Regal. Elegant. Sensual and — judging from the cover for her latest single — apparently ageless. Since the Eighties, Sade has been schooling us all on ways to be a timeless beauty icon. Look at that makeup, that jewelry. Absolutely flawless, effortlessly gorgeous. Love me some Sade!
She makes her fans yearn for the jewels and can take years to release her songs, but when she releases new material it’s always worth the wait.
Case in point her brand new single, Soldier of Love.
This is the first glimmer of sound we’ve heard from the Nigerian born musical goddess since 2000’s Lovers Rock. I’m loving it. It’s modern and fresh, while still capturing that classic, stirring Sade sound.
This is just the single — the album drops February 8, 2010 — just in time for Valentine’s Day. I see you, Sade — you know what the fans want! You can click here to pre-order Soldier of Love. And tell me — are you feeling this as much as I am? I’ve been hungry for new music that actually moves me, and this is giving me what I need!
I can not wait!! She’s a magnificent beauty & her voice? Effortless!
LOVE this single! Great post ~
WOW!! Sade does it again I am soooo happy for her and cant WAIT until she starts touring again!! Shes always been my fav artist and I’m feeling that cover art!
This is giving me what I need to Bella, I absolutely love it, classic Sade, but more up beat, still a little dark and haunting but that’s what I love about her music it’s Insatiable and hypnotic !!!
“in the front line in this battle of mine, but I’m still alive….I’m a soldier of love, every day and night, all the days of my life”
I hear that she has a song with Maxwell on this cd as well, 2 of my favorite artist, oh how I have longed for a colabo with these two.
When I heard that Sade was coming out with a new album a few months ago, I couldn’t believe it. Finally real music, from a real singer! I can’t wait to cop this album!
Gasp…I love her! That’s the woman I wanted to be since age 9.
Love the song! Great beat! Luuv it!
Loving anything Sade! So glad she’s back and can’t wait to hear even more new material. ps. I heard that she has a song with Maxwell too. (fingers crossed)
Oh my gosh. Life is good! First album in I don’t know how long that I am postively salivating for… sight unseen. I know, Iknow, lot’s of people say her songs sound all alike and in a way I agree. And, you know what I happen to love that sound! Yipee! Can’t wait, can’t wait.. she says, skipping around with glee.
I have been playing the single non-stop!!
I love it and can’t wait for the album to drop. It will be the first CD I’ve bought in a while (I’ve been buying singles from iTunes).
I’m happy that Sade is back. She has been away too long!!
Nice to see/hear Sade is back. lovely tune.
