the difference is, jewel had emotion in the song, because there was truth behind it, she probably lived tht. Takes nothing away from jordins ability though, beautiful voice.
@mariachiman247 yeah she meant it. It was the song that she and Steve Poltz wrote on their trip to Mexico in the nineties. It was after they were part of a drug bust. Find it under "Steve Poltz you were meant for me." Theres three parts to it. Or Jewel drug bust story
This was good, but you guys can hear Jordin sing it better if you type in: Jordin Sparks & Jesse McCartney. It'll show a video of them backstage, and she sings it better than she did here. This was good, but in the other one, she sings it great.
Umm....lemme set the record straight. Jordins good but Jewel is great for this song. Jewel owns her songs and i havent seen anyone do one of her songs that can stand up to be considered better than the original. Jewels a beast.........sorry. But jordins kool too lol
No one can sing jewel's song and be good at it because Jewel has such a uniqueness to her voice that the song can never be good without her voice on it.
That is not true. It was writen with Steve Poltz and she did credit him in the writing b/c she had to b/c the wrote it together. They dated years ago.
jordinsparks13 u r stupid and know nothing of music. Jewel wrote this song. she sings it the best. she is amazing and has more talent then this chick ever will.
yea sure .. thats why jordin is much more famous than jewel ?
she couldve been like taylor hicks and wouldnt of been famous after winning idol but she has a freakin good voice and people love her and is much more famous than jewel
oh yea im canadian and just to tell you i had no idea who Jewel was till the day Jordin did a cover of her song ... and Jordin IS a WAY better artist than Jewel .. if she was a bad artist she wouldve never won American Idol
U did not say that! Jordin is awesome, and is on her way to the top! First Idol to have 1st four singles become a top 20 hit, and to have three platinum singles in a row, one selling over 2.5 million. She's a star, and will become a bigger one when her album comes out this summer.

Jordin is more famous than Jewel ..
if you ask people who Jordin Sparks is there gnna tell you oh yea i know her shes the one who won american idol and has 3 singles ... tattoo no air and one step at a time ...
just accept the fact that jordin is known from countries all over the world and well jewel probably only a few in canada and prob the us .. but i dont think jewel is knowd in france or in the u.k. or in the philipines but no one knows jewel
im from the Philippines and I know Jewel. Jordin Sparks did an amazing cover of this song and i really liked it. I like them both, their vocal range is amazing.
shes so gorgeous! amazing voice. shes so sweet too! the whole "you guys were meant for me!"...awe. she didnt top jewel with this song, but shes still great.
not bad

Jordin Sparks LOL..
Never heard of her, but Jewel the canadian singer who sold shit loads more albums, Cd's merchandise tickets, i think the best voice says it.
But Jordan does it ok, but it's not the best I have heard.
In 10 years, Jordan will be a no one.
