Sade's new album "Soldier of Love"

After 9 long years the Queen of Soul has finally returned with her new album "Soldier of Love" which is like a breathe of fresh air. Her music is so unique and awe inspiring it has continued to be played on radio stations long after last album came out in 2000 (Lovers Rock). After almost a Decade, it seems like we have been holding our breath until this moment. Her music and unique style is still as moving as it was ten years ago, and I for one am glad she hasn't changed at all! Being Named after this singer I naturally grew up listening to her songs and I can remember being moved by her sultry voice and powerful lyrics. Although younger people may not be as familiar with her music, people of all ages and backgrounds can relate to her tales of Love, Loss, Happiness, regret. Her voice paints a color palate of Life and everyone can find a piece of themselves in it. I am so glad she has finally come back to claim her throne as Queen of Soul, and I hope she will continue to bless us with her music.
