If I Was Your Man

"If I Was Your Man" is a song by American recording artist Joe. It was written by Mikkel Storleer Eriksen and Tor Erik Hermansen along with Phillip Lamont Jackson for his sixth studio album Ain't Nothin' Like Me (2007), with production handled by the former two for Stargate. The contemporary R&B ballad was selected as the album's second single and released to US radios on July 13, 2007. It peaked at number 84 on the Billboard Hot 100 and reached the top forty of the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. The song's accompanying music video features a cameo appearance by actor Blair Underwood and was inspired by the ending scene of the film Casablanca as his love interest leaves Joe for the man in the plane.

gollark: Oh, yes, I definitely trust the magic inscrutable boxes™.
gollark: I am not that great at understanding weird social group dynamics things. I don't like them, and I wouldn't really like relying on that sort of thing for survival.
gollark: Anyway, to me, the utopian "means of production are shared, and the fruits of labor are also shared" thing with stuff managed by social whatever instead of financial incentives actually doesn't sound utopian and is quite bad.
gollark: But they're still fairly widely supported on one side, or they couldn't happen.
gollark: Yes, the current ones are just random relatively small conflicts.
