Never saw Sade live but did watch/listen to a recording from one of her live shows played on a high end sound system; you're right she sounded more amazing.
you just stumbled onto the smoothest, jazziest and sexiest Jazz/Pop group of the 80's an 90's. Nice! They have SO many songs that were huge hits. Saw her in concert in 1992, just amazing! Smooth Operator was probably their biggest hit. So many memories tied to Sade, she is just the background voice of many moments of my life, probably for other people as well.
Sade is pure class. Saw her way back in the day at Ronnie Scott's club in Soho. That's the real Soho in London. All her albums are really exceptionally good.
I absolutely adore Sade! She is smooth, jazzy, and her voice is like silk! Sade is a British artist she had many many hits in the eighties and nineties! Check out some of her other hits like, Sweetest Taboo, Is It A Crime, No Ordinary Love, Cherish The Day, Kiss of Life, and many more! She is a vibe and is played when I’m alone with my guy!❤️❤️
So many classics from Sade "Jezebel", "Fear", "The Sweetest Taboo", "Is It A Crime", "Kiss Of Life", "King Of Sorrow", "Paradise", "Hang On To Your Love", "Nothing Can Come Between Us", "Pearls"... She was sampled by so many, MF Doom, Mobb Deep, 9th Wonder, Kool Keith
I immediately think of Mr. Video when I see this, and miss his music reactions. His ongoing crush was always so fun to watch. The Sade pillow was classic.
There is truly only one Sade. The smooth, soulful, classic voice from a woman of total elegance, grace and class. Love her music. No Ordinary Love should be your next.
I remember in the mid 80s I was in High School up in Sacramento. My best friend and I were out by the river, we went into a bar/diner to eat a burger and fries. You could tell there was some grumpy biker dudes that were regulars to that place. On the juke box this song came on and they were bitching about that song. When we were finishing eating my friend Mike loaded a $5 into the juke box, he selected Slow ride, then spent the rest on smooth operator 19 times it was 25 cents per song. We left during slow ride 🤣. This song always reminds me of that moment.
Sade is eve ry thing uh! Super talented, beautiful voice and one ofthe most beautiful women in the world along with an amazing band. Her bass player is one of the all time best, periodt!
Brad, intro was epic!! Be glad Lex told you how to say her name & you didn't have to read 500 comments spelling it out phonetically to you like all other reactors. Do "No Ordinary Love" next...
Thanks for reacting to this video. Sade is a marvel; voice like silk, very low key, and during the 80's she was one of the top models in the world. It's one of my favorite songs.
Briefly met her in 1988... I was on tour with a thrash band, she was on tour in St. Louis. She stepped onto the hotel elevator we were on. A beautiful woman and we were a motley crew, to say the least. I immediately recognized her because this song was such a huge MTV hit when I was in high school. She was with her guitar player... they were both interested in our story, an immediate respect for another touring band, even if on the opposite end of the musical spectrum.
i think of this kind of song as lounge music.. anything thats classy, chill, and what you want to listen to when lounging around having a drink and smoking a cig with style
Always good to teach the hubby who is the original singer of a song!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 We all learn something new every day!!!!! That’s why we get out of bed everyday!!!!! So says Austin Tx!!!!!! 😎🍸
Sade is so "smooth" her music is great. "Your Love Is King" and "Sweetest Taboo" are a few of her other hits that I've enjoyed. Thanks for this reaction. This was circa 1985.
Thank you for finally reacting to Sade! The woman version of Seal IMO. Both artists have such a vast array of quality music. Would love to see more of your reactions to both Seal and Sade. Please react to Seal's live in Paris version of Deep Water.
Sophia Loren was my first crush as a child.....but as soon as Sade started making music all of that changed. Sade has been my fantasy crush for my entire, long life
90% of British people born in the mid/late 80s were conceived with Sade providing the background music !
Yes Diamond Life was the go to "seduction" album of the 80's.
I’m in the U.S. and I was about to post that any Sade CD was a panty dropper. It sure helped me back in the day.
@@billybee3423 My older brother swore by Isaac Hayes Hot Buttered Soul as the 70's equivalent.
That is no joke.
United States as well… No Ordinary Love
This woman is a LEGEND!!!! She is just amazing. Always amazing.
Greatest female voice of all time, her voice is angelic
The epitome of class and style...I think she could probably make anyone fall in love with her. That voice is unlike any other.
silky smooth it's irresistible
she is the best example: you dont have to lock like a btch to have success...
Sade was born in Nigeria and moved to England aged 4. So we count her as British ! She's twice been honoured by The Queen for services to music.
Her Mother WAS British
@@arts872 Yep, her mom is a white English lady lol
She went to my school
No, we "count her a British" because she IS British.
@@Darrell7777 us brothers be getting down all over the world 🤣🤣🤣
She was born in Nigeria and has sold over 60_million album's, love her classy looks and smooth delivery. Sweetest Taboo is my favorite.
Update: 75 million worldwide
Sweetest Taboo is such a jam
My favourite is Is It A Crime? , but yeah, can't go wrong with either
She went to my school in Essex england
Nigeria or Ethiopia?
"Sweetest Taboo" and "No Ordinary Love" next please!!!!
Yeah …The Sweetest Taboo (official live video from San Diego) 🔥
ahh No Ordinary Love good one
perfect choices. no ordinary love is my favorite sade song.
Is it a crime?
This band was awesome live. That's when you really get to appreciate how good her rhythm section is. The bass lines in this are beautiful.
I really like this lady
Yeah, she’s always had the best musicians around her.
Sade sings to men.
All men are in love with her.
No lies detected.
Sade the greatest! Please do more of her music. She’s unmatched like FORREAL! CHERISH THE DAY
Scary thing is. She sounds even better live. Seen her many times. She's just as sweet in person as her voice is.
Never saw Sade live but did watch/listen to a recording from one of her live shows played on a high end sound system; you're right she sounded more amazing.
I've seen hundreds of live shows but sad to say never saw Sade
Best concert I ever saw and I have been to over 100's of shows

Fell in love with her voice the first time I heard her decades ago..... and thats never changed.
Sade is pure class. Saw her way back in the day at Ronnie Scott's club in Soho. That's the real Soho in London. All her albums are really exceptionally good.
Ronnie Scott's is on my bucket list for sure.
@@josephgallagher945 It's well worth going to.
I've always said Sade has a "champagne voice". Not sure where I came up with that but it suits her so well.
I absolutely adore Sade! She is smooth, jazzy, and her voice is like silk! Sade is a British artist she had many many hits in the eighties and nineties! Check out some of her other hits like, Sweetest Taboo, Is It A Crime, No Ordinary Love, Cherish The Day, Kiss of Life, and many more! She is a vibe and is played when I’m alone with my guy!❤️❤️
She and her music are legendary!! Definitely worth exploring her whole catalogue of music!
She was Born in Nigeria but brought up in London England, Nigeria is an ex British Colony just like America. LOL.
Is it a Crime that you don’t know who Sade is? I say yes it is… Sade is fantastic.
Sade is ultimate baby making music 🎶 highly recommend your love is king
So many classics from Sade "Jezebel", "Fear", "The Sweetest Taboo", "Is It A Crime", "Kiss Of Life", "King Of Sorrow", "Paradise", "Hang On To Your Love", "Nothing Can Come Between Us", "Pearls"...

For her work in music, she was awarded the CBE( Commander British Empire ). 1 step below Dame (Knighthood). Great song!
I immediately think of Mr. Video when I see this, and miss his music reactions. His ongoing crush was always so fun to watch. The Sade pillow was classic.
Yes!!! He fell in love 😅😍
I miss that guy!
Adele, Sade, Amy......Brit girls are tops.
"Kiss of Life" "No Ordinary Love"
Honestly, this band had hit after hit! Dive into the rabbit hole, you won't be disappointed.
“Never as Good as the First Time”, “By Your Side” & No Ordinary Love” & “ Sweetest Taboo” are my favourites…❤️
Summer vibes, car windows wound down, a young engineer driving home to west London mid 80's, Sade's ethereal, yearning voice making everything right
A few weeks ago I had an operation and they were playing it in the OR when I walked in. No joke.
Sade is just amazing! All her albums are pure class. I''m waiting anxiously for their new record.
I feel for those who didn't grow up in this era of Music. We can't explain it, you just have to keep listening.💯👍🏾
There is truly only one Sade. The smooth, soulful, classic voice from a woman of total elegance, grace and class. Love her music. No Ordinary Love should be your next.
She was my favorite pop diva of the eighties. That voice is silky smooth.
Sade - By Your Side! This woman is a goddess!!
What a beautiful voice!
Quite possibly the finest “everything” from pretty much any generation. Beautiful in every aspect.
I had a male friend that was really a looker dude, and this song always made me think of him. A great song. Love that sax.
brings back memories.. she was on all the time in the 80's... the background music in every cafe, fashion store etc etc
Sade was the bomb back in the day.
Still is for some of us..
Still is. Like a fine wine.
She still is

Lex nailed it! Definitely had a sort of Caribean tropicicana type feel where the idea of casino's and cruise ships come to mind! Miami feel as well!

the sweetest gift is an incredible song by her.
She has a Sweet Silky Voice you can NEVER Forget!!! TRUELY AMAZING!! 👍💯💜😁
Sade aka Shawday is my woman. One my favorite artist. Her catalog of music is really good.
i think of this kind of song as lounge music.. anything thats classy, chill, and what you want to listen to when lounging around having a drink and smoking a cig with style
Love me some Sade. I have seen and worked thousands of shows . She was one of the best for sure . Like Silk and Sleeping Bags comfortable
Shes so amazing with so many great songs
yall need to video of her performing live, is Epic, and she is adorable, so sensuous and just seemed real, great react!
Sade is a queen forever. Will always love everything Sade.
Your relentless smile throughout the reaction -
Sade and my linguini and clam sauce… that was getting busy date night.
One of the coolest voices of all time love her
I loved this song back in the day. I was 24. I still love her stuff.
Always good to teach the hubby who is the original singer of a song!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 We all learn something new every day!!!!! That’s why we get out of bed everyday!!!!! So says Austin Tx!!!!!! 😎🍸
Sade the sophisticated beauty of her time, a look smooth and clean.
Sade’s talent - and her husband’s talent - were a gift to humanity (n a rare coincidence)
Sade is legend man. This shit goes hard. A whole world of music from the 80s that these new cats don’t know about. There’s gold out there
No Ordinary Love, Cherish The Day, Sweetest Taboo... Stunning x
Sade is so "smooth" her music is great. "Your Love Is King" and "Sweetest Taboo" are a few of her other hits that I've enjoyed. Thanks for this reaction. This was circa 1985.
She’s right it definitely has a tropical, Miami vice feel to it. You nailed it Lex
She still looks and sounds great today at 63. So many hits and such a great band too. Been playing since the 80's. Sade Adu from Nigeria.
The best ever!! Sade has nothing but hit after hit. Watch any of her concert hits and you’ll see what I mean!! Classic!!
Watching Lex smile and groove to a tune makes my day!
Always was an awesome song I'm 59 still love this song CLASSSSS.
Beautiful song
I could listen to her sing the telephone book and be mesmerized. Such a sultry and sexy voice.
Thank you for finally reacting to Sade! The woman version of Seal IMO. Both artists have such a vast array of quality music. Would love to see more of your reactions to both Seal and Sade. Please react to Seal's live in Paris version of Deep Water.
Everybody had a crush on this Beautiful Nigerian Queen. I still do
Such a fun song to play. Very simple chords, and the whole band gets into the groove in a blink of an eye :)
I love Sade, I still listen to her songs often.
Best concert I ever saw and I have been to 100's of shows
What a silky smooth beautiful voice❤️
The “coast to coast LA to Chicago” line is fire
Sade is amazing. Sooo classy. I've always loved her stuff.
Haha moms music: makes me feel old 😆
Love the 80's!!
Sade made some more great hits!
Thx for reacting!
🎤🎶💜
Thanks guys!
Sadé is one of the 'voice of a generation' and sooo velvety smooth.
Talented, gorgeous ... what's left to say?
Gorgeous woman with the voice to match...good Sunday "hangover" music.
This song is a whole magic spell
Sade is my biggest crush! Love her music...more . more!
You could spend all next year reacting to all her stuff. Heavenly.
Sophia Loren was my first crush as a child.....but as soon as Sade started making music all of that changed.
Sade has been my fantasy crush for my entire, long life
The irony here is Sade's silk voice is The Smooth Operator here.
Gorgeous.
You can't get any better than Sade singing Smooth Soulful Jazz, she's the best...
Some of the best baby making music you will ever hear❤️ one of my favorites is “By Your Side”
Classy. Smooth. Wonderful.
Love this song, her delivery of this song is beautiful
Lex always hitting on all cylinders. Sipping cocktails on the 18+ casino boat swaying to Sade grooves and drawing jack's and aces.
Her voice was everywhere for two decades.
Sade is nice jazzy music. Great voice. Always liked her. Pretty woman too.
Now do Buffalo Stance by Neneh Cherry. More 80's pop would be fun.
Such a haunting voice one of my favorites
Dancing the cha-cha to Sade.
One of my first celebrity crushes. Beautiful woman.
Have loved Sade FORVER! So smooth and good! THE best baby making music for sure! 😂
It has a very Brazilian jazz vibe to it, it’s such a beautiful song.
Fancy getting smooth operator and smooth criminal mixed up. What a dope.
Sade ....By Your Side...is one of her best...
"Sweetest Taboo".. The best!! Video is fire as well!! Years passed and we heard nothing from Sade. Then she hit us with ." Soldier' !... 🔥
