Most Of My Lyrics Are

When I Was Young, People Were Almost Identified Solely By The Kind Of Music They Liked. People Fell Into Categories Of Who Liked What.

All The Cliches Of Glamorous Sophistication Have Little Appeal To Me. Do I Want To Live The British Version Of 'dynasty?' No Thanks!

I Only Make Records When I Feel I Have Something To Say. I'm Not Interested In Releasing Music Just For The Sake Of Selling Something. Sade Is Not A Brand.

I Am Fairly Classless Because It Is Very Difficult To Class Someone Who Comes From A Mixed Marriage.

To Be A Mother You Must Be Strong. Even If You Don't Feel It, You Have To Pretend.
