"Better Man" is a song by English pop singer Robbie Williams, released as the final single from his third studio album, Sing When You're Winning (2000), in October 2001. It was released only in Australia, New Zealand and Latin America. A music video for the Australian release was produced in 2001, reusing scenes from Williams' "Eternity" music video (since the single was not released in that territory), intercut with a live performance of "Better Man" from his The Sermon on the Mount Tour in Manchester, England, in October 2000, overdubbed with the studio version. The song's title would later go on to serve as the title of Williams' 2024 biopic.
Robbie Williams recorded a Spanish version of the song called "" ("To Be Better"). It was included on the Latin American pressings of Sing When You're Winning.
In New Zealand, "Better Man" began receiving airplay in late 2000. It eventually peaked at number four on the RIANZ Singles Chart for four weeks in December 2000 and January 2001. The promotional disc of "Ser mejor" was sent to Latin American radio stations in 2001. In Australia, "Better Man" was released as a CD single on 22 October 2001. It appeared on the ARIA Singles Chart the following week, climbing to number eight during its ninth week on the chart and reaching its peak of number six on 20 January 2002, spending four nonconsecutive weeks at that position and remaining in the top 50 for 29 weeks. It sold over 35,000 copies, earning a gold certification from the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA).
