Kiss from a rose is a normal song, but it's so weird how it git included in the Batman Forever soundtrack. The music video is Seal walking around a rooftop in an open shirt with the bat signal behind it.
I need to do some reading if there's anything out there about it, because why is it a batman song?
Whilst not fighting crime batman was a rosarian.
needed a love song
Seal was in line to play a villain in the movie, but the writers/directors/producers couldn't find a way to fit him into it. Since he had a contract, the parties agreed that one of his songs would be the main feature on the soundtrack. He had the song recorded for another album, but this would have given him more exposure. So they shot the video as Batman themed, and I'm completely making this shit up.
