Jewel - You Were Meant For Me

[VoR]

A lot of her other songs are mildly embarassing in the cold light of 2023, but God I love this...

 

[RJN]

Her songs may be a bit embarrassing (faggot, etc) but her music really resonated with me as a kid and I still love her. And this is a 10

Her 11 for me is Hands

 

[RJN]

I think her first 5 albums all hold up and 0304 is such a moment

 

[Shoat]

This one is just a bit too TWEE really

I do need her to get the single version of What's Simple Is True onto Spotify STAT though

 

[Christian]

This is a bit too much for me these days too, as is most of the first album.

Spirit is still rather enjoyable though, and contains most of the songs of hers that I really like.

 

[funky]

Foolish Games is the one for me. But I do like this.

 

[Devil]

Yeah this is okay but I prefer Foolish Games from this era.

 

[jivafox]

A classic, a classic.

 

[RJN]

So I don't think I've heard any of her albums post Goodbye Alice In Wonderland. Any of them any good? The country albums or the sequel to Pieces of You?

Foolish Gamed is THE one from the first album for me too.

There are some fine tracks on ‘Picking Up The Pieces’ but to be honest I found it a bit of a slog overall though many seem to love it. I wasn’t keen on the country albums, again the decent tune here or there though I preferred the acoustic versions on the bonus disc that accompanied ‘Sweet & Wild’.

You can definitely miss Sweet & Wild and Freewheeling Woman, but there some worthy tracks on Perfectly Clear and Picking Up The Pieces, which I've popped onto a handy playlist for you:

 

[Suedehead]

10/10 of course.

YAAASSSS Two Become One so early in the playlist!!

 

[Shoat]

I wouldn't choose to listen to any of her newer works over her peak era.

I prefer my Jewel being INAPPROPRIATELY EARNEST rather than boringly twee.

"Fatboooooooo..."

 

[K.C.]

Aww I love this one. She has a wonderful voice.

I heard she's now in HUMAN RESOURCES

 

[Jocasta Clun]

Revolting. I'm giving it ONE though because there was much that was WORSE
