Music reviews of Spirit
Music Review: Dangerous
Rating: 5 Stars
This is the only Jewel CD that borders dangerously on corny. Some of that is to be expected however, for one talks of 'Spirit' one can fall into that snare. The vocals are, as usual, impressive and the lyrics are smooth, deep, and thought provoking for the most part. There are a few exceptions however. You might blandly say 'What?' after certain lyrics and tell yourself you must have heard her wrong. I wasn't very into this one at first, but it has become one of my faves. I give her five stars because I love her and because she went with her musical intuition. Even if we don't always get it, she's being honest and that's all that can be asked or expected from an artist. Rock on Jewel.

It's time for an update of our image of Jewel, the ingenue who set the music world on fire with her 1995 debut album, Pieces of You. After all, that effort consisted primarily of songs Jewel had written several years before, some of them dating back to her days as a free- spirited waif living in a van on the beach in San Diego. Now, at 25, she's become a sort of guru for self-expression and full disclosure, revealing perhaps too much of herself in see-through dresses worn to awards shows and a critically drubbed (yet bestselling) book of poetry. Spirit makes plain why Jewel's well-intentioned yet sometimes facile lyrics strike a chord with her audience while her poetry lies flat on the page. On songs like "Deep Water," "Hands," and "Down So Long," her words are borne aloft by sparkling melodies and her soaring voice, making even the most cynical observer take a schoolgirl-notebook image such as "your heart like grape gum on the ground" or an unreassuring platitude like "If I could tell the world just one thing / It would be that we're all OK" somewhat in stride. On Pieces of You, Jewel posed the musical question "Who will save your soul?" On Spirit, it sounds like she wants to do it herself. And the truth is, if you don't overanalyze it, the album does act as a sort of balm for wounded psyches or maybe a primer for raising your own inner child. Maybe she's right and we are all OK. Who knew? --Daniel Durchholz
