  • Awesome Music:
    • "24 Hr Drive-Thru", a lighthearted song about engaging in some Drive-Thru Antics with a friend on a rainy day.
    • "The Title Track", the Signature Song of Somewhere City, for its smooth and memorable guitar riffs and themes of escapism in the lyrics.
    • "The Air Up Here" mashes up everything great about Somewhere City into one track. Ryland seamlessly switches between rough vocals and more emotional singing when he's announcing his decision to stay in Somewhere City for good. It effectively recaps the album by playing verses from almost every previous track in sequence. The sound of "Welcome to..." growing and overpowering "666 Flags" and "Skeleton Key" and culminating in a scream of the album's Arc Words is something to be believed:
    • "The Brightest Days" perfectly sets the tone of the album, with its tropical tone and acoustic ukulele track. It then segues into a guitar track with Ryland singing about how he's hoping to rediscover the fun of summer that he experienced as a kid.
    • "Thank You, New Jersey", a subtly sarcasm-laden song taking traditional California surf cliches and applying them to overcrowded New Jersey beaches.
    • "My PG County Summer" has a perfect summer vibe and contrasting lyrics about Ryland's experience with living in the DC area and the disillusion he feels over riots around the capitol building.
    • "Few and Far Between" is an Ironic Echo of "The Brightest Days", keeping up a fast pace while discussing feelings of hopeless seasonal depression and reinforcing the ways the world has changed for the worse.
  • Suspiciously Similar Song: "Kobayashi Maru (My Very Own)" has the same chorus melody as "Conductor's Cabin" from Hiveswap: Act 2.
