She used to sound more like Palin when she first came out. Not quite as strong though. The Alaskan accent is very diluted now considering all the places she has lived and with a music ear that Jewel has, she picks up accents very easily. She sounds more like a texan now than ever before because that is where she lives.

If Jewel has a typical Alaskan accent then surely her accent would sound more Canadian. For example:

If Jewel says 'Out and About' she would actually sound like this: 'ooot an abooot'
but she doesn't so point made

lalalala
