"Crazy" is a song written by English soul artist Seal (music and lyrics) and producer Guy Sigsworth (music only). The song was produced by Trevor Horn for Seal's debut album Seal (1991). Seal's debut single, "Crazy" is one of his biggest hits, reaching the top five in the United Kingdom and the top ten in the United States. It since has been covered by several artists, including Alanis Morissette, whose version was released as a single from her album The Collection (2005).

This song in particular, is classified within the (Electronica, Pop, Soul) genre.
Would this single by Seal fit anywhere within a subgenre of Funk/Rock ? :usehead:

as for Claypool, i've read him directly crediting Metallica for Primus. they basically told him he was too weird for Metallica but that he absolutely positively totally needed to start his own band.

Everything you say I believe to be true, but Cliff Burton died in 1986 and Claypool's Primate started playing together back in 1984, so he had already started to explore doing his own thing...

BSSM had far more musical variety and depth. the production was just as good as anything else at the time (Appetite for Destruction / Nothing's Shocking etc.) . if anything the complaints seem to center around the guitar sounding 'too metal', more like too much Dave Navarro tones and not enough Jimi Hendrix.

in retrospect Mother's Milk was essentially a new band warming up by capping off their old sound. they even beg for it on Punk Rock Classic. this album is just too fast to have the broader appeal that BSSM has.
