Lucy was the follow-up to Candlebox's 1993 self-titled debut album. "Simple Lessons" received considerable airplay, but this album didn't fare as well as their first. A video was made for "Understanding" directed by filmmaker Gus Van Sant, featuring the band in water, as well as Kevin Martin singing the lyrics underwater. Early versions of "Understanding (Racially Motivated)" and "Bothered" were performed live in concert during their 1994 tour.

Non-album songs that were recorded for the studio sessions are "Featherweight" (b-side to the Simple Lessons single) and "Steel and Glass" (a John Lennon cover song releasted on the Lennon tribute album Working Class Hero).
