Youtube: Sade, Somebody Already Broke My Heart.
It’s so simple, but the waterdrop hitting on the beat is just *so* effective. Perfect. I still can’t figure out which instrument triggers it. There’s a lead-in time, so I suspect the drummer.
I was thinking about Sade today. Her plethora of hits in the ‘80’s/90’s carried more than just excellent musicianship - her early videos sold a lifestyle of sorts. One wanted to *be* part of her social circle, her world, so very much. They were hipsters before our current hipster wave. Her comeback hasn’t had any of that kind of portrayal. Just another pop star singing, with the usual dancing and conceptual theme/imagery behind.
Shame.
Crazy thought: She should convince Scott Schuman (’The Sartorialist‘) to try his hand at video.
