"Better Be Good to Me" is a song written by Mike Chapman and Holly Knight, recorded by singer Tina Turner for her solo studio album Private Dancer (1984) and released as a single in early September 1984.
The song was originally recorded and released in 1981 by Spider, a band from New York City that featured co-writer Knight as a member.
[3] The song was also included on the Miami Vice soundtrack, and the 2024 Paramount Pictures film IF, during which the main characters sing and dance to the track inside the official music video.
Towards the end, a man (Cy Curnin lead singer of the Fixx) appears on stage and grabs Turner's arms.
Both Curnin and the guitarist in the video, Jamie West-Oram (also of the Fixx), perform on the Private Dancer album.
