Batman Forever. Nostalgia of childhood.

[ScilentFox]

This song played at the end of a Batman movie. The 90’s were wild.

[HighwayRamos]

Still the best "BaaAAAYYBBEEeeyah in pop history.

Hi! Who else is listening to this in February, 2024??
I cannot believe that Seal hates this, his own song! He said that the song doesn't work; although he admitted that the producer did an amazing job. Seal, this is not only your best song, but it's one of the top 10, and it's a romantic classic that never gets old! It's been 30 years since your song's release!! It should be released for a third time; it's one of the best songs ever! ❤🎉
P. S. I know that Seal will never read this. 😔 Bummer.

This song is forever a part of the human experience....

You know how some songs are like "summer songs" or "winter songs" ...this is a song that sounds good in ALL seasons. I can picture a walk through a nice fresh snow on the ground, or a spring garden, or leaves falling, or on the beach in the summer. Timeless.

[PeteCannellasSound]

This is one of the greatest songs ever made. It’s such a good song.

Rest in peace Mr. Joel Schumacher. For those who don't know, he was the one who directed this movie, but also insisted this song to be featured in this movie, hence giving Seal and his marvelous talent to the world. Thank you for making sure that this beautiful song would be shared to us worldwide.

This song will always mean so much to me. My dad passed away unexpectedly when I was 17 and he listened to this song constantly. He used it in his shows and we played it at his funeral. I love you daddy, RIP👼🏽

I am still in awe of this beautiful song on January 3rd, 2024! I've seen a video of Seal being interviewed at a radio station and he sings parts of this song a capella, and no Auto-tune His voice is exactly the same as on the recording. It is rare for a professional singer-songwriter and recording artist to not need Auto-tune. He is that rare talent and it is incredible beyond belief. Fun fact: Seal strongly dislikes and is embarrassed of this song!!

[johnnewton]

The voice, the lyrics, the musical composition make this a timeless classic.

[Panzerbunn]

With this song ends a legend.

The legend of Bossman.

[sophiaflagg]

26 years later this song is still beautiful

[Suga]

I just heard this on the radio right now, if I hadn't changed the station I wouldn't know of this beautiful song. Thank goodness I did ❤

[ToastedCigar]

This is such a well-written song. The arrangements are pure gold

[duffyanna]

This song probably one of the greatest song ever

[ezekielrussell]

No doubt the most prominent piece of music that features an oboe. Never gets old!

[tunsofbuns]

I'm just glad a community college Dean isn't making me sing this with him.

Ba-da-da, ba-da-da-da-da-da, ba-da-da
Ba-da-da, ba-da-da-da-da-da, ba-da-da
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
Ba-da-da, ba-da-da-da-da-da, ba-da-da
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 on the gray
I've been kissed by a rose on the gray
(And if I should fall, would it all go away?)
I've 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
Now 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
Now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the gray
Ba-da-da, ba-da-da-da-da-da, ba-da-da
Now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the gray
