Lovers Rock is a great album. They're all good but don't undersell Lovers Rock.

its great, but like, the 5th season of the wire great

man, it's such a bummer that the wife (although she loves her), won't let me listen to sade around the house because it reminds her too much of the smooth jazz station that her mom listened to growing up.
also outlawed are things like zapp & roger or atomic dog or any other lowrider music. remind her of too much of her latina college roommates. :(

Sometimes I think "No Ordinary Love" is the most amazing pieces of music ever, so so so intense... An obvious choice maybe but I can't help it.

xp yeah I was first time I heard it, just chalked it up to aging
wkiw latina college roommates
― The-Reverend (rev), Thursday, 10 December 2009 01:08 (fourteen years ago) link
"No Ordinary Love" is trip-hop (the guitar sound! the vocal melancholia) in a pop context.
I still rep for "Sweetest Taboo" and "Nothing Can Come Between Us."

u guys remember that song "king of sorrow" ? i liked that one a lot
― Do you love me now? (surm), Thursday, 10 December 2009 05:16 (fourteen years ago) link
Oh man, "King of Sorrow." Shit, fucking all of Lovers Rock was/is solid, I ain't gonna front or somehow say it is less good than what came before by equating it to a minor disappointment in a greater body of work—it is its own glacial monster, "Slave Song" is the mouth, etc.

This song was #7 on the "7 o'clock bomb 7" countdown on the local rap/r&b station last night. I was psyched/shocked.

ok, i'm like ready to leave my wife in love with this song, but that video is terrible. like natural born killers meets spike lee steppin routines. still so stoked for the album

I think I've gotten over my lol 00's anal-ness about not DLing leaks of my favorite artists, but this time I think I'll wait. This is something I'd like to hear in one go, on a sofa, and not piecemeal on my ipod in the metro.

i found this

Is that stephen Marley or finley quay on baby father?
― jaxon, Saturday, 30 January 2010 04:21 (fourteen years ago) link
did you not get my webmail, deej?
at any rate, this is a thing of wonder. less immediate and more subtle than the lead single, which led me to expect a very different beast but there are depths here that i will spend a long time absorbing.
― Alex in Montreal, Saturday, 30 January 2010 17:33 (fourteen years ago) link
i only rarely check that email address but i found a link anyway so
yeah this album is way darker than i expected
― average gangsta rap from average gangstas (deej), Saturday, 30 January 2010 20:26 (fourteen years ago) link
there's some pretty deep shit on this album. couldn't give the whole thing the attention it deserved but i blasted it in my car driving home for the second or third time and couldn't help noticing babydaddy for instance had some pretty real lyrics (par for the course really but nice to know she hasn't lost her touch)
bonus: lovers rock is on the playlist right after this much-too-short (and therefore perfect length) album and i keep going "oh damn soldier is over.... wait a minute, lovers rock is mad underrated, i'm gonna give this another listen too, again." ...damn! i'm listening to king of sorrow now... sade (and her band/producer/guitarplayer/lover) is/are really fucking quality, amirong?
― messiahwannabe, Tuesday, 2 February 2010 16:33 (fourteen years ago) link
jesus, lovers rock. and i was thinking soldier kinda blew it out of the water too when it was on before, which means soldiers pretty much bound to become another all-time-fave innit. i can't believe my 50 year old uncle hipped me to this band in the 80's, but i guess that speaks to her universal appeal doesn't it?
― messiahwannabe, Tuesday, 2 February 2010 16:56 (fourteen years ago) link
can i just say "Skin" is fucking incredible 10/10 all time shit

yeah, that's . . . great. much edgier lyrically than i remember sade. and the music is tougher and grittier, too.
