When Somebody Loves You is the ninth studio album by American country music artist Alan Jackson. It was released on November 7, 2000, and produced the singles "Where I Come From", "www.memory", "When Somebody Loves You", and "It's Alright to Be a Redneck."
Critical reception to the album was pretty positive. Allmusic gave the album four out of five stars, saying "Jackson gets a vote not only for holding on to the tradition but because he is able to articulate its heart in a heartless age." While People found the album "innocuous enough" and "mildly amusing," ultimately the reviewer found it "a waste of one of the most distinctive voices in country music."
When Somebody Loves You peaked at #15 on the U.S. Billboard 200, and peaked at #1 on the Top Country Albums, his fifth #1 Country album. The album was certified platinum by the RIAA in August 2001.
