In 2005, when "Have You Ever?" was included on her first compilation album "The Best of Brandy", Norwood recounted the recording of the song: "It was the first time I was in a recording studio with David Foster. Of the song's production, she said, "My voice was not as developed then as it is now and the song demanded what producers call 'Money Notes' - what makes the song a listetta. I was really nervous but it went well. ". In an interview with "Complex", she elaborated on the recording process:"It did not take so many shots but they definitely took over a few times to have some to choose from. But again, I admired these people so immensely. I think it helped me, because I wanted to do well. "I wanted to impress them. So I tried everything possible. I was not afraid to be ashamed, I have never been. Sometimes my voice broke and I missed tones but I tried."  In a separate interview, Warren said: "For me, it's a classic. She sang it wonderfully. I'm still waiting for the country version ."
