"Somebody That I Used to Know" is a song written, produced and performed by Belgian-Australian musician and singer Gotye featuring vocals from New Zealand singer Kimbra. The song was released in Australia and New Zealand through Eleven Music on 5 July 2011 as the second single from Gotye's third studio album, Making Mirrors (2011). It was later released by Universal Music in December 2011 in the United Kingdom, and 20 January 2012 in Ireland and the United States. "Somebody That I Used to Know" was written and recorded by Gotye at his parents' house on the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria, Australia, and is lyrically related to the experiences he has had with romantic relationships.
The song is a mid-tempo ballad. It samples Luiz Bonfá's instrumental "Seville" from his album, Luiz Bonfá Plays Great Songs (1967), with percussion blending Latin and African rhythms over a xylophone melody based on "Baa, Baa, Black Sheep". Lyrically, the song describes the aftermath of a romantic relationship from both members’ perspectives. [4]
Commercially, "Somebody That I Used to Know" was a global success and became both artists' signature song. It reached the top of the charts in Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States, as well as 25 other official charts, and reached the Top 10 in more than 30 countries. It was the most commercially successful recording of 2011 in Flanders (Belgium), the most successful of 2012 in Canada, Israel, the United Kingdom, the United States and Wallonia (Belgium), and the most successful of the 2010s decade by an Australian artist in Australia. It is certified multi-platinum in ten countries, including Diamond in Australia. Globally, "Somebody That I Used to Know" has sold more than 13 million copies, becoming one of the best-selling digital singles ever.[5] In addition to the Hot 100, it was also placed at the top of Billboard's Year-End Adult Top 40 and Alternative Airplay charts, and many other charts around the world. As of October 2024, it has been streamed more than 2.3 billion times on Spotify.[6]
The song won the Triple J Hottest 100 poll at the end of 2011 as well as ARIA Music Awards for Song of the Year and Best Video; Kimbra was voted "Best Female Artist" while Gotye was named "Best Male Artist" and "Producer of the Year". At the 55th Grammy Awards, "Somebody That I Used to Know" was awarded Best Pop Duo and Record of the Year. The song has also been performed several times on major American television shows including The Voice, American Idol and Saturday Night Live.

Composition and recording
Gotye discussed writing "Somebody That I Used to Know" in an interview with Sound on Sound:
<templatestyles src="Template:Blockquote/styles.css" />
"Writing 'Somebody' was a gradual and linear process. I started with the Luiz Bonfa sample, then I found the drums, and after that I started working on the lyric and the melody, and added the wobbly guitar-sample melody. After that, I took a break, and a few weeks later I came back to the session and decided on the chorus chord progression, wrote the chorus melody, and combined that with sounds like the Latin loop and some of the percussion and the flute sounds that further filled the space. At that point I hit a brick wall. I was thinking: 'This is pretty good, how can I get to the end really quickly?' and I was trying to take lazy decisions to finish the song. I considered repeating the chorus, an instrumental bridge, a change in tempo or key, I even considered finishing the song after the first chorus. But nothing felt like it was strong enough. So the third session was all about writing the female part and changing the perspective. The arrangement of 'Somebody' is reflective of me moving towards using sounds that provide me with inspiration for a texture or a platform for an idea, and then through sonic manipulation and coming up with original melodies and harmonic ideas to make it my own. I guess the balance of sounds taken from records and samples I created myself is perhaps 50–50."[7]

"Somebody That I Used to Know" is a mid-tempo art pop song[1][8] and has a length of four minutes and five seconds.[9] Gotye uses a sample of Brazilian jazz guitarist Luiz Bonfá's 1967 instrumental song "Seville",[10] with additional instrumentations of beats and a xylophone playing a melody based on "Baa, Baa, Black Sheep".[11][12] It was written and produced by Gotye himself, while in his parents' barn on the Mornington Peninsula, Victoria. Gotye commented that he wrote the song "in quite a linear way", explaining that "I wrote the first verse, the second verse, and I'd got to the end of the first chorus and for the first time ever I thought, 'There's no interesting way to add to this guy's story'. It felt weak."[13]
The track was recorded between January and May 2011 with Gotye struggling to find a suitable female vocalist, as a "'high profile' female vocalist" cancelled the collaboration at the last minute, and Kimbra "lucked out as the replacement".[14] He tested his girlfriend, Tash Parker, but "somehow their happiness meant that it didn't work out" so he followed the recommendation of the song's mixer and used Kimbra's vocals.[14][15] Martin Davies from Click Music considered the song "instantly captivating", and named Kimbra's voice "clean and sugar-soaked", further commenting that it bears an "uncanny resemblance" to singer Katy Perry.[16]
Gotye stated that the song was "definitely drawn from various experiences I've had in relationships breaking up, and in the parts of the more reflective parts of the song, in the aftermath and the memory of those different relationships and what they were and how they broke up and what's going on in everyone's minds. Yeah, so it's an amalgam of different feelings but not completely made up as such."[17] In an interview with Rolling Stone (Australia), he described the song as "a curated reflection of multiple past relationships".[18]
In 2024, Gotye and Kimbra released a remix of the song alongside Fisher, Chris Lake and Sante Sansone.[19]
Critical reception
The song received universal acclaim, winning the Grammy for Record of the Year. Take 40 Australia elaborated on the audience's reception at the July 2011 Splendour in the Grass festival, "Gotye's latest song featuring Kimbra 'Somebody That I Used To Know' had become somewhat of an unofficial anthem for the festival ... every car was cranking it over their speakers all day, every day ... and the question on everyone's lips was whether or not Kimbra would join him on the track. Fortunately, dreams came true ... he smashed out an incredible set climaxing with a version of the song with Kimbra on co-lead vocals that people couldn't stop talking about all weekend long".[20] AllMusic's Jon O'Brien felt the track was an "unexpected chart-topper ... [it] is an oddball break-up song whose stuttering rhythms, reggae hooks, and hushed vocals sound like The Police as remixed by The xx".[21] Writing for Digital Spy, Lewis Corner rated the song four stars out of five and described it as "a Bon Iver-styled ballad for the music-buying masses".[22]
Entertainment Weekly ranked the song at number 2 on their "Best singles of 2012" list: "When a funny-named Aussie and his New Zealand sidekick first emerged with a quirky, minimalist breakup ballad, it seemed like the least likely candidate for a Hot 100 No. 1 since 'Macarena.'"[23] MTV ranked the song at number 3 on their "Best Songs of 2012" list.[24] PopMatters ranked the song at number 14 on their "The 75 best songs of 2012" list: "Gotye manages to balance real nuanced emotions of a tortured heart bested only when the woman he is pouring his heart out to takes the stage revealing his inability to see past his own nose."[25]
Metro placed "Somebody That I Used To Know" on their "Top 10 annoying songs of 2012" list: "According to the internet there is going to be an apocalypse on Friday, but you can be sure that once the dust has settled the plinky plonky xylophone intro of this inexorable viral hit will drift into earshot, as if emanating from the scorched earth itself."[26]
John Watson, who co-manages Gotye with Danny Rogers, said of the single's success: "We've never seen any song make a deeper or more immediate connection with so many people. It's a really special recording and video".[27] Talking about the overwhelming reception and the amount of coverage received, Gotye commented that "I don't really feel like it [the song] belongs to me anymore."[28] He further explained that "sometimes I feel like I'm a bit sick of it. My inbox, on any given day, has at least five covers or parodies or remixes of it and there's only so many times you can listen to the one song."[28]
Commercial performance
In the week commencing 18 July 2011, "Somebody That I Used to Know" debuted at number 27 on the ARIA Singles Chart.[29][30][31] It was released on 5 July 2011 in Australia and New Zealand by Eleven Music as the second single from his third studio album, Making Mirrors (2011).[29] Despite an initial lack of airplay on major radio stations, the song reached number 1 in the week ending 15 August, becoming the first single by either artist to do so and their most successful single.[30][32] Until 2014, the song was one of the two-second-longest-running Australian number-one songs, with eight weeks at the top,[30] tied with Savage Garden's 1997 song "Truly Madly Deeply", and behind Daddy Cool's 1971 hit "Eagle Rock", which stayed there for ten weeks.[33] In August 2011, the song was released in Belgium and the Netherlands. After a few weeks in the charts, it reached number 1 in both countries, topping the Belgian Singles Chart for 12 weeks.[34][35] Also in August, "Somebody That I Used to Know" debuted at number 4 in New Zealand on the RIANZ Singles Chart, reaching number 1 three weeks later,[36] thus making Gotye the first Australian artist to reach number 1 since Guy Sebastian did so in February 2011 with "Who's That Girl".[37] The song debuted on the Irish Singles Chart on 13 January 2012 at number 47, later reaching number 1 position.[38] In the United Kingdom, "Somebody That I Used to Know" spent five non-consecutive weeks at number 1.[39][40]
In the United States, it debuted at number 91 on the Billboard Hot 100 on 14 January 2012. In its fifteenth week on the chart – after it was performed by Matt Bomer and Darren Criss on Glee on 10 April; by Phillip Phillips and Elise Testone on the eleventh season of American Idol before more than 16 million viewers on 11 April;[41] and by Gotye and Kimbra on Saturday Night Live on 14 April – the song rose to number 1,[42] where it stayed for eight consecutive weeks.[43][44][45][46] thus becoming the longest-running number 1 by a solo male artist since Flo Rida's "Low" led for ten weeks in 2008. The song had the fourth highest-selling single week ever with 542,000 digital downloads sold, and was the first Australian single to top the Hot 100 since Savage Garden's "I Knew I Loved You" in 2000.[47][48] The song also topped the Alternative Songs chart for twelve weeks[43] tying with Fuel's Hemorrhage (In My Hands) and Linkin Park's Numb and New Divide, as well as topping the Radio Songs, Digital Songs, On-Demand Songs,[49] Pop Songs, Adult Pop Songs, Adult Contemporary, and Hot Dance Club Songs charts in that country.[43] On 2 May 2012 the song became the first to reach digital sales of at least 400,000 for three consecutive weeks,[50] and the following week it became the first to simultaneously top the Alternative Songs, Hot Dance Club Songs, and Dance Mix Show Airplay charts.[51] It also became the number 1 song of 2012 on the Alternative Songs, Adult Pop Songs, and Billboard Hot 100 charts. By 22 February 2013, the song became the tenth longest-charting song in the history of the Billboard Hot 100, at 59 weeks on the chart.[52] As of October 2015, the song has sold 7.9 million copies in the US, making it the country's fourth all-time best-selling digital single.[53]
"Somebody That I Used to Know" reached number one in more than 23 national charts and charted inside the top ten in more than 30 countries around the world.[48] By the end of 2012, the song became the best-selling song of that year with 11.8 million copies sold,[54] ranking among the best-selling digital singles ever. As of April 2012, it is the most downloaded song ever in Belgium,[55] as well as being the third best-selling digital single in Germany with sales between 500,000 and 600,000 copies,[56][57] and the most successful song in the history of the Dutch charts.[58] As of January 2013 it has received eleven Platinum certifications in Australia, accounting for shipments exceeding 770,000 units.[59] In New Zealand, it was certified four times Platinum. The song was the best-selling single of 2012 in the UK with 1,318,000 copies sold.[60][61]
Gotye has not monetised the song or any of his others through advertisements on YouTube, as he believes that there is too much advertising in the world. He has licensed its use to student films free of charge, but has turned down approaches from some commercial films: "If someone wants to use it commercially I look at what the budget is and the creativity of the project".[62]
Accolades
In July 2011, the song finished third in the Vanda & Young Global Songwriting Competition[63] Earlier that year, Gotye had first noticed Kimbra when both were short-listed as finalists for the competition.[15] At the ARIA Music Awards of 2011, "Somebody That I Used to Know" won Single of the Year, Best Pop Release, Best Video (for Natasha Pincus), Engineer of the Year (for François Tétaz) and Producer of the Year (for Gotye). Gotye also won Best Male Artist for the song while Kimbra won Best Female Artist for her previous single, "Cameo Lover".[48][64] At the APRA Music Awards of 2012, "Somebody That I Used to Know" won Most Played Australian Work and Song of the Year and Gotye won Songwriter of the Year.[65] It was also nominated at the 2012 Teen Choice Awards for "Choice Rock Song" and "Choice Break-Up Song".[66][67] The song was nominated at the 55th Grammy Awards for Record of the Year and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance, winning both awards. The Village Voice's Pazz & Jop annual critics' poll ranked "Somebody That I Used to Know" at number eight of the best music of 2012.
In 2019, Stereogum ranked the song as the 161st best song of the 2010s.[68] In January 2018, as part of Triple M's "Ozzest 100", "Somebody That I Used to Know" was ranked number 98.[69] In 2021, its first year of eligibility, "Somebody That I Used to Know" was inducted into the National Film and Sound Archive's Sounds of Australia as an Australian sound recording with "cultural, historical and aesthetic significance."[70]
Music video
The music video for "Somebody That I Used to Know" was produced, directed and edited by Australian artist Natasha Pincus and filmed by Australian cinematographer Warwick Field. It shows Gotye and Kimbra naked throughout the clip, and as they sing, his skin is gradually painted into the backdrop via stop motion animation. In the director's cut, this went as far as to feature concealed nudity, though this version was never posted.[citation needed] The video's background is based on a 1980s artwork created by Gotye's father, Frank de Backer, who also designed the cover art for the related album, Making Mirrors.[71][72][73] Emma Hack, an Australian artist and skin illustrator based in Adelaide, was hired by Pincus to work on the body paintings for Gotye and Kimbra. Melbourne Scenic Artist Howard Clark painted the backdrop.[72] According to Hack, it took more than 23 hours to paint both Gotye and Kimbra to fit with Howard's background.[72] Their painting symbolises their combined relationship.[72]
Before its official premiere, the music video was leaked on Take 40 Australia's website. According to Pincus, "It was stolen out of our system. I guess it's always wanted to get out there. Within five minutes it was everywhere".[71] On 30 July 2011 it was officially premiered on YouTube and on the Australian music show Rage. The music video was well received for its artistic style, picking up 200,000 views in its first two weeks, as well as receiving promotion on Twitter by actor Ashton Kutcher and Katy Perry.[27][71]
"What a video!" Snow Patrol's Gary Lightbody enthused to Q. "I have become obsessed with it and not just because I'm in love with Kimbra. Gotye himself is an engaging character for sure... his solemnly expressive eyes finish a journey his lyrics only begin. 'Told myself that you were right for me but felt so lonely in your company' – simple, pure, and devastating. None more than the title line when it speaks of the end of love with prosaic brutality: 'Now you're just somebody that I used to know.' Great video, powerful lyrics, and a stunning voice. Oh, and Kimbra... my poor heart..."[74]
On 1 November 2022, the video hit 2 billion views and 13 million likes on YouTube.[75] The video for "Somebody That I Used to Know" was voted number 1 in the annual Rage Fifty countdown.[76] Andy Samberg and Taran Killam parodied the video in a Saturday Night Live "digital short" that coincided with Gotye's 14 April 2012 performance on the show.[77] The video was nominated for Video of the Year and Best Editing in a Video at the 2012 MTV Video Music Awards.[78] As of January 2015, Billboard named the video as one of the 20 best of the 2010s (so far).[79]

Also in January 2012, Walk off the Earth had their U.S. television debut on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, recreating the single-guitar performance live.

Gotye paid tribute to the overwhelming number of cover versions of the song by personally creating a video remix, released in August 2012, using segments from hundreds of online covers to create a new, unique version of the track, titled "Somebodies: A YouTube Orchestra".[98][99] Gotye states the concept "was directly inspired here by Kutiman's Thru-You project", released in March 2009, which edited numerous YouTube videos to create a new cohesive song.[98]

On 22 July 2020, Canadian rock band Three Days Grace covered the song and released it as a non-album single.[264] The song was later included as a bonus track on the Japanese version of the group's seventh album Explosions.[265] A music video (directed by Mike Filsinger) was also released for this version, which features the band performing in a Sketch-like background.[266] Their cover charted in the rock song charts of Canada and the United States. The song reached number seven on the Billboard Canada Rock chart and number 19 on the US Rock Airplay chart.[267][268]
Background
Lead vocalist Matt Walst noted about the song, saying: "The first time I heard 'Somebody That I Used to Know' I got goosebumps! This has only happened to me a few times in my life. I remember listening to it over and over and just being happy. Music releases a mood[-]enhancing chemical in the brain that can set good moods and peak enjoyment. Music is truly the best drug!"[266]
Composition
The track was produced by drummer Neil Sanderson and Howard Benson.[269] Bassist Brad Walst told Brave Words that Matt Walst sent him a voicemail of him singing the song with an acoustic guitar and Brad thought it would be a good idea to release a cover of it. The group recorded the track separately.[270]
Music video
A music video was released on 22 July 2020, and was directed by Mike Filsinger.[271] It was recorded on an iPhone with the band members performing in front of a white tarp and a filter was added on top of it after it was finished.[270]
