This is atrocious. She's had some bops, but this ain't it.

I think it's just sad how impositive it is to make a song under 3 minutes nowadays. This needs a bridge, it feels almost like an interlude. Interludes are hits now... who would have known?

It's a lot better than I expected. Hopefully it does something.

A lot of the songs on this album reminds me of Bjork. It's a compliment, of course.

I wonder if they tested it agains Train's f/ Jewel "Turn The Radio Up" and this faired better. They are performing Train's song on tour, but they didn't last night. I wonder if they're gonna switch to Dancing Slow and may include in Train's album later...

Isn't it too much of a sexist song? Really don't like the lyrics, couldn't get to the end of it.

What?! Odd timing huh? And it's much more of a Hot AC track though... Long Way Round unfortunately flopped big time, hopefully this will at least chart...

I love her vocals. Hopefully a solo version will appear, I'm sure I'll prefer that.

It reminded me of Mambo #5, and that's not a good thing.

I've tried to like it but I just find it annoying.

I've seen some videos from theses concerts and it seems really fun! I'm glad Jewel is back with a band, it's been a long while since she had one.

It sounds exactly like someone said, a Twenty One Pilots demo. Disappointing it's #1...

Lana del Rey has influenced the pop music landscape incredibly. I hope she is acknowledged of that in the future. Even if I'm not a fan, we gotta admit she shaped a whole batch of artists, both new and established ones.

The thing with Camila is that she/her management managed to get her name really well known. Her big hits were REALLY big hits. Havana and Senorita are not just regular hits. She's got a global fanbase. I don't think her flops stained her career at all, she's always had something on the radio. When My Oh My became a hit, she came from a string of flops but Senorita was just so huge that I don't think the public noticed she had a bunch of flops - or cared. Bam Bam is a decent hit and I think it cements her position as one of the top pop girls around.

Another NEW SONG! I love this so much, it's such a great sound for Jewel! It's supposed to be a bonus track to FW, maybe futures editions and vynil.
>>> “There is no place like Alaska,” writes Jewel in a statement. “When I first heard Maggie’s song, I felt an instinctual draw to the scene she’d created, and the mood of the ‘air in between.’ Alaska has shaped so much of who I am, and mindful breathwork is a practice I use every day, so I feel a kindred connection to this song. Can’t wait for you to hear it, enjoy and let me know what you think!”

This album is much more energetic and polished than I was expecting. Such a refreshing album from her. I've only spun it in its entirety a couple times, but I love what I hear. I will listen more this weekend. "When You Loved Me" is just stunning. It's like "Amen" meets Spirit. I rebuke this disgusting Spirit slander as well. Get Satan out of your ears! Yeah, Spirit is a classic. It has some real gems there.

They remembered to change the booklet to feature Train but did not bother to change de song… well, good for us Jewel fans, hehe.
My most listened song is Nothing But Love. Those harmonies in the end are just gorgeous, it reminds me a bit of Life Uncommon with The New Wild West and some 0304. It’s just gorgeous. The album as a whole is pretty impressive. I prefere the upbeat songs, Almost and When you Loved me are soooo sad, I have to be in the mood for them, but the upbeats are top notch.
I wonder if this was released instead of 0304, how it would have been received. It has a lot of 0304 moments, but more organic and well balanced with what people expect from her.

Reminds of Mariah Carey, something from Butterfly maybe. Is that crazy?

Jewel's song for The American Song Contest, representing Alaska, is out! It's a very interesting one, reminds me of ABBA somehow.
