Something Like Human is the second album by American rock band Fuel, released on September 19, 2000, by Epic Records. Something Like Human peaked at number 17 on the Billboard 200,[1] and was preceded by the single "Hemorrhage (In My Hands)", which peaked at number 30 on the Billboard Hot 100 and remains their highest-charting song. The album's title comes from the lyric heard on its sixth track, "Prove".[2]

It remains Fuel's best-selling album. One year after its release, the album received double platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).[3] The album also received gold certification by Music Canada (MC) in June 2001.[4] Likewise with the band's previous album, it received moderate to average critical reception, with praise directed towards lead singer Brett Scallions.

The bonus version of the album includes an acoustic version of "Hemorrhage" and also includes the cover songs "Daniel", originally by Elton John, and "Going to California" by Led Zeppelin. In addition, these were also included on the album's bonus disc, which also contained the track "Walk the Sky" (previously made available on the reissue of the band's previous album), as well as music videos for "Hemorrhage (In My Hands)" and "Innocent" when inserted into a DVD player. The album's song "Empty Spaces" was used in the 2002 romance film A Walk to Remember, as well as its accompanying soundtrack.
