here i am, standing in my own bgirl stance…

deep and shallow thoughts from various areas in my brain - t.tara turk

Sade. I vote YES.

January 11th, 2010

It could be because I’m biased towards Capricorns (shout out to Imani Uzuri - my fellow “Lucy”) but I just love Capricorn singers. I do. And every since I went to Sade at Madison Square Garden by myself because it didn’t even occur to me to invite anyone else, I was hooked. It actually started earlier than that. When I was in high school my mother was ALL about getting our hair done every two weeks (it was Detroit, home of the 24 hour beauty salons) even though sometimes our phone was shut off. Anyway, Detroit beauticians epitomize classy to me. They always dressed nice even though they were on their feet burning some hair all day. There was one lady at Vantinus Hair Salon in the Riverfront Towers who used to play Sade ALL the time. The feeling from watching a classy woman (since I was an uncomfortable pimply chunky teenager) listening to classy music has inspired me from that point on. So Sade will cause me to drop what I’m doing and pay attention. Plus her business is so not in the streets like other nameless light bulbs out there.

So she’s back with “Soldier of Love” and, yes, it sounds just like Sade but that’s what I expect. She’s not out there trying to break music molds because she already did thanks. Bossip has her new video here:

Check it out BEFORE Sony swipes it.

I just realized also that I’ve been wearing my hair like Sade for the past 6 months! Coincidence? I think not.

I’ll be at the concert and this time I’ll remember to ask the BF. Heh.
