Check out the newly uploaded video for “Soldier of Love,” Sade‘s first single in a decade.
Sade herself looks as gorgeous as ever. I love the lush feel of the warm color palette against the violent, raging storms in the background–very striking visually.
The video’s focus on sharp, militant choreography and slow-mo imagery (the lasso moments being particularly iconic) are proof that you don’t need to spend thousands of dollars to produce a quality video.
By the way, did anyone else find the lyrics more poignant in visual form? I feel like they’ve never resonated as strongly with me as they do after having watched the video.
I’ve lost the use of my heart, but I’m still alive…
