"Ain't Nobody Better" is a song by American house/techno group Inner City. The single was the third consecutive number-one on the Billboard dance chart in the US.[1] It also made it into the top 10 in the United Kingdom[2], Finland and Switzerland. However, the single failed to place on the soul singles chart and on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Music & Media wrote about the song: "Cool, funky and irresistible dance music. Already doing well in the UK and a good bet for a major European hit."[3]
