Some People (Belouis Some song)

"Some People" is a song by British singer-songwriter Belouis Some, released in 1985 as the second single from his debut album Some People. The song is a synth-pop track characterized by its driving rhythm, distinctive synth melodies, and introspective lyrics.

While not as commercially successful as his debut single "Imagination," "Some People" further established Belouis Some's presence in the mid-1980s music scene. The song explores themes of isolation, disconnection, and the challenges of navigating social relationships. The lyrics reflect a sense of unease and observation of the behaviours of others, questioning superficial connections and highlighting the complexities of human interaction.

The single was released on vinyl and cassette, often including extended versions and B-sides. Music videos accompanied both "Imagination" and "Some People," and helped to boost the visibility of the artist. The single received moderate airplay on both sides of the Atlantic and is considered a notable track within the context of 1980s British synth-pop.
