"Somewhere with You" is a song written by Shane McAnally and J. T. Harding and recorded by American country music singer Kenny Chesney. It was released in November 2010 as the second single from Chesney's 2010 album Hemingway's Whiskey. The song reached number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Songs chart in January–February 2011, where it stayed for 3 weeks.
In an interview with Country Music Television, Chesney said, "It's so different but I still felt that it was really me. I felt melodically it was completely different and sexy".[1] In an interview with Billboard, Chesney said, "This is a tortured soul song. If you get going with somebody, you've been in a relationship and for whatever reason she's gone or you're gone. And you're not necessarily in another relationship, but you're with somebody else, just starting something with somebody else. Trying to balance both those worlds is tough."[2]
Critical reception
Whitney Pastorek of Entertainment Weekly said that the song "has a compellingly dark vibe Chesney should try out more often."[3] Jon Caramanica of The New York Times believed that the chorus "recalls nothing so much as the Bee Gees."[4] Rick Moore of American Songwriter called the song one of the album's "high points".[5]
