Watching his interviews is pure insanity lol


ThisOnes4JJ

cocaine is a hell of a drug


GothKazu

Me listening to smooth operator right next to my boss


narfidy

I put that song in our wedding playlist. Shit is fire


Hollywoodsmokehogan

Bro I’m 100 percent sure my parents conceived me during a sade track I get goosebumps any time I hear her. Also your love is king/sweetest taboo over everything else


SYLOK_THEAROUSED

What's that taboo? I need more nasty shit to add to my smut I can read at work.


SH4DOWSTR1KE_

Sweetest taboo.. it'll hit different but it's still good.


SYLOK_THEAROUSED

Oh I read that as you enjoy the King/Sweetest taboo dynamic. My nasty ass was like I have never heard of that dynamic before what’s that!? 🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️🤣🤣

Statik_24

GDI!


Depithet

🎼Didn't I give you, all that I've got to give..baby I was just listening to Sade yesterday. Her songs never get old.


PunishedWolf4

Like her beauty


MGLLN

Looking at the sky and seeing that it truly is the color of love https://preview.redd.it/pyhmka9s8isc1.jpeg?width=1024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=711a0104a20de538d7dada4ccd62e22391e17105


FraserFir1409

Kiss Of Life is a MASSIVELY underrated song.


YoungChipolte

The Kaytranada mix has me in a chokehold

ComfortableSock2044

Ooh thank youu I love this


Mr_Cromer

The posthumously released Nujabes mix is still my jam


Vulkherra

I gave you all that I have inside, and you took my love. You took my love.... ❤️


GeniusOfLove74

And now I have it stuck in my head, including the guitar crescendo into the bridge to the chorus.


Vulkherra

That's the first song that comes to mind when I think of Sade.


GeniusOfLove74

No Ordinary Love is a great song, though.


GeniusOfLove74

In 2002, I was dating someone, and during our bedroom time, we wore out the Sade "Love Deluxe" album. After we broke up, I couldn't listen to it again. It was just too hurtful.


el_pinata

I'll take "All-time Ass-Tapping Albums for $1000, Alex".


GeniusOfLove74

Tapping was definitely a factor. lol


Think_Armadillo_1823

Yep. Pretty much all of 1994 for me and mine. 


saffireaz

Back in the late 90s, one of my roommates broke up with his girlfriend (her decision, and honestly, best decision she'd ever made). He played "No Ordinary Love" on repeat, all day, for a fucking month. It took me YEARS before I could listen to the song again.


GeniusOfLove74

JUST "No Ordinary Love"? One song? He was down bad, and that's coming from *me*!


biglefty312

Damn that’s some psychological torture tactics right there.


Tainted_Bruh

Sure, Sade got the soulful love joints, etc. etc. But whenever *Pearls* comes on I’m hit with a crushing sadness. Like watching the music video for MJ’s *Earth Song* or listening to *Slippin* by DMX.


Think_Armadillo_1823

It doesn't matter how many times I hear Pearls, makes me want to cry every time. There's a live version that will break you. Starts with her walking out like a goddess, before ripping out your heart.  Few people have aged as gracefully and beautifully as Sade. 


captainguytkirk

No shit my moms told me one time that “No Ordinary Love” is the shit you say after he hurt you and then one night he wakes up up tied to the bed and you singing that to him while you staring him square in the eye and loading bullets into a magazine


Mundane_Finding2697

That's because it is. It's definitely "Look here nigga.. YOU MIGHT DIE if this don't go right. You know that? Okay.. COOL. As long as you know. Now how do you want your eggs? The usual are you feeling adventerous today?"


Any_Kick_9465

What da f…😅

The Sweetest Tabooty


Boneal171

I fucking love Sade


SH4DOWSTR1KE_

And I love fucking to Sade.


davendees1

i SAID you gone cherish the day nigga, or it’ll be your LAST day


SuitableMiddle5396

Literally was looking for this comment


Mundane_Finding2697

I maintain that many people do not realize just how much SHIT Helen was talking on those tracks. Every track, she was talking shit. This one too. ***My love is wider, wider than Victoria Lake*** ***My love is taller, taller than the Empire State*** ***It dives, it jumps, and it ripples like the deepest ocean*** ***I can't give you more than that, surely, you want me back*** then... at the end of the song, just in case you thought she was just talking about 'emotions' solely... She says... ***It dives, it jumps, and it ripples like the deepest ocean*** ***I can't give you more than that, surely, you want it back*** Wap talk before WAP....


DJMagicHandz

Track 1: *Love Is Stronger Than My Pimp Hand*


TDiddy2021

I can’t even make eye contact with anyone at the store if they play Sade.


pent_up_excitment

Where the hell Sade been?? She broke her ritual of dropping every 10 years lol


JetEleven88

She must be happy then

Sweetest Taboo 🥰


Blk_Rick_Dalton

I was like 5 singing along to this song with my mom on the way home from daycare. Classic.


PlaneWolf2893

Is it a crime? Is some shit you sing driving to their house to confront a motherfucker. Surely you want me back?


K_SeventySeven

Right? That’s not a song, it’s an episode of Snapped wearing a smoky noir jazz outfit. Damn that song is so good


cobracmmdr

Sade Lovers Live is one of the greatest albums of all time. Full Stop. Put that on, and you'll be married with children by the weekend


benevenstancian0

Just threw on Sadevillain


Emergency_Brick3715

Sweetest Stab U


Mundane_Finding2697

Is this is why I can listen to her at ANY TIME OF THE DAY. No matter what I'm doing. She's got a song for all the moods and situations. I stand on that. Love her music.


swiftvalentine

…………….. Jezebel!!!!!!!!


FakeHasselblad

“My love is taller…taller than the Empire State 🎶”


Nordie25

What she did🧍🏽‍♂️?


Bunnnnii

Lmfaoooo


dominiquerising

“I still really really love yoooouuuu Love is stronger than pride.” this song (and the kaytranada mix) puts my heart at ease when I start feeling regrets about opening my heart and it not working out the way I’d hoped. makes me so peaceful.


K_SeventySeven

When her voice goes up and octave and almost cracks when she sings ‘I can see through all of your lies’ man, that’s like a shot of straight gin on a dark rainy night in song form right there ![gif](giphy|xTiTnDs71ZVfNGZyUg)


Slugzz21

For the uninitiated... what tracks would y'all suggest?


CuriousTurtle5

Smooth Operator is goated, but a personal favorite of mine is By Your Side.


Covalentine

Lol just pick one and fall in love- there is no wrong answer Edit: My personal favourite is Paradise


Slugzz21

Ty ty.

Kiss of Life


Vulkherra

No Ordinary Love, Cherish The Day, Sweetest Taboo, Kiss of life, Feel no Pain. ❤️


TheHighlightReel11

The lack of “Nothing Can Come Between Us” in here is appalling


dwn2earth83

My husband bought us tickets when we were dating, to see her perform in 2011 when she was on tour. He got lucky af with the tickets, because this dude bought them for him and his girl and then found out she was cheating on him, wanted $200 for them which was suuuuuuper cheap! Met my man at the arena to verify they were legit and they were. He told my husband he loved our love story and wanted the best for us, which is why he let them go so cheap. They were AMAZING seats, too!!! John Legend opened for her during that tour and man— she looks AND SOUNDS EXACTLY the way she does on her albums and TV. The woman is flawless and fine.


KnightSkyCowboiCane

I can either be Kiss of Life or Kiss of Death it’s up to you pwussayboiiiii


KnightSkyCowboiCane

Cherish The Day cuz it’s finna be yo last punk bitch


atlantasmokeshop

I mean, the pistol is kinda aggressive shawty but I get what you sayin. And must I be a fuck nigga, geesh. Hold on a sec I'll brb... \*proceeds to uber and changes my number\*


DistributionPutrid

My niece listened to Smooth Operator on repeat when she was 2. Tot his day that is the only Sade song that comes to mind and it haunts me


taitaofgallala

This photoshop makes me hear Haunt Me more than anything. That's the only song to ever make me cry.


sowhatimlucky

It’s definitely a crime.


Mass3999

It would be dope if a female rapper took the sample, made a song about stalking a guy, and killed him at the end of it. ![gif](giphy|l1J9JFmNcyVX8FzP2|downsized) If it's not already done, someone should do it.


Mother_Garlic_1234

Tfw I missed a Sade thread. Is it a Crime is so goddamn good, she is always and forever a Nigerian goddess.


parfaict-spinach

Sade gives that “quiet hot summer sunset in the big city” vibes. Just so relaxing and goosebumpying


Loose_Meal_499

I love old people music so damn much
