The answer was something to the effect of, an albulm needs to maintain a mood. I was thinking that one way to include her wide variety of songs would be to release a double CD. One CD could include the more folky/country songs, and the other could be more rock oriented. In another part of her answer, she said she didn't consider herself a great recording artist, that she was better at live performance. I know that I would love a live album. I know that that is part of what angelfood is, but if this type of album was released, others could re-live the joy of a live performance. Okay, I promise, no more posts today - -Kerri the angel who rambles (i'm trying out names) my homepage: http://www.Angelfire.com/ny3/dancingangel "But don't wander too far, My one constant star, Darkness exists, except where you are, My feet are filled with wandering, They follow your own, 'Cause everywhere you are feels like home." -Jewel, Last Dance Rodeo ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 7 Nov 1999 12:43:44 EST From: TFace151@aol.com Subject: * WSIT Video I MISSED TRL AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Does anyone know if it will be on again or if the video is on the web.

First of all I'm writing to let you guys know that I think this idea about us sending Jewel some cash and a card is WONDERFUL..and I am all for it..I just need the info :) Anyways now for my good news...WE FOUND A DONOR FOR ROMAN!! :) They did the transplant over last week...he's still at this point in the hospital because his potasssium level is increasing which can lead to a heart attack. So we just need to keep praying. I want to again thank ALL OF YOU who helped and ALL OF YOU who let me know they were praying for him. I truly believe it helped. Just out of curiosity ..were any of you there yesterday at the Hilton? Even though they found a donor for Roman their are still tons of little kids just like him that need transplants so thats what we were doing yesterday there. Anyways ok I am done :) Thanks again for all your help.

First off I GIVE MY FULL 230 PERCENT TO THIS IDEA FOR JEWEL!!!!! Second- Has Jewel ever been on Fanatic on Mtv and if so was that person an EDA!! Third- Does anybody have the storytellers for her.

There's been a lot of talk on the list of what we can do for Jewel this Christmas. The main thing was to donate to HGH or Clearwater. I personally think it would be better to make a donation to Clearwater. Those third world countries have terrible, germ infested water. People are dieing because of the water. The don't have medications to help this, and improving their water would improve their lives. Therefore, i think EDA's should send Christmas or Thank You cards to Jewel with at least $5. That may not seem like a lot of money, but when a lot of people do it, it adds up. Then, if or when you send a card, you'd e-mail me with you named and location, and that would be put in a giant card for Jewel. If you people want to do this, please e-mail me. We are Everyday Angels, and this is a great way to show it!

Well, you know when you were in school and they used to give you all of those pamphlet with things that you could sell to your family, neighbors, etc? Like tins with cookies, candles, candy, and such. What if HGH or Clearwater made something like that, that the EDA's could sell things to benefit the program. As I read this, I don't know if I am making myself completely clear. Hopefully you are getting what I am talking about. In other words, HGH gives the EDA's a catalog and order forms, we sell things with the order forms, send the order forms to HGH, HGH gets money, people get items, and EDA's had a chance to help the world. This would be especially good for people that are afraid to give there money and to those who can't afford to send money. I don't know if this is able to be done or not but I just thought you guys could toss it around and see what you think.

I haven't posted in forever! I've been meaning to but I haven't really found anything worth posting. Now this donation idea has shown up and I'm all for it. I'm sure I can give away my 5 bucks and some of my crazy-non-EDA friends would help me out by giving some of their money to me *giggles* for this! It seems somethings must happen after an Idea, besides just talk. We need a list of everyone who is wanting to be involved in this donation. We need a person/team to send money to. (maybe the same place where the card is?) We need an address to send the money to. We need a date for the cut off We need a person/team to make the card We need to become organized! I'll try and help out as much as I can, Cara The Coughing Angel If you guys want I can get the list together of everyone who is wanting to be involved. (email address and such) I dunno I just don't want this Idea to turn out to be an unorganized deal! i'm sure it'll work out!someone needs to take charge though ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 07 Nov 1999 22:26:06 GMT From: "Jenna Law" Subject: * Jewel's boyfriend?

Hiya, I rarely ever post, but I saw a great opportunity to have an idea here, so please bear with me...I don't think every day. What if, instead of donating $5 once, we each donated about $10 a month...think about it. We would probably need someone or a team to decide what to do with it, kinda like a CEO would do...I guess that would be Jewel. Anyways, ya'll think about it, and let Alan or Mike or somebody know if you like the idea.

It doesn't necessarily have to be candy or food, but maybe even Jewel merchandise or something. It wold be a good way for us as EDA's to help our the Clearwater project and be a helping hand. After all, there are a lot of Eda's as far as I'm concerned and it would be a good way to reach out and help Jewel out with the project. I think it's a great idea. It's not hard either. Well, I think we have an idea here..Hope you all agree!

The 25-year-old has just made her cinema debut playing a Missouri farm girl in director Ang Lee's new American Civil War drama Ride With The Devil. Jewel admits that the prospect of acting made her scared but decided to do it because, she says, "personally I feel if I'm not on the edge of failure, I'm not really being sufficiently challenged". In America, since the release of her debut album Pieces of You in 1995, Jewel has been anything but a failure. Multimedia pop phenomenon She is a huge multimedia pop phenomenon. Her first album sold 10 million copies. A second album Spirit has also been a major success, as has Jewel's book of poetry, A Night Without Armour, which is packed with her ruminations on teenage angst. Jewel has triumphed in the marketplace by conveying optimism and sensitivity. She has the image of being a politically correct entertainer who writes folk songs and verse that reflects a social conscience. In her youth she spent time living on a remote Alaska farm and she says her background was a definite asset in preparing for her role as a war widow in Ang Lee's film. She says the director cast her partly because of her upbringing on the land. "I was raised with all men, I was raised do physical labour working with animals, ploughing the earth," she says. Down-to-earth character Jewel's farm-bound character, Sue Lee Shelley, has relationships with two men in Ride With The Devil, but it is not romance that defines her character, it's more her inner development. She regards Sue Lee as a down-to-earth woman trying to bring up a child while the men in her community are running around killing one another. As a screen novice Jewel says she relied heavily on Ang Lee: "My acting experience was based on how Ang taught me, and it was invaluable." Although Jewel routinely receives heaps of praise in the press, and from her fans - much of it commenting on her good looks - she told me she was not comfortable watching herself on film for the very first time. "I am not one of those people who like seeing myself on camera, so for me it was really horrifying." Pop stars can make fools of themselves when they try to move into cinema, but Jewel seems to have coped competently with the role. But it's unlikely that cinema will bring Jewel anything like the success she's enjoyed as a singer. Her appearances provide some of the brighter moments in a film that I found packed with big ideas but surprisingly dull. Having got a taste of acting, Jewel says she definitely wants to repeat the experience: "It's a tremendous learning opportunity for me." And she liked the shared responsibility of making a movie. "Not all the pressure is on me. It's is not my career, it is not my music, it is not my writing. It's me working on a team, and that's a great feeling, it's a wonderful feeling." Naive charm Although Jewel's singing reveals a naive charm, she is far more confident and shrewd than might be imagined. Her screen acting - while it won't win her an Oscar - will definitely help broaden her appeal, along with her music and poetry, as an accessible all-round entertainment star. In America she has just released an album of sentimental Christmas songs which coincides with her film debut. As her career develops Jewel is beginning to resemble a mainstream multimedia corporation, channelling her marketable New Age talents into as many different directions as she can. Ride With The Devil is showing now in the UK. - ------------------- Nosh - -- http://www.jfk.dial.pipex.com Live Jewel recordings available on my site. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 7 Nov 1999 15:27:54 -0800 (PST) From: "Joe P.
