JEWEL "0304", 2008-06-15
I've been a fan of Jewel's for many years now, I'm absolutely loving her latest album "Perfectly Clear" - it's since writing a review for it and reading reviews for it and her other albums that I thought I'll have to write one for her "0304" album. br / br /I've had the album since the week it was released and I've thoroughly enjoyed it, yeah the front cover is quite 80's and the disc is bright pink, which is different to all her albums, but Jewel said she wanted to make a Pop album and that is what she did, Avril Lavigne has been criticised for the same thing over her latest album. Why is it that if the music is Pop then automatically it must be a "sell-out"? Two things that Jewel that Jewel is on a high level with is her vocals and her songwriting, and this album is no different, "Stand," "2 Find U," "Doin' Fine," "America" and "Becoming" show some of Jewel's best lyrics, so it's not as if her unique style as an artist went missing here, when an artist stays with a similar sound they get criticised for not being creative, Jewel is definitely ceative on "0304" and this isn't just a regular Pop album, Jewel has made a really great Pop here with great lyrics and great vocals. br / br /

Really bad!, 2007-10-05
Im a HUGE Jewel fan but was so dissapointed with this. There is not one song on this album that I truely like. It is overproduced and Jewel should stay well away from the pop music she has produced on this album as it does not suit her at all. If you like Jewel and want to continue to like her dont buy this album!

Enough Of Those Poor Reviews For "0304", 2007-08-28
Unlike all of Jewel's previous albums, 0304 has a new distinctive flare, that is appealling. I can understand the mixed reactions that this album created. When people think of "Jewel," they think of slow-ballad-folk-like-music. Well, I enjoyed the more up-beat, almost "club-like" music that she features in 0304. If you are a true Jewel fan, this might be disappointing, but if you have never heard anything by her before, you might be impressed. I have just purchased my second copy of this disc as I lost mine about a year ago. I have had a serious urge to hear "intuition" and "Yes U can." 4 outa 5 for me.

I like it., 2007-07-24
It is different from her earlier albums, but I like it. I have listened to it quite a few times, and am not tired of it yet. People that want all of her albums to sound like her first one need to realize how boring that would be. I count this one as being on my favorite albums list.

Brilliant, 2007-04-25
This is a masterful mix of folk and semi-techno dance. Every song is good and her voice is amazing and sexy. Lyrics include some interesting commentary from an artist who according to many critics has "nothing to say". Can be listened to over and over.
