Summary: Really bad!
Comment: 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!

Summary: Enough Of Those Poor Reviews For "0304"
Comment: 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.

Summary: I like it.
Comment: 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.

Summary: Brilliant
Comment: 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.

Summary: Jewel's Best Album
Comment: I was never a big fan of Jewel as a folk rock artist. On this album she reinvents herself as a mainstream dance and pop artist. The songs are much more fun and upbeat than her prior work. I found that to be a pleasant and refreshing surprise. It's always fun to see artists try out different styles and approaches to their music. Many of Jewel's hardcore fans have unfairly criticized her for this doing this album. Personally, I think this is her finest work.

Editorial Reviews:

Why pick on a girl for taking a chance? After experiencing flagging sales, Jewel has become proactive and given herself a cosmetic and artistic makeover. But 0304 isn't the winsome thrush's first leap into the unknown. Hiring Shakira producer Lester A. Mendez to give her solemn, folksy songs a pop sheen and some dance beats isn't as radical as starring as a Civil War widow in an Ang Lee film. Besides it's a lot more interesting to hear her squeeze her chaste, malleable soprano around an accordion solo in the futuristic namedropping fable "Intuition" or her voice a beat-driven condemnation of the George W. Bush regime on "America" to see her sashaying on the silver screen in those tight bodices and hoop skirts. Although she has changed the very structure and sound of her songs, Jewel's undeniable talent shines through. She still has a way with words and her voice is remains as pure as an Alaskan stream. --Jaan Uhelszki
