Brilliant (in my opinion) singer/musician. First two albums were both called Seal (which was kind of confusing); people are most likely to have heard Kiss from a Rose, Killer, and Crazy from those. His third is called Human Being; unfortunately it doesn't seem to have taken off, which is a shame, since it's a really good album. He also did Fly like an Eagle, for the Space Jam film, which hasn't been on any of his albums so far. The fourth album is at least distinguished by calling it Seal IV.
Full name Sealhenry Samuel; the scars on his cheeks are reportedly from contracting lupus as a child. Currently living somewhere in the US, but I'm not sure where.
