"Everything You've Done Wrong" was the second single Sloan pulled from One Chord to Another in 1996, out on Murderecords, and it became the Canadian band's highest-charting single at home, peaking at 6 on the RPM chart. Jay Ferguson, Chris Murphy, Patrick Pentland and Andrew Scott all share the writing credit, and it plays like it: lean, hooky and quick on its feet.
Chris Soos shot the video at Toronto's Royal York Hotel with the band booked to play a wedding that falls apart in front of them. It opens with Scott behind a curtain at the piano picking out "Junior Panthers", another One Chord to Another track, before he joins the others onstage, and by the end a crowd of Sloan fans has wandered in to watch. Both the single and the clip were nominated at the 1998 East Coast Music Awards, for Single of the Year and Video of the Year.
