Aloe Blacc, 'The Man' - Song Meaning
Who wants to be 'The Man'? Pretty much any dude out there. Aloe Blacc, whose folky, lived-in and soulful voice powers Avicii's ear-bending 'Wake Me Up,' has a second hit on his hands with 'The Man.' On the surface, it's the declarations of a man who strokes his own ego. Unearth a few more layers of meaning and you'll realize it's far deeper than that.
