"Haunt Me" is a song by English band Sade from their third studio album, Stronger Than Pride (1988). It was released solely in the United Kingdom as the album's fifth and final single.[1] [2] [3]
Stephen Holden of The New York Times described "Haunt Me" as "a tender, almost abject confession of devotion that seems to waft up from a pillow at high siesta. Sung against a glowing arrangement for classical guitar, piano and strings, Sade offers unconditional love: 'And if you want to sleep/ I'll be quiet/ Like an angel/ As quiet as your soul could be/ If you only knew/ You had a friend like me.'"[4] Frank Guan of Vulture commented, "Piano, guitar, longing, capped off by a sax solo. Take some time to realize how incredible it is that half of Sade's catalogue exceeds a song of this quality."[5]
