Singer Jewel seems to have given up her aspirations from her last album to be another Britney Spears and has almost gone back to her roots with her new CD, “Good-bye Alice in Wonderland.”

Jewel began her career with her folky-popish CD “Pieces of Me.” Up until her last album, that was pretty much how she stayed. But then there was a new Jewel who was no longer a girl with a guitar asking who will save our souls, but instead was a girl showing some leg, whose soul needed to be saved.

Luckily for Jewel fans, the old Jewel we all remember has returned with her new CD. “Good-bye Alice in Wonderland” is a collection of Jewel songs that die-hard fans will love. However, the CD is missing the pop hook that made her debut CD, and then her sophomore CD so wonderful, which means non-Jewel fans may not find it as exciting.

The songs chronicle her journey from her home of Alaska to her move to California before she was so famous. However, the CD does not have any songs that will be monster hits like “Who Will Save Your Soul” and “You Were Meant For Me,” but it does showcase Jewel’s amazing songwriting skills with songs like “Again and Again.”
