    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.

    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.

    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.

One of these situations is a cruise ship. One of these places is a casino or a hotel room connected to the casino.

    I first heard her on the venerable New Wave station KROQ before R&B and pop stations picked her up.
    Bryan Ferry (of Roxy Music) and Paul Weller (of The Jam) also had done smooth songs about the same time this came out.
    Sade killed Live Aid singing "Tell Me Why".
    And yeah, full lips, big forehead and all - she was (is) gorgeous!!!

    Helen Sade Adu is a straight up QUEEN. Every song the woman put out is bad to the bone

    It has a very Brazilian jazz vibe to it, it’s such a beautiful song.

    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.

    SADE=GOLD. So sad we grew uo in the 80s thinking all this music was 'normal'. I wish everyday I could go back

    The ultimate wedding song is By Your Side, by Sade. I’m a little biased since that was our wedding song lol!!
