Little Sister - there's just something about the way that song picks up speed... :) > 2) What's your favorite unreleased Jewel song? hmm... excuse me if this was released at some point, but I have to take "released" as "on PoY". I'm going with Fish Family. Just takes away the blues when I get 'em (and I get 'em). > 3) What's your favorite song of all time(Jewel or not)? Without a doubt Paul McCartney's "Young Boy". it just spells everything out so clearly. and besides, it's my g-f and my song. Coming in second, though, is Paul Simon's "Sounds of Silence", esp when performed with Art Garfunkel (sp?) > > 4) What's your favorite Jewel poem? I'm horrible with names... what do you call the one that starts "Joy. Pure Joy. I am everything that I had hoped to be" (or something along those lines - I'm not much good w/ memory either)? ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 25 May 1998 11:01:04 EDT From: DGlowAngel Subject: Re: ET: Re: a thread? WARNING: I'm just getting over this guy, so it's a little depressing. > 1) What's your favorite Jewel song off of the album? Don't, because it reminds of that guy. > 2) What's your favorite unreleased Jewel song? Buttercup... for the same reason as above ;) Also Fragile Flame, 1,000 Miles Away, If This Is What Love Is, and Sometimes It Be That Way. > 3) What's your favorite song of all time(Jewel or not)? Unforgiven, by Alanis Morrisette. > 4) What's your favorite Jewel poem? I can't answer this because I don't know to many Jewel poems Well, that's it for me. DayGlow Angel "I'm sorry my arms to you were just empty rooms. I'm sorry they never could comfort you." ~Jewel ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 25 May 1998 14:40:07 PDT From: "Jennifer Greeley" Subject: ET: RE: A thread... 1) What's your favorite Jewel song off of the album?

I haven't posted in the longest time... I've been and still am so terribly busy and I just caught up with all the digests... and I just had to answer the questions of the thread! > 1) What's your favorite Jewel song off of the album? Well as much as I like all of the songs and each one has some personal meaning to me... I have to go with Amen... it is just IMO the best piece of singing on the album and also the incredible lyrics that always beat me the down with my own truth... cause I feel the song as a confession of hopelessness, depsperation and the painful realisation of REALITY that is so unpleasant cause we are numb... and how religon holds so many truths yet it is so misleading... I've been in the flow of this song many a day of my life and pieces of me do die everyday as hard as I try to resurrect them or replace with something new... I fail cause we are traped in time, and in this time we search for whatever we would like to see and know and believe... it is so easy to give up but we try not to... and so hard to keep going but we try to... up to one point where those things change... we react... results are different... they depend on conclusion our different minds come up with... and as the ending of the song says... without hope it can all blend together... and once it'd be all same for any of us... all that'd be left to say is "Why bother... I can't do it anyway"... I manage to find hope... and there are rare places... but this song is one of them... cause it tells me ... "it's like that... now can you see what is real and can you feel like surviving..." I'm so full of it aren't I... well I could go on... but I won't cause maybe some of you are actually reading... and wouldn't wanna make you skip all my future posts :))... i do hope some of you found some sense in it... Casue I just feel ... that if you mention a song/poem... why not expressing why... if you know of course... there are some when you can't really tell... it's just feel so right - so you.. or whatever... > 2) What's your favorite unreleased Jewel song? That is such a sensitive question... it changed a few times already, being A Boy Needs A Bike and then Fragile Flame... and now after I got some AngelFood... It's Jessica/Emily and I go with both as ONE not because they have names in the title (I love Nikos as well... hmmmm...) but becasue they are soulmate-songs! There are even three lines in both that are exactly the same... and near the end of Emily she starts singing a bit differently - and it sounds like listening to Jessica for a few lines... and I was confuse for a while - like oh there's that song I love so much again... and it was differnet as I remembered it last time... now I know... I listened again just to make sure... and I cried during Jessica... so there's no doubt anymore... I really let myself get taken away by the songs... I know how it feels to not be able to be around the one that means the world to you... nobody died on me yet... but these two songs take me to my level of pain and saddness... and then a step further... there is nothing worse than having your eyes and hands search for somebody you know they can't find, but your heart and mind won't let go... cause you can feel them... their soul... near you... inside you... if you ever felt somebody is your soulmate and you can't spend time with them cause of any reason at all... you should know how it feels... and these two songs rip it out of me... and feed it to me again and again... and even if it's painful ... it touches me... and since I've never known much real happiness... that is the like the only way... and cause I feel it... I love it... it remainds me I'm still alive... and thus have me survive the above mentioned AMEN! Oh... another thing... I have CWOJK... and on TAPE 3 there's Jessica... and so far that's only version of it I have... people are constatly talking during it... it is so annoying... yet a few minutes ago... I don't thing I heard a single noise... just the words from Jewel's mouth sounding so sharp in my heart... > 3) What's your favorite song of all time(Jewel or not)? I love thousands of songs... hundreds that are so special... dozens that I could call my hymns or something... and one that is above all... With Or Without You by U2 I'll be brief... this song has probably all the emotions I've known... like.. love,hate,despare,anger,joy,hope, etc.... it has all and than the opposite of each... it depends how you look on each line in the song, and the tone of Bono's voice and music... To me it represents the greatest fear that is in reality and I could listen to it all day long without hating it... which is the only song that can afford that! > 4) What's your favorite Jewel poem? I won't asnwer this cause I only read whats inside POY... and my book is supposed to be on the way... so I'll answer in the future... but I can answer this bonus question... > 5) What's your favorite poem of all time (Jewel or not)? That would have to be Annabel Lee by E.A.Poe The only girl I ever loved gave me a piece of paper with this poem written on it as goodbye... and it was the last I've seen her to this day. Needles to say those who know the poem know why that is so special to me... however she's not dead... she's just burried deep inside my heart... and maybe one day (that HOPE) she will grow out of my heart... out of my love... but for now... i'll carry her soul around entwined with mine... as a constant reminder...! OK... that's enough from me... next time... I'll just post some poems... bye P.S. I also have to say that I enjoy reading your work... cause everbody that posted their work had at least one poem that in one way or another got through to me... but most of all I enjoyed Naomi's poems... IMO they have the most feeling in them (with few exceptions)... I will forget to mention somebody... but I don't have time to go through all the digest again... so I'll just type those that are currently in my head... like of course Sam(the busy poet)'s poem The Empty Chatters (I don't agree completely with the contents... but it has a good point) and somebody signed as holly and her poem that she worte for the school talent show... Those who I forgot to mention and had wanted to, I will in my next posts after I reread all the digests... that will be when I get a break from school! - --- Dr. RomeAntic, an angel with the worst stroke of luck "Can you turn me off Just a second, please Turn me into something Faceless, weightless, mindless, homeless, vacuum state of peace On and on and on and on and on and on and on and on I believe in me" K's Choice/Believe/Cocoon Crash Dr. RomeAntic's Cyber Image @ http://www.geocities.com/Paris/Metro/2009 - --------------F622818CFD2AF354755C8185 Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi ya angels!
