"You've Never Been This Far Before" is a song written and recorded by American country artist Conway Twitty. It was released in July 1973 as the second single and title track from the album You've Never Been This Far Before. The song was Twitty's 10th number one on the country chart as a solo artist. The single stayed at number one for three weeks and spent a total of 16 weeks on the chart.[1]

"You've Never Been This Far Before" was Twitty's only song from the country chart to cross over onto the Top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100, where the single peaked at number 22.[2]

Content

In the song, the narrator describes his attempts to calm his nervous virgin girlfriend during her first time. The song was controversial at the time of its release, with several radio stations banning it, due to what were considered by some to be overly sexual lyrics.[3]

Canadian singer Carroll Baker released a version titled "I've Never Been This Far Before".[4] This version of the song reached number one on the RPM Country Tracks chart in Canada in May 1975.[5]
