Sade Performs "Soldier of Love"

[swissfrank65]

OMG She is pure medicine. She has the power to heal all of us, if only we let her.

[s8f360]

The best of the best!!! Sade is a great as a band. The sade herself is amazing but at the same time, her band members are all badass ppl. Stewart Mathewman is my favorite since he co-produced MAXWELL'S URBAN HANG SUITE.

[osjaul]

She is like the Goddess of Beauty - she doesnt look older than 30 years old

The roses on her hair are simply fabulous

[neeteshananth]

Will you marry me S-Adu ???

[TheMostDesired]

She is one of those, true, artists that doesn't pull out to the audience, but lets the audience pull into her artistry!

[zZAD]

@TheMostDesired i so agree with you. This is just pure talent...not pure marketing like the rest.

[hailabg]

[lilizabete]

Simply wonderful

[myponygirl]

Fantastic!

[patricknce]

I like her from 1983 and still find her inventive , with a very good voice and music, even if some songs of course better than others. She always looks natural and pretty.. not artificial and this show bizz look like many artists who sale more their image than their talent ! Bravo !!

[auggiedoggy]

She's back and so is that silky smooth voice!!! She's 51 now and could pass for 30.

[RaiderEleven]

AMAZING performance! Welcome back, Sade and band. 51 years old? She could easily be 31!

[molly336]

sade is amazing ..so amazing you can see the audoence just staring at her...hypnotized....amazing..c­ool lady

[mauiman2007]

Eternal Beauty on about 7 different levels. Sade gives hope to all that it is possible to age with grace and beauty.

[bareblack]

SHE'S STILL SO SO FINE: HOW?? Rock it sistergirl.

[singer852456]

this person is unbelieveble. i can´t  say more

[Renfrewshire1001]

This lady has got class, I watched her very rare interview, and she is still so humble, something the pre-Madonnas of today could learn from, great artist, I love this womans music.

[skylar1477]

Luv Sade!!! Luv the song....

[ryanshaunkelly]

[cabagepr64]

SENSACIONAL - VOLTA BRILHANTE!!!!

[konfuzius781]

[VJITSADEMO]

SADE IS THE TRUTH IM GLAD SHE IS BACK

[Highr8ller]

Sade sends a beautiful message with this song, it is a beautiful song.

[bmaysS01]

shit

[unobarto]

The audience is freezed by her light. they just can't bilieve

[StephenC219]

not this wack audience, though...

[tedilove83]

Lovely woman.Incredible song.I love SADE:)

[olekstom]

beautiful

[dalcowb]

the crowd SUCKS!!!

[dancebaby808]

why is the audience so comatose?

[tobulldogsto]

not to be rude but i did't like it very much. It just wasnt memorable to me. But I've never listened to Sade before though. So i really have no right to judge

[ThrashingBastardHell]

Yes!

[shortwired2X]

Bring it on Sade.. Erica Badu ~Jennifer Lopez~ nor that blond wit Brittney Spears has NOTHING ~ on your inspriation.

[weezyzlady601]

She oozes an indescribable elegance and confidence.... she's so freaking sensual.. and just.. just... Sade.

[Msstl63]

S: sensuous, sexy, sultry, smooth

A: adulated, adored, amor, alluring

D: delicious, divine, diva, down-to-earth

E: exquisite, exotic, elegant, exceptional

[iloveitunesful]

sade is timeless

[goigoitoy]

soooo pretty! yes she is!

[MrDeerecub1977]

shes a badass

[MyJachi]

@MrDeerecub1977 ... no MrDeerecub!, she`s one of the greatest! beautiful woman, lovely voice and all of these and these things one of the greatest one! and so long too! sry, pardon and good luck for you and all of us, stay well and be saved ...

[dwater007]

The song and video are simply amaizing... My favorite one so far. Love you forever Sade

[ShuKurusugawa]

i still think she could do better than this... :/ .Its not like her old music i think the old songs are more powerful then the new ones.

[DangeroursGirl18]

sADE

[33Kellymc]

Voice is still wonderful and still beautiful!! Sing sis!!

[caiahinstyle]

I am a DIE HARD Sasde fa, I love this performance. Yes, her voice is different, but she is a unique artist, AND the most successful female British artist. Sade has a powerful message and like artists like Nina Simone OR Ella Fitzgerald, Sade has her own unique sound and Style. Lets support and not hate, Sade has certainly proverd to fans that she can belt out nice notes when she choses, check out lovers live DVD and listen to cherry pie or is it a crime. She doesn't do her best on these tv shows

[fabmoretti56]

still sounds and looks amazing and my gawd she doesn't look a day older since Lover's Rock!

[josh82000]

Wow I had no idea that she was the singer to the song Smooth Operator

[Input1914]

@josh82000 LMAO you must be really young

[DavidOwenWard]

No, she is not the best singer. Sade really is showing artist that you dont have to come out with a album every year to be consistant. There are to many singers that will eat her alive. Jill Scott, Mary J. Blige, SADE IS UNIQUE, that is why she is one of the best. And her band is one of the best live bands I have heard.

[TheACE925]

This woman is in her ealry 50's and still has it! Go 'head Sade! And please don't wait soooo long to put out new material. We miss you! :-)

[LakeRafiD]

@TheACE925

I second all of what you said fa' sho.

[LakeRafiD]

@TheACE925

I second all of what you said fa' sho.

[JonathanGardnerTV]

She is mesmerising omg...just the perfect package and her band =O !! I can listen to that instrumental track ALL DAY!!

[CerebralMadness]

SHE IS IN SHAPE! Love her music

[casinoroyaleoxygen]

amazing amazing amazing!

[TheRealMichaelBaer]

i love her too! =)

[BruBoyz]

Hey you guys! I was just wondering if anyone

knew if she was American or not because she

seems Exotic

[lovegrams19]

@BruBoyz Her dad is Nigerian and her mother is British. Amazing huh? Wonderful combination! She lived in Nigeria until she was 7 then moved to somewhere else I'm not sure but u can wiki her.

[BruBoyz]

Thanks For The Info! I had a hunch about her that's cool!

[sagehiphop]

she is african and british

[TheGround11]

I always have love for you Sade!

[TheGrimace92]

idk if ya'll catch it but she gets Flat on her notes more than 5 times n shit

[Dudda42]

It has been 10 years.She'll get it.

[TheGrimace92]

yeah i know but everyone on here is givin' her sooo much praise that they get blinded by her name and don't listen well enough

[Dudda42]

True,But we must keep in mind that sade is not a singer but an artist/poet that through music is able to make you feel the love,passion,pain that she speaks of.There are very few who are able to do that.Billie Holiday who (to me) was not a singer BUT the emotion behind her music is what made her a great artist. James Brown samething,When he said this is a man's world you believed it.

[TheGrimace92]

naw to me she is a singer and poet, especially her old stuff!!! big time

[Dudda42]

Well....We agree to disagree in regards to her being a singer..Let me just throw some names at you,Who I think are real singers.Old Whitney Houston,Ella Fitzgerald,Jennifer Hudson,Dinah Washington.These ladies would be my definition of singers and besides Sade herself has said in recent and past interviews that she's not a singer.

[Dudda42]

And forgot to mention that the band is just kick ass!!!!! Wicked!!!

[JonathanGardnerTV]

@TheGrimace92 I didn't actually hear any flat notes. She was on key with all of them but she just doesn't deliver them with much flair and very little vibrato. Her vocal style is very simple but she was actually note perfect....

[TheGrimace92]

dude naw man i go to a school of art my major is music so i need to know my stuff, its really noticeable when she holds her notes

[JonathanGardnerTV]

@TheGrimace92 I study music also and I sing...I must correct myself as actually there a few flat notes but alot of them are fine and it's more down to her delivery which makes them sound 'flat' but she remains on key...

[JonathanGardnerTV]

@TheGrimace92 Her control falters at points and the notes could have been brighter at points but they were actually on key....

[SMAXX34]

Well she's been singing the same damn song for a week on different shows!

[Input1914]

@JonathanGardnerTV why is there so much criticism to her performance. She's old as hell and sounds 100X better than the current Whitney Houston. Hell most of today's current artists who are in their prime have sucky performances. At least I can barely tell this apart from the radio version....the benefit of having an actual band rather than corny computer generated production

[JonathanGardnerTV]

@Input1914 Omg I NEVER criticised her performance...trust me...I was DEFENDING her...look at who I was arguing with and then say I criticised her...

[slapmc321]

stuart matthewman is the shit. Heart and soul of such an awesome group, as well as with maxwells early work.

[therapist66]

Amazing! The band members are all the same! I love to see that, they have a great vibe together. The back up singers are awesome too..

Sade is the BEST!

[NyGrapeApe]

OMG!!! Shes still gorgeous and still can sing her ass off. I love her! If you ever have trouble sleeping here is your medicine. She will have chills running up your spine. Sade has the greatest vocal skills hands down.

[stoicman31]

omg She looks 28! Very good for 51.

[StudioGuyMN]

Definitely better than her performance on Letterman.

[sagehiphop]

i liked that one too

[Daybreakhasme]

Speechless, her talent knows no bounds. This is how music is supposed to be. An arrow to your heart.

Peace.

[snowball1988]

i think this is the best performance of this song yet! she seems to be moving around and having more fun here than the other performances but its probably because the audience is nearer to her!

[Nyobe1]

Just wow. I actually got goosebumps watching. Amazing.

[DrIzZeY1]

i love this woman

[rocdamik50]

amazing singer

[DocRockk]

OH

MY

GOD.

She's 51 years old! Unbeilable. The years have been most kind to her. She looks the same as in her Paradise video from decades ago.

Wow. Sade has ALWAYS had my all around respect. She has the integrity so many artists these days sorely lack. She keeps staying relevant. She is amazing. I won't miss her tour this time, if I have to call in sick to work to be there.

[riocjones]

The world needs SADE...soooo glad you are back. Congrats on selling over 500,000 albums in the first week.

[TheSharperWon]

This is just a sign of what people really want to hear. The words are clear, SADE is classy. If excellent songs are written we will support the music. Death to hip hop, more of classy OLD SCHOOL flavor. Do your thing SADE! At 51 you the LADY exudes charm, class and sexy!!!

[cjs33139]

YOU ARE SO RIGHT!!! I am in my 40s and grew up on Sade and these days, all I see is crappy music with guest cameo appearances of ghetto-ass nasty grilled tooth rappers singing with Mariah. I mean, Mariah WAS a great singer and performer, because she showcased her talented voice and now is a tool for exploitative sexist rappers!? At least Sade comes out with a new album ONLY if she has something to say, NOT merely to sell records. Mariah should take a cue from her. Congrats Sade!

[onnapastoutelasoiree]

@cjs33139 I'm 21 and could not agree more with you!

[snowball1988]

im 21 too, i love sade!

[onnapastoutelasoiree]

@snowball1988 So awesome cause sometime I feel I'm the only one around my age that likes more old school artist and bands

[snowball1988]

i know! mariah does too many albums now, which are not the same quality as her old ones....she does need to step back a while and get some insperation....

[cjs33139]

Yeah, I actually used to love Mariah's old look and sound and then she got all "trendy". See, Sade has never had to succumb to trends or hire rapper just to sell records to teenyboppers. She doesn't have to dress slutty to attract a younger audience or sell records. Sade isn't a sell out and never has been. Mariah does need to step back and realize she has lost a whole older generation of fans who used to love her. She also needs to dress age-appropriate. She isn't Madonna!

[devajeaco07]

@cjs33139 A little harsh on Mariah aren't you? i wouldnt go that far on the topic of being trendy! Sade has been gone for 10yrs! im pretty sure you dont have to worry about keeping it fresh or being trendy when your on vacation for a decade! Don't contradict yourself! If you have an opinion on something...be consistent! If Mariah needs to dress more age apporiate...then so does Madonna, who is 11yrs older than Mariah!

[cjs33139]

@devajeaco07 I am saying that Sade, as beautiful as she is and who has a knock out body (better than Mooriah's), doesn't have to show skin to sell her music. The fact that she has been away for 10 years, means that she thinks her music through, before making it. She doesn't put music out just to sell records... even Sade has said that. When she has something to say, she goes into the studio. I admire that about her and the fact that she keeps true to her genre, not to appeal to 18 year olds

[cjs33139]

@devajeaco07 On one last note... I have been a huge Madonna fan (and former huge Mariah fan) in the early days and in Madonna's defense, it was expected of her to be slutty and dress provocative because I am one to admit, Madonna's talent IS sex... and dance, because her voice sucks, but she is still entertaining and puts out great music still. Mariah, on the other hand, doesn't pull that whole "look" very well and looks like she is trying too hard to look young and sexy. She is better than that

[cjs33139]

@cjs33139 Madonna doesn't dress slutty in public. If anything, Madonna DOES dress age appropriate in public and has for the last 15 or so years. Her look is classy and tasteful (maybe motherhood changed her?) but Mariah still dresses way too slutty for a woman her age in PUBLIC. By trendy, I mean, following young trends, which is a direction Mariah went, so did Toni and they lost a whole generation of older fans & now put forth crappy music, that sounds the same.

[devajeaco07]

@cjs33139 you dont think madonna is being trendy? Madonna doesnt make music for older people. But its true that she hasnt lost a whole generation of fans to gain another. and did you say classy?I wouldnt exactly use the word classy to describe Madonna!

[devajeaco07]

@devajeaco07 part2......she has her moments, but even kim kardashian manages to look classy once or twice a year! maybe motherhood has changed her, but mariah doesnt have any children yet! Maybe we should wait and seen how Mrs.Cannon dresses after she has a kid,then we can finish the discussion!

[MsDimplecheeks]

Madonna should take note

[cjs33139]

Haha.. i actually like Madonna. I grew up on her and Sade.. but they are not to be compared. Madonna's music is for her type of voice... I mean, if SAde started doing the stuff that Madge does, I'd lose interest in her; same vice versa. They are both quality performers but I don't deny that Sade's voice is more beautiful and soothing. Madonna is just good for dancing and shock value, that's all, but I do see merit in M's music. At least she is consistent. Bravo to Sade!

[natureboy5476]

F@$*ing amazing!!! SHE IS AWESOME, Congrats on going gold in 1 week... not easy these days but Sade is in a league of her own!!!

Thanks for posting!!

[xsignal2noisex]

lol, I see my finger @1:35

[Dudda42]

LOL!

[SMAXX34]

It looks like she's having fun, the earlier performances were very stiff, she's actually smiling.

[xsignal2noisex]

yea, it seemed like she had a blast. when they brought her out onstage we all screamed SO loud and she had the biggest smile on her face.

[Swagaization]

She's 51 and looks like she is 25???!!!! She looks better than she did decades ago, and she was amazingly beautiful then!!!! Wow!!! The great Sade is back!!!! Yey!!!

[1adadada]

Madonna, take a note this is how you do classy dont need my backside hanging out ageing.

[stilsonj]

Obsessed with this song and video. It has been way too long since we've heard from her! And she looks incredible on top of sounding fantastic!

[kmena72]

Sade is a bad mamma! Love that outfit!!! When is the concert?

[chantejoy]

It seems like they hired a choreographer. A marked difference from last week's performances on various shows. One this is for sure...she is SMOKIN HOT for 51. This may be the best looking 51 year old woman I've ever seen.

[SMAXX34]

@chantejoy This is what good clean country livin will get you!

[Reasonizhere]

Whoever said this lady weaver chic is better than Sade.... Ur looking for some attention.. No screaming and yelling.. Sade is elegance without that... I think ur trying to trick people into viewing ur page!!!

Even the lord knows the truth!!

[Benbanme]

o_O holy crap, she's 51? been listening to her for a while now but I thought she's 40-ish. wow, looks and voice in 1 packet :X lovely

[batfly]

LadyWeaver is way better than Sade...

watch?v=-l2OimfXLuI

[Dudda42]

Who the hell is ladyweaver??????

[mzklvr]

Love her smile @ 1:31. Glad she's back...still can't believe this woman is 51. dayum!

[rkhobo]

I've watched all of Sade's performances on the various shows and this was one of my favorites. The staging showcased her and the musicans and she looked and sang fantastic! Wonderful to have her back!

[movidablue]

Yeah they look so mysterious and cool! Amazing band!

[natureboy5476]

yeah watched them all..this is the best...I wish i could see the 106 and Park one again...cant wait for Wanda!!

[rkhobo]

Yes! For those who don't know, Sade will be performing this again on Wanda's show Sat night, 2/20. I don't usually watch the show, but I will be Sat night!

[moangel1958]

The lady still has it going.

[sgw35]

Nearly 10 years after the group's last studio effort, Sade is back with "Soldier of Love," blasting in at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart with 502,000 copies sold, according to Nielsen SoundScan.

[madinax0]

no offense, but who's sade? i never heard of her? lol i'm 16 so don't blame me.

[sesseboy]

@madinax0

u got spotify? go and check it out. U ar in 4 a treat

[madinax0]

hahah i did. she's realllly good!

[Bonitaymorena]

then look her up on wikipedia and then type her name in on youtube and watch her music video Geez. I'm 19 so 16 is no excuse. No every modern musician is necessarily good or talented just because their new. Majority of the talented singers came out in the previous decades anyway. Old school is usually better than new school with a few exceptions.

[madinax0]

lol why are you getting so mad? Geez. hahah. i just said what was on my mind. and i'm not afraid to say it. and btw i'm sorry i only know the popular singers.

[Necro69]

I saw her last tour. Man, she is so good and so damn hot. I am definitely going to see her again when she comes around.

[sgw35]

Seen it lastnight !!! It was great and she is hot !!!

[OuiTresJolie]

She's freakin' gorgeous. I can't believe she's over 50! She looks better than the younger and talentless singers.

[XeggerollX]

i love that she has male backup singers!=)

[nomadikindustries]

welcome back Sade ...Boy we missed you

[2cold1]

Sade is taking the the nation by storm right now with her pure time defying genuinenism....People are just eating this up...enjoy all while you can jack, because it might be another decade b4 we get another encounter of this magnitude.

[xsignal2noisex]

Awesome. I was there, like 4 feet from her.

[bababooeyinca]

I was there, too.

It WAS awesome!!

[iquit4gud]

What a surreal song. I actually need a smoke after listening to that.

[WBBianHugo]

shes very very VERY good.

[afunkydamsel]

She sounds almost exactly the same "Live!" as she does in her OFFICIAL video.  She looks fabulous! I'm still a fan after all these years. Thanks for posting this because I fell asleep and missed your late night show last night. Hugs!

[kaz287]

its catalina from gta3
