"Better Than" is a song by John Butler Trio from their fourth studio album, Grand National. Produced by John Butler and Mario Caldato Jr., it was released in the United States on 20 February 2007 as an online single, the third single in Australia and the first overseas single from the album.
The EP includes two previously unreleased tracks recorded in the Grand National sessions, and a special radio mix version of "Better Than" from US sound man, Chris Lord-Alge. To this day, the radio mix version still receives moderate airplay from adult alternative stations.
The EP debuted at number sixteen in the ARIA Singles Chart on 3 September 2007. "Better Than" was also popular in the Triple J Hottest 100, 2007 being voted at #4 and appearing on the compilation CD.
On 31 July 2007 the song was performed on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.
An accompanying music video for "Better Than", which utilizes the "Chris Lord-Alge radio mix" has been released on YouTube on August 1, 2007. In this video, members of the John Butler Trio band perform the song while on animated posters and performing on various spots of the streets with various pedestrians and skateboarders going by. Throughout, 2 messages (which reiterate the lyrical content in the song itself) are shown in a style of graffiti saying "The best things in life...aren't things!" and "Art changes people... people change the world."
Hi I'm Weijun and this is my life and im glad to share it with you guys :)

He also promotes awareness and understanding of the arts by working with students in local art programs. He aims to preserve this ancient art form while cultivating and encouraging the development of the next generation of artistic young people.

Winner 2003 | A TV2 Denmark Production, Cinemax, HBO, BBC During the early 1990s, impoverished citizens in rural China responded to a critical blood shortage by selling their blood for much-needed cash. Unsanitary collection methods caused many of them to become infected with HIV and to suffer the catastrophic effects of full-blown AIDS. To Live is Better Than to Die examines the depths of China’s growing epidemic by focusing on one family in the village of Wenlou in Henan province. In 2001, filmmaker/director/producer Weijun Chen traveled to Wenlou where he met Ma Shengyi, a poor farmer, his wife Leimei, and their three children. Some ten years earlier, Ma Shengyi and Leimei sold their blood and contracted the HIV virus. They have since passed it on to their two youngest children. With ...

‘What kind of thing is “Democracy”?’ Born into an authoritarian state that professes to value the greater good over individual expression, many Chinese children have little familiarity with Western ideals of democracy. Nevertheless, they prove themselves quick studies in Please Vote For Me, which chronicles China’s first ever modern classroom election, held among third-graders in the city of Wuhan. After the students learn the basic tenets of democracy, a campaign for the position of class monitor swiftly descends into an all too familiar jumble of campaign promises, back-room deals and dirty tricks. Funny, touching and full of small surprises, the Chinese director Weijun Chen’s documentary is a wry look at the democratic process and all its chaotic, imperfect promise. This version of Pl...
What does an education get you? In ancient times in China, education was the only way out of poverty -- in recent times it has been the best way. China's economic boom and talk of the merits of hard work have created an expectation that to study is to escape poverty. But these days China's higher education system only leads to jobs for a few, educating a new generation to unemployment and despair. Director Weijun Chen Producer Don Edkins Produced by Steps International
