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!
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 ;)
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!
Does that kids parents know he's skipping band practice to draw himself, look at himself in the mirror and practice deathly violin blows in the bathroom? Band ain't cheap!
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.
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.
I go to the school this was filmed at

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