Jewel is quite an impressive singer/songwriter. Her career has yielded a number of hits, from “Foolish Games” to “Hands” to “Who Will Save Your Soul”. Outside of her songwriting prowess, her unique vocal style is what initially attracted many longtime fans. She can sound girlish and sweet as well as deep and powerful; and she incorporated yodeling into many of her live performances and recorded tracks.
