Sade's "Love Deluxe," which has done much better than expected considering her four-year hiatus, tops both the local pop and the R&B charts. Whitney Houston's single "I Will Always Love You," from the soundtrack of her first movie, "The Bodyguard," is a smash hit, zooming to No. 2 and looking like a shoo-in for No. 1.
