i remeber first hearing jewel when you were meant for me aired on mtv back when they still showed videos wow she started with nothing and went on to.. well the rest is history i think she does country now though
I idolize Celine Dion, one of the most technically perfect singers who also incorporates emotion into her songs, but I love Jewel because she is just pure emotion.

she's way off in this......just goes to show, she doesn't sound good without all the technology clearing things up and making it better than what it actually is. there's a friend of mine on my channel that sounds way better than this....just saying
@Shadesofblue1988 I'm tone deaf as hell, but that changes nothing about Jewel. There's all kinds of people who can sing to technical perfection and you know what, they're as boring as hell to listen to. Jewel has radiance. And even if her voice isn't 'technically' perfect, it's the perfect match for her music.
@silverlight68 I can't argue against what other people "like" ~ that's just someone's opinion. Similarly no one can talk about "boring" singers since that's subjective. But Jewel can NOT sing, I don't know about her other songs, but in this video, she isn't singing properly when she starts resonating her voice, she's squealing like a strangled cat, and way off key when she does so.
wow..... so many artists are 'studio artists' who sound like crap live in person.... not jewel! this was just amazing, you could just feel it come out of her as she sang, so powerful. even the radio dj was wowed and you could tell. and this is my favorite song of hers to boot, woot woot!
I agree that a lot of artists today sound horrible live (and not even like the sound on their albums). But we should note that there are a lot of factors to consider, like who's being marketed, to whom, and the arguably lower barrier to entry regarding music.
Anyways, often times it's not the most popular music that's the best.
@cougher989 That's because "artists" today are signed for their physical appeal and not their musical talent and market value. Record companies are now run by people in suits who don't know shit about musical talent. They just know about how to make money. That's all they care about. And they're scared to take the financial risk to sign new artists. That's why you keep hearing the same recycled shit on the radio today. Check out New Normal Music
I love how she sings her song differently and plays the guitar a little bit differently all the time. She's so amazing. It always seems like she's improvizing and doing such a good job of it.
She's never been paticularly big here in the UK. She's picked up a small cult following, but as far as commercial success goes - she's scored one top 40 album ('This Way' #34) and two top 40 hits ('You Were Meant For Me' #32 and 'Down So Long' #38) Chances are if you went upto someone in the street they would have no clue as to who she was. I think the last time she played live over here was way back in 2002 on the 'This Way' tour. She was amazing live, but in recent years i've lost interest.
Do you think you're cool cause you talk like that? or is that how you compensate for shortcomings in life?? either way you're a loser and my advice is go die for disrespecting jewel. "proper t-bagging," shut the fuck up you faggot.

And your the cum guzzling loser for sticking up for someone you will never even meet in your pathetic lifetime! You sorry ass sword swallowing, ass monkey!
i really love this song it makes me sad though because it reminds me of how i felt when i broke up with my boyfriend omg im crying listening to it right now......................
if you don't love jewel you're a hater...i'm a twenty year old dude that mostly listens to metal and underground hip hop...but i love me an alaskan folk singing cutie
i ain't no homo....homos can do their thing, cuz it don't involve me...seeing as how your judgemental and callin me a homo, your prolly ashamed to be a closet homo...your watching jewel too ya know...and you commented...so people know now...you fail...peace

Came to this sight because Im writing a book on what Homo's listen to and why! Thanks for helping with my research! I find most closet homo's like Jewel, as well as the full on flaming fisters like yourself! I would like to thank you in my book for giving me the inspiration too write about such a hot homo topic! Thanks
Yeah I've gotta agree that this is a fairly poor version of the song. Too much embellishment - there's not enough development of the melody. A real shame because the album version is exceptional in that regard. However to play the same song thousands of times and keep it sounding inspired is probably well nigh impossible, so it's hard to criticize nevertheless.
lol, yeah that's what it looks like, but she has 6.....watch when she does the harmonics, you can see the strings then...especially if you pause it at 1:33
I love Jewel so much there is no artist that can touch someone soul like her and have a song that she wrote herself and every time she sings it make it sound different and better each time.
It's not her voice that is messing up, it is the means by which she was recorded. Provided the proper recording equipment, she would sound like an angel...as always.
the b and high e strings are on there, they're just hard to see because of how thin they are. but she probably could anyway, she's one of the best. im a big fan and this is one of my favorite songs of hers and the most beautiful performance of it ive seen/heard.
