Hello SMCers.

I know it's not my turn, but there seems to be a lull in the action with the SMC, and I just put up an album for another board I frequent so I figured I'd share it here.

Sade- Lovers Rock

This is something to put on for those romantic evenings at the house/apartment/dorm/street corner. I hated Sade as a kid because her videos were always on VH1 and I thought the music was boring. I've changed my opinion as I got older, and this is probably the finest record of her career.

I don't expect any of you to be blown away by it, and some of you will probably be like "wtf is this shit?". But she has an amazing and sultry voice, and her band provide the perfect accompanaiment. Highlights of the record for me are Slave Song, Lovers Rock, and the single By Your Side.

Don't feel you need to comment on any of it since this isn't a standard weekly pick, but I won't be disappointed if you choose to do so.

Enjoy!

    I grew up listen to her 'clasic' stuff but never had the will to pick this album.

    I guess this is the time...

    this is a great album. definately did not expect to ever see this pop-up on the smc let alone the other music forum.

    out of respect for the SMC, I'll give this a go :D

    all I can think of right now is how much Smooth Operator annoyed me. But yeah, that was like 15 years ago.

    I can't get this to download properly. It appears to download but it spins its wheels when trying to decompress. tried it 4 times.

    ok, it worked fine. thanks.
  • Classic album. Though I probably wouldn't have listened to it unless I saw it posted here! ;) So smooth and relaxing, yet deep in its own way.

    Cheers.

    Ok, today on rotation will be

    Sade - Lovers Rock
    Joanna Newsome - Ys

    should be a nice relaxing day.

    I like Sade and her albuns but i think this one really lacks that 'killer song(s)'.

    But it is still a great pick for some relaxing time.
