  • Speechless!

  • Awesome, New Orleans at its best.

  • im speechless lol

  • Damn, that was cold!

  • When that older guy started I was like, "hey where is the sax?" then I realized he's playing the mouth organ. Oh man. Amazing.

  • tears:)

  • so happy you recorded this and uploaded it on yt!

  • AMAZING!!!!!!!

  • One of my favorite videos on YouTube.

  • Dope

  • Lovely! Wow one of my favorites

  • the best sade cover of any song on youtube!!!!!!!! they don't need fancy backdrops, outfits, or production. they have the SOUL that few can duplicate

  • Just when I thought nobody could ever justify this song other than Mizz Sade.... WOW, this girl is frikkin amazing. Thank you for posting this! =)

  • got this on steady replay - but whoever is bumpin THE BREAKS in the background if killin it for the rest of us!!!

  • New Orleans is a hub for live music...especially the french quarter....these were probably mostly local people.....we don't appreciate the great city we have until it gets taken away.

  • unbelievable...

    excellent, many compliments to them - and thank you!-

  • can't believe these pedestrians....I would walk across the street just to hear this, I def couldn't just walk by and act like someone's not doing one of the better Sade covers i've ever heard... they should play in NY

  • this was really good

  • OmG that was fuckin awesome..i so wanna go to orleans just in hopes of seein them!

  • Fucking awesome

  • Well, if they were on the streets of London, then Sade would probably see them. I agree, She would be proud.

  • I wish i had these guys on the streets of my city. Beautiful. Sade would be proud.

  • Wow That was Incredible..Hard to beleive theres people just walking by.

  • Ditto!

  • Awesome. She sounds like Randee Crawford. The guitarist does a great job.Thanks for posting.

  • DAMN THAT WAS GOOD

  • what a bless!

  • i actually saw sade's new orleans concert on 9/1/01...this is truly the next best thing to having sade singing it herself in the middle of the french quarter...great musicians & a talented vocalist!!!

  • Oh, my GOODNESS. That was pure heaven. If anyone ever finds out who these people are, please, PLEASE contact me.

    Thank you so much for being present there so this gem could be shared with the rest of us.

  • IEDUSMC, you are very correct. It's Decatur St., I think. But yeah, it's Cafe Du Monde. They do have some excellent street musicians down there.

  • Dan their acoustic version on the streets sounds better than the original studio recording.  I would purchase a CD from them.

  • paconot, even if this acoustic version is better than the original studio recording, it can NOT compare to hearing the lady sing it live herself...check out the version on the lovers live dvd with the passionate guitar solo by ryan waters

  • this is incredible

  • :) Gave me chills!! So amazing! How does Paris Hilton have a record deal and these people don't? It's a travesty.

  • that guy in the black hat that comes in the middle of the video is the only one that knows what's up!

  • Comment removed

  • my god! they would be a nationwide hit! i bet it's due to financial problems that they can't get publicity. or, even better, they just play for fun and they don't care abour money, just making good music!

  • Very sensitive, yet powerful. Thanks for being there to record this great performance.

  • Only in the N.O. I hope when I go home to visit they are out there what street is this is it by the famers market close to Cafe Du Monde

  • :O  !!!

  • Is it a crime? Yes, it is a crime for these people to be walking by not realizing the magic these musicians were creating.

  • OMG! watch this in high-def! in looks and sounds so much better!

    put this at the end of the url

    &fmt=18

    and thank you for posting this.

  • oh my god I just wanna slap everyone that's walking by like no one's playing.

  • its a crime to be waking away from perfectly good music.

  • really great, wish i could see more of them

  • thanks for posting this, im really surprized people are just walking by like nothings going on. this is really amazing, wish i coulda been there for the whole set...

  • i woulda stayed there all day requesting sade covers!!

  • How could anyone just walk by? The guitarist is amazing, the harmonica player has it covered... and the singer is absolutely beautiful...!

  • This is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen in my life. If I had $10,000 to spare it would of been theirs.

  • You mean I have to go all the way to New Orleans to find a Sade cover band? Damn it.

  • Well, cause of Katrina chances are they are in Houston...lucky meee!!!!!
