"Ain't No Pleasing You" is a song by Chas & Dave from the album Mustn't Grumble, which was released as a single on 5 March 1982 and entered the UK Singles Chart at No. 62. The song stayed in the charts for 11 weeks, peaking at No. 2 on 17 April 1982.[1] It was also the duo's first and biggest hit in Ireland, peaking at No. 3 on the Irish Singles Chart in April 1982.
Interviewed by The Daily Telegraph in 2015 Chas Hodges was asked which was the band's biggest earning hit, and said: "It's difficult to say. "Ain't No Pleasing You" reached number two and is the most played. It was also the biggest achievement because I wrote it. For some hits, like "Rabbit", we wrote together but this one was on my own, although I made sure Dave was happy with it every step of the way."[2]
