"The Other Two" can also refer to an Edith Wharton book.

The dance act The Other Two are Stephen Morris and Gillian Gilbert of New Order. The band name refers to the fact that the other New Order members, Bernard Sumner and Peter Hook, had already released solo records when the first The Other Two record, the single "Tasty Fish," came out 1991 and peaked at 41 in the UK Singles Chart.

The Other Two's albums are The Other Two & You (1993), on which Gilbert handled the vocals, and Superhighways (1999), which also featured guest vocalist Melanie Williams from the band Sub Sub on some tracks (Superhighways, You Can Fly, One Last Kiss).

The Other Two have been involved in motion picture scoring; they created a theme song for the TV series Common As Muck, America's Most Wanted. Other soundtrack work includes Cold Feet, Making Out and series two of Cracker. The Other Two created music for the UK TV programme Reportage, but this was credited as New Order.
