Please Please… Don’t Quiz Me! on Instagram: "40 years ago on October 4, 1985 Sade released “The Sweetest Taboo”. It was the lead single off the band’s second album Promise. The track was Sade’s second consecutive number one on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart after “Smooth Operator”. The music video was filmed in New York City and Andalusia, Spain. #sade #sweetesttaboo #80smusic #80snostalgia #80sthrowback #helenfolasadeadu"

Unforgettable Concerts on Instagram: "Sade performing “Like A Tattoo” live in San Diego, 1993 — a masterclass in subtlety and emotion. 🖤 Off the 1992 album Love Deluxe, the song tells the story of a soldier haunted by the scars of his past, carried “like a tattoo.” Sade’s live rendition strips the song down to its essence — her voice, warm and intimate, floating over a soft jazz groove that feels timeless. What makes this performance so powerful isn’t vocal power or production — it’s restraint.
