Looking At The World From The Bottom Of A Well (Meta)

Meta Prompt
The answer to the meta can be seen from the bottom of a well
I had never heard of Mike Doughty or the band he used to front, Soul Coughing. But when Paste Magazine included a song called "Looking At The World From The Bottom Of A Well" on one of their monthly sample CDs, I was hooked. Turns out Mike had just released the first single from his latest solo album "Haughty Melodic" (which, for us cryptic crossworders, is an anagram of the artist's fuller name, Michael Doughty.) It's a catchy little tune, quite simple in its chord structure, but the end result is extremely memorable. So much so that, nearly 20 years later, this song has become the inspiration for a "week 1" meta. The answer to the meta can be seen from the bottom of a well.
