Nobody Does It Better Lyrics

Artist: Carly Simon
Album: Nobody Does It Better

Nobody does it better
Makes me feel sad for the rest
Nobody does it half as good as you
Baby, you're the best

I wasn't lookin' but somehow you found me
It tried to hide from your love light
But like heaven above me
The spy who loved me
Is keepin' all my secrets safe tonight

And nobody does it better
Though sometimes I wish someone could
Nobody does it quite the way you do
Why'd you have to be so good?

The way that you hold me
Whenever you hold me
There's some kind of magic inside you
That keeps me from runnin'
But just keep it comin'
How'd you learn to do the things you do?

Oh, and nobody does it better
Makes me feel sad for the rest
Nobody does it half as good as you
Baby, baby, darlin', you're the best

Baby you're the best
Darlin', you're the best
Baby you're the best

FADE
Oh, oh, oh

I like it when Brittany sings it. It is great. (Little Black Book)

It needs to be clarified that Carly was only the Artist . The Words or Lyrics were written by Carol Bayer Sager . The Music is a Marvin Hamlisch composition . It was previously used in the 1977 James Bond movie, The Spy Who Loved Me .
by jenjen on 6/26/2008 12:23pm
yes MK, it should be clarified

hahhaaa

Just watched "The Spy Who Loved Me"- Amazing movie and theme song fits the story. Amazing vocals by Carly Simon as always.....
by SK on 7/9/2008 10:14pm
I totally agree... Brittany Murphy sings this song wonderfully.

=]
by Vicki on 8/10/2008 8:59pm
No, Brittney did sing the song in The Little Black Book. Her voice is totally different than Carly Simon's, the song was on in the background.
by Nicole on 9/10/2008 9:53am
Brittany Murphy did actually sing the song. It's just too bad they wouldn't let her record her version for the soundtrack 'Little Black Book'. She has a pure sound.
by kidmud on 9/16/2008 9:52pm

by Serendipity on 9/30/2008 11:05am

by One of the best bond themes ever. on 4/14/2009 8:05pm
But I think maybe my favorite version, after Carly's is from Lost in Translation.
by Brandy on 5/29/2009 10:13am

One of the better Bond Songs - fabulous lyrics...
by ca on 3/23/2011 1:06pm
MK, it wasn't PREVIOUSLY used for the movie, it was written and recorded SPECIFICALY for the movie. To say previously implies she recorded it after the movie.

Moore was the thing , his bond charms are incomparable ... song in that movie along no doubt was a perfect fit ... what an era of perfection that was indeed ...!!

Funny how everyone ends up here after watching LITTLE BLACK BOOK and she did sound beautiful on floor singing this song!!
by authoritative source on 8/7/2012 9:46pm
Carole Bayer Sager wrote the lyrics, Marvin Hamlisch wrote the music. Carly Simon only recorded it.
by BJD on 10/23/2012 7:02am
Was watching -the spy who loved me-and thought i'll look it up and sing along..lol

Makes me think of Lebron James and his flopping on the court, nobody flops the way he does!
by Vlada on 8/5/2013 3:45pm
Oh, Brittany did that song greatly!
by Pye on 1/7/2014 6:55am
Great Bond tune! Best one until Skyfall came along!
by Wazza on 1/29/2019 10:23am
I find the lyrics quite meaningless...eg makes me feel sad for the rest...We initially wonder ; 'What does nobody do better' ?

I find the melody memorable, the harmony rather ..what I call ..American simlle...youthful..
