This saying is used in a situation where someone is not satisfied with what they have, but envies what someone else has in a similar situation. An example would be someone who has a blue car deciding that his friend's green car is better, even though both are the same make and model. The phrase also usually means that once the person gets what they think they want, they are not satisfied with that, either.
In the rare cases the one is the other, the other one is always another other. It's mother's other and it's brother always form the other other, assuming that this other other has another.
