La Toya Jackson – (Ain’t Nobody Loves You) Like I Do (Germany 12″)

BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1987

“(Ain’t Nobody Loves You) Like I Do” is a 1987 single by American singer La Toya Jackson. The song is taken from her fifth album, La Toya. It is one of only four songs by Jackson to have an accompanying music video. The song features a bridge sung by Mike Stock. The single was released in 1987 throughout Europe, excluding the United Kingdom. Despite being produced by the European trio Stock Aitken Waterman, who were big hit-producers at the time, the single failed to chart.
