Keith Urban’s “Somebody Like You” is the song of love to self. Urban admitted that he wrote the song with the thought that he was trying to love himself just like other persons who have loved him. He added that by the time he finished the song and sang it to his girlfriend at that time, she said he was a hypocrite writing such a song.

So, as you listen to the song and hear every word of it, you will surely see Urban being truthful about how he felt for himself.
