"Somewhere There's a Someone" is a song written by Baker Knight, which was released in 1966 by Dean Martin.
"Somewhere There's a Someone" was released as a seven-inch single in February 1966 by Reprise Records.

Both songs were produced by Jimmy Bowen and arranged by Ernie Freeman.
The single was met with a positive critical reception upon its release. Billboard magazine said that the "With the feel and sound of "Everybody Loves Somebody," Martin has a strong contender for a big chart winner."
