Togetherland

Togetherland was originally intended to be Seal's fourth album and was to be released back in 2001. Due to Warner Bros. Records turning down the album (most likely due to the rather unsuccessful Human Being. To which it may have been feared, to have had a sort of "déjà vu" with the release of the album), it never saw the light of day. Seal recorded and released Seal IV in its place. Seal decided to put Togetherland into a "vault", where the album has remained ever since.

Over the years, fans have been able to listen to 30 second clips as well as streamed, full versions of some of the album's songs, to which many of those songs received high praise. On July 1, 2007, a book titled The Greatest Music Never Sold was released and makes mention of Togetherland as well as other popular artists whose music has been kept hidden away. Fans patiently await the day for Togetherland to either be released commercially or even bootlegged.

So far, the only song from Togetherland that has been released commercially is the song "This Could Be Heaven" (originally entitled simply "Heaven"), which was released on the soundtrack to the motion picture The Family Man. The recording of the track, however, is different from the version that was recorded for Togetherland.
