TheRayTwins: THROWBACK : SADE "THE SWEETEST TABOO"

"The Sweetest Taboo" is the lead single from the English group Sade's second studio album, Promise (1985). The song peaked at # 31 on the UK Singles Chart, it fared considerably better in the U.S., where it reached number five on the Billboard Hot 100 in March 1986, remaining in the top forty for thirteen weeks. It also became the band's second consecutive #1 hit on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart, following "Smooth Operator". She will be going on tour beginning in June 2011 and I’m sure that fans will sell out her shows where ever she goes. One thing for sure the cd’s fly off the shelves as soon as the cd is released. I have been a fan for a while .Sade gains new with each single and cd released.

Soldier of Love is only the 6th studio album the band Sade have released during their 25 year career, and the first since Lovers Rock in 2000. For Sade herself, as the lynchpin of the group's songwriting effort, it's a simple matter of integrity and authenticity. "I only make records when I feel I have something to say. I'm not interested in releasing music just for the sake of selling something. Sade is not a brand."
