"Target Practice" is a song by British musician Belouis Some, released on 21 May 1984 as his first major label single after his 1981 debut "Lose It to You". The song was written by Some, and produced by Peter Schwier and Ian Little.
"Target Practice" was re-recorded in New York in early 1985, with Steve Thompson and Michael Barbiero as the producers. This new version was included on Some's 1985 debut album Some People. It was also released as a single in 1986 and reached No. 16 on South Africa Springbok Chart in 1986, which was his third consecutive top 20 hit there. A music video for the 1986 release was directed by Brian Travers and produced by Annie Croft for PMI.
