“Nobody Does It Better” is a James Bond theme used for the 1977 film The Spy Who Loved Me and released Single EP, Soundtrack Album.

The song composed by Marvin Hamlisch, lyrics by Carole Bayer Sager and performed by Carly Simon.

It was the first Bond theme song to be titled differently from the name of the film, although the phrase “the spy who loved me” is in the lyrics. The song became a hit that is still popular today.

The song has been covered a number of times and has been featured in many non-Bond films, including, most recently: Mr. & Mrs. Smith (2005), performed by 8mm. Little Black Book (2004), Lost in Translation (2003) and Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason (2004) also used the song.

Thom Yorke of Radiohead fame is even heard to claim, in a bootleg recording of a live performance, that this is the “sexiest song that was ever written.”
