Aimee Mann was born in Richmond, Virginia, and attended the Berklee College of Music in Boston, but dropped out to sing with her first punk rock band, the young snakes; the band released the EP Bark Along with the Young Snakes in 1982, and a compilation album was issued in 2004. In 1983, seeking a return to "sweetness and melody", she co-founded with Berklee classmate and boyfriend Michael Hausman the new wave band 'Til Tuesday, which achieved minor success in 1985 with its first album, Voices Carry. The title song is said to be inspired by Hausman and Mann's breakup; the video became an MTV staple, winning the MTV Video Music Award for Best New Artist, though Mann's signature spiky hair would lead some to dismiss the group. Mann performed with the rock band Rush on the song "Time Stand Still" (from Hold Your Fire, 1987), singing backup vocals and appearing in the music video. With Mann playing an increasingly important role in songwriting, 'Til Tuesday released two more albums, Welcome Home and Everything's Different Now.

Nobody Does It Better Lyrics
Aimee Mann
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
Nobody does it better
Sometimes I wish someone could
Nobody does it quite the way you do
Do 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 runnning but just keep it coming
How'd you learn to do the things you do
Nobody does it better
Makes me feel sad for the rest
Nobody does it half as good as you
Baby baby, oh 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 (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)
