"No Ordinary Love" is a song by English band Sade from their fourth studio album Love Deluxe (1992). "No Ordinary Love" was released as the album's lead single in the United Kingdom on 8 October 1992, by Epic Records. It peaked at number 26 in the UK when originally released, but reached number 14 when it was re-released in June 1993. In the accompanying music video, Sade Adu is dressed as a mermaid and a bride.

"No Ordinary Love" is considered Sade's signature song in the US, alongside 1984's "Smooth Operator", 1985's "The Sweetest Taboo", and 1988's "Paradise."

Sade won a Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals in 1994.

"No Ordinary Love" was featured prominently in the 1993 film Indecent Proposal, though it was not included on the film's soundtrack album.

The song was also featured in an early 1993 episode of the daytime soap opera Days Of Our Lives.

"No Ordinary Love" appeared in the second season episode of NBC's 30 Rock, "Jack Gets in the Game", when Kenneth Parcell tried to seduce Tracy Jordan's wife, Angie Jordan.

Serbian rock band Night Shift covered the song on their Undercovers album in 2002.
