Sandé made her singing career debut in 2009 after appearing on the track she wrote for Chipmunk's first debut single, "Diamond Rings". The single charted at No. 6 on the UK Singles Charts, making it Chipmunk and Sandé's first ever Top 10 Hit. She later appeared on another single singing guest vocals, after collaborating with Wiley on his comeback single "Never Be Your Woman", the single charted at number-eight on the UK Singles Charts becoming Sandé's second consecutive Top 10 Single.
Sandé decided against using the name Adele Sandé, due to Adele's growing success, so used her middle name instead. She revealed: "I changed it as soon as Adele came out. I just thought, 'You've kind of taken the [name] now', so I went with my middle name. She was just getting bigger and bigger, so I thought I just really need it."
A former medical student, Sandé appeared as a guest vocalist on Professor Green's 2011 UK #1 single Read All About It and soon went on to achieve her own chart success with her first solo release Heaven, which debuted in the UK Singles Chart at #2. Her debut album Our Version of Events was released on 12th February 2012. The album includes the singles Next To Me, Daddy and My Kind Of Love.
Before branching out on her own Sandé had already had a taste of chart success having collaborated with rapper Chipmunk on his song Diamond Rings, and then with Wiley on Never Be Your Woman. She has also written for or collaborated with artists including Let Go, Let It Rain, Susan Boyle and Cheryl Cole.
In a major feature in their Saturday Review paper, The Times declared Emeli Sandé "The Voice of 2012". The New York Times said “Ms. Sandé has a perspective-altering voice, clear and brassy and weapons-grade”. Fellow artists have also proclaimed their admiration, including Alicia Keys, “I just love her style and her flow – super raw.”, and Adele, "How incredible is she?".
Our Version of Events is the UK's biggest selling debut album of 2012.
Sandé appeared at the London 2012 Olympics opening ceremony. She performed Abide with Me

Emeli Sandé Lyrics
You won't find him drinking under tables
Rolling dice or staying out 'til three
You won't ever find him be unfaithful
You will find him, you'll find him next to me
You won't find him trying to chase the devil
For money, fame, for power out of greed
You won't ever find him where the rest go
You will find him, you'll find him next to me
Next to me, ooh-ooh-ooh
Next to me, ooh-ooh
Next to me, ooh-ooh-ooh
You will find him, you'll find him next to me
When the money's spent and all my friends have vanished
And I can't seem to find no help or love for free
I know there's no need for me to panic
'Cause I'll find him, I'll find him next to me
When the skies are gray and all the doors are closing
And the rising pressure makes it hard to breathe
When all I need's a hand to stop the tears from falling
I will find him, I'll find him next to me
Next to me, ooh-ooh-ooh
Next to me, ooh-ooh
Next to me, ooh-ooh-ooh
I will find him, I'll find him next to me
When the end has come and buildings falling down fast
When we've spoilt the land and dried up all the sea
When everyone has lost their heads around us
You will find him, you'll find him next to me
Next to me, ooh-ooh-ooh
Next to me, ooh-ooh
Next to me, ooh-ooh-ooh
You will find him, you'll find him next to me
Next to me, ooh-ooh-ooh
Next to me, ooh-ooh
Next to me, ooh-ooh-ooh
You will find him, you'll find him next to me

You won′t find him drinking at the tables
Rollin' dice and staying out ′til three
You won't ever find him being unfaithful
You will find him, you'll find him next to me
You won′t find him trying to chase the Devil
For money, fame, for power, out of grief
You won′t ever find him where the rest go
You will find him, you'll find him next to me
Next to me
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Next to me
Ooh, ooh
Next to me
Ooh, ooh, ooh
You will find him, you′ll find him next to me
When the money's spent and all my friends have vanished
And I can′t seem to find no help or love for free
I know there's no need for me to panic
′Cause I'll find him, I'll find him next to me
When the skies are grey and all the doors are closing
And the rising pressure makes it hard to breathe
When all I need is a hand to stop the tears from falling
I will find him, will find him next to me
Next to me
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Next to me
Ooh, ooh
Next to me
Ooh, ooh, ooh
I will find him, I′ll find him next to me
When the end has come and buildings falling down fast
When we spoilt the land and dried up all the sea
When everyone has lost their heads around us
You will find him you′ll find him next to me
Next to me
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Next to me
Ooh, ooh
Next to me
Ooh, ooh, ooh
You will find him, you'll find him next to me
Next to me
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Next to me
Ooh, ooh
Next to me
Ooh, ooh, ooh
You will find him, you′ll find him next to me

My favourite song by Emile Sande. The message is so powerful.

Buena música!!!

This song is about whatever you want it to be about. It's not necessarily about God and it's not necessarily about a lover. It's about both. It's about neither. It's open to whatever interpretation you want it to be. All Emeli has said is that it's about loyalty and unconditional love. That covers a whole range of relationships - parent and child, friends, siblings, lovers, and even God. Whatever interpretation you want to put on it is the right one as that's how the song speaks to you. <3
