Sade has released her first new music in eight years, with the song Flower of the Universe, taken from the soundtrack to A Wrinkle in Time – Ava DuVernay’s big-budget sci-fi fantasy starring Oprah Winfrey, Reese Witherspoon and more.
She has sold more than 50m records in her career, which began in 1984 with the phenomenally successful album Diamond Life.
Backed by pretty acoustic guitar and almost eerie wordless backing vocals, Sade delivers a typically spellbinding vocal line.
When she toured in 2012, she out-earned Adele to become the sixth-highest earning musician in the world that year.
