Written by: Keyali Mikaela

Okay, Benson Boone just did that. His new single, “Sorry I’m Here for Someone Else”, is a whole vibe. The song hits different—it's that perfect blend of pop-rock energy with those emotionally charged lyrics we need to scream along to.

First off, we’ve all been there. You run into an ex while you’re with someone new, and it’s awkward in the most heartbreaking way. Boone nails it with lines like, “I’m sorry, I’m here for someone else / It’s good to see your face / And I really hope you’re doing well.” It’s the emotional rollercoaster of feeling something for your past while trying to stay true to the present—and Boone makes us feel every second of it.

The track has this electric pop-rock sound, with those bouncy synths and a beat that makes you wanna roll the windows down and drive with no destination. It’s upbeat, but don’t let that fool you—there’s still that underlying bittersweetness that tugs at your heartstrings. It’s the kind of song that’ll have you vibing one second, then getting deep in your feels the next.

After his insane success with “Beautiful Things”, which literally became a 5x Platinum hit and earned him major Grammy noms, it’s clear Benson is here to stay. He’s building on that momentum, and “Sorry I’m Here for Someone Else” is the perfect sneak peek into what’s next.

So, yeah, this track is a certified hit. It’s catchy, it’s real, and it’s exactly what we needed. Can’t wait to see what he does next, but for now, we’ll just be over here blasting this on repeat.
