Does anyone recall what this song is specifically about? i know she wrote it when she was 16 and stuff, but was it in response to a legitimate relationship? also, i might have posted this before, but has anyone noticed the number of times she uses the phrase (or variations of) the phrase, "I'm too far from home" I can t think of examples right now cause its late and Im tired, but it makes me really sad to think that she feels that way often enough to put it into at least like 3 of her songs. she adds it in even, on a song thats on the Unplugged CD, or DDDelight I think..i really can't remember, but i know she throws it in somewhere that it isnt "supposed"to be. Just a thought... I hope she's happy... :) - -lindsey ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 27 Jun 2000 23:55:04 -0700 (PDT) From: Benjamin Byer Subject: * Dreams last for so long First off let me say hello. I used to float around here and post every once in a while about 3 years ago (I think) and now Im back :) Im glad to see people still here. As far as dreams lasting so long, here is how I feel about that line.. The magic of falling in love with someone can happen at anytime. Two people grow together and care for the other as much, or more, then they care for themselves. They each love the person that they came to know in the springtime of love. People grow and change though, sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse, or sometimes they just start to feel different about things. The couples love either grows with this change becoming stronger the whole time, or it remains as a perfect, but stagnant, vision of what it was. When two people in love grow apart their love remains, but it remains as a love for the way things were and may have been. The shared fears and laughter and dreams of the future are still there, still felt and experienced even after the couple is gone. That love becomes a sad and soft mourning, not for the past, but for a missed future. It is a mourning that offers no closure and no healing but offers a comforting hand when tears kiss your lips, comforting with the memories and shared dreams of magic that two people shared. It tears at your heart offering a glimmer of hope for a return to an innocent childhood, unmaintainable by damage and exhaustion, but still present in both your dreams. Sorry I wrote so much, I cant sleep tonight. Anyway, im glad to be back :) The Homeless Angel PS As far as guitar TABS are concerned try looking at Gerrits webpage (I even have a couple in there :) www.endor.org/jewel ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 28 Jun 2000 13:29:13 PDT From: "Amy Emerman" Subject: * NJC: Amy Emerman--Gig Alert Hi!

I don't know, Just My Opinion ... What does everyone else think?

I certainly don't (I think it was some time last year) Well the long wait is finally over, yes we finally get to hear Jewel on TV. Tune into BBC 2 this Saturday at 11:40 pm for the movie The Crossing Guard. Listen out for Jewel singing Emily, I think it's about two thirds of the way through the film, and I'm sure we get to hear at least a minute of the song. Enjoy! Chris.

In an interview i read a while back I remember her saying that foolish Games was made up from alot of diffrent poems. So I dont think that it could be about one certain relationship but maybe it reminded her of something going on in her life at the time. You know?

I don't know about everyone else, this is just my personal opinion, but I absolutely HATE it when artists steal "love ballads" or "anguished slow songs" and make them into trashy dance music!!!! The reason those songs were so popular, and were written to slow music is because that's the way they were meant to be! To "strum a chord" in our hearts somewhere. Then someone comes along and puts it to a faster tempo and completely ruins the object of the song. Up until now, the best example of this (which of course I hated bitterly) was that song from Titanic sang by Celine Dion (can't recall the name now) I should have known that eventually they'd get to Jewel...I"d just hoped it wouldn't be for a few more years! ~<3~ Sandy ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 28 Jun 2000 18:12:44 PDT From: "Amy Emerman" Subject: * Re: NJC: DUH (location of my gig) oops.
