Album Description:
It comes as no surprise that Jewel, an acclaimed American singer, songwriter, actress, poet, painter, philanthropist and daughter to an Alaskan cowboy singer-songwriter, finds herself in the embrace of country music for the release of her seventh career album, Perfectly Clear.
Nashville Connections
Jewel's personal odyssey, partly chronicled on one of the best selling debut albums of all time, the twelve-time platinum Pieces of You, comes full circle with her forthcoming country album, Perfectly Clear, the debut release on newly launched Nashville-based independent label The Valory Music Co.
Jewel is set apart her whole career for not only singing, but writing all her songs, and this album is no exception."I've been writing country songs my whole career; some of the songs on this record date back to when I was 18 years old. I've been hanging on to them until now.They were meant for a record like this one."
The record's first single "Stronger Woman" is a powerful and positive message that resonates with women of any age.Perfectly Clear is produced by Jewel and John Rich of Big and Rich fame."Jewel is probably one of the greatest American singer-songwriters we have. It is such an honor to work with anyone of that caliber of talent," Rich says. Jewel has spent a lot of time in Nashville over the last few years, and has naturally been drawn to and accepted by the Nashville music community. "If I were discovered today, there is no doubt that I would be signed as a country artist.Songs like "You Were Meant For Me" would have been a country hit today, and not a pop hit as it was in the 90s.The genres have changed more than I feel I have," says Jewel.

- A True Jem
Jewel's first country album really reminds me of her This Way album.Many articles I have found say her fans may have a hard time with her flipping genre's all the time.I think that if she were to realese her original album, Pieces of You, in our current time it would have been debut in the country genre anyways.
Song that is great, #10, Cowboy Waltz.

- They just don't make 'em like they used to...
I LOVE Jewel, this cd is a bit lacking. It's missing that fire and passion she had in her voice and lyrics in Pieces of You and Spirit. It's just sort of middle of the road Jewel, not so special.
Rating: - I Like It
I like Jewel's 2008 album, as hybrid of country and adult alt rock. Her genre defining This Way goes ever forward without gloating. Obviously they're selling this on the attactive looks of the siger almost now a deacade since she broke big on MTV in 1996 or 1997. Easy listening palatable country music rock hybrid. It's not boring either.

- So disappointing...
When I was a teenager, Jewel was my hero. Her heartfelt songs and odd melodies captured my imagination for three albums straight.
Three albums later, Perfectly Clear appears on the scene, and I was so excited to hear her country "departure".
Excited until I heard it, that is.
One low point, lyrically, was the song "Thump Thump". "I swear I hear the language of your heart, and it says Thump Thump..." Oh really? Do tell. Hearing common metaphors about love sung as if they were ... Read More
Rating: - One of the best metal albums ever!
Don't be fooled by Jewel's sugary-sweet appearance, beneath the blonde hair lies a metal goddess! This is by far one of the best metal albums I've ever heard. From the chaotic guitar and wild animal-esque drumming of the first track "Stronger Woman", you definitely know this album is going to be like a full-on punch to the gut. Her screaming "cookie monster" vocals soar over the long guitar solos, which put lame metal singers like Dave Mustaine to shame. The best song is definitely "Thump Thump" ... Read More
