@antigonerising, sis...your Sade taste...what is going on?? Also, By Your Side is one of my ALL-TIME FAVORITE SONGS. Heartless sons of putains. Miiiiiiiiind your business! Nah fr, anything I have ranked from 1-23 is a 5-star winner, so you shouldn't give too much weight to my lower ranks. But when I have to assign preference I find that I favor the middle of their discography over the early and end albums, Love Deluxe in particular.

I think the correct spelling in Sweetest Tabbouleh.
Great Top 5. Happy with any of them winning.

10. Your Love Is King (15): This has always been a pretty sexy tune, with that beat, saxophone and vocals. I do like it quite a bit, but I prefer the melodies of other songs in this RD. 9. By Your Side (17): I used to like it more several years ago. It's definitely a mood. Recently I've leaned into songs with a bit more of dynamics, and this was a bit more monotonous. But I do think it's a pretty good tune and easily deserving a spot in the top 10. 8. Hang on to Your Love (4): It's away been a Sade favorite of mine. I love the more sophistipop vibe of it, with exquisite production, instrumentation, melody, and vocals. 7. Cherish the Day (16): I went back and forth on this song. It has a bit more interesting production than BYS, for example, but I preferred the melodies of other songs by Sade in this RD. 6. Kiss of Life (12): This felt bubbly while sexy and pop. Great production, much brighter vocals, and interesting instrumentation. Definitely sounds like a bridge of 80s/90s Sade. Great top 5!! All are in my top 7

No reveals today, but I want to share one of my favorite tracks on Stronger Than Pride.
The production is ACES.

"...Don't lay awake at night Thinking about your worries Thinking about your problems Don't lay awake at night Thinking about your worries Keep looking..."
i think of this song on sleepless nights & (try to) get myself out of bed to do something productive

Welcome to the top 5!
Two of us get a perfect ranking and two of you lose their #1 with this 80s track.

A HUGE hit didn't make the top 3. I thought for sure this one would!
Two more #1s are lost and two more perfect rankings are gained.

Tonight I leave you with another one of my favs:
This is another track on Love Deluxe that I feel like sort of bridges the 80s and 90s sound in their catalog. Gorgeous! I've always thought this was the template for some modern R&B tracks such as Beyoncé's "I Miss You" for example

ngl I clutched my pearls a little bit at that rank for IIAC. I get chills just thinking about the ending!
Anything left would be a deserving #1, but I have 1, 19, and 20 left so obviously I'm rooting for my own #1 to take the W. In the meantime I'm going to go find a good lovers' rock to hide behind in case my 19 and 20 actually took those songs out of the running lol

5. Is it a crime? (7): A great song for sure. The sensual saxophone, the jazzy arrangement that takes us for a trip, the dynamic vocals, the perfect percussion. Great composition. I just liked other songs a bit better.
4. Paradise (6): I had this at #3 at some point, considering my love for the Latin influence here. I remember really liking this song at that time, with that percussion and vocals. I still love it, but in the end I fell to the spell of Hang On and Never As Good... which I felt just a tad more interesting.
So I’m delighted my top 3 IS the top 3. I’ll be happy with any of them being atop :)
