Babb) Subject: "Hands" in Dallas Hey groovy angels!!! This morning at like 6am I called kiss fm (a dallas radio station) and asked them if they had the new Jewel song. She told me she did and would play it for me. I was so excited! They didn't even mention it on the radio until 7:45 like right before I had to leave and go to school. So I just put in my Jewel tape and pressed record. I've been listening to it eversince I got home, it is like her very best song ever!!! It sounds REALLY good, I know it'll go number one imediately! I can't wait to hear the rest of the album! Okay angels gotta go, bye!!!

Since some most EDA's haven't yet heard "Hands", I was wondering if you lucky EDA's who have heard it could kinda describe if for the rest of us? Is it slow, kinds like "Foolish Games" a little up-beat like WWSYS, or comeletly different? Thanks a lot! - --Jon http://listen.to/ggta ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 1 Oct 1998 18:33:26 EDT From: CloudWingz@aol.com Subject: NJC: LOL Hey Angels! I just had to comment on Sinjin's post! It was hilarious! It's always so great when people can show a sense of humor and add lightness to a list when such heated arguments can occur. Personally, the post reminded me that this list is about having fun, talking to friends, and smiling, as well as for having discussions about Jewel. Thanks, Sinjin, you made me smile! BTW, don't forget the new album cover- it's a picture of dancing Kookybakas in liederhosen...Woohoo! ~Jenny The angel who has an immense crush on Tim even though he has a big gap in his front teeth and his entire wardrobe consists of only identical plain black and white T-shirts, but is too scared to talk to him so yesterday she just walked up to his little group at lunch and stood 2 feet away from him and stared at him for 5 minutes without saying anything and then left and squealed about the whole experience in front of Tim's best friend Brian...oops. AKA Kooklybaka Sugar High Angel (I'm going for the EDA record of longest angel name- I can make a longer one if necessary :) ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 1 Oct 1998 19:00:36 EDT From: CloudWingz@aol.com Subject: Jewel honors Nedra in San Diego I just read in the San Diego Union-Tribune entertainment section (the "Night and Day", on the last page, the "looking ahead" section) that an awards ceremony will be held *Nov. 5th at the Sheraton San Diego Hotel and Marina*. Jewel, along with other famous San Diegans, past and present, such as Annette Bening, will be there honoring their mothers. So Jewel will be there honoring Nedra! You can attend for $100, with all proceeds going to the March of Dimes. It's also a dinner. If anyone decides to attend, please post about it! It sounds like it would be a great experience and a wonderful ceremony! ~Jenny KookyBaka Sugar High Angel ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 1 Oct 1998 19:09:14 EDT From: EDA10@aol.com Subject: sjc GUITAR PLAYRS??

We don't play her." When I asked him why he said "I don't know, she has crooked teeth, I guess. Keep Listening." He then hung up. I just thought you might want to know. BTW, have any of you heard Hands yet on local Detroit stations? //\//\att //\dler the "Thespian" Angel ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 1 Oct 1998 17:34:19 -0700 (PDT) From: k adema Subject: Hands in Buffalo I don't know if this will reach the list in time, but I just called Kiss 98.5(@8:30pm), They said they have "Hands", and they already played it once. If you live in Buffalo, NY or Western NY listen to Kiss around 11pm, because they said they will play it around then. Kyle ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 1 Oct 1998 18:06:46 -0700 (PDT) From: Scott Evans Subject: Jewel article in SPIN Magazine Here is a Jewel-related article that is in the October issue of SPIN Magazine (with Hole on the cover)...I'm not sure if anyone has posted it yet, so here goes: GOT POETRY? Or Why it matters in the age of Jewel by Dennis Cooper Folk-rocker Jewel sits on a high stool, cushily lit by a single, pale overhead spotlight. The camera pans in and she begins to speak, but not in that low-key, chatty way familiar to her multitude of fans. Instead, there's an odd rhythm to her sentences, and what she says makes very little sense, although it seems to mean a lot to her. "I am not from here / And my hair smells of the wind / And is full of constellations / As I move about the world." If you spent anytime channel surfing this past summer, it was difficult to avoid the aforementioned image as Jewel made the rounds promoting her first book of poetry, A Night Without Armor. As I see it, there were three possible ways to think about these performances: (a) Poetry, ugh. (b)Jewel is so multitalented. And (c) What has poetry done to deserve this? Chances are (c) wasn't the most popular response. In fact, it's likely that most people watching didn't have the slightest idea what seperates a great poem from a mediocre one, and probably think the question is irrelevant. Let me add that most people don't know what they're talking about. Could there be a more mongrel art form than contemporary poetry? Even those of us who love the stuff would be hard pressed to explain why it deserves your attention. Still, a case needs to be made for it - especially now. No other art form is more concise, self-contained and geared to the diminishing attention spans of the computer age. You want tech? Poetry is nothing but linguistical puzzles, trickery, and daredevil feats, but, unlike computer games and megabuck films, its special effects have a soul to match, not to mention the average poem takes up no more airspace than the average joke. Altogether, there's just no good reason why poetry books shouldn't be Barnes & Noble's meat and potatoes. Of course, there's little chance this will ever happen. Blame the rise of identity politics in the '80s, which transformed many poets into self-styled spokeshumans for their particular race, gender, or sexual orientation. Certainly, that subdivided an already miniscule audience. Maybe it was beacuse major-league performers such as Jewel and Lou Reed confused the book-buying public with their peotry tie-ins. Nor does it help that independent bookstores are a vanishing species, and that trying to buy poetry in chain stores is like trying to buy electronica at Wal-Mart. Yet all it takes to cut through the naysaying is to read one teriffic book. That's most of the Jewel content...There's a small picture of Jewel, too...
