What? You think you’re BETTER than Sade?

Their 1984 Top Ten hit epitomizes the Cuisinart Smooth Operator Chrome Blender: it’s all about a jet set lifestyle, a suave debonaire man who knows what he wants and knows how to get it. And sure, we’re no experts, but it’s pretty obvious that song’s about blending.

“Minimum waste and maximum joy?” Dude doesn’t waste anything when he’s making smoothies. He’ll flavor it with fruit, nuts, peanut butter, whatever. “When you require streetcar desire for higher heights?” Sometimes you need some REALLY good smoothies. This thing’s got you covered. It’s so smooth!

“Across the north and south to Key Largo, love for sale.” We think that’s a reference to some undiscovered Key Lime Pie recipe or something, and obviously it’s so good he could turn around and sell it. “A license to love?” Well, it’s a bit of artistic license, but this blender gives you license to blend all the things you love. To blend. Pretty simple, really.

And of course, in case you forget the name of it, she mentions “Smooth Operator” about 87 times. Pretty amazing more people haven’t figured this out yet.
