I've been hanging around my student center before class and was looking at the Rolling Stone website and came upon this article about Jewel. Not sure if it was previously posted or not so if so, oops, sorry I missed that! BUT, especially her last line in the article?? THAT is one of the reasons that I love her. Because she does her music because she loves to write and sing music. Not to make a quick-fix financial top selling hit. If that comes, fabulous, but that isn't her goal and that makes her music more personal to her and more touching, to me at least, knowing that she's not about winning some race in the industry to be top. (in my mind, she already is up there!) ARTICLE: For the first time in her career, Jewel actually enjoyed a recording session -- that of This Way, her first album of all-new material in three years. "Doing records has always been hard for me," she says. "I could never figure out how to sing emotionally in the studio." To capture some grit on This Way, Jewel grabbed the reins herself, co-producing the record in Nashville with Faith Hill producer Dan Huff. Her confidence is evident: The album is an assured collection of folky pop songs, atmospheric numbers and tracks like "Love Me Just Leave Me Alone," a Melissa Etheridge-style rocker. "It was fun to scream a bit," she says. Out November 13th, This Way comes on the heels of a two-year break, during which Jewel says she contemplated never making another record. "In 1999, things had gotten too big," she says. "I was burned out." She spent time at the Texas ranch of boyfriend, rodeo champion Ty Murray, planning her next move. "Neil Young told me never to rely on hit records," she says. "It's a commitment I had to make. I have no interest in applying for the homecoming queen title every year.

I really disagree with this. I believe it is an honor to sing the Nat'l Anthem at something like the World Series or the Super Bowl, especially now. But how you dress doesn't necessarily make it mean any less. Also, she wore an American flag shirt. That says "Patriotism" to me. And Steven Tyler (Aerosmith) sang the Nat'l Anthem at the Indianapolis 500. Although I didn't see what he wore, I highly doubt it was a tuxedo... It's America. You are allowed to wear what you want when you want to. That's why we are a great country. Christy the Tattoed angel 8)~~~* "However she was singing the National Anthem, and it was a great honor for her, I thought that she could have dressed more appropriately. The skin tight cut-off shirt and messy rock star hair would have been great if she were just singing at a concert-- but she was honoring our nation, it seemed like something britney or aguilera would do, not Jewel. She looked fine, I just didn't think she was being respectful. Just my humble opinion though... - - -- Chrissy" ===== "Lend your voices only to sounds of freedom." -- Jewel Make a great connection at Yahoo!

I heard it a lot when I was on vacation in FL. Anyway, that would have made me 12 or so. I saw Jewel for the first time on the Spirit Tour in Boston, Ma. She was amazingly good. I love "Standing Still." I taped it off the radio and have been listening to it a lot. I can't wait till "This Way" comes out. Yay!

They gave her 3.5/5, which is a very solid rating for Rolling Stone (Spirit got 3 stars). And the review itself is extremely positive, and in my opinion hits it on the head in terms of the album. I agree with every single thing the guy said about the record. Anyway, here's the review: As she so repeatedly displays on her new album, This Way, Jewel loves the coffeehouse folk-music mode of sitting around singing 'bout the state of the world, the way Tori Amos loves Bart"k and Janet Jackson loves dance. "They say that you're only half-alive/Till you give extra whitening a try," Jewel avers in a reference to advertising and toothpaste on "Jesus Loves You," a surging little rock tune that's all loopy commentary and sweet groove. But out of that often cute and precious folky-poetic tradition, Jewel has delivered recordings - "Foolish Games" from her 1995 debut, Pieces of You, "Hands" and "Barcelona" from 1998's Spirit - that create their own luscious systems of personal observation, worry and hope. The apparent simplicity of folk presents wondrously complex and sexy possibilities for Jewel. She's one of the most richly idiomatic female pop singers of her generation, combining the blazing timbral containment of Karen Carpenter with the rootsy looseness of Bonnie Raitt. With This Way, Jewel continues on - elegant, earthy, engaged. Unlike Spirit, where producer Patrick Leonard draped her essential folkiness in stylish L.A. keyboard auras, This Way finds Jewel in Nashville, working with producer-guitarist Dann Huff. The music has no particular Nashville characteristic except one: an unwavering concentration on melody and arrangements. Huff adds punch and color - Southern accents and ranging Western backdrops - to the music. Yet the arrangements of songs such as "Standing Still" and "This Way," both of which boast tunes a nation could sing, or the stark romantic ballad "Break Me," are all about Jewel - her voice, her thoughts, her stories. She truly breaks out twice. On "I Won't Walk Away," Jewel and Huff travel to a Continental soundscape of moody strings and tinkling pianos. "Sometimes," she sings, "the world don't make sense," amid a poignant, magisterially sensible arrangement. But on "Love Me, Just Leave Me Alone," all her Seventies rock-chick leanings take flight as Huff and his band pull a Black Crowes. It's there, among "wolf bite" mothers and loser "turtleneck" guys, that she delivers quite a line indeed: "I tried," she sings, "to be unlovable." Jewel has little talent for that. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 30 Oct 2001 21:33:20 -0500 From: shawn e williams Subject: [EDA] AOL chat hi guys! i just wanted to know if anyone knows if non-aol users will be allowed to be in the Jewel chat? love ya, shawney the hippie angel NOVEMER 13TH NEW JEWEL CD CALLED "THIS WAY" COMES OUT!
