"Right Here" was the lead single from Chapter V, Staind's fifth studio album, and it hit rock radio through Flip Records in June 2005. Aaron Lewis wrote the words and shares the music credit with Mike Mushok, Johnny April and Jon Wysocki, and it's a slow-boiling post-grunge confession: brooding verses, a big, bruised chorus and Lewis sounding raw to the bone. David Bottrill produced and mixed it with plenty of weight in the low end.
It spent two weeks on top of Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart, reached number three on Modern Rock, and crossed over to pop radio, landing in the top 10 on both the Adult Top 40 and Mainstream Top 40. The video splits the band into four rooms of one house, with Lewis turning up in several of them.
