MUSIC THAT MATTERS – “Lyric of the Day”

(Music Cut #1)

Released on this day in 1993…

Cracker went “Low”…

as their career went in the opposite direction.

(Music Cut #2)

The lyrics had people asking if it was about drugs

Lead singer, David Lowery, pushed back on that idea

But then…

the video didn’t exactly clear things up.

(Music Cut #3)

Instead, it put Lowery in a boxing ring with Sandra Bernhard…

where she basically beats him up.

Apparently it was meant to show an inner conflict.

But it also gave ’90s MTV one of its stranger celebrity cameos.

But just one rose, it knows your name.” – Cracker
