Artists discuss the 13 records that shaped their lives

8. Soul Love

For me, ‘Soul Love’ is an amazing love song without being too sugary. It isn’t boy-meets-girl, jealousy, betrayal, sort of thing – it wasn’t normal. It was a spiritual kind of love song, so I have a lot of respect for how he kept it in that kind of a concept. I didn’t really know what it was about, but the concept is about a love of a person and a love of the spiritual side of man, which is my personal take on it. Might not be what he meant, but that’s how I have always felt about it.
