The story behind the song

"Remedy," from The Black Crowes' 1992 album The Southern Harmony and Musical Companion, is a song about the spirit of freedom. Lead vocalist Chris Robinson wrote it as a commentary on the war on drugs, which he felt was a "silly" endeavor. The song asks, "why can't you sit still?" and whether you will "let it glide," evoking a sense of letting go and finding release. It plays like an anthem for shaking off constraints and embracing a more unburdened way of being.
