Sade - By Your Side

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

From the unassuming lead of a long awaited comeback album, to what is now probably Sade's most beloved song - arguably surpassing the likes of Your Love Is King and Sweetest Taboo.



It doesn't feel THAT long ago since this was released to me
Bonkers that I remember (the messy TO MY EARS) The Neptunes remix getting more airplay/attention than the original at the time.


I love how this song has grown in popularity, it's a total first dance at a wedding classic.

You think I'd leave your side baby
You know me better than that
You think I'd leave you down when you're down on your knees
I wouldn't do that.

Is this a FAVE, and if not WHY?

Oh GOD I've just seen in similar threads this thread already exists How embarrassing

It's just so lush and tender.

 

[VoR]

A perfect song.

 

[RJN]

Beautiful

 

[Sheena]

It’s amazing how many 10/10s old SID has really. There’s a LOT for someone I do like (I own all the albums), but isn’t one of my REAL TOP ECHELON of faves.

 

[Loufoque]

Only Sade could be so subtly tasteful as to have her most enduring classic not to debase itself with a Top 10 placing.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Can we just a moment for this.

 

[lolly]

It cropped up on something we were watching the other night, and I was reminded of its loveliness all over again

 

[Kratz]

It's so gorgeous.
