Customer Reviews
Sade's "Soldier of Love" the first great song of the decade, a modern masterpiece!
I heard this as a promo for Season 6 of "Lost" and fell in love with it instantly. After buying it, and listening to the lyrics carefully, I love it even more. An instant classic! Great moody atmospheric sound, it already has over 60 plays on my iPod. Can't wait for the album!!!
Left field from Sade
If you are an unapologetic Sade fan and have followed her music from the early 80's, you might find the song "Soldier of Love" too much of a paradigm shift for your mental musical imprint that is [or has been] - 'Sade'. The rich, meandering river of heart, soul and life experience; the unabating resonance of her voice and lyrics; the ever lopey bass guitar; and the distinctive band line-up contributions, are all missing here. The first listen resulted in confusion & disappointment. Whilst her last album 'Lovers Rock' was a step down from her earlier albums' heights, "Soldier of Love" is a step away from her 'roots'. Heavily engineered, a militaristic tattoo beat and over-worked 'electro-cello' stride alongside a pseudo-'Ho' chorus chant. Sade's voice seems disparate and somehow misplaced in this setting. Her lyrics - "It's a wild, wild west - I'm doing my best (to survive)", perhaps have a literal meaning. At a crossroads, this is a very different Sade, and I'll have to wait for the album to decide if I'll take this new turn with her. Whilst change may be the only true constant in life, this new direction for Sade seems to be - change for change's sake.
