Well, the show was good. If anyone missed, I would recommend keeping a watch out for reruns. It was really informative and funny and stuff. (Sorry for the lack of creative vocabulary, but I am really exhausted). Anyways, I was suprised that they did a lot of stuff on Jewel. Well, that came out wrong. I mean, I would think they would have done more on people like Mick Jaggar and people that have been around longer. But they did more on Jewel than on most artists. And they did an equal amount for Jewel and Madonna. Cool, huh? - -Rebecca ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 28 Feb 1998 21:28:04 PST From: "Stephanie Ianson" Subject: NJC: Any EDA's like.....

Since we are all waiting for the release of FCS, I thought it would be interesting to see if I could find other artists than the California ones who are in the tradition of Jewel, and I think I found one. Her name is Natalie Imbruglia. Her cd has been out for a couple of months in Britain and will be released here within a few weeks. She is influenced by Joni Mitchell and Rickie Lee Jones. Her first single is called "Torn," it is her debut. She has a real folk/rock sound to her, much like our Jewel. Just thought I would share this little tidbit with the list. Ben - The Rocky Mountain Angel ADDED NOTE FROM THE LIST MODERATOR: Natalie Imbruglia will be the musical guest on next weeks' Saturday Night Live, March 7th11:30pm ET on NBC ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 1 Mar 1998 00:43:56 -0500 From: casper31@juno.com (Adina F) Subject: Borders- interpretation i was looking on the borders books website and they had an article on the grammys at: http://www.salon1999.com/music/sharps/ In the article it said this: The Grammy process, remember, has traditionally been so narcissistic, and the awards so vapid, that it wouldn't have been beyond the pale for folks like Paula Cole, Sarah McLachlan, and Shawn Colvin to have gotten their nominations for appearance's sake alone, only to be trod into the mud for the sake of someone like Jewel. Does anyone know what the author is trying to say about jewel? I am not trying to make a big deal about it but i assm just curious. Here is the full article for anyone who wants it BY GAVIN McNETT | I have to admit: The Grammys didn't go the way I'd hoped this year. After having girded myself for war, and after having snickered to myself for days over the fine show I was going to make of things when the time came to start lopping heads, this year's ceremony turned out to be fairly dignified and just. Most of the people, for instance, who I thought deserved an award actually got one, while most of the deadwood got pitched aside -- which isn't the way it's supposed to happen at all. The Grammy process, remember, has traditionally been so narcissistic, and the awards so vapid, that it wouldn't have been beyond the pale for folks like Paula Cole, Sarah McLachlan, and Shawn Colvin to have gotten their nominations for appearance's sake alone, only to be trod into the mud for the sake of someone like Jewel. Tool (whom I hate, but that's a separate issue) might've been jilted for the metal performance award for some half-calcified act like, say, Mötley Crüe. Jethro Tull took that award a few years ago, as many will recall -- the hooting hasn't yet died down over that one. The nominations this year were better than that, but not very. Warning signs were rife, with the pernicious baldie R. Kelley contending for both record and song of the year; the ossified Paul McCartney being up for album of the year; Aerosmith licking their distended chops over male rock duo or vocal ... It just went on. You can understand why a boy would be stalking around the house for days, tracing evil glyphs in the air with his pen. I'm as small a person as anyone; I live for my little yawps of righteous indignance. But with Colvin having snagged the record of the year award (for "Sunny Came Home"), the only complaints one could have are purely technical. Cole's "Where Have all the Cowboys Gone," my pick for record of the year - -- although I'd hesitate to defend that on rational grounds -- garnered her artist of the year instead, over Fiona Apple, Erykah Badu, Puff Daddy and Hanson. Colvin also won song of the year over Diane Warren's atrocious "How Do I Live" and R. Kelley's "I Believe I Can Fly," each of which would've had the judges mewling in years past. And there it lies, and so much for having me burst in shrieking upon the whole affair. But as far as I'm concerned, the big winners in God's ledger were -- in order -- Aretha Franklin and the two gate crashers who bum-rushed the show. Aretha, who rules hell, was on the premises to be the foil for Dan Ayckroyd's "Blues Brothers 2000" act. The first Blues Brothers soul-revival was ignominious enough -- showing that it required the intervention of a TV comedy team to resuscitate the careers of Aretha, Ray Charles and (for heaven's sake, people) Cab Calloway. But this time, 18 whole years later, Aretha wasn't just propping up Belushi and blues-vampire Ayckroyd (he hosts the sanguophagic "House of Blues" radio show), but also John Goodman and a cute kid. Aaargh! But Fate was to step in and place a crown on Aretha's head. Luciano Pavarotti called in truant and she ... just sort of ... stepped in and did his whole act impromptu, without rehearsal -- singing in Italian and English, with a full orchestra. You go, girl! Coming in at second place, Ol' Dirty Bastard from Wu-Tang Clan grabbed the stage during the song of the year award, reeling out a line about how Wu-Tang should've won the award. "Wu-Tang is for the children!" he cried, "Wu-Tang is the best!" Well, nuh-uh. But damned if I don't all of a sudden like them, when I used to make a career out of ignoring their whole schtick. Hey! Punk rock! (Although it doesn't beat Jarvis Cocker mooning the audience during Michael Jackson's cheapening of the Brit Awards a few years ago. If ODB had shined his butt around the hall during the overblown, Gospel-chorus staging of "I Believe I Can Fly," then we might have something to talk about.) But then again, gosh: Hip-hop never, never, never slaps the corporate daddy that pays its Visa bills. That's why I've always been so suspicious about its, er, language of transgression. Talking about popping caps in some nigga's ass doesn't (correct me if I'm wrong) exactly help to address the problem of black America's being ground under the heel of consumer capitalism. I was really pushing for Curtis Mayfield for best male R&B performance, which shows you how bereft of contemporary heroes I've become. And by now, you've probably heard that some white git launched himself onto the stage during Bob Dylan's performance (thereby grabbing the bronze). What he was about isn't clear -- he was just some shirtless dancing dude with "Soy Bomb" written across his bare chest. Dylan looked briefly more impatient than usual, and went on with his business. Guards hustled the interloper off to whatever dungeon Grammy-interlopers are hustled off to. But I could see the guy with his friends the next day, turning up triumphant at some throbbing downtown nightbox and stripping off his shirt. "There's that GUY!" people would exclaim, "that SOY BOMB guy!" "Soy Bomb" must've been some petty private joke, and he'd catapulted it onto the world stage. So what? So nothing. It was something real where real things don't often intrude. I would've written something else on my chest, and I probably wouldn't have danced so well. But I would've done it too -- if I were there and had the guts and the silly, woo-hoo attitude that the Soy dude had. Somebody has to be out there with their shirt off, whooping up a big nothing. I owe you a drink, ya silly boob. Goofs like you keep shirkers like me off the hook.

On a recent post I saw like 1500 or something. That seems too high. Someone help :) Love Always, *~Kristen~* {{ThE aNgEl StAnDiNg By}} ADDED NOTE FROM THE LIST MODERATOR: The regularly read Jewel lists consist of the loose mail version (Jewel) and Jewel-digest. Presently the loose mail version has 723 subscribers, and the digest version has 916, for a total of 1639. (In November the two totaled over 1800) This does not mean however, that 1639 actual people subscribe, as I know that many folks subscribe to both versions and/or subscribe two email addresses. My educated guess would put the number of individual email addresses subscribed to the two at about 1250 or so. (I'll figure it out later) There is also a news-only version of the Jewel lists, where only news-like posts from the loose mail version get posted. This amounts to maybe 2 or 3 posts a day on this version, of which presently 1338 people subscribe to. So, for the three versions, there are presently 2977 subscribers. - Mike :-) ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 1 Mar 1998 11:45:54 EST From: LOVE1618 Subject: Re: Before they were Rock Stars....

I have two questions. It seems to me that Jewel rerecording the radio edit versions of her three singles on her single releases. "You Were Meant For Me" is pretty obvious... Yet, is the radio edit for "Who Will Save Your Soul" different in any way? I also went out and bought the Batman soundtrack with Foolish Games on it the same day I bought the Foolish Games single.... now.. these two songs sound identical... are they they same? It's pretty cool that these singles were rerecorded instead of snipping bits and pieces out of the original... ::sigh:: I want to see her in concert ;( Jason Keis ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 1 Mar 1998 10:53:51 EST From: TJ talken Subject: Book about movie that jewel is in Alright, ladies and gentlemen, this is the last call from this supplier (me) for purchasing the book Woe to Live On, from which the Movie that Jewel will start working on March 1st is based.

T'is me, Amy and I'm sure you all missed me since my brother did know why we were getting this list and unsubscribed me (ahem). But I resubscribed and now I'm back, so you can all stop crying :o)~ About the Grammy's, I was so happy to see Jewel presenting an award. EVen if I only got to see her and listen to her beautiful voice for about 20 seconds in total. I think she looked great. And thank you for telling me that they will be playing the rerun of the letterman show where she was on, I didn't see her on it and I relly want to! Well It finally happened. I finally decided to make it official and really get down to work oon my Jewel page. It's going to be a while still, a long long long while. But if anyone has any pics that I can use of Jewel or Angels or stuff like that I would really appreciate it. Well that's all for now I guess. Love you guys! *huggles and snuggles to everyone* Have a good day!
