Jewel Has Become Britney Spears!!

Yikes! I just heard Jewel's new song "Intuition" and I sweh ta gawd - it is just another Britney song. :tsk:

In one stanza, she even rhymes something with "Charlie Sheen"


This from the same girl who lived in a VW van and sang in coffeehouses? :crack:
 
She kinda lost me after album 2, but I was really looking forward to hernew stuff, esp since she had heralded it as being her 'best work ever.'

Why do artists feel they have to do that in order to sell records?

So, I guess the acoustic guitar is gone...:sigh:
 
I just looked up the lyrics...

~~~~~~

I'm just a simple girl
In a high tech digital world
I really try to understand
All the powers that rule this land
They say Miss J's big butt is boss
Kate Moss can't find a job
In a world of post modern fad
What was good now is bad

It's not hard to understand
Just follow this simple plan

Follow your heart
Your intuition
It will lead you in the right direction
Let go of your mind
Your Intuition
It's easy to find
Just follow your heart baby

You look at me
but you're not quite sure
Am I it or could you get more?
You learn cool from magazines
You learn love from Charlie Sheen

If you want me let me know
I promise I won't say no

[CHORUS REPEAT]

You got something that you want me to sell
Sell your sin. Just cash in.
You got something that you want me to tell
You'll love me. Wait and see.

If you want me
Don't play games
I promise
it won't be in vain
Uh-uh-uh

[CHORUS]
 
haha, i like those lyrics.

she is soooooooooooooooooooooo good lookin.

i mean really, could she be any cuter or
 
Just downloaded it and gave it a listen...

Yeah...it sounds like it could very well be a Britney song. I wonder if all of her new songs are like this.
 
how, may i ask, is she pretentious?

i know nothing of her.

except one or two songs...

Well her story about living in the van and being discovered in a coffee house in San Diego was kinda cool and interesting but then a couple years after she gained fame, I read a story or two about her and her mom and in interviews (as far as I remember), Jewel and her mom came across as materialistic, self-centered people who had lost touch with reality. But I could well be wrong. Plus, I have to admit, there's just something about her stage presence that bugs me. She looks like she's trying too hard to be sincere.
 
SCREAMING FLOWER YOU DONT MAKE POETRY BOOKS, THUS HER BOOKS ARE BETTER THAN YOUR BOOKS!!!!!!

*taps cab two times

"Book em lou!"
 
Here's a small sample of her poetry:

LEAVING LAS VEGAS

Bill, Butch and Bart
Swapping penis size
in the front seat
which Thelma, Theisel and
Lou Lou up there
bouffant hairdos
and secretly go
where Blue eyeshadow
has never gone before


SUN BATHING

I read a book
and the man thinks
I can not see
the wrikled posture
of his son
as he is nudged.

He thinks
I can not sense
four eyes
upon my flesh
as the father tries
to bond with
his teenage boy
by ogling my breasts

WE TALK

We talk

slowly
about nothing
about movies

we stick to
surface streets

and find no
meaning in cafe windows
no substance in

hotel rooms
I used to unwrap you!
tender layers unfolding
like eager gold

but now
we are cool
and recount
our daily bores

as though
the sum of our

uses
equaled

something

(more)
substantial

while softer
things shrivel

and dry roots
go unfed

strangled
by the phone line
and all

that is

not said
