Strange melody! Stranger lyric! A voice that is the antithesis of rock criteria! It shouldn't work at all, but it does! In spades! As it says.."I couldn't quite explain it!", but there's no doubt that once heard, never forgotten! It gets under your skin! It's haunting! Truly a classic!

One of the great pop recordings of the era. Known by engineers for how well it was done. Very unusual song structure, topic and chorus and it works. I've always loved this song. Be thankful for what you have and be empathetic of others is what I get out of this song.

[@bonusbaby801]

@Michael Dollar, OMG!!! I was just having a typing battle with a bunch of knuckleheads that Alanis Morrisette's Jagged Little Pill was probably the best album of the 90's. They kept arguing commercial success & I was TRYING to explain to them it goes beyond commercial success. Like this song, JLP was MASTERFULLY engineered from top to bottom. And IT WAS a commercial success to boot.

[@rtraktsdn1197]

@@bonusbaby801 JLP was also one of the first commercially successful albums to be recorded on the Alesis ADAT machine (which was aimed at the prosumer) I think it contributed a sort of mid-range harshness to the sound of the album which made it stand out even more. I love when massive hit albums are produced using less than perfect equipment and procedures and still come out on top. I think in this case the songs were just so good that it wouldn't have mattered if the album was recorded in a shoebox! :D

[@hankstrumm3309]

I am a very eclectic musician and I've heard a lot of music. But this song touches me in a very special way especially when it moves to the chorus with MMMMM in those minor chords it goes right through me. This piece draws attention away from the chorus with the hummimg and gives the listener pause for reflection on what was just said. Extremely effective rhetorical device. The range and inflections of the vocals make it stand out as unique in memory. And the angelic voices in the end is gorgeous. Uniquely creative; I applaud Crash Test Dummies.

@@onslaughtmma5110 My best friend had an extra toe until middle school when she had it removed. She was always so embarrassed about it. But what I was getting at with the question was because I know one would not be legally allowed to have their toes or fingers webbed if they were trying to become Olympians, so I always wondered if people who were naturally webbed would be allowed. I would have considered myself a professional swimmer if mine were webbed. 😊 But I LOVE swimming.

For some reason, hearing this song always makes me think of Martin Lawrence on SNL. The Crash Test Dummies were the musical guest, but Marty Mar's monologue got him banned from NBC for life! LOLOL.

I asked her who the musical guest was, and she was like "some white people singing about car crashes and shit"! LOL.

Been trying to find this song for a couple of years off and on Its really hard to find when you dont know the band or song name, and had only ever heard it at work alongside heavy machinery that drowned out every single lyric, i didnt even know that the chorus was just "Mmmm "mmmm". So for a couple of years ive been asking people "hey do you know that song from the early 90s with that guy with the deep voice", of ten theyd ask me to hum it but i cant sing/hum in tune (its in tune in my head) so i'd just make this unrecognisable noise and people would say "uhh no never heard that" and theyd back slowly away from me... So anyway, massive relief now ive found it, not entirely sure i even like it - though i dont hate it, but its nice to finally put this mystery to bed

Thornspyre Same here! I heard this song a few years back and the melody was stuck in my head. Unfortunately, I didn't catch the lyrics, I thought I heard "bright lights" (after reading the lyrics it was "bright white") and kept googling those words on and off. I also asked people, tried to hum it for them and even googled things like " top country music songs from the 90s" (not even sure if the genre was country), hoping I would stumble upon it. I'm so glad to chance upon it blaring from the radio today; heard and googled "once there was this girl who" and now I'm here!
