Lol I felt the same with the whole Usher thing...I cringed when his advertisement popped up...but not as much as I cringed hearing this new Jewel album. I'm sticking to my general critique that this album is her best as far as lyrical content and vocals, just not musical genre.
"Thump Thump" is a beautiful song, all of the songs are...until all the fracking instruments kick in. All the songs have that stupid whiney looop in the background. AND WHY DOES THE CHORUS TO ROSY AND MICK SOUNDS LIKE IT NEEDS RITALIN????
I did enjoy the grandeur and class of "Anybody But You."
I love 0304 for 2 Become 1 and this version is sub par, there's no playfulness or romance to it.
"I DO" sounds flat until the very end when Jewel kicks in with power vocals.
June 2 Ninja Gaiden II comes out for the Xbox 360... all I'm saying......
