  • SUGER RUSH CHARLIE!!!! This is an awsome song great music with great lirics and yeah I think every guy has felt like he was the other man! I call it the spare wheel syndrome! & this spare wheel needs some air!

  • At first the the other man (patriot) is mocked and scorned...

  • I'm surrounded by MTV zombies.... try listening to the song with your eyes closed .... you may surprise yourself. At least there's still some of us left that know what good music is when we "hear" it. You know who you are ;)

  • Full tank, no destination, unfamiliar scenery given meaning by the melodies of Sloan.

  • Ohhhhhhh my god it took me years to find this song, I had remembered the lyrics faintly ((I think it was "The ONLY man, or, the LONELY man" and I kept searching through bands song lists I thought it was! The Verve, Oasis, Blur! Nothing! It was Sloan! Dear God it was Sloooooooooan. FINALLY!

  • @ShadowCrowX

    The song's actually about Chris Murphy's relationship with Fiest (the girl who sings 1-2-3-4, you've heard of her) While she was still dating a guy from Broken Social Scene.

  • @annyongSC cool to know what it was initially about when I no longer identify with the songs meaning. thanks

    that was the funniest comment i've seen all year. i love this song for the same reason. not a lot of people get's this song. this song is like an antem for other men all over the world. i couldn't have made a better song for the situation that me and a lot of other "other man". have been in. if your an other man, then big up, we do the real work and the women know it.
