Sade - Is It A Crime | REACTION 

Fun fact. Sade never actually wanted to be a singer. She started singing as a last resort to pay the bills. Crazy right? Couldn’t imagine music without her.

Sade and Anita Baker is in a class of their own....sublime!👑👑

🌟 Listening to Sade on a rainy day ... it's a whole experience.

Fun Fact! Aaliyah said in an old interview that Sade is her idol. She loved how strong her voice was without oversinging - all while being cool, calm, and collected.

I knew Jack would lose his sh!t listening to the masterpiece! This song is on another level of perfection! 👍😍

Sade's Live performances are even better than that -- takes you to another dimension

Trust me Jack when I say you are not the only man that has to hold back tears when they hear this song! Every time I listen to this song I fight back tears, it's so powerful!!!

Sade's voice is like melted butter. I've loved her since the 80s. So glad you've discovered her!!! 💖💖

She is one of the greatest artists and vocalist of all time. Everyone else has passed Michael, Whitney and Prince.

Her name is “FOLASADE” , Sade is the short version. it is a fairly common Nigerian name as her dad is Nigerian. However, the group was also named Sade as well.

Fun fact this is Aaliyah's favourite Sade track.

One of your best and sincere reactions. Sade is the epitome of an artist. Jack, I keep saying it...you have such a bright future. Keep on keeping on.

Ugghhh Sade!!!! THE GODDESS!! Sooo many GOOD songs! "Like A Tattoo" "Nothin Can Come Between Us" "Never As Good As The First Time" "Soldier Of Love" "Feel No Pain" "Sweetest Taboo" OMG..... You are NOT ready!

Sade " sweetest taboo" .. she is my fav... try kate bush " running up the hill "

I said it on your first Sade reaction "Every song you react to from her is gonna be your favorite" lol and then this woman had the nerve to go on a hiatus for 10 years, come back in 2010 and drop "soldier of love" which is also one of my favorite songs and videos

Yes. Her name is Helen FolaSADE Adu. She’s lead singer of the group by the same name but she also goes by simply Sade.

This is her early career. The first album is in the mid 80s, I believe. My brother use to get ready for his dates listening to this. 🥃💔😏 #Grownfolk'smusic

Sade - "Never as good as the first time" Sade - "Kiss of life" Sade - "By your side" Sade - "The sweetest taboo" Sade - "Love is stronger than pride" Sade - "Paradise" Sade - "Your love is king"

My dad was a guitar player (RIP Daddy) and he would listen to this whole album all the time and then go play on his guitar. This was when mom and him were divorced-this song was his coping to them splitting up. I guess it worked because they eventually remarried. Sade is one of the women who will always be in my musical rotation.

Sade “somebody already broke my heart” live 🔥🔥🔥

I couldn’t agree with you more Jack!! Sade is one of my top 3 favourites as well!! And this song and No Ordinary love are incredible songs!! As you called them an experience ...the lyrics are so beautiful and powerful !! I saw a live performance video of No Ordinary love and it was out of this world!! They sound just like in the video!! Your facial expression said it all!! Awesome reaction 🥰👍🏻😊

More Sade puhleeeease. She’s one of my all time favs. Sweetest Taboo

Sade can sure make you feel some type of way!😊 Her voice has that kind of smooth, soothing sound to it! You shld listen to "By Your Side"!!! Its a beautiful track!!!

Omg I almost shed a tear too 😂 you gotta react to her live stuff too

WOW your hooked, and you didn't even hear " Love is Stronger than Pride" or " Kiss of Life " get ready for another experience on a cosmic spiritual level !!!!!

Her band is called SWEETBACK and they have a couple very good albums out themselves.

Her breathy seduction has s like no other. Per her and the group, they only make new music when they feel they need to, not because they feel they have to. Those of us in the know, understand that her band mates are instrumental masters. And thus when put with her heartbreaking soulful jazz vocals, perfection. The only other singer/band experience I can think of that even came close was perhaps Anita Baker and her band.

The queen of silky smooth voices of R & B! You’re right Jack her voice is unique and addictive.

I know Jack...go ahead my guy...Sade is other-worldly!🌎Next level in so many ways...timeless....🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I can just listen to this over and over and i never get bored.

I love the stank face😂😂😂

-Next from Sade should be "By your side", please! And do not forget to go through all of George Michael's singles!

Sade is so smooth!

It was Aaliyah's favorite song from her. She was her biggest inspiration. ❤️Sade is from another world, you're right, she's too good. 🤦‍♀️

Jack, Sade’s band is called Sweetback. I love this song!!!

Sade is truly one of the greats. I love her so much. When you do Sade again plsss react to Paradise of Hang On to Your Love!!

"Paradise" by Sade "Emotional Rollercoaster" by Vivian Green "Good Man" India Arie

She’s my favorite of all time!! Hands down🖤

Sade will always be one of my favourite female singers

Her name is Helen Sade Abu Brasile. She's a siren! In live concert, four measures into the first song and you fall in love with her. The rest of the evening is a beautiful, ethereal dream!

This is in my top 3 reaction vids from you, Jack. The sheer joy and elation in your reaction clinched it for me! Sade is one of a kind. Check out King of Sorrow from her. ✌🏽

Sade is a band, it is also her first name, gotta see "love is stronger than pride", "never thought I'd see the day", "king of sorrow" and "pearls", there's so many others as well

Sweetback! Amel larrieux from groove theory has a song with her band on their album

Jack U need to hear Paradise, Hang On To Your Love, Love is Stronger Than Pride, Nothing Can Come Between Us, Memaids and It's Only Love That Gets Us Through.

Thee. Incomparable. Sade. An exquisite artist and an all-time FAVORITE.

You have to do Your Love Is King. For me it’s by far her best song ❤️

You want Sade 2 steal ya soul?? Her best song ever, is "Love is Stronger than Pride", u will melt in ur chair with chills up your body, and I will be here watching....👀I love her so much.💋 She heals my soul. ❤

Love Is Stronger Than Pride by her will have you in a trance! It is so good, her voice is ethereal heaven on that track

Bro, if you EVER get the chance to see her live in concert... GO! I saw her in 2001 and i can still remember how blown away i was after seeing her.

when i was a kid in the 1980's, my mom's favorite was Luther Vandross, my favorite was/is Michael Jackson, and my dad's favorite was Sade. even today, he shares your opinion of her music.

Wait...did you just sum this song up and the 80's into crack alley, prostitute, 70's disco John Travolta, and a bagel lmfao!!! You be killin me with some of your off the cuff comments some times haha

Your appreciation of SADE is why I'm now subscribed. She is perfection.

I knew you was gonna fall in love with the way she sings the chorus and instrumentals...

Keep Looking- Sade❤❤❤💕

Sade is the group lead singer and she is Nigerian and British most of her music filmed in England

Sade got you in your feelings Jack. Don't feel bad, she have all of us in our feelings

I just love Sade ❤️listen to her all the time she is simply legendary great react and I admire you appreciate our older beautiful timeless sungs real music❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Jodeci I'm still waiting & my heart belongs to you

I had the pleasure of Seeing Sade in Concert 2011. It was one of the Best Concerts in my Life 😊🤗

Hands down, the best reactor on RU-vid. Please react to Patti Labelle-ISN'T IT A SHAME, Teena Marie-OUT ON A LIMB, Stephanie Mills-HOME live at the Apollo. Thanks Jack

Sade makes you want to burst with emotions of sadness & pure joy. Listening to Sade never gets old for me...

The live version of this tho, especially that second verse...*chef’s kiss*

Love it!! Thank you for your reaction. Yes, you are correct. Sade is the group name. Stay blessed.

she has you hypnotized! welcome to the club!

It comes from her name. They get together every 5 to 7 years whenever she feels she has something to release. I saw her live in new york , jones beach theater...i love her and she is an amazing performer. She is stunning. That was filmed in new york.

I love her too! So glad you appreciate her beauty and skillful artistry 🥰

We love her since Nigeria Proud of her She’s my best artist forever She should make a featuring with Witney Houston. The duo would be great.

Elegant sophisticated soul at its very best can't go wrong with stuff like this!

My man got good taste in music. Your reaction is THE reaction.

React to Tracie Spencer “Tender Kisses”

One of her greatest. Please do Sweetest Taboo, Kiss of Life, Love is Stronger than Pride, and Never as Good as the First Time... anything , really.

Sweetest taboo is one my favorite songs from her

Thank you for doing "Is It A Crime"! This is my favorite Sade song! And one of my favorite songs of ALL time! Can you please do Floetry's "Getting Late"?

This is from around 86 and her real name is Helen Folesade Adu and her mom called her Sade and her band was so tight that they wrote all the songs together and decided from almost the beginning to call the group Sade. Need to see her do this song and many others on youtube at the Humphreys concert in San Diego in 1991 in a white gown that she designed. She started out as a fashion designer. She's like the famale version of Barry White with all those sensual songs. And no autotune!

"Sweetest taboo" would be the next one!!

Sade Adu & Sweetback a match made in Heaven Live they are as sublime as in the studio

I recommend “feel no pain” or “like a tattoo”

YES... her voice is beautiful. My parents had to play her music to shut my crying when i was a baby. Tru story!

dude, your slayed face = my reactions when I listen to Sade (and it's a woman and a group - Helen Sade Adu) One of the most amazing groups of the 80s

This song is in my top three Sade songs.

I appreciate that you picked up on the arrangement and composition to the music and not just her awesome voice and vocal phrasing. It’s the musicianship that makes the song so impactful and allows Sade to use her voice to convey so much emotion. You should review the video and read the word that is written on the window. It is in Spanish and it goes to the heart of why although she is still hung up on him, she left before he could arrive.

When she does this song live you can really hear how deep her voice can go

Sade's "Pearls" always makes me cy. Always.

You shoumd check out Sade's song Babyfather😁 its from 2010 so its newer but still has an amazing melody and she gives such a beautiful and captivating delivery💖💖💖 her song Cherry Pie is also a good one to check out!

It was rainy season when I bought this album back when it came out in the 80s. I was just 20 years old and used to love listening to this song from my upstairs window watching the rain fall in California.. Just was thinking there was a lot of life ahead of me and curious as to where it would take me.. And what a ride it has been!! Still love this album.

Her full name is Helen Folasade Adu.. she named the group after her name !!

Sade is amazing a beautiful timeless voice

PLEASE DO KISS OF LIFE, BULLET PROOF SOUL, SOMEBODY ALREADY BROKE MY HEART BY HER

i love your appreciation for instrumentation ...the little instruments ...live music real artist....love it!

"By your side" and "baby father" are 2 of my favorites Sade song.

This is my absolute favorite reaction not just from you but of all reaction channels I follow.

YOU WILL FALL MUCH MORE DEEP IN LOVE WITH HER IF YOU... ON YOUR OWN TIME WATCH SADE’S LIVE CONCERT *LOVERS LIVE*. BRUH, SHE MOVED THE WORLD WITH THIS TOUR. SADE WAS ONE OF THE SINGERS MICHAEL JACKSON FELL IN LOVE WITH.

Anita Baker : Been So Long LIVE is magic. I’ve seen her in concert twice (my profile pic is from seeing her last year at Radio City). Class!

One of many Great songs! Sade is an amazing singer.

Helen Folasade Adu, known professionally as Sade Adu or simply Sade, is a Nigerian-born British singer, songwriter, and actress, known as the lead singer of her eponymous band. One of the most successful British female artists in history, she is often recognised as an influence on contemporary music.

Sade is shortened version of her last name...Sadeadu...amazing chanteuse...writes most of her lyrics AND music and her band is awesome! If you ever get a chance check out their instrumentals ....pure fire!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Group and her name ♥️ hands down my favorite song by Sade. The highs and lows of her voice. The intense emotion, powerful ♥️

Incredible... I saw her on Concert at Arena Santiago, Chile... It waa Great... A Goddess

Dude....you have been playing my lady. One of my favorite as well. Some music can get to loud or to soft just chilling at the house. Sade.....smooth. You can listen to it in peace, all day
