HAPPY BIRTHDAY Jewel

Jewel Kilcher, known professionally as Jewel, is an American singer, songwriter, and musician who gained fame (in the mid-1990s) with her debut album, “Pieces of You”. Her music is often characterized by introspective lyrics, and a blend of folk, pop, and country elements.

Some of her biggest singles include “Pieces of You”, “Who Will Save Your Soul”, “Foolish Games”, and today’s song choice.
