Soundtrack of My Life – Ain’t No Doubt

Soundtrack of my LifeJimmy Nail has been described as English actor, singer-songwriter, musician, film producer, film score composer and television writer.

However you see him, there ain’t no doubt that his hit song from 1992 sounds brilliant with the volume turned all the way up.

This is one of a regular series of articles highlighting some of the music that has played a part in my life. You’ll find a range of songs from old to new. Whether it’s the lyrics, the music, a time in my life, or a combination of reasons, the songs in my soundtrack are part of who I am.

If you take a good look you’ll probably find music that has been part of the soundtrack of your life too. You can also check out some of the other songs that make up the soundtrack of my life.

Ain’t No Doubt – Jimmy Nail

While Jimmy Nail’s music has charted several times in the UK, his only song to have made it to the charts in Australia, rising to number 5, is Ain’t No Doubt. The song did well in a number of other countries but again it did best in the UK where the single spent three weeks at the top of the Singles Chart after grabbing the number one spot in July 1992.

I don’t think there’s any deep or significant reason that I consider it to be part of the soundtrack of my life apart from the fact that it’s just a great song with incredible horns.


I’d encourage you to get involved too. Let me know about some of the songs that are etched in your mind. What are the tunes that bring back a flood of memories every time their opening notes start cranking out on your stereo? Are there songs you love for their music and others that speak deeply through their lyrics?
