To many, Sloan is one of today's quintessential Canadian bands, as cliche as it might sound. Since their debut EP Peppermintin 1992, the fab four - Halifax natives, now relocated to Toronto - have forged a distinct niche for themselves in the Canadian scene. The outfit includes Jay Ferguson and Patrick Pentland on guitar, Chris Murphy on bass, and Andrew Scott on drums; each have their own unique songwriting voice and style, each contribute equally. Sloan's humble beginnings with the aforementioned EP led them to a signing with David Geffen, where they released Smearedthat same year. Following that album and hailed as "Canada's Nirvana," they took a sharp turn with Twice Removed(1994) and never looked back.

Sugartune Lyrics

Sloan

I wrote for you this sugartune
To help you through what you've gotta do
When you're on the ground, and keep fallin' down
Remember how I made this sound
Sound, sound, sound, sound

When you're on your own, feeling all alone
Remember that you've always got a home
I'm outside, tryin' hard to hide
The fact that I'm scared to be by your side

I know when everybody's got one
You want one too
I know when everybody's got one
You want one too

I wrote for you this sugartune
To help you through what you've gotta do
When you're on the ground, and keep fallin' down
Remember how I made this sound
Sound, sound, sound, sound
