A Life Less Ordinary (song)

"A Life Less Ordinary" was a non-album single released by the band Ash on 13 October 1997. It was the title track of the film of the same name, A Life Less Ordinary, starring Cameron Diaz and Ewan McGregor, and also appeared on the film's soundtrack. The single was released in three formats: CD, 7-inch vinyl, and cassette. The limited-edition 7-inch was printed on blue vinyl. The song peaked at number ten on the UK Singles Chart.

B-sides
The first B-side, "What Deaner Was Talking About," is a cover of the song by Ween from the album Chocolate and Cheese. This track also features on Ash's live album Live at the Wireless. The B-side "Where is Our Love Going?" follows closer with the sound from theirTrailer album than Nu-Clear Sounds. It's a fast-paced number, which later appeared on the Cosmic Debris B-sides collection. The (CD only) track, "Halloween" also appears on Cosmic Debris, but is much slower paced, telling a tale of loneliness on Halloween night until the subject finally reunites with their friends at the end of the song. The track was originally called "Happy Halloween". ==Music video==
Music video
The directors Hammer & Tongs directed the video for the single, which consists of the band playing on a racetrack inside a heart-shaped area marked with crash barriers. Four cars appear and crash into the band. The cars race forward, with the band still playing the song on the bonnets of the cars. Near the end, the cars crash into each other, throwing a member over the top. However, the cars land perfectly and race off into the distance and out of view. Of course, this being the soundtrack to the film of the same name, footage from the film is used too. Rick was taken ill with bronchitis during the filming of this video, so he has his hood up for the majority of the video. A crew member filled in for him for the latter end of the video. ==Track listings==
