Sade - Soldier of Love single


Today, one of my all-time favorite female artists has just dropped the single to her album (also see previous post) due out worldwide on Feb 8, 2010. Please make sure you support real music and pre-order the album here. Its been almost ten years since her last album, Lovers Rock , back in 2000 and she is coming back hard with this single...I'm hoping to hear NAS on a remix in the near future...but we'll see...
