"Someone Else's Star" is a country song co-written by Skip Ewing and Jim Weatherly, and first recorded by singer Davis Daniel on his 1994 album Davis Daniel. A year later, Bryan White cut the song for his self-titled debut album, and released his version as a single. The third single from this album, it was also his first Number One on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) chart.
The song's narrator is a male character who laments his inability to find someone with whom he can fall in love. He then assumes that others are getting what he is wishing for, because he is "wishing on someone else's star".
White's version of the song debuted at number 60 on the Hot Country Songs chart dated May 27, 1995. It charted for twenty weeks on that chart, and reached Number One on the chart dated September 9, 1995, where it remained for one week, also giving White his first Number One single.
