More on Killer
Description from Wikipedia:
"Killer" is a popular song by Adamski and Seal.
Written by Adam Tinley (Adamski) and Seal and produced by Adamski, "Killer" was Adamski's breakthrough single, but is now more notable for introducing Seal as a vocalist. A major hit in the UK, it reached number one, spending four weeks at the top of the chart in May 1990. The song reached #23 on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart in the US. It was then re-recorded by Seal the following year, produced by Trevor Horn.
In 1992, George Michael performed the song live in a version that was released on the 1993 EP Five Live; it was also released as a single in 1993 in a medley with "Papa Was a Rollin' Stone", and was remixed by P. M. Dawn. Trance act ATB recorded a version in 1999, also released as a single. Other cover versions were performed by power metal band Angel Dust on the 2002 album Of Human Bondage, girl group Sugababes as a B-side to the 2003 single "Shape" and Scottish garage rock band Sons And Daughters as a B-side to their 2007 single "Gilt Complex".
Lyrically, the title of the song comes from the line "It's the loneliness that's the killer," which occurs only once in the introduction to the Seal version and not at all in the Adamski version. The distinctive opening bassline and keyboard melody during the chorus, however, are preserved in almost every version of the song in some form.
The song also contains the lyrics "Racism in among future kings can only lead to no good besides all our sons and daughters already know how that feels", these were recycled and used in Seal's song "Future Love Paradise" featured on his debut album.
