Nobody Does It Better Video

The band played this song live a few times. It's a cover of Carly Simon's 'Nobody Does it Better' which was the theme song for the James Bond movie, The Spy Who Loved Me.

Radiohead have said in interviews, that they can't do covers.. Well this song suggests otherwise. They do a GREAT version of this song.. I like it better than the original, and I very rarely do that with covers. Even for Radiohead. They played this live for MTV once, where Thom introduced it as 'the sexiest song that was ever written'. A video of the show very VERY rarely airs on TV, and you can read about it here.

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 looking but somehow you found me
I tried to hide from your love light
But like heaven above me, the spy who loved me
Is keeping all my secrets safe tonight

And nobody does it better
Sometimes I wish someone would
Nobody does it half as good as you
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
That keeps me from running, but just keep it coming
How'd you learn to do the things you do?

And nobody does it better
Makes me feel sad for the rest
Nobody does it quite the way you do
Baby, baby
Baby you're the best
Baby you're the best
Baby you're the best
Baby you're the best

Baby you're the best
