Jewel - Summertime

[juliequimik]

She's right, your mama ain't ugly... moreover, she is so fucking GOOD-LOOKING!.

[jasonito23]

I never heard Jewel sing loud like this before. but I haven't listened to anything by her for YEARS

[Oxide333500]

Terrible!

[Rexicano]

You can't fake Blues singing....well, you can try I guess.

Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible Horrible

[PtolemyJones]

Wow, That's pretty bad. 

[ellenripley71]

I don't like it at all!!

[MademoiselleMaeve]

Love Jewel. Love this song. Together? Not so much.

[karengurl101]

very artistic take on the song..

[deadlight100]

lyrics of this song are a parody of 'janis joplin and jimi hendrix - summertime'

[chadchap]

rubbish

[phillyvinilli]

Yep, My mum aint no Minga

[EbunnyEthereal]

why did the audience sound so enthused?? i like jewel, and i LOVE "summertime," but i'm sorry to be the one to break the news... that sucked. i can't think of anyone who's rendition is even close to being on a low enough level to make a comparison that wouldn't sound ridiculous.

[SopranoOfTheNight]

She took far too many liberties with the tune and the lyrics. It sounds good and she has a nice voice, but it's wrong. This song isn't Summertime, it is based on Summertime, she has changed it to the point where it isn't the same song. George Gershwin wrote the tune the way it is for a reason, and Ira Gershwin wrote the lyrics the way they are for a reason. There is nothing wrong with them, so why would a singer ever feel the need to change them? This isn't the same song.

[theuglyrose]

Fucking unholy caterwauling!

[benjamin19920707]

b4 this i liked this song....

[hellavahelica]

she kinda looks like dian lane or kate hudson on 1:30/

[DavelovesRealMusic]

This is the ONLY bootleg versio nof her singing Summertime..It IS from Jewelstock.she only played this EARLY on the 1996 tour. When she

opened for Neil Young..and no one cared (Neil fans). Ths is probably the best version ...

[sparklinchampagnee]

she looks like kate moss at 1:33 =DD

[Maijolin]

0:44 is she a Nazi?!?

[thelorena101]

i played this song for my jazz ensemble

[ddviolinist]

"And your Mama ain't ugly?" LOLOL.......well, I guess she took liberties.

[Astrid998]

Your voice is a really a jewel, Jewel!!

But take care: don't sing too loud!!!

[kingrue69]

IF this was from Jewelstock that would be July 1996.

[andrey3001]

she changed the lyrics. fabulous performance nonetheless. this song is originally by george gershwin from porgy and bess.

[mdelair420]

yeah thats true but sam cookes version is king for me..but we all have are favorites,and im sureyou have your favorites.godbless.

[trtepol]

summertime is an old jazz song, performed earlier by Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald and meny others... This just confirms how great vocal abilities Jewel have...

Shes one of the best vocals ever!

[MusicIsMe16x]

I looked up lullably on wikipedia, cause I wanted to know the defination & the lyrics to this song were featured on there, so this might be on the new lullably album who knows?

[AustrianKilcherian]

Is this actually a song of her?

[OMFGIReallyHateYou]

no, its a well known song and it expresses feeling and understanding of the world, dont get your hopes up but your day will come oneday =] im singing this for a piece and im gunna out it on utube

[xerxesVIII]

it is written by ira and george gershwin for the opera porgy and bess about 1933 and is told to be based on an unkrainian lullaby. maybe jewel's interpretation is an bit inspired by janis joplin (did cover this too, as many others)

[ereine78]

it's amazing, genial, super ! merci !

[nandrtube]

Where was this recorded?

[strummin2jewel]

I think it is from JewelStock. I'm pretty sure that was 1997.

[Shadows921]

She never fails to amaze me with that phenomenal voice!
