Beyoncé Best Thing I Never Had | What goes around comes around

beyonce best thing i never had

I don’t know who would leave this wonder of nature, but the fact is that the awesome ‘Best thing I never had‘, is a plea against those couples who leave us, because they are missing out, right? 😏

Beyoncé Best Thing I Never Had

Trembol | Story behing Beyoncé’s Best Thing I Never Had

Beyoncé has unparalleled hits like ‘Single Ladies’ or ‘Halo’, but if you ask me which is my favorite song of the so-called Queen B, it’s this ‘Best Thing I Never Had’.

His display of voice is huge, the melody fantastic and the story reminds me of that typical phrase we all say when we get dumped, “you’re missing out“, although usually the one who says it is the one who is most hurt 😞

That pain, or, rather, resentment, is reflected right at the beginning of the song, when she says:

What goes around comes back around

For her, it’s all about karma. As you can see in the video, Beyoncé ends up married and happy, long way better than if she had stayed with her already ex-partner.

In fact, as payback she tells him that it must suck to be him now and that she doesn’t care at all anymore:

Oh yeah, I bet it sucks to be you right now.
So sad, you’re hurt
Boo hoo, oh, did you expect me to care.

I love the ‘Boo hoo’, part where Beyoncé whines making fun of her ex.

The track, which was released as the 2nd single from Beyoncé’s 4th album, called ‘4’, in 2011, wins us over for its R&B and pop touches, but, above all, for the vocal display, which is impressive.

The story ends with Beyoncé’s acknowledgement that the breakup with her lover suited them both, so, happy ending!

LYRICS BEYONCÉ | THE BEST THING I NEVER HAD | ENGLISH

What goes around comes back around (hey my baby)
What goes around comes back around (hey my baby)
I say what goes around comes back around (hey my baby)
What goes around comes back around…

There was a time
I thought, that you did everything right
No lies, no wrong
Boy I must’ve been out of my mind
So when I think of the time that I almost loved you
You showed your ass and I, I saw the real you

Thank God you blew it
I thank God I dodged the bullet
I’m so over you
So baby good lookin’ out

I wanted you bad
I’m so through with that
‘Cause honestly you turned out to be the (best thing I never had)
You turned out to be the (best thing I never had)
And I’m gonna’ always be the (best thing you never had)
Oh yeah, I bet it sucks to be you right now

So sad, you’re hurt
Boo hoo, oh, did you expect me to care
You don’t deserve my tears
I guess that’s why they ain’t there
When I think that there was a time that I almost loved you
You showed your ass and baby yes I saw the real you

Thank God you blew it
I thank God I dodged the bullet
I’m so over you
Baby good lookin’ out

I wanted you bad
I’m so through with that
Cause honestly you turned out to be the (best thing I never had)
I said, you turned out to be the (best thing I never had)
And I’ll never be the (best thing you never had)
Oh baby I bet sucks to be you right now

I know you want me back
It’s time to face the facts
That I’m the one that’s got away
Lord knows that it would take another place, another time, another world, another life
Thank God I found the good in goodbye

I used to want you so bad
I’m so through with that
Cause honestly you turned out to be the (best thing I never had)
Oh you turned out to be (the best thing I never had)
And I will always be the (best thing you never had)
Oh, best thing you never had!

I used to want you so bad
I’m so through with that
Cause honestly you turned out to be the (best thing I never had)
Oh you turned out to be the (best thing I never had)
Oh, I will never be the (best thing you never had)
Oh baby, I bet it sucks to be you right now

What goes around, comes back around
What goes around, comes back around
I bet it sucks to be you right now
What goes around, comes back around
I bet it sucks to be you right now
What goes around, comes back around
I bet it sucks to be you right now

LYRICS BEYONCÉ | THE BEST THING I NEVER HAD | SPANISH

Donde las dan las toman (hey nene)
Donde las dan las toman (hey nene)
te digo donde las dan las toman (hey nene)
Donde las dan las toman…

Hubo un tiempo
en que pensaba que lo hacías todo bien
Sin mentiras, sin errores
Chico, debía estar loca
Así que cuando pienso en el tiempo en el que casi te amé
apareciste y vi tu verdadero yo

Gracias a Dios que lo arruinaste
Gracias a Dios que esquivé la bala
Te he superado tanto
Así que, nene, buena suerte en la búsqueda

Te quería mucho
pero ya lo he superado del todo
Porque honestamente resultaste ser lo (mejor que nunca tuve)
Te convertiste en lo (mejor que nunca tuve)
Y yo voy a ser siempre lo (mejor que nunca tuviste)
Oh sí, apuesto a que es un asco ser tú ahora mismo

Tan triste, estás herido
Gua gua, oh, esperabas que me importara
No te mereces mis lágrimas
Supongo que por eso no me salen
Cuando pienso que hubo un tiempo en que casi te amé
Apareciste y sí nene, vi tu verdadero yo

Gracias a Dios que lo arruinaste
Gracias a Dios que esquivé la bala
Te he superado tanto
Así que, nene, buena suerte en la búsqueda

Te quería mucho
pero ya lo he superado del todo
Porque honestamente resultaste ser lo (mejor que nunca tuve)
Te convertiste en lo (mejor que nunca tuve)
Y yo voy a ser siempre lo (mejor que nunca tuviste)
Oh sí, apuesto a que es un asco ser tú ahora mismo

Sé que quieres que vuelva
Es hora de enfrentarte a los hechos
Que yo soy la que se ha ido
Dios sabe que tomaría otro lugar, otro tiempo, otro mundo, otra vida
Gracias a Dios encontré lo bueno en el adiós

Te quería mucho
pero ya lo he superado del todo
Porque honestamente resultaste ser lo (mejor que nunca tuve)
Te convertiste en lo (mejor que nunca tuve)
Y yo voy a ser siempre lo (mejor que nunca tuviste)
Oh, lo mejor que nunca tuviste

Te quería mucho
pero ya lo he superado del todo
Porque honestamente resultaste ser lo (mejor que nunca tuve)
Te convertiste en lo (mejor que nunca tuve)
Y yo voy a ser siempre lo (mejor que nunca tuviste)
Oh sí, apuesto a que es un asco ser tú ahora mismo

Donde las dan las toman
Donde las dan las toman
Apuesto a que es un asco ser tú ahora mismo
Donde las dan las toman
Apuesto a que es un asco ser tú ahora mismo
Donde las dan las toman
Apuesto a que es un asco ser tú ahora mismo

Did you know...?

In the video clip Beyoncé walks down the aisle without holding her father’s arm. She said that it was very strange for her, since it was one of the most emotional moments of her real wedding with Jay Z.

She had to explain to her mother that it was just a video and nothing was wrong 😂

The song was not originally written as a ballad, but was inspired by the drums of the 1985 song, The Show‘ by Doug E. Fresh

‘Best Thing I Never Had’ sold 1,000,000 copies and reached the top 10 in multiple countries such as the UK, Ireland and New Zealand.

Much more | Live, fan alternative version, etc.

Beyoncé couldn’t go to her prom, so she came up with the idea of recreating one in the video, but with a partner who ignores her and makes her feel uncomfortable.

  • Later, based on that concept, she thought it would be very cool to ask fans for photos and videos of their weddings or prom day and making an alternative video clip. You can find it around.

We all know Beyoncé is a beast on stage, as evidenced by these 2 live performances of ‘Best Thing I Never Had‘:
