Some Say (Nea song)

"Some Say" is a song by Swedish singer Nea and was released as her debut single on 6 September 2019. Following the song's success in Europe in late 2019 and early 2020, the song was remixed by German DJ Felix Jaehn. The remix was released on 10 January 2020.

The song has since reached number one in Belgium (Wallonia), Slovakia and Poland, the top ten in Austria, Denmark, Hungary, the Netherlands, Norway, Romania and Switzerland, as well as the top 20 in Australia, Belgium (Flanders), France, Germany and Sweden. The song interpolates Eiffel 65's 1998 song, "Blue (Da Ba Dee)".

Lyrically, it sees Nea singing about an unrequited love and is inspired by events experienced by a friend of hers. Nea describes that "the song is about love that you can't attain but that you can't give up on". On Genius, she explained that the opening lyrics of the song describe the moment "when you love someone so completely and the other person doesn’t feel the same thing, you just wanna put the blame on something else… The time, the timing, anything but unreturned love."
