Sade - When Am I Going To Make A Living - Official - 1984

[@patrickphokoane641]

This is a social conscious song for us who struggle with every day life to survive

[@update8280]

Right. Typically 80's: Very entertaining pop songs with a message of social or pacifist consciousness.

[@g.j.koster1986]

Seriously, this woman is out of this world. Her looks, breath-taking, her music pure and soulfull. All in perfect harmony with her classy and contemporary style.

[@teejay4477]

Oh yes, and what a voice... I love her

[@elsaalcala5486]

G.J. KOSTER Who asked you?

[@jonscholz]

Honey.

[@adambartone9193]

Gotta love her

[@SunnyDallasRealtor]

There never will be another one like her.

[@ZeroGravity60]

This was my song in my 20's - and then in my 30's - and again in my 40's - and basically to my mid 50's. Finally at 55 I arrived. I finally made it to the other side of this song in my field of choice. Looking back it was worth every minute of it. Don't Quit! Follow your dream! Make it your living! There's no end to what you can do! The'y 'll waste your body and soul if you allow them too. Start believing in yourself! Put the blame on no one else! Update: Six years after I arrived at my goal, I'm now at the very TOP of my profession. I say this because if you're still trying, you're not waisting time. You're building knowledge and pressure. When that door finally swings open you'll shoot like a silver rocket to heights you can't yet even imagine. Never say die! [By the way it's true, it's all about the journey, not the destination. So enjoy it!] Peace.

I loved London in the 80s.

I experienced it in the 90s as a visiting student. Loved it.

I am obsessed with Sade's music.

[@SilviDepp]

Yep me too

[@jfo333777]

Me 3

[@cdcaleo]

It's a great obsession to have. She is worth it.

[@sajohnmello]

Sade quietly making her approach to legendary status. Favorite scene, her in the car camera catching her in the backseat, so legendary and beautiful !

[@claudettewarner6151]

Hungry for a life we can't afford! Preach Adu!!

[@luisalphahernandezomega1704]

[@handmaidenofthelord2463]

It’s been thirty years since I have loved this song. It brings me to tears listening to it because it still applies to my life. Life has been horrible. I just thank God for his mercy.

[@THECHICHIHUB]

I’m sorry 😞

If she stepped through the camera in 2019 and went to any event or party, she'd still be the most stylish person there (edit: same for 2020) (edit:same in 2021)

[@julijakeit]

her looks are very 80s glam, if you watched Santa Barbara or Bold and the Beautiful, you'll see not all ladies dressed in leather studs and huge shoulder pads.

[@SunnyDallasRealtor]

YUP

[@VashTheDamnFiend]

Facts I’ve always been a big fan of trench coats she rocks it well

[@hogmajor9651]

NOO... SHE'D BE THE MOST PRETTIEST WOMAN THERE😱😱😍😍🤔💎💎💎 THERE WOULD BE ALOTTA DIVORCES IN ALOTTA MEN'S FUTURES🤔🤔🤔😂😂😂😂😂😂 🔥VEINTE VEINTE🔥 💎💎💎💎SADE💎💎💎💎

rather classic style, thats why dude

[@mattmillus2281]

Some things are timeless... Class never goes out of style.

[@SmartRobot-wc2fb]

@@mattmillus2281 I guess they are trying to say that here 🤗...Sade's style and music are truly TIMELESS! That's all you need to define her...just 1 word: TIMELESS!

[@caramelspice7244]

This song carries the same vibe as Simply Red's "Money's to Tight to Mention." Fast forward 30 years later, and I'm sure millions of people can still relate. Reagan and Thatcher are gone but the problems just get recycled and are still with us .

[@ToyotaGuy1971]

Got to get to the core of the corruption - need to get special interest money out of politics. That, and the propaganda-induced division across so many lines, keep us all in bondage.

[@lisasimpson8318]

True 😉

[@marcofalzone6469]

@@ToyotaGuy1971 right on

[@ToyotaGuy1971]

@@marcofalzone6469 i see mass unionizing for max collective bargaining power and influence as our only peaceful way back to real democracy and an end to despotism. Everyone needs to become an active member of the union movement for it to work so they cant use scabs to fight us off.

I’m here in 2023, asking the same question 😢 but , wow. This is a timeless woman.

Takes me back to the 80s .remember the first time I saw her I was stunned by her beautiful looks and utter class,.I bought diamond life as soon as it came out,loved the whole album,,,recently gave all my old records to my son as he’s getting into vinyl,when I visited I told him to put this on and I thought here I am about 40 years listening to my old album again for the first time since the 80s,.,.still played like new….

It's gonna take a while before I give in See the people fussing and stealing Too many lies, no-one is achieving Haven't I told you before We're hungry for a life we can't afford? There's no end to what you can do If you give yourself a chance to prove We're hungry but we won't give in Hungry but we won't give in Hungry but we won't give in Hungry but we won't give in Hungry but we won't give in We're hungry but we won't give in Hungry but we won't give in Hungry but we won't give in Oh there's no end to what you can do They'll waste your body and soul if you allow them to Oh start believing in yourself Put the blame on no-one else Not gonna give in Hungry but we won't give in When am I gonna make a living?

First time hearing this song. I love it and can relate to it now. Agh she is so beautiful.. I remember wearing my hair exactly like that for almost all of my early teen years.

[@tourufeatherstone1050]

That looks like a pie n mash shop. Those hard rigid high chairs and marble looking heavy tables...a bit like my local in Bethnal Green, Kelly’s, back in the day. Anyway, by far my favourite female singer of all time. She’s the only (living) one on the list I’d tear my left arm off to see live in concert. Come back Sade to us and see the love we have for you
