Critics said that Jewel returned to her roots on Goodbye Alice In Wonderland so I had to pick this one up. Unfortunately, my expectations were too high and it didn't deliver. Jewel tries to be crafty and there are a few nice songs but for the most part it sounds like all the other junk that tries to pass itself off as folk these days. Jewel is capable of much much better than this. Maybe next time. 2 Stars.
Jewel has delivered another wonderful CD.. It goes through her life from the time she started till now. And she delievrs songs without giving too much away, But getting the point across. You have to really be a fan, Know what she's been through- To "get it".. If you listen to the words, And the songs as wholes.. You WILL understand the songs.... It's ALL there in black and white. She writes things that aren't obvious.. But they are if you pay much attention!!
This is the lastest cd by one of my favorite artists. This cd returns more to the Jewel that everyone loves. The lyrics are better the music is better. Looks like she's putting 0304 behind her and getting back to business. The title track is the best on the cd in my opinion. It's a must for any Jewel fan!
If you were missing the Jewel from the 90s and early 2000s, then this is the CD for you! The whole CD tells a story, each song weaving representing a chapter in Jewel's life. My favorite song on the CD, "Stephenville" tells about Jewel moving to Texas because she "fell in love with a man". Very pure, back to basics Jewel. Love it!
I think this is an amazing CD, and anyone would love and appreciate the songs and the stories they tell. Her voice is angelic, the music is unbelievably soothing, the lyrics tell the stories like the heart was speaking for itself. You can listen to this CD over and over without growing tired of the magic it holds and feeds to your soul.
