Intro Audio for Some People Do


Story Audio for Some People Do
Matthew Ramsey: “Some People Do” was written with Thomas Rhett, and Jesse Frazier, and Shane McAnally, and myself. And it was actually the second song that we wrote that day. The conversation that we were having, I forget what we were saying, but it was like, “Nobody likes that.” And someone went, “Well some people do.” And I think Thomas Rhett was like, “That’s a cool title, ‘Some People Do,’” and he just sat down at the piano and he started playing those chords. That piano part just immediately changes the room and makes you sit there and listen for a minute. So that’s what happened from the first time he played it, and we started thinking about that. It’s a breaking point song about- I don’t care who you are, if you are in this business you are hurting people, or you wind up hurting people that you love, and whether that be just with your travel, or maybe you are drinking too much. So the want to change is there, and I think inherently we’re all good people and want to be good people and it’s about that want to the best person for the people that you love.
