"Some Beach" is a song written by Rory Feek and Paul Overstreet and recorded by American country music artist Blake Shelton. It was released in July 2004 as the second single from Shelton's 2004 album Blake Shelton's Barn & Grill. The song became Shelton's third number one hit on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Songs chart and spent four weeks at that position.

Content

The narrator deals with frustrations, such as being flipped off in traffic on the highway and having to wait all afternoon at the dentist's office, by wishing that he were "on some beach, somewhere." The song's title is a double entendre, playing on a Southeastern U.S. dialectal form of the epithet "son of a bitch" ("som' bitch").[1]

Music video

The music video was directed by Peter Zavadil and features Shelton driving a pickup truck down a freeway, trying to park the truck, and going to the dentist. These scenes are interspersed with footage of Blake seated in a bar on his dream beach. But the message of the video seems to be that the grass is greener on the other side, as there is a woman seated beside Blake seemingly complaining constantly, which he is trying to ignore, and the bartender is talking on his mobile, oblivious to Blake's attempt to catch his attention.

Chart performance

"Some Beach" debuted at number 51 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Songs for the chart week of August 7, 2004.
