"I have always wanted to work with Beyoncé. I wrote one of my best songs, 'I Was Here,' and I thought that the one artist who would be my dream to sing this would be Beyoncé. This is one of those magical stories where what is meant to be actually happens. I played it for her, and she loved it and said she was going to record it immediately. This kind of thing never happnes! Without even hearing it a second time, two days later she was recording it!!! I've never had chills through my entire body like I had from hearing Beyoncé sing this song. 'I Was Here' came from my soul and became the song that was coming from hers. In all my life, I have never heard anything as amazing as this. Hearing her sing 'I Was Here' will forever be one of the best moments of my life, and I know that this song will touch many other lives as well." - Diane Warren
