Hey guys, its been a while. Anyway I just wanted to tell you of my first experience with Jewel's song. Personally I feel this is the best way to hear it but you decide... Saturday morning as the alarm of my clock goes off (it's set to radio STAR 98.7). What do my ears hear? Ah yes! That song I've been reading so much about. "Hands" is blaring next to my ear to soothingly wake me from my slumber. I open my eyes and realize this is my first exposure to a song I'm sure I will hear hundreds of time in the future. To my delightment it is the beginning of the song, I think. I am fully refreshed by the end of it and arise for the new day with that song in my head. Yeah! Well...that's it. I hope the narrative style of the writing was not too annoying for some of you, I just wanted to be as detailed as possible so you may feel what I felt. Thanks for reading! E-mail me or ICQ me about this or anything else. Later y'all! - -Brian ICQ: 5211812 ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 4 Oct 1998 00:40:57 -0700 (PDT) From: Scott Evans Subject: Hands (kinda) lyrics I don't know if anyone has posted the lyrics to Hands yet, officially or unofficially. I thought I'd post what I heard for the people who haven't heard it yet... I think they are pretty accurate... Hands Written by Jewel Kilcher If I could tell the world just one thing It would be we're all okay And not to worry 'cause worry is wasteful And useless in times like these I won't be made useless Won't be idle with despair Will govern myself around my faith That lights the darkness amongst fear CHORUS: My hands are small I know But they're not yours, they are my own But they're not yours, they are my own And I am never broken Poverty stole your golden shoes It didn't steal your laughter And heartache came to visit me But I knew it's wasn't ever after We'll fight, not out of spite But someone must stand up for what's right 'Cause where there's a man who has no voice There our shadows sleep CHORUS In the end, only kindness matters (x2) I will get down on my knees, and I will pray (x3) CHORUS (x2) We are never broken We are God's hands (repeat until end) (I could swear sometimes she says In God's Heart or In God's Eyes sometimes too...) ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 4 Oct 1998 09:20:31 -0400 From: lklecanda@juno.com (Lisa A Klecanda) Subject: "Hands"/ EDA poem book Hello, again! Well, sadly I haven't heard "Hands" yet. But from all the feedback I'm hearing it sounds great!! I can't wait to hear it! Also, I'm done printing all the poems for the book, & I'm working on the cover. I haven't yet put a price on it, but I'm thinking maybe $12.00. If that changes, I'll let y'all know. I know that price might sound a bit steep, but it will cover the expenses (paper, ink, & postage). Well, bye for now!

KIIS has a streaming audio but it's kind of fuzzy. Plus you don't know when it will be on. I also checked Star 98.7 as some posted about. No real audio but they do have their play list. The one posted is for the week of Sept. 28th. So try checking it for this week. It has a section on new music. However they have a place on the site called Star lounge and their is a pic of Jewel. Here is the direct URL to the pic http://www.star987.com/PICS/JEWEL.jpeg If anyone from Hawaii has heard Hands please email me. Or if anyone called any local radio stations please email me as well.

Hi, sorry to beat this "Hands" thing to death, but I was also wondering if anyone knows when it's going to get played in Canada anytime soon, in particular Toronto. I know this has already been asked but I was worried people would privately mail the answer to the EDA who asked. Also, for all of you Toronto Area EDA's, I'm trying to organize a Toronto gathering but I could use ideas for what to do? (concert with other bands I know?) or where it should be? And when it should be? thanks adamthomasbunch ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 4 Oct 1998 15:15:17 EDT From: PENNY16161@aol.com Subject: Special poll results (Poll 26)...aka - Jewel management needs your ideas Sender: owner-jewel@smoe.org Precedence: bulk Here are the results to this special poll requested by Jewel's management: Guitar picks - 9 Key chains - 6 Autographs - 5 Bumper stickers/Car window stickers - 5 1999 calendar - 5 Sheet music book - 5 Lyric book for non-album tracks - 4 EDA Jewelry - 4 Post cards - 4 Photos of concerts - 3 Buttons - 3 Sweatshirts - 3 Dolls/Figurines - 3 Baseball caps - 2 Ties - 2 Mouse pads - 1 Patches - 1 Playing cards - 1 Long sleeved shirts - 1 Songbook - 1 Pictures of Jewel when she was young -1 Puzzles - 1 Picture Frames - 1 Stationary - 1 Blanket - 1 Jewel's favorite literature - 1 Watches - 1 Bookmarks - 1 Guitars - 1 Extra large clothing - 1 Tank tops - 1 Trading cards - 1 Tickets to concerts/backstage passes - 1 Jackets - 1 Pens - 1 Other suggested merchandise that did not fit the poll question (new items of the same thing and recordings did not fit, sorry): New T-shirts - 15 New Posters - 13 Videos of concerts - 8 CD Singles - 3 CD-Rom with Jewel videos - 3 A CD with unreleased songs - 1 Thanks to all who voted.

I'm at college in Clemson, and I can't get either station here. It sucks! Anyway, thanks to whoever requested Jewel's awesome new song.

Hey EDA's, I'm so sorry not everyone has the opportunity to hear Jewel's new song because it is WONDERFUL!! I live in the Dallas area and already I have heard it twice. I can't believe they are playing it so early, but no complaints here! Hands is definately one of her best songs, she has really used the recording studio to her benefit this time! I think you all will like it very much! This single makes me even more excited for the new album...hope everyone gets to hear it soon. Take care angels.

Well, no one know for sure if she did or didn't answer them. Well, now that problem is solved. I worte to Jewel earlier this year (not sure when exactly) but just yesterday, Saturday, October 3, 1998, I recieved mail from Jewel herself! Actually not really from herself since she was too busy... but anyway, I sent her a picture and a letter with a pen, asking her if she could sign it and return it. Well, she didn't sign that picture but she did return it. Before you get carried away because she didn't sign it, let me finish! But she did send two (2) large postcards and one of them was signed!!!!!!!! I just got back from Wal-Mart for frames for them and I thought I'd share with all of you my happiness and to close the case of the question:Does Jewel Reply Fan Mail? Well have a nice day everyone!

The other night I called in to our radio station (101.9 WVAQ) and requested "Hands" and get this......The DJ boasted that they were the only radio station to have it....period. Well, naturally I had to set him straight and I told him that i knew people from other cities that were hearing it on their stations too...... And he said "I don't believe it one bit!" And so an argument ensued.....::giggling:: Talk about an ego the size of Alaska!!! He swore up and down that they were the only station that played it..... I was quite angered by this...... Is anyone else having this trouble with self-centered DJ's that think Jewel's new song is theirs and theirs alone?? LOL........ Anyway.. just thought I'd let you all know how stupid my DJ is....hahahaha...... Love Peace and Chicken grease!!!

The results will be forwarded to J-Management for their consideration. And thank you Brent, for allowing us use your talent & resources! Also, to all who are anxiously awaiting hearing Jewel's new single "Hands", most major radio stations should have the promo single by Oct19th now. And....I don't know if this will reach you in time, but Steve Poltz is singing the National Anthem at tonight's Padres game in San Diego. This game is broadcast on the Fox Network at 7:30PM EST tonight on the East Coast. Check local listings for broadcasts elsewhere. And heres my answer to this: Nubbay@aol.com asked: Does Anyone Know Why Jewel Hates "Free Bird" ?????? Jewel doesn't actually "hate" this famous Lynyrd Skynyrd song. For those folks who don't understand this question, let me elaborate. In the United States, beginning in the late 1970's, probably the most common "joke request" heard from audiences for any musician or band was for "Free Bird". It became such a common joke request as to become cliche'. In the early 70's, & prior to "Free Bird" being written, the same thing would happen to almost every performer with people yelling for "Stairway To Heaven" (by Led Zeppelin). It's really nothing more than people yelling for a song they know is a ridiculous (& funny?) request. So....Jewel doesn't actually hate the song "Free Bird". Her negative reaction is to people constantly yelling out such a cliche' & overused joke. Have a good night, MrBB ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 04 Oct 1998 22:30:09 -0400 From: Mike Connell Subject: Jewel list will be down Tuesday and half of Wednesday Hi folks :-) Just wanted to give you all a "heads-up" that the Jewel list won't be operating after 9:00am Eastern US time Tuesday until about 1:00pm or so on Wednesday, as it's a moderated list and I'll be unavailable to operate it during that period. So, if you could hold off on sending any posts to the Jewel@smoe.org list from 9am Tuesday until Wednesday morning it would help. :-) As for other smoe.org lists, they will be operating as normal. I'll post a reminder message when this down period begins.
