Tame Impala bring layered harmonies to Seal's 'Kiss From A Rose'

Kevin Parker's Like A Version visit pairs the Seal cover with an original, 'Dracula,' and both performances are drawing unusually fast starts.

Tame Impala cover Seal's 'Kiss From A Rose' for Like A Version

The voices arrive together before Kevin Parker begins the verse: harmonized chants over warm synthesizers, followed by electric guitar and a chorus filled out by backing vocals. Tame Impala's choice for Like A Version is Seal's 'Kiss From A Rose,' a song with plenty of room for a live band to put its singers to work.

The cover reached roughly 56,000 views in seven hours, far beyond triple j's usual early pace for regular videos. Its comment section had already drawn many more responses than a typical upload receives across its entire first day.

Parker makes Tame Impala's studio recordings largely on his own, but this performance puts the ensemble in focus. The backing voices rise around his lead, with keys and bass carrying the verses before the final choruses build again. Viewers are discussing Parker's vocal development and the harmonies, while several point out an instrumental detail: percussion being played on keyboards, with the drum parts divided between players.

The session also produced 'Tame Impala - 'Dracula' (live for Like A Version),' which is attracting an unusually large early audience of its own. That pairing follows the series' invitation to perform an original and a cover, rather than making the Seal song a standalone visit.

At the cover's finish, the bassist raises his arms, the band laughs, and an audible 'Oh yeah!' supplies the last note of the session.
