Nobody But You Baby - Steve Miller Band

Nobody But You Baby - Steve Miller Band
4:05
Living in the 20th Century, 1986
Written by Steve Miller

Around this time, Miller was experimenting with keyboard and synthesizer, so this come-on of a song is pretty firmly set in its '80s era.  He also chooses to sing it in a higher register than normal, giving the whole a rather glossy, yacht-rock vibe. Some might see it as Miller trying to be futuristic, but to me it just seems tinny and synthetic, not as warm as his more guitar-oriented material.  But it's got an upbeat vibe and has a nice easy-listening melody.
