"Every Loser Wins" is a 1986 song performed by English actor and singer Nick Berry. Written and produced by Simon May, Stewart James and Bradley James, the song was heavily featured in the BBC soap opera EastEnders throughout the summer of 1986, sung by Berry's character Simon "Wicksy" Wicks.
When released as a single, "Every Loser Wins" spent three weeks at number one on the UK singles chart in October and November 1986. It was the second biggest-selling single in the UK that year, after "Don't Leave Me This Way" by the Communards. The song's three composers each received an Ivor Novello Award for it.
"Every Loser Wins" peaked at number 93 on the Australia Kent Music Report in 1987.
