All I Am Is All You're Not by Sloan

This one appears on Sloan's album Parallel Play, released last year. It's a fine tune, though not as memorable as some others on the album. It's a weird one to have in one's head, 'cause the chorus is strong and pedantic, and the verses are almost labyrinthine and hard to keep track of. So mostly I'm just singing in my head, "All I am is all you're not/All you want is all I've got" over and over again. And as Sinead O'Conner has said, "I do not want what I haven't got, so that's all I got.
