"'Some People Do'" is a song recorded by American country music band Old Dominion. It was released on March 2, 2020 as the third single from their self-titled third studio album. The song was written by Matthew Ramsey, Jesse Frasure, Shane McAnally, Thomas Rhett and produced by Shane McAnally.
Background
Band wrote on Twitter: This song is a side of us we havent shown as blatantly, and its a little scary to put out into the world, but part of our job as songwriters is to tell the truth, even if its hard to go there.
Music
Matt Ramsey wrote on Instagram: Its a breaking-point kind of song. I think inherently were all good people and want to be good people, but no matter who you are, sometimes you hurt the ones you love, Its about that desire to be the best person you can be for those people.
The song featured a poignant piano melody and strings that fit with the reflective and heartbreaking lyrics.
Music video
The music video was released on April 3, 2020, directed by Mason Allen. It was inspired by Jason Schneidman, celebrity groomer who was once homeless, but changed his life around after battling drug addiction and found Old Dominion joining Schneidman to help his Mens Groomer Foundation in Los Angeles.
As the bands poignant single played on behind them, Schneidman and the band doled out haircuts and a hot meal to the local homeless community.
And band worte on Instagram: Everything about our friend Jasons life and mission is what this song is all about. Were grateful to him for telling his story and helping us capture the spirit of the song. We hope it helps lift you up a bit.

As of July 2019, the song has sold 15,000 copies in the United States.
