Sade (First Ever TV Interview) 1983 on Paul Cooke Music

Truly, P. A. Cooke, it is a pleasure to be able to speak with you. I appreciate your contribution to Diamond Life, especially Sally. Were you replaced by Martin Ditcham, more or less, as the Sweetest Taboo was composed? How was it working with Mike Pela? Were you present when Portrait Records was acquired by Sony, under the music-producing company, Epic?

haha you're crazy.. i normally don't allow men to watch but for sade i'll do practically anything.. she is so beautiful, so sexy.. she has that older woman sex appeal...

Who was "Maureen" ("Promise," 1985)?

Yeah if i can correct you i did contribute, I created all the original drum parts on the first album, then got sacked? We all contributed as a partnership in equal parts...Sade was a business partnership in that respect

Yeah man its the truth she wears the trousers in the band:) In fact the rest of the band are very passive and girly types, dont drive, like decorating and flower arranging")

I can maybe fix you up:) Can I watch?

Have not got a clue? does it matter to you? Maybe in-regards to her gay leanings maybe?

NO, I did not know she was gay. Not that I think so now. In my opinion running a career let along a music band can't be easy. I'm sorry you were sacked but, Sade has a responsiblity to make sure that she puts out a great product. Even if it means firing someone whom does not contribute to that.

Thank you for posting this. Its rare to see a Sada interview.

she does dress kind of butch.

You claim to "personally" be acquainted with Sade. Allow me to ask this: Could you provide us, fans of Sade, with any insight into the true meaning behind "The Sweetest Taboo" (Portrait Records, 1985)?

You say you are personally acquainted with Sade. Allow me ask this: May you grace us, her fans, with any insight into the true meaning of Sade's "Sweetest Taboo" (Portrait Records, 1985)?

sade was in love with men especially that one spanish guy in that one video, plus she has a baby.. SHe is not gay, i'm a lesbian and I can tell, but if she was gay I would go for her lol

of course Sade is gay, i thought it was public knowledge?

Yes she sacked me because I was from Hull:)
