Editorial Review: Album Description: It comes as no surprise that Jewel, an acclaimed American singer, songwriter, actress, poet, painter, philanthropist and daughter to an Alaskan cowboy singer-songwriter, finds herself in the embrace of country music for the release of her seventh career album, Perfectly Clear. Nashville Connections Jewel's personal odyssey, partly chronicled on one of the best selling debut albums of all time, the twelve-time platinum Pieces of You, comes full circle with her forthcoming country album, Perfectly Clear, the debut release on newly launched Nashville-based independent label The Valory Music Co. Jewel is set apart her whole career for not only singing, but writing all her songs, and this album is no exception. "I've been writing country songs my whole career; some of the songs on this record date back to when I was 18 years old. I've been hanging on to them until now. They were meant for a record like this one." The record's first single "Stronger Woman" is a powerful and positive message that resonates with women of any age. Perfectly Clear is produced by Jewel and John Rich of Big and Rich fame. "Jewel is probably one of the greatest American singer-songwriters we have. It is such an honor to work with anyone of that caliber of talent," Rich says. Jewel has spent a lot of time in Nashville over the last few years, and has naturally been drawn to and accepted by the Nashville music community. "If I were discovered today, there is no doubt that I would be signed as a country artist. Songs like "You Were Meant For Me" would have been a country hit today, and not a pop hit as it was in the 90s. The genres have changed more than I feel I have," says Jewel. Average Rating:
 Rating: - Kitsch CountryI love Jewel. Always have. However, I don't find it necessary that she pick up on the cheesier aspects of country to create a new gimmick for herself. She's fine the way she is. I like the CD still, but I don't feel like adding a generic twang to your folk sound makes you a genuine country artist. Rating:  - ImprescindibleNo quisiera hacer el juego fácil de palabras de y decir que este disco es una "joya", pero ciertamente lo es. Jewel se pasea por el country y el pop en este disco con una elegancia y finura que hacen que escucharlo sea una delicia. Pocas artistas mantienen un equibrio entre calidad y lado comercial y ademas salen airosas de esa batalla. Una producción muy cuidada, unas composiciones excelentes, un disco imprescindible. Rating:  - Better than the last fewI became a Jewel fan immediately upon hearing the Pieces of You cd. I have yet to hear a cd from Jewel that matches the beauty of that cd or the range of her voice. I haven't cared for the cds that she's released since then and keep hoping for one as good as Pieces of You. This cd is the closest one to her original style although she has alot of country nuances. Her voice is clear and nice to listen to, but the songs lack the deep emotions of the first cd. All of songs are love songs but lack true ...
