NEW YORK – An army of fans — more than 500,000 of them — went out to support Sade's (shah-DAY') latest CD, "Soldier of Love," giving the group their first No. 1 disc in 20 years.

"Soldier of Love" sold 501,665 units in its first week, debuting on top of the Billboard 200 album charts, according to Nielsen SoundScan.

The CD is the follow-up to their Grammy-winning album "Lovers Rock," released in 2000.

The group is led by 51-year-old Sade Adu (ah-DOO').

Now, you know you're a bad mamma jamma (don't wanna use the "B" word here) when you go Gold and haven't released an album in 10 years.  I like the CD myself.  Sade is one you have to grow to like/love IMO, but it's a 
relaxing, yet souful CD.  Her voice hasn't changed one bit!  And I can't believe she's 51!  That lady is aging WELL!
