Movie Reviews of Sade - Live Concert Home Video
Movie Review: A Fun Night in San Diego
Summary: 5 Stars
This live San Diego concert cannot to be missed by any Sade fan. This is the best of her live concert footage, capturing the music and the artist better than other efforts. You can just feel the excitement of being there in this lavishly produced concert film that brings both the music and the unique relationship of Sade to her loyal fans to the forefront.
It is a performance bare of costume changes and pyrotechnics, as it is just about the music we love, giving it an intimacy in spite of the large venue. Sade has never been lovelier and her vocals are surrounded by bass, horns, and precussion from fine jazz musicians like horn player Rick Braun. You get seventeen songs here and yet you're sorry when it ends.
It is worth noting that this band has stayed together during years of absence by Sade herself, an integrity and loyalty displayed in a business without any. It is the same kind of relationship she has with her fans. Late in the concert Sade leans down and accepts roses from one of those fans. No one tries to rush the stage and grab her and she gives the fan a gentle kiss as a thank you, in a day and age where your not suppose to. It is a classy moment from a classy woman.
There is a particularly intimate moment where Sade sets down and speaks of a personal encounter with a man in a New York bar who told her his story of love and war which became the haunting "Like a Tattoo." Though deeply felt songs such as this one are scattered throughout, the overall feel of the concert is upbeat and fun.
Exotic rhythms take you from sandy shores to romantic nightclubs and a happy feeling embraces the viewer like arms of love surrounding them and singing them a lullaby. This San Diego concert is the best one out there, and a wonderful reminder to fans of why we fell in love with this singer and her band, and why we will continue to support Sade no matter how much time elapses between albums.
Movie Review: Sweet as Cherry Pie, wild as Friday night!!
Summary: 5 Stars
It really DOESN'T get any better than this. Sure, Sade is cool, but she's a little wild, too. A lot of talented, professional people put this DVD together, capped off by the musicians, who are simply fabulous. Every aspect is musically brilliant, I think: writing, vocals, drums, piano, sax, guitar, bass, percussion and last, but by no means least, trumpet. And the "cherry" on top of the sundae is Sade. Okay, I'm going to stop gushing, now.
By the way, I don't believe T. Brown is any musician.
Movie Review: I loved It !!!!!!!!!!

Look, If you want to see something really special, buy this dvd. I was absolutely swept awy by the performance, not just by SADE, but her band is top notch.
The editing of this dvd is great, and designed to really create an exciting I AM THERE concert experience.
I could not forget it after I saw the concert, and told everybody about how great the performance was.
Sade's beauty is heartstopping, her calm and passion are electrifying.
Those who choose to pan this excellent performance , should go back for a second look.

Movie Review: Sade Live , my opinion.
Summary: 5 Stars
The only reason you would be reading this review would be to help you make a determination about making this purchase. That part is easy because the answer is an unreserved yes. Slick editing and so many cameras make this a really visual experience, even though they take a rather basic approach to this concert. There are no special effects here or unusual lighting tricks so common these days at concerts and somehow this is so strangely appropiate for Sade's style of music. It's a very stripped down concert so you can simply concentrate on the music. Sophie Muller is at the helm as director as she has with so many of Sade's videos and her style of direction really makes a great show even better. The skill and prowess of this band is so obvious. Along with Sade's regular superb band members is the legendary Rick Braun who lends his talent on trumpet. An exciting, and at times very heartfelt performance. Being live is so liberating as opposed to the rather confined, although wonderful studio classics we have heard from Sade over all of these years. This concert really puts a fresh face on all of these songs we have heard so many times. My last thing to say is why are you still reading this and not buying this musical and visual experience yourself?
