Jewel duets

[ItBeThatWay27]

Who do you enjoy hearing Jewel sing with? Sorry I am sure I am missing some people in this poll, but there's only 10 options and these are the only ones I could think of, to my knowledge... feel free to post about more

[last_dance_rodeo]

the merle haggard ones i've always enjoyed

[Little Bird]

Absolutely has to be Joe Firstman. 'Everything Reminds me of you' is just a beautiful song! I adore it and Joe's voice is gorgeous singing it. They blend well together on that song.

[JewelWiki]

I agree about Joe Firstman. He sings with such emotion! Matches Jewel very well. Steve Poltz is great, too, but a bit more on the quirky/silly side of things.

[DreamsLast]

I voted for Merle, but I think we should add Atz (her father) to the list. I LOVE the yodel song they do together!!!! I'd for for that if it was an option!

[randallflagg]

steve of course!!!

[never.alone]

i choose joe i love that song also and thought their voices went well together more than poltz that ive heard so far anyway

[ItBeThatWay27]

I chose Merle as well. I really love Silver Wings and I love the Yodel song they did together as well. It was close b/c I like her w/ Jason Mraz and also w/ Garth Brooks. I like her stuff with Joe Firstman as well, everyone is right their voices go well together.

Christie, I didn't know she has a yodel song w/ Atz..

[M€RIO]

I voted for Melissa Etheridge because the performance from Jewel with her of Foolish Games is so awesome!! But her duet with Joe Firstman is really nice! Their voices fit so good together, but I voted for Melissa because no one voted for her since yet

I've added him in, removed your vote for Merle and added it to Atz!

[DreamsLast]

Thanks Kiera!! After all, he was her very 1st duet partner!! :-)

[ItBeThatWay27]

Kiera can't you up the poll options to like 15 or something so we won't have these 10 options only issues like with all the album questions???? (since most albums have around 14 tracks)

[Little Bird]

Yeah sure. It was on a default of 10. Never had a need to look at that setting til now.

It's done. I've up'd it to 15.

Did Jewel perform this song with both Atz & Merle Haggard?? I didn't think it was one that she sang with Merle on...(copy & paste courtesy of JewelWiki site).
Yo


Lyrics

Yo

by Atz Kilcher
As sung by Jewel and Atz Kilcher

[Jewel and Atz together]

A little yodeling song
for my man Yo
And I know that Yo don't know
That I wrote this song a late one night
He'd heard me yodeling down at Hobo Gin's
And we were hanging out at the Putter Inn
He was beggin me to yodel
And Oh Yo he wasn't half the type
He held out his hand
I said "What's your name?"
And he said "Yo"
So I asked him again
And he said "Yo" again
So I figured it must be his name
Well I was having some perculiar thoughts
But you can't say much with a name like Atz
So I settled back
Tried to figure out Yo-yo's game
Now Yo was sailin three sheets of the wind
With a frozen stare
And an ear-to-ear grin
He kept beggin me to yodel, sayin
"G-gget up there and yodel with the band"
It was my good friend Rod with a hired gun
So I stepped up to have a little bit of fun
With the lead, and the bass and the drummer and the rhythm man
Now Yo he staggered right up to the stage
He had this angelic smile on his face
That sucker looked like he floated up to heaven and he died
While I never had a fan quite like Yo before
He stood there mesmerized on the floor
He started stompin and clappin when he heard my yodeling cry

(chorus)
And I said
Yo This yodeling song's for you
No matter where you go
No matter what you do
Remember that time spent yodeling's time well spent
I've never had myself a fan club before
But Yo don't you know that one thing's for sure
If I do I'll make you my fan club president

And I said
(Yodel)

Well when I got through
I said "There you go Yo"
And he was still smiling but his eyes were still closed
And I thought I was going to get away from him
But then he opened them wide and said
"I-II want to hear some more"
Well I was wearing out my welcome and I was running out of time
But I decided that I'd yodel up another line
Cause I thought it was the only way I could get Yo off the floor
Then I got to thinking
I realized
Suddenly I realized
Why old Yo liked yodeling
Because everytime I yodeled I was saying Yo's name
Well then I got to thinking it probably wouldn't work too well
In fact it downright sounds like hell
If you ever try to yodel using anybody elses name

Try Inga
Inga-lay (etc.)

See what I mean It just doesn't work

So In this whole wide world
No matter where I go
One thing I've learned
I've finally know
I'll never yodel again if there's anyone in the audience named Yo

And I said
Yo This yodeling song's for you
No matter where you go
No matter what you do
Remember that time spent yodeling's time well spent
I've never had myself a fan club before
But Yo don't you know that one thing's for sure
If I do I'll make you my fan club president

And I said
(Yodel)
(long yodel)

[ItBeThatWay27]

I'm confused. That's the "Yo" song she sings with Merle Haggard. Are you sure the version you have Christie is w/ Atz and not Merle?
