She is not only beautiful but she has an unbelievable connection with her band.

[jarlgreen]

Wow. This is a masterclass in humility, class and greatness. Many artists could learn a lot from this beautiful lady. Legendary.

[matthewlacey]

and three of these guys have played with her since her first album. Incredible longevity and loyalty

As some people said here, Sade is a band. The band took the name of the singer and frontwoman, but it's not just a singer with a band in her back. Sade Adu used to write the most of the lyrics, but the guys on bass, keyboards and guitar+saxophone made the music. People on drums, vocals, and extra instruments have been changing, but this 4 people have been a real band for more than 3 decades. We have to appreciate that, all these beautiful songs wouldn't exist without these 4 people.

Wow! She is a real beauty, she is talented, she has class, nothing vulgar or provoking, a strong presence on stage! ... it changes a lot comparing to what we see today in 2022 !!! Plus, we can feel respect between them!!!

[DDuncan]

In my humble opinion “The greatest Band”
To grace planet Earth...

[AngeliFernandez]

Like children, listening to their Mama talking to them. Such mutual respect and greatness. Thank you for bringing your gifts to our hearts and Souls.

[jambocoo]

What a genuine sweetheart, I've never seen anyone honor their band members like her. Glad she has a great group of guys like these fellows. Sade is a princess.

[chacho]

she loves them... they love her ... and we love the final result....

[rhonda]

"And this is us" What a woman...what an artist. Acknowledging the talents and gifts of all

[juliorodriguez]

This video of her just "merely" introducing the individual members of Sade is as captivating as any of her music videos. I'm just numb with love for her, I've been a fan for 34 years. To me she's the best ever!

[cqnzzod]

8 best men in the world for one girl, it doesn't get any better than this.

[angelrdiaz]

This is what a true lady looks, sounds and acts like (:. Nothing but Beauty, Grace and Class (:. The Pure Essence Of A Woman PERIOD (:

[angelramondiaz]

[bitterbold]

Now imagine: You have this extraordinary privilege to be in Sade's band, then the most gracious and ravishing woman on earth compliments you with the sweetest words ever...I think this must be what heaven feels like.

[julioquintana]

I was fortunate enough to go to this tour totally last minute, I sat high in the nosebleed section where I could literally touch the roof of the arena! Sade drew me in like it was a small club, the whole concert was a dream, the simplicity of the lighting, the sound of this amazing band, and of course the sexy and soulful Sade. This part where she thanks her band and the audience was a lesson in thankfulness and gratefulness and the reason her band is so tight they can be no other way, and how we love her so❤

[evelynellison]

Some artists forget that without the band, there is no music to compliment the voice. No one man runs the show. Effective production takes a " joint/collaborative effort. You go girl!

[zurynajar]

She is so humble and down to earth ! It rare to see the main singer even acknowledge the band but here you can see the unity ! Real musicians coming together to create magic !!! Long live the Queen of soul, Sade

[elainediamond]

Wow, that's incredible. She's like a queen with her warriors, each of whom she loves and honors. It's rare to see such a real outpouring of heartfelt appreciation, as she acknowledges each mans unique contribution. No wonder they sound so good. That's SO MUCH for posting this precious moment. 😍

[salsadancer]

That voice and she believed in Andrew and Stuart. If she had gone solo we would never have had the sound we hear today. Her loyalty not to go solo is why she is the megastar today.
