Arranged by Adam Overacker for String Love string quartet, this instant classic is Ray’s top song on Spotify with over 165,000,000 streams! It’s been a constant on our playlists for preludes, cocktail hours, and ceremonies for many years. It’s got a singable and recognizable melody, but it’s also got an infectious rhythm that is both fun to listen to and fun to play.
The song is from Ray’s album Gossip in the Grain, an album that Pop Matters calls "the artist’s most cohesive, career-defining album to date.” Billboard also loved the album, saying "While there's not a bad song in the bunch, once you've heard LaMontagne loosen up, you're left starving for more of it.” You Are The Best Thing has been covered by numerous artists and has appeared in movies and tv shows including I Love You, Man, Bad Moms, and American Idol.
