The main use of special is to say that something is different to other things. That might be because it's better.

This isn't just chocolate – it's special.

It can also be because something is particularly important. Today is a really special day for me – my birthday!

This song is special to me – it brings back memories!

It can just be because something's different to other similar things – maybe it's for a particular reason.

You'll need a special tool for that – this one won't work.

So special can mean very good, very important, or just different.

Our audience is very special to us, so we try to make some special videos – like this one!
