“Best I’ve Ever Had” is a song by American alternative rock band Vertical Horizon, released in 1999 as the second single from their second album, Everything You Want. The song was written by Matt Scannell and produced by Bob Rock. It became a top 10 hit in the United States, reaching number nine on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
The song is a piano-driven ballad about a man who is in love with a woman who is out of his league. He knows that he will never be able to have her, but he still loves her anyway. The song’s lyrics are simple and straightforward, but they are also very effective in conveying the man’s emotions. The song’s chorus is particularly memorable, and it has been quoted in numerous films and television shows.
