"Freaks Like Me" is a song recorded by American country music artist Joe Nichols.
The song is a "sturdy mid-tempo anthem"[1] expressing praise for a person who, according to Nichols, "honors tradition and old-fashioned things".
[3] Giving it a "B+", Tammy Ragusa of Nash Country Weekly wrote that the song is "refreshing to those who hanker for something different" and that "Joe's honey-smooth vocals give the tune an almost sleepy feel that contradicts the thumping groove, creating a unique, unapologetic vibe that makes you want to listen again.
"[4] Giving it 5 out of 5 stars, Markos Papadatos of Digital Journal praised the song's "killer electric guitar riffs and infectious melodies and hooks", Nichols' voice, and the lyrical content for "deal[ing] with the simple yet important values in life.
"[2] The song has peaked at #45 on the Country Airplay chart, becoming his first single to miss the Top 40 in eighteen years.
