Seal just release a new album and reports believed that his seventh studio effort was one of his most emotional records yet.
According to a report by Stuff Entertainment, Seal's producer Trevor Horn revealed in an interview how Seal managed to bring heavy emotions on his songs and how he got inspired to write his first record in five years.
"His voice is so unique, I got excited straight away," Horn said. "None of that melisma, no vocal gymnastics, just real feeling. I thought, 'I can make records with that.'"
Having almost the same situation with Seal in terms of relationship, the producer revealed how he heard the first song of the new album "Daylight Saving" and got attached to it, claiming how he related to the song.
"It was one of the saddest songs I'd ever heard," Horn revealed. "I've been through a lot over the past eight years, and I could relate to the feeling of being on your own."
Furthermore, an article from Euro News revealed how the new Seal album involves a lot of "deep emotions," heartbreak and healing.
You know some people, when something is weighing on them, if they have an issue or something that's internal, they go and see a therapist or a psychiatrist or a shrink of some sort," Seal said about the content of his new album. "I write songs and that right there is a very cathartic experience. But there are caveats. So long as you are telling the truth, it only works, it's only cathartic if you are brutally honest with yourself first and foremost."
In addition to that, he revealed in an interview how he tried to capture the right emotions on the record.
"I felt that it was important that I capture that dynamic on the record, so, of course, it's a reality, that's how we feel sometimes, you know, when we've been in something that hasn't quite worked out or there was so much love and now there's a vacuum where that love was," he said. "It has kind of left behind an empty space. You feel quite damning."
The new album from Seal is currently available and could be seen in his official website.
