No this post isn't about love; I don't do the sappy stuff (anymore :).

I have been listening to Sade all day. What a gift, another album to guide me. My favorite song of hers is It's Only Love That Gets You Through. My yoga teacher plays it in class sometimes and, after a particularly rough day, the heat and the sweat and the song always make me cry.

I find it interesting that the reviews I've read, referencing the ten-year lapse since Lover's Rock, call Sade unhurried, mysterious at best and unproductive at worst. I wonder who can say how much an artist should or should not produce?

If she never sang another word, I'd be good for the next thirty years.
