“When you’re really good, they call you a ‘crackerjack‘ . . . when you’re doing your best, giving your all,” sings Marty Brown in his new single, “CrackerJack.” With the new song, the 1990s country singing star continues on this new stage of his career after his appearances on America’s Got Talent.
For those who are most familiar with Cracker Jack as candied popcorn bought at baseball games, the term “crackerjack,” means “of excellent quality,” just as Brown defines it in his song. The word probably comes from the combination of “crack,” meaning “first-class,” with “jack,” meaning a “man.” The baseball confection allegedly earned its name when someone tasted it and said, “That’s a crackerjack!” Marty Brown’s song, though, is about the term “crackerjack,” not the popcorn snack, but his song does begin with a baseball reference.

Marty Brown’s “CrackerJack” follows the release of the video for his previous single, “Whatever Makes You Smile.” With the new singles, more people are learning what we already knew: Marty Brown is a crackerjack.
The new song, which was originally designated for a 2002 comeback album that was never officially released, is available to buy online on iTunes and through Amazon.
