"Bother" is a song by Corey Taylor which appeared on the Spider-Man soundtrack and Stone Sour's debut album, despite the fact that none of the other band members were involved in the creation of the song. The song was written about Corey Taylor's father, whom in a coincidental turn of events, he met for the first time after the release of the song.

The music video of "Bother" was directed by Gregory Dark and released in 2003. It shows Taylor singing the song while looking at what seems to be a mirror image of himself. However, as the video progresses, this "mirror image" begins to age, ultimately dying as the last words of the song are played.
