"No Ordinary Love," Alaine

[luisro]

I just got this song (thanks ) and it's a SMASH!! I love it. It's really catchy and kind of simple but great!

I will look for some info about her... if I can find something and post it later on

All I know is this was a hit in Jamaica over the summer. It's really relaxing and I love it. It's the same riddim as Sean Paul's "Never Gonna Be The Same." (The Seasons Riddim)

Singer Alaine has been making quite an impact on the radio with her hot single No Ordinary Love. The song is currently riding the Richie B Hit List Top 30 as well as the bMobile Mega Jamz Reggae chart. The video for No Ordinary Love, which was shot recently, has become a favourite with music video lovers.

Directed by Kimala 'Lala' Bennett, the concept of the video is quite simple. Alaine travels down memory lane and reminisces about the special moments in her life that she shared with her very first love. No Ordinary Love is a decent effort, and it was produced by Donovan Bennett. It is among the glut of songs flooding the popular Seasons rhythm.

Reports indicate that No Ordinary Love has been receiving steady rotation on radio stations in a number of Caribbean territories including Puerto Rico, St Vincent, the US Virgin Islands and St Kitts, as well as radio stations in the New York tri-state area.

No Ordinary Love is the latest single from the artiste, who was once a child star, who shot to fame when she sang the jingle for a Victoria Mutual Building Society television commercial in the early 1990s. Some of her recent recordings include No More Chaka Chaka Love (on Fire Links' Chaka Chaka rhythm) and Anything (produced by Deseca Productions).

Steady rotation in Puerto Rico? I haven't heard that song!

It's not getting played around here in the tri-state area. I wish it was, but Mediabase doesn't report a single US spin. This is a hot song. Hopefully it can be a hit in the spring of 2006 or something. It's probably my favorite riddim ever and Alaine doesn't have the greatest voice in the world but she's very passionate with the vocal performance regardless.
