Songfacts®:

  • This upbeat jam hides a deeper meaning. "The song is very sparkly and there is a bit of that firecracker type of feel to it, but if you really read the lyrics and stuff, there's some questions there, and where did those questions come from?" guitarist and bassist Søren Hansen told ABC Radio. "Maybe a darker place. And I think that balance of it, I think, is what's really cool about that song."
  • According to a social media post by the band, "'One Of Us' represents friendship, love & unity."
