"Some People" is a song by American singer E. G. Daily, released in 1989 as the lead single from her second studio album Lace Around the Wound.
[3] In August, Daily appeared on American Bandstand to perform "Some People" along with "Bad Water".
[4] Upon release, Billboard listed the song as a recommended dance choice, commenting: "Singer/actress returns with an appealing pop cut that surprisingly enough sports an engaging Staples Singers-ish vocal approach".
Stylistically the song is similar to Robert Palmer's material from the late 70s and early 80s - gritty funk with a hard rock edge.
The strong, sing-along chorus and sparse instrumentation add up to a subtle but genuinely radio-friendly song.
