"Have You Ever?" is a pop ballad written by Diane Warren for Brandy's second studio album, Never Say Never (1998). It was produced by David Foster and released as the album's third single during the fourth quarter of 1998 (see 1998 in music). This was Brandy's first solo single to reach the top position on the Billboard Hot 100. The ballad also reached number one in New Zealand, peaked within the top ten in Australia, and the top 30 in Canada, Ireland and the United Kingdom.
"That was the first time I had been in the studio with a producer like David Foster," Brandy said about recording in a 2005 interview. "My voice wasn't as developed as it is now and the song required what producers call ‘money notes' - the kind that get you a No. 1 on the charts! I was really nervous but it all worked just fine."
"Have You Ever" was a single released by UK pop group, S Club 7 on November 19, 2001. Following the success of the 2000 Children in Need track, "Never Had a Dream Come True", the BBC asked S Club 7 to perform the 2001 track for the charity too. "Have You Ever" was co-written by Cathy Dennis, A. Frampton and Chris Braide. The track is the penultimate ballad S Club 7 released as a single with lead vocals coming from singer Jo. "Have You Ever" acted as an introduction to S Club 7's third album Sunshine. The single was a #1 UK hit for two weeks from November-December 2001.
