Somewhere Out There, also known as Gravity, is a 2002 single by Canadian rock band Our Lady Peace from the album Gravity. It was the most successful single of that album and is also the most internationally successful single ever released by Our Lady Peace.

The correct title of the song is indeed Somewhere Out There, however the specific chorus lyrics "defying Gravity" and the fact that the album is titled "Gravity", led some to believe that the title of the song was "Gravity". The song is mislabeled as such in some search engines, lyric websites, and P2P file–sharing programs.

The song is one of Our Lady Peace's most successful singles to date, having been very popular both in Canada and the United States. Many critics praised the single, but some also criticized it for being "too mainstream", saying that the artistic uniqueness that Our Lady Peace possessed in former albums was absent here.

In Our Lady Peace's most recent album, A Decade, which includes many of Our Lady Peace's greatest hits, Somewhere Out There is featured. The new album is to be released by holiday 2006 in Canada.
