Sade’s New Single Makes History On The Smooth Jazz Top 20

History has been made as Sade has the first vocal tune to hit No. 1 on the Smooth Jazz Top 20 Countdown with “Soldier of Love.” The #1 position is based on Mediabase monitoring and measured by total audience reach. Sade’s historic hit single will be reflected on the first Smooth Jazz Top 20 show of 2010 the weekend of January 2. According to Mediabase, “Soldier of Love” was heard by 2,410,000 smooth jazz listeners since it was first aired on December 8. That was even more remarkable given that the song had only a partial week of airplay.

In addition, “Soldier of Love” becomes the first song to actually debut at #1 on the Smooth Jazz Top 20.

“Soldier Of Love,” which Sade co-produced with Mike Pela, was written by Sade along with longtime collaborators Andrew Hale, Stuart Matthewman and Paul Spencer Denman and is from her forthcoming CD of the same name. Recorded in England, it will be released on February 9. It’s Sade’s first official CD since the multi-platinum release of Lovers Rock in 2000, which featured the smooth jazz singles “By Your Side,” “Somebody Already Broke My Heart” and “Lovers Rock.”
