Sade has obvious influence from Roxy Music,Which is great...but damn that woman just oozes Sexuality..and to quote Dave Chappell " there's alot of people making babies to her music"..exactly!
Oh yeah. I can't see how people can't tell this woman is black. She's mixed yes, but still black. Look at her forehead, lips, hair and skin tone. LISTEN TO HER VOICE. She sounds like a black woman. Look at the white women in the video. Does she look anything like them? NO...
We are here for appreciating her music ....hats off Sade for such a beautiful song. For racial debate, guys why dont you people just get the hell out of there.......
@scm8487 It's about a mafia man (the guy that is shown lying in bed with Sade) who is also a ladies' man. In the video, the cops want to know all the information on the guy (who is also her manager) because they know that Sade was dating the mobster. Sade wouldn't cooperate on bringing him down until the cops showed her a video of him cheating with another woman (the brunette-haired woman) who also works at the same club that Sade sings at.
She is half black/half white. Her Mother is a White woman from England and her Father is a black man from Nigeria. That's neither here nor there though because she is just a beautiful woman with a wonderful, unique voice. Thank you Sade for sharing your talent with the world!
You're such an idiot. Sade IS half white. She looks it too. Clearly a bi-racial woman. No one needs to lie about that. Her Mother is white and her Father is African. You dope. Get a life. Either way, she is a beautiful woman who surely looks better than your ass or any woman you've ever been with or will get (assuming you're a guy).
I love the atmosphere of this video. Red backdrop, smokey club, candles on tables, a slutty club hostess who obviously earned that diamond bracelet, Sade in that white dress, the schmoozing and the bad businessmen. Very cool.
I also liked the camera showing the distorted reflection in the ice bucket, film noir.
I can not believe how much music has changed in 25+ years....so muchh better back in the day, like the music vids were just super professional and just seemed more upscale, its hard to explain even though HD's clearer its missing that classic professional look. I think some may understand what I mean
Videos used to be cinematic and had plot-lines. Even the low-budget videos managed to capture the imagination. Nothing today can come close to that perfection.
@aramanth Very good point and I totally agree nothing today comes close, its pretty sad how much garbage is out there, there's some good stuff floating around but not nearly as much nor as good as back in the day.
How could you not like this song? SADE is in a class by herself in many ways. Although SADE is the bands name it came to be associated with her. It was supposed to reflect a state of mind such as; Pink Floyd. Her real name is Patricia Rushing and she is from Nigeria but went to europe as a fashion model. Her voice is totally amazing. This band is legendary in its own time. Definatlety music for lovers. TRY IT. Love making will not be the same.
@forramelagalleta I dont know if you are familiar with the newer symphonic metal that has swept Europe, but its rock and symphony together and mainly features women vocalists that wear beautiful gothic gowns or corsets and this is very tasteful, sophisticated, and sexy. There is a huge difference between sexy and NASTY. YT search: Leaves Eyes Norweigian Love Song. Select the one marked: [Live][official]. You will see what Im talking about. Its dignity, beauty, and class. SADE is all of that.
@SongCreator71 Haha, Anytime. Now go High-five them. But do it in Slow-mo whilst listening to the song "You're the Voice" by that.... Damn, what's his name?... Oh well, Google it/Youtube it.
I THOUGHT SHE WAS TALKING ABOUT BEING A SUPER DOPE ELITE SYSTEM ADMIN, OPERATOR FROM THE MATRIX NAME TANK ( ME ) FFS MAN NOW I CANT BE A SMOOTH OPERATOR.
A timeless classic . Truly a song that never gets old that you can just listen to over and over again and never get tired of hearing it. The garbage that Justin Bieber puts out is nuthin' compared to Sade.
This is a True Classic. I mean, how can you compare today's art to this? No comparison at all. Wow, just hear the Music, the video, it's all so elegant, maybe I can't even find the right word, But one thing for sure, Talent was "Talent" before.
One question, what is the story? Like, at first I thought Smooth Operator was the receptionist girl, but then I read the lyrics and I found out it was the guy. And in the last 3,4 minutes after the song, what is happening supposedly? Also, that receptionist girl is tremendously Beautiful, I believe her name is Amanda Pays.
Beyonce, Nikki Minaji, Justin Bieber, Chris Brown, Trey Songs.... Why can't they have their own style. You don't have the best voice, but your style makes you a real artist. I never hear any of these talk of a band or muscian chip. Chris Brown new song is one of the worse songs I have ever heard. Beyonce is good but doesn't sound any different that any other artist today. Number One Diva my ass!!!!
I watched a special on her on t.v. several years ago, and said to my husband, "My God! come and look at her! She is the sexiest woman alive!!!!" Oh Sade! I am jealous!
@kinserjosh I guess it depends on taste, this is one of my favorite videos from the 80's. :) If you want you can watch the truncated version vevo purchased. LOL
the 15 people who dont like this song is retarded sade is one of the most amazing and creative artist ever born so to you sade on your sucess and peace and love
Watch those men LADIES, SOME of them ARE SMOOTH OPERATORS. In this day and time you must practice DISCERNMENT. If you are looking for a significant other ask God because He says if you need wisdom to ask Him and He will never lead you wrong (James1:5-8) God bless.
This video is SEXY! I love you Sade. Been listening to you from the womb -- good music was a staple in my home. Your like our Auntie Sade! Can't believe I'm just bow seeing this but worth the wait!
I absolutely ADORE Sade...please come and vibe and comment on me on this song--I am getting raves on this outtake I just did--its on my "comments section" on the link
