As an artist who sings a lot about love (i.e. Hang on to Your Love, No Ordinary Love, Lover’s Pride) it is easy to rank “Your Love is King” as yet another installment in Sade’s praise for love as romantic affection, tenderness and the spiritual connection that bind two people.

However, do not be fooled! This song is also and, I would say, primarily about a woman who is experiencing orgasm because her lover is performing oral sex on her. With her sultry voice to boot, this is Sade at her sensual best…

(By the way, the version is not the original, but at least it’s still with Sade’s voice)
