Benson Boone – sorry I’m here for someone else
February 2025 brought a wave of strong new releases, and “Sorry I’m Here for Someone Else” by Benson Boone is no exception. It’s a striking follow-up to his breakout hit Beautiful Things, but with a different emotional texture. While that song thrived on raw vulnerability and soaring vocals, this one leans into a more danceable rhythm with a subtle yet undeniable 80s-inspired vibe. Think soft synths, a pulsing beat, and just the right touch of nostalgia.
It is introspective, yes, but it doesn’t wallow. Instead, it moves, both emotionally and sonically. Benson Boone continues to show range, delivering heartfelt storytelling with a voice that carries both ache and restraint, all wrapped in a surprisingly infectious sound.
reflections of an unquiet mind 
Boone’s certainly become one of the hottest young male singers today, aided in part by his flamboyant and highly sexualized live performances. While I concede that he’s talented, I didn’t like “Beautiful Things” because of his irritating scream in the chorus. I like “Sorry I’m Here for Someone Else” more.

I like this one more too, but the other had its moments too. I haven’t seen anything of him live and I haven’t watched the videos. I always prefer Spotify or SoundCloud links but not enough use SoundCloud and too many don’t use Spotify
