i have had the seal 4 cd for months because of love divine and found the song that has renewed my faith in the art of song writing..” touch” is one of the most beautifully written songs ever. Seal you have a beautiful soul it comes through
in your music, thanks for sharing your light with the world. Doug
Seal
Any chance of coming to OZ? Your family would love it too!
Thanks for the promp about amazon is will spread the word

Great news for Seal’s fans!
Bill Hamel will be remixing Seal’s next single from the upcoming “System” album. Kudos to Bill Hamel, who has already received a grammy nomination for remixing Seal’s “Get it Together” in 2004.
Bill is very excited about the System album, and the fact that it is being produced by Stuart Price.
Bill Hamel:
“Seal’s whole album was produced by Stuart Price!! The guy that produced
Madonna as well as New Order’s last albums… He does dance remixes under
the name Jacque Le Conte and Thin White Duke… he’s amazing. He has an indy
rock electronic band called Zoot Woman. They are wicked. Look up Zoot Woman
on iTunes. ( or here http://www.myspace.com/zootwoman )He did this remix
of The Killers “Mr. Brightside” that to this day nothing holds a candle to
it. It crushed the original song.
Warner’s told me this whole album is dance!!! Seal doing a dance record,
that’s very big deal. Warner’s said everyone’s talking about dance music
making a big big comeback!!!”
Good Luck Seal, Stu, and Bill
Hello Pisco, from Italy:) Thank you Your BIG HELLO:) Big embrace for You:) With Love, Zita

Dear Seal,
Wicked brilliant show in Chicago Saturday night. Thank you (and the Creator) for your generous spirit. I am sorry I did not introduce myself to you. I was the video camera guy with the glasses. Kept not wanting to bother you, whilst still getting the shots I was hired to get. Footage looks great and I do hope you did not feel uncomfortable with our shooting, especially in the basement photo sessions.
You take care, brother….

Your music always guides me through the good days and the bad ones. Thank you for the gift you share with all of us.
A big hello to everyone registered to this site. I’m from Italy.
Big kisses, Pisco.
Dear Seal and YourTeam! The website is very high level! Congratulations! The photos are wonderful and truthful
too… With Love: Zita, from Budapest
Seal, saw you in Dallas. You are an emisary of LIGHT and LOVE to a world in such need. Keep flying like an eagle. Love is all there is! You are awesome! Light and Love to you and the world. Light & Love, Kasba
please, respond, you have no idea how much I am moved by your musich
How can I email my comments that will reach Seal. You have no idea how much I love your musich
Hi Seal,
Just wanted to say I am watching your Paris DVD and it is the best concert DVD I have seen. It really feels like I am there – you can’t get any better than that! I hope you can make it to Athens at some point. It would be great to see you in concert there.
Great website and keep up all your great work.
God bless,
gamikos
You are welcome Paul. If you think about the lyrics, then each person may come up with a different “latest craze”. From things that teens do when coming of age, to experimenting with alcohol and drugs, to buying pet rocks and mood rings. Although the latter 2 is harmless and wouldn’t warrant telling father: “I am doing something that frankly, I don’t think that I should”. But it’s the “Latest Craze”. Great Song, and I love the music to it.
Peace, Love, and Rock N’ Roll, Janet
Dear Mr. Seal,
Just want to say that I love your music and web page. I have a question and I don’t know if it’s okay to ask, but here it goes…. Not too long ago, approximately 1 month ago. I logged into Ticket Master in San Diego, CA and noticed you were scheduled to appear in concert I believe, mid or late Sept of 2007. I have not heard or seen anything since then (June). Will you be performing anytime soon in San Diego, CA? I sure do hope so. I’ve never seen you in concert and I do hope to see you soon!
Thank you kindly,
?~Zee
Lol…Janet, thank you. Obviously I was overthinking the song. I knew what the “Latest Craze” meant, but I was under the impression he was singing about something specific. Anyway, again, thank you.
Paul
May Peace and Love guide all of us through the years. Seal, may you be blessed always.
Hi Peedub,
The “Latest Craze” doin’ what everyone else is doin’…the latest fad. Whether it is considered taboo, or not.
Welcome, Janet
i am a nigerian and a die had fan of seal.i have always loved him and wish one day i will see him in person.he has this soul catching voice.as far as i am concerned,he is the best vocal in the world.i sing myself but seal if you are reading this you are my mentor in music and i am left handed.at the moment iam in london but i didn;t have enough money to by ticket for the tower of london festival but i am very optimistic that the next time you are on tour i will be able to come and watch you live.olumide,if only you are reading this the only wish is that i talk to you which i know might be impossible.but anyway i will drop my number here and hope for a miracle.keep the good work and can’t wait for your next album.you have got a wonderful wife and you guys are just great.i wish you and your family all the best.i can tell that you are a good ambassador of nigeria and i feel very proud to associate myself with you.hope one day i see you.but till then ciao.

Seal, you are surrounded by beauty. Man, it’s enough to make me green with envy. This is not so much a comment as it is a question. At the risk of being embarrassed, I must ask you or anyone who might read this post, what is the song “Latest Craze” about? I just can’t get my head around it, even now. I know you leave your lyrics to interpretation, but help a brotha out…lol. I had this insane idea you were singing about something sort of taboo, but I’m probably, no, I’m sure I’m wrong…lol. Anyway, to evryone in the forum, hello, and to you sir, thank you for the wonderful music. Peace.
Seal love to you and yours take care luv sue xx
Hello,
We attended your concert in Montreux on Saturday night. Thanks for the music, for truly SHARING a moment with us (I get to see many artists “doing their duty” on stage at the Montreux Jazz Festival!). We hugely enjoyed it and hope to meet you there again next year: I see you are fond of photos, we’ll show you the best spots!
Hi Seal, I just read online about how you have to file for bankruptcy due to losing some lawsuits!?! I’m so sorry to hear about that man, tough blow. Fingers crossed for the new album, your fans are behind you 100% and we know you will pull through. Will keep you and your family in our thoughts.
Hi Seal, your concert in Lucerne was my first opportunity to see you live on stage. It was amazing, wow, what power and charisma you have, and what a voice! I loved your personal touch you gave to the youngsters and to that beautiful woman in her wheelchair (I was standing right there) while singing “Kiss from a rose”. It shows your great heart and that you care. I only missed your family-band, especially Chris. But at least I saw Eric. Thanks for singing “whirlpool”, I love that song. I can’t wait to hear your new CD to come in october. Wish you and your family love and peace.
eva
hi seal!

Meersburg is one of the most amazing spots in Germany. One of my uncle’s from my Dad’s side of my family lives in Oberuhldingen, which is about 10 minutes north of Meersburg. And I grew up not even 1 1/2 hours from Meersburg in a small town called Betlinshausen. Did you have a chance to go to the Carpetmuseum in Meersburg? If not, you really should.
Many times on our yearly visits to my uncle, did we go down to Meersburg hiking in the Forests and Mountains as children. I always thought it was like a fairytale area to me and I have many fond memories of this town.
Seal, it would be wonderful for you and Heidi to take your children there. Make sure you also go and visit the Puppenmuseum in Immenstaad (a doll museum…Leni would love their collection). Also, the Ravensburger Spieleland is just around the corner. It is a Playland with unbelievable buildings and house tall figurines. I took my son there back in the early 90s and he was mesmerized by the view of this incredible area.
Thanks for sharing the pictures and bringing back the most beautiful childhood memories of mine.
Love, Love, love,
Sylvia
God bless you Seal.
And God bless the perfect circle you sing to. I’ve seen it to. It’s really real, we’re really here, this is really it.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your words.
Hi Seal,
thank u very much for a really great evening in Meersburg. It was fantastic, you shared this with us. Meersburg got wild. I live only 4 km far away from Meersburg and I can confirm it’s one of the nicest places to live. I always love to return and enjoy “my” Lake. If u ever like to come back you’re welcome. It’s also nice to spend some days in autumn or winter, where less tourists there. It’s more quite but also very precious for me as the light of day brings a special atmosphere on Lake, castle and the other buildings. Love your photos. Good impressions of the charm of Meersburg.
Seal,
My entertainment company is planning a concert in Lagos. Big concert. We want only the best to be there. Please ask your manager to get in touch with me at azizauko@gmail.com. You are so awesome. I am a great fan. Can’t wait for your new album to hit the stores.
and I see how fantasy novels are created.. that castle pic can take me away to a enchanted place underneath those trees just as the evening falls…
beautiful pics.. thanks for sparking my imagination
Seal..
What’s the word about SYSTEM?
Dean was all set for Fall…and if you know anything about a high functioning autistic kid..they NEVER forget dates…haaaahaaaa…
But there have been some rumblings that you said Summer of 2008…
Any chance you could clear this up..and so that I can tell Dean.
THANKS!
Laura
Sonoma CA
ps-Dean and I LOVE, LOVE all your cool pictures.
Hello there from Madrid(Spain).
Well, I’m one of the spanish minority who went to see you live in Vimeiro(Portugal). The long travel from Madrid was absolutly worth.
I took some interesting pics and videos which I’ll keep as a treasure.
Hope to see you live next time in Spain touring your uncoming album.
Thanks for your transmission of energy during your concert.
Greets and best!!
pd.- one question, what about Chris Bruce??…I missed him.
God bless you Seal !!!
Thank you for your beautiful music and srong words. I am one of the fortunate portuguese that had the chance to see your show at Vimeiro last saturday.
I am still overwhelmed by the light that you shine when you sing! It’s amazing, you absolutely glow when you are on stage.
I hope you come back to Portugal so I can bring my kids to your show, they are still too small for a live show, but are already big fans.
All the best for you and your family
Nice shot, Seal. Pretty cool composition and it does look like a relaxing place to visit. A Quiet place to dream…
I also want to thank you for the great music from your soul. I´m a proud portuguese, so glad i´ve had the privilege of seeing you in Vimeiro concert.
Keep on going.

Dear SEAL, really that pretty photo!
My name is Flàvia, I am Brazilian, I am on holiday in Paris and I was likely to see the concert in London 06/07. I would like to know if you received a card that I wrote and ask somebody from production to have the kindness to give you.
I tried to arrive more meadows for a photograph after the concert but it was impossible to have access to the backstage. The security policies were very strength but I tried anyway, because you never made concert in Brazil and it was my great chance get to know personally.
I have excellent photos from this show in London that I can send you or your production. They have technical quality so you could also it put them in your blog or just keeps them as personal archive.
I know that you must have many photos however if it interest you to have those photos, please let me know so I can send to you or someone from your production.
I admire you very well and I am thankful for the many pretty songs you have written!
Brazil loves you and waits to see you soon.
I wish you happiness, peace, and much love for you and your family.
In one word: Beautiful

We are very graet fans from you and your music and we are waiting for your new CD ! Do you plan a concert near cologne ? My husband is a great fan from you too and he works as a top soundengineer in the “Köln Arena”.

Much greatings from familiy Häck aus Bergisch Gladbach…..love, peace and family, Brigitta
Good fotos from germany SEAL,
how is it going with your new CD
after 4 good CD’s from you i want too
hear the 5th, but i understand that maybe you think the cd is not ready or complete and you want to make it perfect, just like the other 4,
i dont mind that you need 4 years to make a cd because thats always better than make it in 2 years or less like much other artist do and then you can hear the diffrence from a cd thats taking longer time too make, thats one of the many reasons your cd’s are good.
Seal, This shot is beautiful. Very nice angle, and I love the shimmer of light on the water. Please consider filling a gallery with your work. The response would be amazing. I am sure of it!
Peace, Janet
