Editorial Review: Amazon.com: It's easy to see that Jewel wants to lighten up. With two previous multimillion-selling albums (and a couple of much-scorned but popular books) filled with earnest, clueless revelations behind her, the singer-songwriter comes a little closer to ground with This Way. "Give it hell 'til the end," a former compatriot urges her on "Till We Run Out of Road," her version of Jackson Browne's "The Load Out." Could that be a hard-bitten road warrior deep inside the woman who makes a point of pronouncing the O's in the opening line ("Mirror, mirror") of this CD's "Serve the Ego"? Maybe. But despite her icky streak's spread to cutesy jokes ("Jesus Loves You"), Jewel hasn't quite abandoned her old judgmental ways (in "I Won't Walk Away," she spies a couple "resisting being one") and ambitions to, you know, really say something, as in the "Desolation Row"-lite "The New Wild West." Still, with some nice, if bland, arrangements set around her, This Way is the Jewel album most likely to appeal to Jewel non-fans. --Rickey Wright Customer Reviews
Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Not Pop Not Country Not Rock Just JEWELOriginal is the only word I have to describe Jewel's style. She stands alone as the very best singer/entertainer today. This is one of her very best albums and there is nobody out there today who has more Talent. Buy this album relax and go where she has been and beyond. Her mother sure named her right. I've had this album like 7 years and it is still just as good now as it was new. Rating: - goodThis is really good music. My favorite one is Serve the Ego. I can listen to it all day. Rating:  - The parts are better than the wholeI put this on infinite repeat whilst doing housework. My wife came home and asked why I was playing country music. That's right, Jewel's gone back to her folk roots (not country) with this one, leaving me wanting. I picked it up for "Standing Still" and found a few other tracks that were more pop-ish, but if you're into neo-folk, this is the one for you. Rating:  - Very Nice Work!This could be construed as the album that made Jewel a crossover star. Standing Still is the catchy first track that appealed to the masses, even the country crowds as she opened for Garth Brooks here and there. Wonderful lyrics and catchy tunes make up this 14 song set. Cleveland is a wonderful song, and Love Me, Just Leave Me Alone shows Jewel has the juxsy to boss the boys around. Great album all around, no doubt about that. Rating: - one of my favorite albumsIt rocks, it swings, it's cute, it's passionate. I listen to this album over and over again and it never gets old. Jewel has a refreshingly wise yet innocent outlook on life and a great voice. She's not afraid to experiment, but no matter the genre or style, her music is genuine, plain and simple. |
