Why would you want to have it totally I disagree. In some cases, the voice can be used in the same manner as an instrument (it really is an instrument in fact). It can be used to create textures, melodies, rhythms, etc. Scat music works kinda like that. The words sound like nonsense, but when the person doing it is gifted, it can sound absolutely amazing. Another example is the song "Velvet" by the Toadies (it's not likely you've heard this song as they are a hard rock band). It's hard to make any sense of all the screaming, chanting and yelling, but the sound works well and blends nicely in with the music. >drowned out by loud music. And also lyrics are like the whole point to >the song. It is what the artist is trying to tell you. If you can't >understand what the person is saying, then what is the point of the song?

Jewel's music contains a HUGE country influence. Though POY has only a couple of country tunes, much of her un-released material (especially that which she co-wrote with Steve Poltz) is country. I know I've posted about this before but it seems like there are new people joining everyday so a lot of the same threads get re-instated. Anyways, a blow to country is a blow to Jewel!

I have some questions that I've been wondering about for some while now. Perhaps you list members can help me find answers: 1. Does Jewel still own her blue van or did she sell it, to who? 2. What's the second line of WWSYS? It sounds like "She says hope, my cause from behind those call, brick wall says, 'come here boy, they're ain't nothin for free.'" That's my interpretation of it. What is she saying? 3. In WWSYS Jewel's 1st. chorus says, "Who will save your soul when it comes to the flowers." But in the next two choruses it sounds like she is saying, "...when it come to the babies or vabies" What is she saying? 4. At the end of WWSYS, what is she saying? It sounds like just sounds, sometimes I can hear actual words like "you try to save 'em". Is this called dowop? What is she saying? 5. Jewel has changed the picking pattern on that song. She adds a strum in with the picking. Can some one tell me what it is? Is it pick, strum, pick, strum? You can see this on Hard Rock Live and SNL appearances. What's the pattern? 6. How does one get a song copy written? Thanks for your help!

What could be cleaner than bones stripped bare? The skeleton was in the closet and mom was in the kitchen. She hummed and stirred the porridge with a wooden spoon. What could be safer than a skeleton in the closet? All but forgotten behind the door. What could be tamer, than a skull with empty sockets? What less accusing, than a skull without a tongue? What could be safer than a skeleton in a closet, for one whose secret pocket holds the key? From time to time that winter she unlocked the door When nothing but the moon peeked in her window And every time the bones looked whiter than the time before But afterwards, she always locked the door As the clock ticked away and the calendar months shriveled she visited less often her prisoner in the closet though sometimes she fingered lovingly, the key One day looking up from the garment she was patching she saw, surprised, that winter had ended the world was a lamb, frisking in a green meadow and a tree was opening shiny leaves like a girl's mouth, for kisses That night upon her narrow bed she dreamed of openings those of petals, virginis, envelopes containing lovers letters, tombs, cocoons, windows, doors, wombs and children's round luminous eyes floating on thin stalks in darkness over and around the narrow bed where she was lying Suddenly, the dream shattered the closet door was opening how could it be, a locked door the key hidden in her secret pocket But the senses took what the mind rejected she could feel it's breath, hear breathing It's breathing? His? Some passing stranger? God present? The devil, perhaps? Whomever or whatever full length she felt a weight upon her hands burned up the gown of frost covering her from neck to ankle then reached the flesh. then something that was not the flesh not even the bright moon could classify nor she could name. but she felt it like her heart as it ascended on strong and steady wings the steep abyss where she was falling and JUBILATE sang a voice, and it was hers When morning came she woke to see the imprint of a head beside hers, on the pillow and all the windows and the doors except the skeletons were open to a silence deeper than the silence of the snow that once had wound cold arms around her Trembling, she rose and in her nakedness and terror tried to open that closed door but it was locked and when she somehow found the strength to find the key where it had lain a lifetime in her secret pocket, and the strength to put the key where it belonged The door swung wide open and hanging staring at her from within the closet nothing And JUBILATE sang the sun through all the windows And JUBILATE sang the bird outside her door And JUBILATE sang the wound between her thighs ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 20 Jun 1997 17:48:38 -0400 (EDT) From: GraywolfLA@aol.com Subject: NJC; EDAC: The Livingroom Tour -- Bart Mendoza's real e-dress For those of you who are trying to email Bart to schedule a "Livingroom Tour" date (so far: Fish, Mr. BB, Greg Dunn, Lizzy McTraveler, and I know I'm forgettting one or two): Bart's REAL e-address is: lisaconw@pacbell.net Thanks!!!

I think Sean misrepresented Dylan's appearance at Live Aid. Sean indicated Dylan said that people should help American farmers FIRST (my emphasis) before worrying about starvation in Africa. My recollection is quite different. When he was on stage, Dylan described the plight of U.S. farmers and said something very much like 'Too bad we can't keep a little of the money (referring to the money being raised through the fundraising efforts of the LiveAid concerts) for the farmers ALSO.' (again, my emphasis) And thus FarmAid was born. But Dylan was very supportive of raising money for the relief of the African famine as a bigger prority. Sean pointed to Dylan's actions that day as a courageous example of what Dylan is all about. If you don't mind, I'd like to cite what I think is an even better example. When Dylan was presented with his lifetime achievement award at the Grammies (where he wasn't wearing anything see-through, thank goodness...), it was the same week that the U.S. led invasion of Iraq was launched (Operation Desert Storm?). Nearly all the performers and presenters made mention of their concern for the safety of the American soldiers who were fighting in the war. However, only Dylan was aware and courageous enough to condemn the American military industrial complex that had made untold millions of dollars by selling arms to Iraq...arms that were now going to be used against young American soldiers. Dylan sang 'Masters of War', a song that was sadly enough even more true that night than when he wrote it nearly thirty years earlier. For me, it was one of the absolutely greatest moments in the history of popular music....yet hardly anyone noticed it.... Anyway, on that note, have a great weekend eveyone, especially all you Rockfesters.

Lennon, yes. Harrison, yes. Even Ringo, yes. And, believe it or not, I even like Yoko's albums, especially the last one with Sean. But as far as I'm concerned McCartney's sweetness was only effective as a counterpoint to Lennon's edginess. On it's own, to me, it seems bland and insipid. But, to each his own. Alot of people like Barry Manalow. I'm open to hearing it though. Maybe he's improved with age.

I have no idea about her van 2. The second line is (and this confused me for a long time until I looked at the words) "She says 'Hold my calls' from behind those cold brick walls, says, c'mere boy, there ain't nothing for free." Also did you notice that in some versions she sings "Another burger, another hot dog, some fries, another wish in the well, hope your health don't go to hell, well..." - not in the album version, though. 3. I think she says "when it comes to the babies" at least it sounds like that to me, but I could be wrong 4. What she does at the end, I believe, is called scat, which I guess is similar to dowop, but I'm not totally sure 5. I think she's changed the picking pattern (fingerpicking, of course) because she's gotten better at the guitar. She's complicated it to sound better. She used to always say that her hands needed to catch up to her mind, and maybe they are. 6. I'm not sure what you mean, so I don't know how to get a song copy written. Do you mean copywright? Or a copy of a song? Oh, well, I hope I could help. I'm sorry that I couldn't answer all your questions, but, oh, well, sometimes it be that way. sarah ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 20 Jun 1997 19:48:25 -0400 (EDT) From: EDAngel1@aol.com Subject: "Jewel Rocks The Paradise" OFFER/ Waiting list EDAs Fellow EDAs, Hello there my angels! I hope that subject line caught your attention! :) I am now offering to dub "Jewel Rocks the Paradise" for any EDA who wants it! No, this is NOT a joke, this is a REAL offer. For those who participated in the last tape trade this one will basically be run the same way with a few minor changes. For all who are interested please email me back with the subject heading "INSTRUCTIONS". I also wanted to list those EDAs who are still on my waiting list for the last tape I offered: Kelly (not the iamkelly one :) ) Britton (Jewelno1fn) Mandy (skater/bartender/surfer one) George and Kraut5 ( I don't know your name) Can these EDAs please send their check as soon as possible so that I can wrap that trade up? Thanks. If you have "confirmed" but are not on the list above that is becuase you have confirmed over a month ago and I have yet to receive anything from you so I am assuming that you have changed your mind.....If any of the five above EDAs want "out" of the last deal just email me telling me so that I can reorganize things a little. :) I would also like to thank all the EDAs who contributed to the JPK trust on the last tape trade :) I didn't think that that many of you would donate. You guys make me proud to be an EDA :) Take care my angels and never hesitate to ask me for help :) Mary the wannabe angel :) "In the end only kindness matters" ~Jewel ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 20 Jun 1997 20:18:56 -0400 From: Mike Connell Subject: No sign of Jewel singing in Batman & Robin Well yes, as CJ said this morning there was no "Foolish Games" in the new Batman & Robin movie. As a matter of fact not one piece of music with a voice in it occurred until the credits, then they played the Smashing Pumpkins song (can't remember the title) and then they played "Gotham City" by R. Kelly. So, I carefully (when I remembered) listened to the music for maybe an instrumental bit of "Foolish Games", and at one point I DO think I may have heard it. Thing is, I didn't realize it until the end of the scene. This scene occurs in the first 40 or so minutes of the film, and it is in the *first* scene in the observatory where the Uma Thurman character (before she becomes Poison Ivy in costume) petition Bruce Wayne to "save the plants". I *think* the music playing at/near the end of that scene may have been an instrumental piece of "Foolish Games" (The projectionist would NOT stop the film and rewind at that point so I could check ;) As to why "Foolish Games" was not in the film with Jewel singing it, do *not* blame ME, even though the credits at the end of the movie lists the Musical Director's name as Michael Connell (I'm not kidding) No sign of a Harris in the credits ;) Oh, the film did entertain me, but I agree with CJ they went for the laughs too much with too many one-liners.

But this one (JewelArc1@aol.com) is. If anyone needs me, adress email to both adresses this weekend. It should be fixed soon. Also, I'm happy to report that the 143rd tour book was sold. Why is this significant you ask? Well, it's because 70% of that $1430.00 equals exactly $1001.00 toward the JPK Trust. The check has also officially been sent. :-) Theres still approx 40 not spoken for. Email if you need ordering info. Finally, the earliest Jewel fans may remember this: Way back when, during the late Innerchange/early residency tours days, Jewel supplimented her income by selling her "Shiva Diva Doo Wop" demo tape & some very special posters that were designed by her mom Lenedra. These posters are quite unique & a highly collectible Jewel item. The poster featured a purple angel on a blue background framed in gold & the ANGEL GLOWS IN THE DARK. :-) At the bottom it says "Participate In Miracles". There was a principle behind the posters, too. They were sold in pairs only. You were to keep one & give one away or post it somewhere appropriate. Anyway, Lenedra uncovered some of these posters recently & we're going to try & make them available to EDAs with some kind of EDAFoundation support involved. I'll update you when I know more. Best wishes, MrBB (Alan) <---reversed on this account..... ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 20 Jun 1997 17:51:04 -0700 From: Casey Hansen Subject: Unplugged Okay, don't know if its been posted yet, but the Jewel Unplugged will air Tuesday night @ 10!

Thank you.. I've been totally worried about this movie... 'specially when I first heard Clooney was gonna be in it... He doesn't even look like a Batman (or Wayne).. neither did Keaton.. I've only liked Val Kilmer as Batman.. #3 had been my favourite of the trio so far.. I even liked the soundtrack ten times better then the new one.. the only thing going for the B&R soundtrack is SP and Jewel.. (what's with the same song on twice tho.. could they not get enough artists)... I loved nearly every song on Batman Forever The commercial have only heightened my fears of seeing it.... Robin (as they are falling) "I got you" (ice breaks.. they keep falling) Batgirl (shoots grapling hook and catches Robin) "No I got you" (in only the stupidest "I want you" voice I've ever heard) I've always liked comics and Robin is my second favourite comic (wolverine is my first) but it doesn't keep me from hating the movie...
