"Back 2 Good" is a song by American rock band Matchbox 20, released as the fifth single from their 1996 debut album, Yourself or Someone Like You, in September 1998.
The song was written by lead singer Rob Thomas and producer Matt Serletic, and is about a romantic relationship that seems to have reached its end, much to the chagrin of the singer.
[3] "Back 2 Good" was released with a music video, directed by an uncredited Paul Hunter.
The music video features the band walking through a street carnival while Thomas sings the lyrics to the song.
"Back 2 Good" was the band's biggest hit song on the US Billboard Hot 100 from Yourself or Someone Like You—peaking at number 24 in 1999—because their more successful prior hits, "Push" and "3AM", were not allowed to chart due to not receiving commercial releases in the US.
