"Born Losers" was the lead single from Hospital Music, the 2007 album that marked Matthew Good's third solo outing, and the Canadian songwriter aimed it squarely at his own life: the song picks through personal corners of his marriage to the woman who is now his former wife. He wrote the words and music alone, with Nadia Johnson dropping in as a guest on backing vocals, and it's alternative rock with the bandages pulled off.
It climbed to 27 on the Canadian Hot 100, and south of the border the American iTunes Store made it a free Single of the Week, pulling in more than 340,000 downloads. The video stars Noah Cappe and his wife, Keri West.
