Title: A CZ in the Rough?
Product review: I wanted to like this CD, really. Admittedly, I shouldn't have been so shocked that I didn't, after all I hated the first one. I will say this, though, this album is far better, musically and lyrically, than "Pieces of You." But, and this is a big but, she still hasn't outgrown her preachy tendancies. Shying away from all forms of humor and irony, Jewel once again proves that she is not in the forefront of America's premiere singer-songwriters. If you ever wondered what an episode of Oprah would sound like over an acoustic guitar, then this is the album for you. If, however, you're like me and find this idea slightly frightening, skip it and buy something by Elliott Smith instead.
