It’s natural for Sade to take a stab at ‘Your Love Is King’ considering her long-professed love for Babylon Zoo. Since Sade last CD (The Best Of Sade) on Sparrow Records back in 1994, I have felt a massive void in my life. There is so much to love about Sade, starting with incredible harmonies, songwriting chops and stellar stage presence. Enjoy the show.
Hang On Your Love is another strong production from Sade. Lyrics of Smooth Operator are precise and evocative. In Jezebel Sade is at his best. The Sweetest Taboo is a very catchy tune. Is It A Crime as a highlight of The Best Of Sade contains a ton of exquisite melodies. After few listenings I started to like Never As Good As The First Time more and more. Love Is Stronger Than Pride is a great song to contemplate the modern music and what it really is all about. Simply the finest work ever from this multi-talented singer. In Nothing Can Come Between Us the light shines equally on lyrics, vocals and instrumentation. This song may be the most meaningful. This track is full of harmonies and gets The Best Of Sade off to a relaxing start. Sade is one of artists that allow his songs like Kiss Of Life to stand on their own and be heard. Although Please Send Me Someone To Love is very melodic it is far from sad. Cherish The Day is a romantic if not formulaic ditty. Pearls is perfect work of Sade.
