There were a few of us there at the Unplugged taping, and I was very fortunate to be one of them. I think MTV made a big mistake by not doing an "EDA invite" thing for the taping, because I think it would have been an even better show, but that's my opinion. To answer your question: "Yes" the show, like Storytellers, was cut up and rearranged. Pasted below is a shortended version of my review/post of the show from May 8, 1997 ... which I believe was the day after the taping. Be warned it's long, and it was written over two-years ago. ************** Unplugged notes************** There were two taping that night, Maxwell and Jewel. Maxwell was first and 75% of the audience was there for him and left when his performance was over. After the intermission, we returned to an empty theater. Easily less than 300 people left and MTV struggled to fill the empty seats. Since the crowd was so small I expect during the airing the crowd shots you will see will actually be ones they taped of us before the Maxwell show (ah, the power of television). Fashion report: Jewel was dressed down wearing dark brown pants with a lace up fly, and a faded black tank top, with a turquoise neck choker. Jewel's band consisted of a table steel guitar, another guitarist (playing lap steel guitar, guitar and mandolin), sax (Joshua Redman), piano (John Ginty), cello (John Higgins), drums, and stand-up bass (Greg Kohn). Now Joshua is a big name in the sax world, and it was obvious during the first few minutes with the band that they were trying to press his presence, even when the song did not call for it. She opened solo with (Stranger) Enters From the East, which she just called "Enters from the East." She then went on to "Boy Needs a Bike," calling it another new tune -- but we know the truth Jewel :-) A quick of many touch-up's of her make-up in which she uncomfortably allowed her make-up artist work on her. And she asks what would you rather hear "Satellite" or "Don't". Tammy and I, without thought, instantly scream "SATELLITE" and she lays into it. This version was slowed down a bit and I enjoyed it. It's now 11:00pm, 30 minutes after the scheduled end of the show. The band takes the stage. She gives a short story about how this next song was written in Mexico on a surfing trip and how she never thought it would make her so much money, including saying she thinks it is buying Steve a house. YWMFM was nice with the band, the mandolin was awesome for it. But the sax seemed over worked into song (IMHO). She then did Down (so long). Then she put down her guitar and the sax led for Foolish Games. It was harsh (again, IMHO), and I didn't think the sax worked as well as the normal piano entrance. She said to play the song in "single tempo" and opposed to album tempo -- truth be told I couldn't tell a difference. Of course, she began the song by asking people to call up radio stations and request it. Then she fooled Tammy and I by saying how she loves doing this next song, and it started with a bass and sax intro that sounded a lot like the beginning of Summertime. And then suddenly she rips into WWSYS. There was a nice jazzy interlude and the sax really did fit this version of the song. BTW, Don Was was directing Jewel during show and giving her advice during the performance, and he seemed to be very much involved in the whole process. Jewel said she wrote this stupid song at Don's house and threw it away -- but Don asked her to perform it. It was a nice tune called, "Last Dance Rodeo." It started as a solo, then had a sax interlude and ended with the band. For some reason I felt it kind of Tori-ish, but in a Jewel sort of way. That's just my impression though. She stated that her picks were slimly and asked someone if they had any Dunlap picks -- note to the pick people :-) She then sat down to write lyrics for almost ten minutes and literally half the crowd left. (All the more Jewel for me I say!) She then did a laid out, knock down of Under the Water from the Craft with the band. It was awesome! Then Don said that he was having her retake Foolish Games, YWMFM and Last Dance Rodeo. Not so surprising to me they did not have the sax intro or perform on Foolish Games or YWMFM -- appears I was not the only one who didn't care for it. After Last Dance Rodeo retake it was about 12:15am. Don says Jewel would like to do some more songs if it is ok with the crew and the audience. We all scream our approval (hard to make a lot of noise for 100 people though). She does solo, Fragile Flame, Passing Time, Don't, Too Darn Hot, and concludes with Angel Standing By. A very sweet reward for those who stayed. Jewel was in a good mood and laughing, jiggling, etc. as normal. --- Rob ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 3 Sep 1999 23:11:59 +1000 From: "Steven J Neville" Subject: * A CD Idea Jewel - The Freedom Sessions?? Hi all I was just listening to Sarah McLachlan's "The Freedom Sessions" and I thought wouldn't it be cool if Jewel did a similar CD. Sure, Jewel did "Multimedia Spirit", but the the M/Media content was a freebie add-on. "The Freedom Sessions" is a separate release. Throw in some backstage video, alternative takes on 6-7 songs, preferably not released singles, Jewel telling the story behind a few songs and a few other bits and pieces and it's guaranteed to be a big seller. Just a thought. Steve The Angel named Taz ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 3 Sep 1999 15:21:19 +0100 From: mikael.bergerholm@omgroup.com Subject: * Re: jewel-digest V4 #529 Hi everyone! I've answered this one a few times both on and off the list, so I guess most of you have seen this before, but anyhow: >I'm looking for information about "wolf and dolphin" a swedish song on >Jewelstock. and >Does anyone have the lyrics and the English translation to Wolf and >Dolphin? That is such a beautiful song..... Agreed, guess if it was a popular choice when she did that one in concert here last year, and also live on our late-night show, "Sen kväll med Luuk". She spoke some more swedish there too, for example with just a little accent she said: "Vill du äta frukost med mig?" (Would you like to have breakfast with me?) to the host ;-) I've got the whole show on tape if anyone is interested. >I'm looking for the lyrics (in swedish) so if you know where to find them >just tell me please :) I found a translation at http://home6.swipnet.se/~w-62376/t-w&d.htm (Erase back to last / for whole site) when I searched for a transcript, the words are not that easy to make out even if you know the language, the first time I thought she sang some swedish folk song. With some corrected spelling: Varg och delfin Sov gott, vackra delfin Sov gott, jag vita varg Vi har kärlek för varandra För varandra För alltid Sov gott, vackra delfin Sov gott, jag vita varg Morgonen vaknar Då kysser vi Kysser vi för alltid Sov gott, för alltid Wolf and dolphin Sleep well, beautiful dolphin Sleep well, me white wolf We have love for each other For each other Forever Sleep well, beautiful dolphin Sleep well, me white wolf Morning wakes Then we kiss We kiss forever Sleep well, forever Btw Wolf and Dolphin means Woman / Man, as she didn't know the real words when she wrote it for the swede she dated back then.

I'm from Germany, where Jewel is not very famous.If you'd ask, most Germans would not even know her, though YWMFM and FG were in the German charts. Jewel's videos were not often to be seen in MTV Germany and VIVA(the biggest german Music Television). Are there any other Germans on this forum?
