Cure for Pain - Morphine - MP3 instrumental karaoke

Morphine's early 1990s classic "Cure for Pain" established the band's distinctive jazz-flecked grunge style and made a lasting impression on the 1990s alternative landscape. Using a baritone sax, a two-string bass, and a touch of the blues, the Cambridge, Massachusetts group delivered a sound that pushed traditional rock arrangements into new places. Released in 1993, "Cure for Pain" is featured on their magnum opus of the same name and contemplates the idea of substance abuse as the antidote to emotional or physical pain ("Someday there'll be a cure for pain / That's the day I throw my drugs away / When they find a cure for pain.") Over the years, "Cure for Pain" has cemented its status as a highlight of Morphine's discography, whose enduring legacy—built across impactful five studio albums—serves as a testament to the cult band's candid, pioneering spirit and their uncompromising commitment to artistic innovation.
