  Music isn't the same anymore, nothing is. Take me back to the 90's and my childhood.

  Extremely underrated as a guitar player. Woman’s got chops.

  she played a small venue here in chicago back in 2003, in a semi-private event...there were probably about 25 of us there, and nobody except me knew who she was. not many people were actually paying her much attention...i think they didn&apos;t realize she used to be a huge star in the 1990s.<br><br>after her set, i got to sit at a table with her, just the two of us, and we had a friendly chat. <br><br>she&apos;s a very sweet, soft-spoken woman who&apos;s very real and down to earth. and she has the most beautiful smile.<br><br>she signed a business card which i borrowed from someone, because i didn&apos;t own any business cards. it says: &quot;dear Jim, thank you for the coffee and the lovely conversation. you&apos;re a true gentleman and a wonderful listener. your friend, Jewel K.&quot; <br><br>it looks nice in its little frame by the front door. she&apos;s such a sweetheart. i love her. &lt;3

  One of the most underrated talents in the history of music.

  It beautifully captures that weird, empty, depressed feeling that comes after a crushing breakup. Life goes on, but there&apos;s kind of a gray film over everything, and all the things that used to be normal feel off somehow. And paired with that gentle but relentless ostinato in the guitar, endlessly moving forward (despite the vocal line&apos;s resistance), until that one moment of almost-recognition of what&apos;s happened (&quot;hearts are broken every day&quot;)? Perfection.

  Jewel takes me back to the 90s. I miss those times. 2020s are ghetto as hell and awful.
