"Lost You Anyway" is a song co-written and recorded by American country music artist Toby Keith. It was released in March 2009 as the third and final single from his album That Don't Make Me a Bad Guy. The song peaked at number 10 on the US Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. Keith wrote this song with Bobby Pinson. Content"Lost You Anyway" is a ballad in which the male narrator looks back on a failed relationship. He lists off various things that he could have done in attempts to keep his lover from leaving, but then says that he probably would have "lost [her] anyway". Critical receptionDan Milliken of Country Universe gave the song a C− rating. He said that the lyrics were largely uninspired, but added that the production was solid, and that Keith's vocals were strong.[1] Jonathan Keefe of Slant magazine critic Jonathan Keefe said that although Keith's masculine image tended to make his ballads sound insincere, "Lost You Anyway" was still a better-constructed song in comparison to other similar songs on country radio.[2] Chart performance
