Ordinary Pain - Stevie Wonder - MP3 instrumental karaoke

"Ordinary Pain" is a song from American singer-songwriter Stevie Wonder's 1976 eighteenth studio album, Songs in the Key of Life. Like most of the tracks in the LP, it was written and produced by Stevie Wonder himself. Starting off with a couple of soulful chords, "Ordinary Pain" documents a romantic relationship gone awry and transitions into a grittier, more upbeat response in the latter half, mirroring the transition from heartbreak to a more assertive stance of moving on. This change in mood is accompanied by a smooth R&B sound in the beginning, slowly building into an upbeat funky number driven forward by bouncy synthesizers and female call-and-response vocals by Minnie Riperton and Deniece Williams. Despite not having been released as a promotional single, "Ordinary Pain" was singled out by both critics and fans as one of the album's standout tracks. Songs in the Key of Life, in turn, was a smash hit for Stevie Wonder, reaching the top of the Billboard 200 and entering the Top 10 in the UK, Sweden, and Canada.
