Beside Myself was Ray Stevens' twenty-sixth studio album and his sixth for MCA Records, released in 1989. It includes the singles "I Saw Elvis in a UFO" and "There's a Star Spangled Banner." The album was also his last for MCA Records before he moved to Curb Records for his next studio album, 1990's Lend Me Your Ears.

A repackaged version of this album, Ray Stevens — At His Best (MCAC-20695 cassette, MCAD-20695 CD), was released on December 18, 1992 with most of the same tracks in a different order, eliminating the tracks "Bad Dancin'" and "I Used to Be Crazy."[1] A different version of At His Best, with all ten tracks from Beside Myself in the original order, is available on iTunes.
