Those you posted are the kind of lyrics 'Perfectly Clear' is filled with. I don't know what it is with Jewel, her lyrics can be wonderfully insightful but also sickeningly insipid.

Did you know that she wrote U+Me+LOVE for Holly Valance and she ended up doing it herself becase a) she liked how it turned out or b) Holly Valance turned it down?!

Can you believe that?! Jesus, if Holly Valance is turning your songs down you're in trouble. Then again, if you think songs like that should be on your own album instead then you're in trouble too!
