"'''Ain't No Other Man'''" is lead single released by [[United States|American]] singer [[Christina Aguilera]] from her third studio album ''[[Back to Basics (Christina Aguilera album)|Back to Basics]]'' ([[2006]]). The single won a [[Grammy Award]] for the [[Best Female Pop Vocal Performance]] category in 2007.

==Song information==

'''Zhoushan''' ({{zh-sp|s=舟山|p=Zhōushān}}), formerly transliterated as '''Chusan''', is a [[prefecture-level city]] in northeastern [[Zhejiang]] [[province of China|province]], [[People's Republic of China]]. The only prefecture-level city consisting solely of [[island]]s, it lies across the mouth of the [[Hangzhou Bay]], and is separated from the mainland by a narrow body of water.

Produced by [[DJ Premier]] and Charles Roane, the song contains [[sampling (music)|samples]] from The Moon People's ''Hippy, Skippy, Moon Strut'' (1969) and ''The Cissy's Thang'' (1969) by The Soul Seven. It was released as the first [[single (music)|single]] from ''Back to Basics'' in June 2006 (see [[2006 in music]]); originally meant to be available for purchase on [[June 13]], it was released early to [[iTunes Music Store]] on [[June 3]]. It debuted on UK radio on [[June 7]], and also on Brazilian radio stations on the same day. It is thought to be Aguilera's comeback single, due to its strong chart performance after Aguilera's four-year hiatus from her previous studio album ''[[Stripped (Christina Aguilera album)|Stripped]]'' (2002). This song, contrary to popular belief, does not have a live brass section. The brass interludes are samples from a 1970's Latin funk track called "Happy Soul", performed by Dave Cortez and the Moon People. Obviously the drum track has been largely edited, and made to sound a lot bassier, but the main structure of the repeated brass riff is still intact.

DJ Premier said about the track: "It's pretty much about how Aguilera's husband has stolen her from the beginning", and it began receiving airplay on American radio stations within the same day. [[SonyBMG|Sony-BMG]] issued a statement regarding the release of the song, claiming that a full investigation would be launched in order to find out how the song was leaked, as they did not intend for the song to be released until after it premiered at the [[MTV Movie Awards 2006|2006 MTV Movie Awards]] on [[June 3]]. Because of the leak, [[RCA]] Records officially released the single to all U.S. radio stations the day after it leaked.

==Administration==

[[Big Boi]] from [[OutKast]] was scheduled to contribute a rap verse on the remix of the single. It is rumored that his record label pressured him to remove himself from the song to prevent the "Ain't No Other Man" remix from competing with [[Outkast]]'s own single, "The Mighty O." RCA subsequently replaced [[Big Boi]] with [[Houston, Texas|Houston]] rapper, [[Chamillionaire]]. Nonetheless, Chamillionaire's additional rap verse on the song proved not to be popular amongst fans and hardly received any radio airplay.

The [[prefecture-level city]] of Zhoushan administers 2 [[District of China|districts]] and 2 [[County of China|counties]].

The single was released over two weeks in the UK. CD1, featuring the Radio Edit and Instrumental is released on 24th July 2006. CD2, featuring the Album & A cappella versions, and two remixes of the track was released on [[July 31]] [[2006]]. The two weeks release of the single in the UK prevented it from going to #1 in the UK singles chart and peaked at #2 being blocked off by Shakira's "Hips Don't Lie". Had "Ain't No Other Man" had just one release it would have reached the top spot of the UK singles chart because it sales for that 1 week would have been enough to block of "Hips Don't Lie" off the top spot.

"Ain't No Other Man" garnered Aguilera another nomination and win at the [[49th Annual Grammy Awards]] in the category [[Best Female Pop Vocal Performance]]. This is her fourth time being nominated in this category, and second win.

These are further divided into 45 [[Political divisions of China#Township level|township-level divisions]], including 24 [[town of China|towns]], 12 [[township (China)|townships]] and 9 [[subdistrict]]s.

==HistoryMusic video==

[[Image:Ain'tNoOtherManScreen.PNG|thumb|200px|left|Aguilera in the music video for "Ain't No Other Man" (2006).]]

The [[music video]], directed by [[Bryan Barber]], was shot from [[May 1]] to [[May 3]] in [[Los Angeles, California|Los Angeles]]. In an interview with [http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1539161/08222006/aguilera_christina.jhtml MTV], Aguilera stated, "it intrigued me that this man, Bryan Barber, had been very locked into and had surrounded himself with this whole world of the '20s and '30s era," in response to Barber's film project, [[Idlewild (film)|Idlewild]]. It was released exclusively to iTunes on [[June 20]] and went to number-one the following day on the iTunes video chart. It then premiered on [[MTV]]'s ''[[Making the Video]]'' on [[June 21]].

The music video is supposed to be set back in the 1920s to 1930s Era, where Christina Aguilera plays the role of her [[alter ego]], Baby Jane (a [[Peggy Lee]]/[[Judy Garland]]-ish nightclub singer). The name is shown on the car's plate and on her dressing room door. The video takes place mostly at a club, with Christina getting ready in the backstage area, and then coming up the stage performing along with the song. In between scenes, there were short vignettes that showed Aguilera in gold and silver dresses, singing to a mic, while photographers are taking pictures. She appeared in several looks; in one of the scenes, Christina appeared using rhinestone studded headphones, showed a bit of a modern day portrayal.

The archipelago was inhabited 6,000 years ago during the [[Neolithic]] by people of the [[Hemudu culture]]. During the [[Spring and Autumn Period]], Zhoushan was called Yongdong (涌东), referring to its ___location east of the [[Yong River]], and belonged to the [[State of Yue]].

In the beginning and in the end of the music video there are clips from another song from ''[[Back to Basics (Christina Aguilera album)|Back to Basics]]'', entitled "I Got Trouble."

The fishermen and sailors who inhabited the islands often engaged in piracy and became recruits for uprisings against the central authorities. At the time of the [[Eastern Jin Dynasty]], Zhoushan Islands served as the base for Sun En's rebellion. Sun En, an adherent of the [[Taoism|Taoist]] sect Wudou Midao (Five Bushels of Rice), launched his rebellion around the year 400 and was defeated by Jin forces in 402.<ref>Gernet 2002, pp. 182-183.</ref>

The song played as if it were on the radio with minor white noise.

The music video has been well received by audiences. On MTV's ''[[Total Request Live]]'', it has achieved the number one video spot on the countdown twenty two times, and was retired at number one, making it Christina's most successful video and the most successful video of 2006 of TRL. "Ain't No Other Man" is third only to [[Behind These Hazel Eyes]] by [[Kelly Clarkson]] and [[Me Against the Music]] by [[Britney Spears]] as the most successful female video on TRL of all time. It has also been in the top 5 videos on [[VH1]]'s Top 20 Countdown and number one in [[TMF]]'s top ten countdown in [[Europe]]. It was nominated at the [[2006 MTV Video Music Awards]] for [[MTV Video Music Award for Video of the Year|Video of the Year]], [[MTV Video Music Award for Best Female Video|Best Female Video]], [[MTV Video Music Award for Best Pop Video|Best Pop Video]], and [[MTV Video Music Award for Best Choreography|Best Choreography]]

In 863, the [[Japan]]ese [[Buddhist monk]]s [[Hui'e]] (慧锷) and Zhang-shi (张氏) of [[Putuoshan]], Zhoushan placed a statue of [[Guanyin]] at Chaoying Cave (潮音洞) that would later become popular tourist destination.

==Chart performance==

During the [[Ming dynasty]], especially between the years 1530 and 1560, Japanese and Chinese pirates used Zhoushan as one of their principal bases from which they launched attacks as far as [[Nanjing]]; "the whole Chinese coast from northern [[Shandong]] to western [[Guangdong]] was ravaged to a distance of sixty miles inland."<ref>Gernet 2002, p. 422.</ref>

On [[June 15]], [[2006]], "Ain't No Other Man" debuted at number nineteen on the [[Billboard Hot 100|''Billboard'' Hot 100]] as a result of strong [[digital download|download]]s. The song became Aguilera's highest debut on the Hot 100, a title that was previously held by "[[I Turn to You (Christina Aguilera song)|I Turn to You]]" (2000).<ref>''[[Billboard magazine|Billboard]]''. Bronson, Fred. [http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/chart_beat/bonus.jsp "Aguilera bounds into the Hot 100 with her highest debut yet"]. [[June 15]] [[2006]]. Retrieved [[June 21]] [[2006]].</ref> The song soared into the top ten before quickly peaking at number six. However, the song has proven to have longevity as it has spent nineteen consecutive weeks within the top forty. It has sold over 1,000,000 digital downloads in the United States making it [[Music recording sales certification|Platinum]]. "Ain't No Other Man" has been proven very successful, as it is Aguilera's first top ten hit on the Hot 100 since "Beautiful" back in late [[2002 in music|2002]]. The song has proven to be a big dance hit as well, where it reached number one on Billboard's [[Hot Dance Airplay]] and [[Hot Dance Club Play]] chart.

In the [[United Kingdom|UK]] "Ain't No Other Man" reached number two due in part to RCAs ridiculous release of spreading out the single to be released in 2 different weeks. This cost the song the #1 spot of the UK singles chart where it was blocked off by hips don't lie. The song debuted on the Canadian [[Nielsen Broadcast Data Systems|BDS]] Airplay Chart the same week it did in the U.S. (at number thirty-eight) and peaked at number three on [[August 19]] [[2006]]. It also reached number three on the Canadian Dance Chart. However, despite commercial success on these formats, it did not chart highly on the [[Canadian Singles Chart]] (number fourteen) perhaps because of the release of ''Back to Basics'' (that same week). "Ain't No Other Man" became Aguilera's most commercially successful single in Canada (10.000 units sold; Platinum) since "[[Fighter (song)|Fighter]]" (2003).

After suppression of the pirates, Zhoushan became an important commercial entrepôt. Under the early [[Qing Dynasty|Qing]] dynasty, it played a similar role to [[Xiamen|Amoy]] and [[Guangzhou|Canton]] as a frequent port of call for Western traders.<ref>Spence 1991, p. 120.</ref> The restriction of all European trade to the port of Canton in 1760 forced Westerners to leave Zhoushan. One of the requests of [[George Macartney, 1st Earl Macartney|Lord Macartney]]'s embassy to emperor [[Qianlong Emperor|Qianlong]] in 1793 was an acquisition of "a small unfortified island near Zhoushan for the residence of English traders, storage of goods, and outfitting of ships." Emperor Qianlong denied this request together with all the rest.<ref>See "Ch'ien lung's Letter to George III," http://web.jjay.cuny.edu/~jobrien/reference/ob41.html.</ref>

"Ain't No Other Man" became Aguilera's tenth top ten hit on [[Top 40 Mainstream|Top 40 Radio]], where it peaked at number seven. The song's performance on pop radio is similar to those of many of her past hits like "Fighter", "[[Can't Hold Us Down]]", and "[[Come on over Baby (All I Want Is You)|Come on Over Baby]]". It was also her first top ten hit on Top 40 Radio in over three years, with the last one being "Can't Hold Us Down" in [[2003 in music|mid-2003]].

British forces under Captain [[Charles Elliott]] seized Zhoushan in the summer of [[1840]] during the [[First Opium War]] and evacuated it in early 1841, after Elliott reached an agreement with Qishan, the governor general of Tianjin and grand secretary to emperor Daoguang, in exchange for cession of [[Hong Kong]].<ref>Spence 1991, p. 156.</ref> At that time, Zhoushan was a well known port while Hong Kong was only a fishing village. The British Foreign Secretary [[Henry Temple, 3rd Viscount Palmerston|Palmerston]] was famously livid when he learned that Elliott agreed to cession of Hong Kong ("a barren island with hardly a house on it") while giving up Zhoushan. Elliott was dismissed in April 1841 for his blunder.<ref>Welsh 1997, p. 108.</ref> His replacement [[Henry Eldred Curwen Pottinger|Sir Henry Pottinger]] led a British fleet that recaptured Zhoushan in late August 1841.<ref>Spence 1991, p. 157.</ref> The First Opium War ended with conclusion of the [[Treaty of Nanjing]] in which China opened up the cities of Canton, [[Fuzhou]], Amoy, [[Ningbo]], and [[Shanghai]] to residence by British subjects for the purpose of trade. As a result, Britain had no longer any use for Zhoushan but it kept the island until [[1846]] as a guarantee for the fulfilment of the stipulations of the treaty.

The song has gone on to have unusual longevity on the radio charts. However, "Ain't No Other Man" has only peaked at number six. This song is now considered a successful comeback single due to its slow paced decline. On the Billboard 2006 Hot 100 Year-End chart, "Ain't No Other Man" was ranked thirty-second.<ref>''[[Billboard magazine|Billboard]]''. Bronson, Fred. [http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/yearend/2006/charts/hot100_2.jsp "2006 Hot 100 Year-End Chart"]. [[December 21]] [[2006]]. Retrieved [[December 26]] [[2006]].</ref>

Zhoushan was also occupied by the British in [[1860]] ([[Second Opium War]]).

Today's Zhoushan city was made Wengshan District (翁山县) of Ming Prefecture (明洲) in 738 ([[Tang Dynasty|Tang]]). In 1073 ([[Song Dynasty|Song]]), it was renamed Changguo (昌国县). It was upgraded to a prefecture (昌国州) in early [[Yuan Dynasty]], and changed to Dinghai District (定海县) of Zhejiang Province in 1688 ([[Qing Dynasty|Qing]]). It was upgraded to a direct-control [[subprefecture]] (定海直隶厅) in 1841, but reverted to a county after the end of empire.

Under the [[Republic of China]]'s rule, Dinghai County was, as during always in the Qing Dynasty, part of Zhejiang Province. However, Shengsi was separated into an Archipelago Direct-control District (列岛直属区) of [[Jiangsu Province]] in 1946, and made a county in October 1949. In that same year, the last year under rule of the Republic, the remaining Dinghai County was divided into Dinghai and Wengzhou (翁洲) Counties.

Zhoushan came to be under communist control on May 17, 1950, and Wengzhou was merged back into Dinghai County, which was then under Ningpo ''Zhuanqu'' (宁波专区).

Shengsi was made a ''tequ'' (特区) of [[Songjiang]] ''Zhuanqu'' (松江专区), still of Jiangsu this year, and upgraded to a county the following year.

{| class="wikitable"

!align="center"|Chart (2006)

In March 1953, the [[Council of Ministers]] approved to divide Dinghai County into the counties of Dinghai, Putuo, and Daishan. In addition, Shengsi County was returned to Zhejiang, to be administered, with the three former Dinghai counties, as Zhoushan ''Zhuanqu'' of Zhejiang [[Xiangshan, Zhejiang|Xiangshan]] County (象山) of Ningpo ''Zhuanqu'' was briefly incorporated into Zhoushan from 1954 to 1958.

All subdivisions' county status abolished, the commission became a county of Ningpo ''Zhuanqu'' in 1958, and was reverted to a ''zhuanqu'' on its own in May 1962, and changed to a prefecture (地区) on 1967 (approved by the [[State Council]] on January 23, 1962).

Shengsi was temporarily assigned to [[Shanghai]] in the early 1960s. Created in 1962, the short-lived Daqu (大衢) County was halved into parts of Daishan and Shengsi four years later.

The [[prefecture-level city]] status was granted on January 27, 1987 to Zhoushan, and Dinghai and Putuo Counties were upgraded to districts. The municipal People's Government was established on March 8 of that year. April of the same year, the ports of Zhoushan became open to foreign ships. On April 10, 1988, it became a [[coastal economic open zone]].
