Jade - The Saddest Night

Copied!

The shimmering dagger gone
Downstairs on stagnant mourn
No flowers shall be born
But cease all those old songs

That day I was alone
Beneath the sky so old
From the highest stone I called
The purest soul to fall

Creation by decapitation
For the Empire’s roar
Ascension by this transformation
Makes the ritual worth
Give me a child before it comes
Give me a heart to save our world
Is it pure this act of blood?
Yes my lord, as long as life goes on

The withered slumber done
At dawn nee pain and wounds
And entrails soon to crown
The kings to fill the shroud

edit bio

The group Jade was originally composed of Joi Marshall, Angela Slates and Debra Mitchell.

Producer Vassal Benford sold the song “I Wanna Love You” before Marshall, Slates and Mitchell’s voices were recorded on the song. In order to keep the song on the soundtrack for the 1992 Kid ‘n Play comedy Class Act, Benford had to reproduce the song with the actual voices of the group members. When that could not be accomplished he implored the record label to drop Slates and Mitchell from the group and replace them with Di Reed and Tonya Kelly who were the voices on the song and who were signed to his production company. Tonya Kelly and Di Reed were signed on by producer Vassal Benford, and the group’s name was extended to Jade.

Tonya grew up in Chicago listening to jazz vocalists such as Sarah Vaughan and Nat King Cole. Joi Marshall was also from Chicago but was raised on Motown, especially Diana Ross. Di Reed grew up in Houston singing gospel anywhere she could.
