Title: Sade: smooth operator onstage.
Review: Not too many folks would think that Sade has a commanding presence in concert, but this pretty good live disc shows that she can hold her own in front of the mike. The track listing is rather similar to the show I attended in Chicago last year, and the bulk of the songs are from her last CD, "Lover's Rock." The most compelling of these songs is her rendition of "Somebody Already Broke My Heart," in which she warns a new partner not to mistreat her the way her prior lovers did. Of course, there are also the requisite singles: "Smooth Operator," "Your Love is King," and "Sweetest Taboo." Live discs don't always appeal to me, but "Lovers Live" is a solid release that comes with my recommendation.
