Ok who is back here for the 50th time? I love this so much.
I think this is my 137th. Just a guesstimate
35tg
Me too. I love watching the faces of everyone. It’s so pure
I am
I have watched this for many years.
Love it every time I play it.
Yeah, love these kinds of wholesome pranks.
I come back to this video pretty often. It's just so wholesome, and good. Anything like that in this fucked up world we live in, is a plus to me.
Says the person with "Dexter's Kill Room" as his avatar ;-)
@@JB-ti7bl Haha ha .. I'm an old fart, 63 but I get that .. Dexter, and he's concerned about thsi messed up world .. haha
Me too
@@JB-ti7bl Lol Hey, none of us are perfect. 😉
Fun fact: There were both Republicans and Democrats in this bar that night. This kind of thing still used to happen in 2010.
Jewel has this ability to make you cry for joy for no reason. Amazing talent.
I got a little misty too - lol
I feel that way too 🥲
Lyrics & Emotions backed up with true grit, transparency & no complaining.
Beautiful Resilient Grit.
Lovely vid
Fun
I confessed to crying in that exact way, some time ago. LOL with tears of joy and laughs
35 year old man who has always loved Jewels music seeing and hearing this for the first time... Yes, I'm crying. Absolutely beautiful!
i remember watching this video when it came out. i loved it then and now almost 12 years later i still love it just as much. jewel is an actual treasure of humanity and i will forever be a fan.
funny or die needs to do more videos like this!
1st time seeing this video, I'm not a huge fan of Jewel but I know of her and a few of her songs and this video was randomly in my YT feed. Glad I watched it because it makes you feel good out of nowhere.
I come back to this video all the time lol it’s a classic.
...isn't everybody a treasure?
@@dopeytripod hard no.
She got the audience love without the reputation, major production setup, or advertising. That's how you know she's a real one.
She came from my home town San Diego. Just before she got a record deal she was on a major local radio station to sing and play acoustic guitar live on air.
Needless to say she was great and stood out high and above everyone else. And she wasn't even a polished pro yet.
@@johnbeckwith1361 her family is on the show Alaska the last frontier. Her dad is Atz Lee and her uncle Atz Lee that's on Discovery Channel
@@shaunmichael2503 Yep. She grew up about as out in the sticks as you can get. Good ol' Alaskan wilderness.
For real. Looks like Jewel could have made it no matter what. Of course she had been singing that song for like 13 years. That is a bit of practice. Also, it was inaccurate of that woman to call her ugly! I also can't help but cry at this video because everything was so much better 11 years ago. Biden is the worst. People who were 10 or 15 at the time of that video are the worst.
she is real because she came back into the place as here self and brought joy and unity to the people. and the peoples reaction is pure and real that is what being a real human is all about.
10 years on and people chanting "Karen! Karen!" has taken on a whole new meaning.
XD
Lol. So true.
Dude I was just thinking the same thing lol
Lol
I've been shouting "Smollett Smollett" at the media's
Love how people tell her she's ugly but it's okay because she can sing.
I actually thought she was gorgeous with the fake nose and glasses.
I would easily go out with Karen,
um Jewel also.
People are stupid, she is cute as Karen and Jewel.
@@n9nf8cesyes she was so so cute as Karen, I had a little crush 😭
Yeah as an older white man I was embarrassed by the guy commenting that she was homely first and then sexy after she sang well...neither is anywhere near appropriate for him to say outloud never mind on camera...I imagine he was sufficiently humiliated later though...you'd hope anyway...most guys would be thrilled to be there to witness it and know better than to objectify her like that...on behalf of all men...please accept our sincere apology.
I seem to come back to this video every year or so. Never fails to make me happy.
Same. I seem to watch it every couple years.
Ditto.
Jewel was perfect for this gag. She performed in a LOT of coffeehouses before she made it big, so this probably felt just like home to her. And frankly, a lot of other stars probably don't have her chops to do this live thing in a crappy little karaoke bar with bad audio, loud crowd, etc. and still blow folks away. She is the bomb.
It’s cause love is love…hard to fake
More specifically, she performed at one coffee shop over and over again.
Great take.
I'm interviewed at about 3:04. What a great idea to have her do this
@@Lonstermash ok wolverine
I've already seen this many times, but in August of 2019, RUclips decided I needed to watch it again. They weren't wrong.
I’m glad they did! It was my first time watching! This is way cool!
Same here. I've seen it several times. It never gets old. Glad it showed up on my recommended videos today.
Civil Villain ha! I know!
Ditto. It's my favorite Funny or Die bit that I've rewatched a dozen or more times over the years and for some reason RUclips recommended it to me today.
... Of course I had to watch it again ... and get all blurry eyed , again, when Jewel takes the stage as herself and reminisces about her final song.
Back in September.
How can you not love Jewel? She is so appropriately named.
The girls reaction at 4:03 perfectly illustrates the pure, raw power of Jewels vocals.
You wanna hear a tune that REALLY projects her emotional tie in to her vocals?
Look up “daddy” live from 2020,
She really lets it all hang out on that one
Yep
I wondered if maybe she had detected the ruse.
eargasm face ...
I come back and watch this video just for that face, it represents what all of us are feeling listening to it
This is what a prank should be. Everyone walks away smiling.
BEST POST of the whole video! brilliant observation and absolutely spot-on accurate! 90% of the "prank videos" on RUclips seem to be either negative, cruel, making people uncomfortable, or actually borderline harmful -- THIS on the other hand was sweet & endearing! kudos for speakin the truth
TrickWithAKnife "this is what a prank should be, everyone walks away smiling" whatever snowflake . Pranks usually do that dumbass
fezbot100 “I’m going to grease the floor and call my girlfriend so she comes in slides and crashes Into a wall!!!” Great pranks.
Morons like to use the term snowflake as if to say "you're dumb for caring about other people's feelings." It makes it immediately clear that you're dealing with an entitled narcissist that you no longer need to concern yourself with. Thanks fezbot100. Now we know.
Actually, quite a few RUclips pranks are mean-spirited and some are straight-up assault.
I love the people who are looking at Jewel and singing with her rather than looking at her through their phone cameras and so not enjoying the moment.
It is really depressing seeing this at concerts. Just enjoy the moment, and have fun. Don't worry about the crappy ass footage your phone will take.
She won The Masked Singer in the Spring 2022 edition. She even "disguised" her voice by singing in different styles and tones...but STILL won!
Is that why we're watching this video in 2022?
She fooled me for a while with the fake Southern accent when speaking, but after a couple performances that voice was unmistakable.
Queen of hearts
....Um, no, idiot. We are watching this video in 2022 because 2022 is one of the infinite number of years that exists after 1997 or whenever Jewel became famous.
It's November 2022 now and this video has no doubt aged very well. Jewel is timeless!
11 years later and I still love this clip. Jewel has such a gorgeous voice.
Yep
Ditto....She's the best...love her voice...
What's Jewel's @?
it would be funny if they tried in in 2021 and no one would know who she is
I watch this couple times a year.. for years
Somewhere there's a couple guys that talk about the time they were so drunk they thought they saw Jewel at the bar.
GeneralChangOfDanang lol
😂😂😂
GeneralChangOfDanang lol maybe 1 or 2 at most might actually do that I'm sure some of them were feeling no pain
GeneralChangOfDanang
Hey leave me out of this
No worries Mate. Hey Buddercup. Keep on dancing
I saw Jewel in concert in '99. I was brought to tears, and I didn't even want to go to the concert (my roommate bought an extra ticket). I became a fan when I saw her live that night. She was absolutely the most magnetic entertainer I've seen IRL, and I've seen a good bit!
That's when you know they're the real deal. I had a similar experience in 2014 when I saw Soundgarden at RedRocks. I will never forget how much more amazing Criss Cornell's singing was live. I would go see Jewel in a heartbeat for that reason. And I might have had a little crush on her since I was 11 in 1996. lol
I Love this gag...
Watch it over and over.
Love Jewel also.
Super talent that's very humble...🇺🇲❤️😘
"That girl is really good. She shouldn't be here." lol
I've been watching this video for 9 years and I still love it.
Jewel was great, a nice treat for the fans
Perfect!
I saw this for the first time in 2010 too. I've never been a Jewel fan. But listening to those two songs she sang made the hair on the back of my neck stand up. It still happens today 9 years later.
Just to prove that comment was true, I'm back again a year later. And I still love it.
Seriously one of the greatest things ever put on camera. That single night is a core memory for every one of them.
I worked security at a Karaoke bar in my early 20’s and it’s probably the most fun I ever had in my life.
People felt and showed genuine joy and excitement when someone stepped on stage, broke out of their shell and showed their singing chops.
Smiles all around.
I've watched this at least 15 times and it never gets old.
If you like this you should check out the undercover Adele thing that BBC did
Just came back here again as well, still so good
How is it possible for someone to song that good LIVE 😱😱
@@tristan7844 Some unique people just song beautifully...
I think i've watched this at least 50 times by now.
I come back to this video every so often for a decade now. I don't know why it brings me so much joy.
I just commented the same!
Because Jewel is fucking awesome
Same for me. The joy all those people felt is palpable. Jewel is humble and awesome
Music can bring people together and make them truly happy. That old man running off at the end was like a little kid. You could literally hear the camera man smiling as he spoke. Music is awesome like that.
Me, too
I'm revisiting this - it makes me cry and laugh at the same time - I LOVED Jewel since her first record - so funny those who didn't put 2 & 2 together and realize Karen was Jewel .....
Once a young woman worked as an office assistant in our NYC office while she was waiting to make it big on Broadway. One Christmas we had a karaoke party and she just blew everyone's socks off because she was so incredible. She made the hair on the back of my neck stand up. We made her sing every song...no one else was allowed to get on stage after she sang! She got a job as a backup singer for a show soon after that and left the company. Unfortunately, I don't think she ever did "make it big," but it was just astonishing to hear her then.
It’s true even back-ups have been known to make it big. Notable examples are Mariah Carey, Judith Hill, Lizzo and Heather Morris.
She did find a break in the country music scene. She’s one of the best selling artists - Shania Twain
Some people truly have the gift to move us with their voices. Sadly its not the best that make it to the top.
She doesn't have to make it "big". If she can ear a living doing what she loves, I can assure you...she will feel rich.
@@ReactionShot Great comment! in today's world specially in music you can develop a fan base right here on youtube without the "industry" meddling with your talent or steering you into any type of divisive social perspectives just to be published.
The people in the club are so encouraging and not obnoxious, they are so cool
That's San Diego for the most part.
If that is how SD is I am moving there!! People in Ohio are so damn hateful. It's a terrible place to live.
You should see Detroit.... gun , gun, knife, gun..... knife.... gun....
TrustNone35 Gas Lamp is San Diego is a nice, safe place to have fun. Unless you're wearing any LA Raiders gear... then you're ass is going into the paddy wagon the moment you sneeze too loud. Yes, the SD police park paddy wagon's downtown.
BloodofPatriots san Diego is not near as safe as where jewel grew up and it has natural predators
You know when you're a star because you can go in to a bar as an "unknown" and rock the crowd. That's star power.
the rest of you hang your heads in shame!
@Q Anon 2:10 ya derp
@Q Anon wat. dude. are ya dense? that's while she was "Karen." Why would anyone call Karen, Jewel? That's the entire point of this entire vid.
@Q Anon because she's in prosthetics in a dive karaoke bar and her name is Karen? Your analogy is just out there. But w/ a name of Q Anon, I shouldn't really expect much. Good luck with all that.
I actually disagree. I think it's the opposite. You know it's not star power, but actual talent when you can go in as a homely unknown and still rock the bar.
This has to be one of the best surprise gigs of all time. A talent of her level showing up to a Karaoke Bar to play a prank on the locals speaks volumes of her character.
I love Jewels story and how she started. I agree they loved her without knowing who she was, that's what separates the real ones from the wannabes.
This needs to be turned into a series.
None of that Lip Sync Battle bullshit.
Sarah Benton lip sync battles was good at first, now it's annoying as hell. They try too hard
genius, you should work in TV
Its already a series. See The Office.
There needs to be more "undercover" videos like this.
yes
Deavon Reye I totally fully agree
I really just wanted someone to be like, "🤔🐩✋ this lady has nothing on my precious Jewel 😤😍🤗."
r/smurfingirl
Agree! Ive been on the hunt on youtube for similair scenarios, only ones i found were Miley and Christina with jimmy fellon in the nyc subway. NYC busks or something like that. Both of them don't need autotune.
13 years later and this is still one of the best Funny or Die videos of all time. Still gets me, Jewel is a god dam legend.
The fact that someone told that woman she only sang at Christmas parties, that was EXCELLENT attention to detail!!!
I'm stumbling on this 10 years later, and it is so freaking great.
for real...praise be the algorithm
@@Scottingham praise be. Praise be.
what do you mean 10 years.
MOTHER OF GOD ITS 2020
Wow me to
Holly F**** its 2020, damn it I'm old.
Years later this is still the best undercover artist doing music that's been done. Jewel was the freaking best.
dude, i cry every damn time!! its pathetic!! lol
Agreed! Can you recommend other good ones you saw
@@balhaB108S Only the ones based on others: "Uncle Drew," for example. As far as I know, this was the first--the foundation of the idea (not of the prank, but of the prank in makeup and prosthetics).
Her on Joe Rogan has to be his top 10 interviews ever! How she was homeless, dying in her car outside a hospital when they refused her treatment because she had no money. A good hearted doctor came out to draw blood every few hours and eventually saved her life. They are friends to this day.❤️❤️❤️❤️
It wasn't on Joe Rogan but I heard Jewel talk about that incident, too. She was suffering from lead poisoning and would've died if not for the doctor's intervention if I'm not mistaken
My father was part owner of a night club in Chattanooga and this girl randomly came in one day, said she was passing through between Nashville and Altanta and asked if she could open for the local band that was playing that night for $100. She played a couple of songs and he was like sure! Year or two later, he hears Jewel on the radio and went and dug through a big box of demo cassettes people had left and sure enough, it was her! He has a lot of stories of bands playing before they were big (Hootie, DMB, the list goes on), but this was always his favorite "before they were stars" encounter.
@@RENVOVR that’s amazing!! Ty for sharing
For some odd reason I tear up when she hits those notes. I love her ❤️
"For some odd reason" ???
No.. i'ts just that you don't know the reason
I'm 49, I've been a musician since i was 14
I've been singing for the last probably 4 or 5 years
when you sing and play you understand a few things about music and here are the basics
- Music Conveys a message and more importantly A MEANING
- This meaning can be different to us all
- The communication medium that it uses is EMOTION
You get confused because you think it's the words, it's not the words, it plays on your emotions
Now jewel's songs deal with what ????
Love, Passion , Despair
Life experiences that we can all relate to (TAKE NOTE.... WE CAN RELATE)
Then of course you can song structure and lyrics, this is intended by design
but then you have Notes
POINT IN FACT
"For some odd reason I tear up when she hits those notes"
Notice you don't need to tell us which notes
See, if you were here with me right now i could make you tear up , i could give you a vocal example of a lower register voice singing a certain line and nothing would happen
then i could sing the same thing again (slightly tweaked) and in a higher register
and you would feel heart tremors and if i continued you'd tear up
the trick is. I'm drawing emotion out of you
Part ofit has to do with the song and nothing more and art
another part has to do with Positive emotional association for the purpose of selling records
SEE HOW THAT WORKS ?
You cry at the high notes because there are certain notes that sound more pleasing
than other notes, it's just that simple
and then of course, the song builds you UP TO THAT NOTE emotionally
thats' why you cry
and since jewel drew the emotion out of you
and it was a beautiful emotion
YOU THEN RESPOND LIKE THIS...... I love her ❤
See how that works
Now you understand why you cry when you don't understand why your'e crying
it's because OUR SUBCONCIOUS UNDERSTANDS
but our consious mind is like..... why the fuck am i crying all of a sudden
well.. that's why
Music is an emotion that carries a message, it's that simple
and you have no control over it
@@martinkuliza very articulated reply. Thank you kindly.
@@woodey028
You're welcome
but yeah, if you ever get a chance to take music lessons and you do it ... say.. for approx 6 months You literally can get to a point where you hit a note for the first time and you make yourself cry
and.. it sucks, because hightened emotion kills the tone and delivery of the note
so singing is both about ability and ... You have to remember (at the same time)
to sing the note beautifully, To feel the music
BUT... NOT TO GET CARRIED AWAY EMOTIONALLY , that's probably the hardest part
so when you're doing Foolish Games
and you get to
Theeese Fooolish games
Are.... Tearing me apart
it's hard not to cry while singing
so there's that as well
it's like, you do it for the first time
and (as you said) you cry but you don't know why, at the same time Your sad, but You're happy and proud of yourself for hitting the note but... again, Your'e sad LOL
so.. you don't know how to feel
and voila, we end up back to the same point
you cry and you don't know why
LOL.. Weird Huh
After a while you understand it and you learn how to get into the song while PARTIALLy ignoring the emotion
then it's a question of.. How do you sing without emotion
That's another can of worms
The 90s were f****** beautiful.
And the 2000's came and ruined music, the dating scene, and society all together. Women we're a lot cooler to talk to as well. Not anymore, everyone scandalous now..
They really were Joe. It was the end of a lifestyle. The last of reality and real love
Thomas I agree
Dustin Kaglic your right
Fuck yes they were.
Jewel saved my life many yrs ago, my wife left me on Christmas morning 2001, I was lost so I decided to drink alcohol till I passed out and would eventually fall into a coma yeah that much booze. I had the radio on and I heard a voice it was Jewels voice, it brought me around and I went on line to find all her works and songs. Now 12 yrs later I am successful and content with my life. A very big turn around for me.I have many friends and associates her voice really did save me. I am eternally grateful. Thank-You Jewel
that's really inspiration. I have a story as well that I wont ever forget about the you were meant for me song. mine was a home invasion robbery, I was tied up beaten, and threatened to be killed, That was one of the songs that played on the radio... even through the ordeal I had enough sense to keep track of the number of songs played so I could have an idea of how long they were inside my house
MYdjANDkaraoke damn. I am sorry you went through that.
I've always gotten the impression that Jewel is a very down to earth and humble person. This video confirms that 100%! Just the girl next door. What a show that crowd got!
She grew up on that homestead featured in Alaska: The final frontier. Atz daughter. Crazy cuz she was on one episode and I did not put 2 and 2 together.
Met her a number of times waaaaay back. She's such an awesome person!!! I was soooooooooooo stoked the first time I heard her on the radio!😁😁
Here it is 20 years later,and Jewel still sends shivers down my spine with her voice,attitude,and looks...
+Andy P.Yes it does,and the older you get the faster it flies by...Have fun while you can!! LOL!!
FJ80Coop
Every time I see her on anything I go away feeling better about things and I'm sure I must have a little smile on my old puss.
Standing still was her best song
A true Artiste and hot to boot.
Why have they not done another one of these. This is fucking genius. If this was a show on TV I would tune in every fucking week.
+kcin228 No kidding. Allen Funt ran with Candid Camera for several seasons with hidden camera gags. Need a job??
+kcin228 Me Too!!! F@#k yeah!!!
+kcin228 right on
same
me 2 !!
I can’t believe how many times I have come back to watch this video. It looked like such a genuine absolute blast of a time!!!
The world needs more of this,its bloody great clean fun and everyone enjoying each others company. All the very best from Australia.
Definitely need to do more videos like this with different singers in different karaoke places.
+Dean Winchester Shania Twain did one.
+treestump flyer True... But she wasn't in disguise...
+Dean Winchester bad one from vanessa amorosi, in my opinion

They did one with Bob Dylan. He lost. Well, he lost and he was booed off the stage.
Girls face @4:03 always has me dying when jewel hits that high note 😂😂😂😂
That really was awesome.
She saw God 😂
You mean when Karen hit that high note, dont you? :P
Absolutely LOVE the old man and just how happy he is with everything.
The audience interviews really make this video stand the test of time. I’m fascinated by the old guy’s T-shirt and love the fact that he thought Karen was possibly slightly better than Jewel.
Jewel is one of the very few people in the singing industry that can sound that good in person
That's because she cut her teeth in coffee shops and little dive bars.
Yes, I've heard her live sitting 2 rows away. She's that good.
Kevin Roberts was.
She’s a great talent. Aaron Lewis is really solid solo too. Great video, love this.
Dylan Hale dude she still has a fantastic set of pipes. Hell, she's on tour this year.
This really needs to be a series.
I third that.
I fourth that.
anonymous anon I'm fifth! LOL! jk
Fifties fail. Fifth degree cancerAIDS for you.
+SweetZombiJesus The could call it Undercover Karaoke.
"it was sweet, the whole bar was singing along" that's because you're a fucking legend Jewel.
This has to be the best karaoke stunt ever she really did a great job and looked like she had a ball doing it
Who's here after Jewel's appearance on JRE?
Everyone from here on out lol
@@jjfletcher1366 If you are you have failed. This has been on youtube for 11 years.
@@dslims1 lol. So I have failed because something didn’t strike my interest until a few days ago? Man you must know everything g about everything 😘
She's on JRE 5 days ago?
@@GardoGamer according to DSLIMS1 you are too a failure. How do you not know everything about everything. Sheeeeesh
5:28 "JEWEL!!" so much passion behind that man's voice
Saw Jewel open up for John Hiatt in Chicago in the early, mid 90s. New as soon as she began to sing she would be a star. Her yodeling was phenomenal.
Been a fan of her's since goodness knows,this is one of my favourite video's going,keep coming back just because I can,2023 and still l smile, Cheers from New Zealand,
The guy who screamed “JEWEL” in the background was the funniest part of the video.
The girl at 4:06 with the literal jaw drop cracked me up.
no auto tune, no lip sync... she sounds exactly like she does on her albums. I've had the chance to meet her on several occasions and she is one of the nicest and down to earth persons you will ever meet, she probably had just as much fun as the crowd did.
We had a blast that night! I got interviewed at 3:04
If I could marry a celebrity, it'd be Jewel.
@@Lonstermash Did you shave your head soon after, or still hanging on?
@@paulh2282 huh????
@@Lonstermash Your reply leads me to believe the answer is no. It's clear to everyone else. Sorry to hear.
Jewel was my comfort music in high school ❤ helped me through some rough times.
Wooow!!! I barely forgot about this fabulous singer. I can still remember when I was about 15 years old she was in the radio and I like how she sings ,so I bought her album, but then years passed by and, suddenly she disappeared from the media. I mean that’s OK but she have a pretty great voice, though!!!
Jewel is from a time when the live version sounds as good or better than the radio version.
Yes, no auto-tune. The better-off folks had Pentium 233 MHz MMX CPU's and the rest of us had something like a Cyrix P150. Internet access was over phone lines. SoundBlaster 16 sound-cards were overpriced. Constant AOL floppy disks in the mail. Some people had a primary graphics card and a 3DFx Voodoo 2 secondary graphics card. Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) monitors. There was no chance of auto-tune in these days. Doom 2 and Quake 1, yes. Auto-tune, no.
Sorry to pull the band aid off guys auto tune has been around for a real long time, it came from old 70 funk bands wanting to sound electronic.
THAT BEING SAID she is amazing and obviously doesn't need it. Auto tune has become a "crutch" as of the past 15 years sadly.
@@codyeveryday5432 How on earth did they do auto-tune in the 70's when computers were so primitive?
@@YouGotsTheRabies they didn't do it on Earth, most 70s funk was done in space.(sry for the dad joke)
It wasn't on computers it was done analog, so I guess I was wrong. It wasn't auto tune, it was post analog tune.
@@YouGotsTheRabies when you think about it, voice boxes are assisted tuning. So you could say "do you feel like we do" has pitch correction and that was 1973.
Out of the tens of thousands of videos I’ve watched in the last decade this is one of my favorites.
Edit: to elaborate.. when she performs as Karen it’s one of the purest things I’ve ever seen. She can be her true self and the crowd can respond to the quality of her performance without the baggage of being entertained by a famous professional. Her star power was too overwhelming for them to enjoy the show as Jewel. And they nailed it with the Karen cheering section which allowed them to set this up flawlessly. It was perfect.
I think that's right. Been trying to figure out why this makes me cry every time I watch it. From "okay today" to "butts" I feel it swell every time.
Karen derives from the name meaning *pure. I was born Karen. Such a shame it's a hated and ridiculed name these days.
@@randomyoutubeperson6954 But it's not your fault. Carry your head high and keep on movin' on.
It also DOES give you a platform of your own from which to voice your own views on...whatever. People are almost forced to listen to you, just because they so easily ridicule "her." Work it. You got it.
You should check out also when adele undercovers with her fans
Well, it should have been a dead giveaway is retrospect. The way she preforms her songs is that of elite seasoned performer. She completely shuts down the room and demands everyone's attention with her voice alone.
whenever I want to feel good on a late weekend night, I come back to this video. Absolute classic.
I watch this video alot and I still can't get enough of this video. The people are out on probably a weekend night to have a good time and thus not a rowdy time, and Jewel displays the is down to earth at this bar. I absolutely love this video! A very uplifting video for me!
It was actually a MONDAY night, believe it or not? I was there (interviewed at 3:04). There are about twice as many people there on a weekend night! What an amazing moment
2010: When the crowd actually cheered for the name Karen. It was a whole different world back then.
I know right?
L.O.L. that is like a great comment.
They probably still do in SF, LA, DC and NY.
Is like a whole other dimension
Help a brother out, what do “crowd” and “cheer” mean?
I could watch this 1000 times! It's 2019 and I'm still here!
my first time watching. Aug 10, 2019.
turblown my first time, I’ll be back sometime for sure
Can’t help but watch this video every time I stumble across it. That one girls jaw drop and total disbelief when Karen hits the high notes always cracks me up.
Everytime I see this video I just wish we had a full length version of her singing.
I've watched it many times and still, when Jewel hits the note and 4:00 that she's performed all her life, I'm still so proud of Karen.
Is it just me or is Jewel very beautiful?....She looks like she is made of sunlight.
She does indeed sir
She's perfect
Back off. I thought she was beautiful before she fixed her teeth. lol you are right though.
body we all are star stuff
WizardBalls she is so beautiful and she has an amazing voice, god bless everyone ♥️🙏🏼
That was awesome on SO many levels. Don’t judge a book by it’s cover, She was TOO authentic to NOT catch on lastly - and most importantly, her doing this was beyond GREAT for the fans and HER fans. Lastly, I love her backstory and her dad, who lives off the grid (with tech). God blessed the world with both of them.
Been a Jewel fan since I was 16...
At age 45, and a karaoke host of 25 years, this is still one of my favourite videos on the internet.
I would have not been fooled. I know that voice anywhere.
holy sh*t that 4:00 leap and register change and hold was f*ckin awesome.
Only a terrific woman from humble beginnings would easily agree to do this and share her amazing talent for free with others
This is one of those videos that I keep coming back to because it always makes me feel so good.
You were meant for me is one of the best written songs of all time it tells a story in order and everything is where it should be
This is a great, funny, video. But it's also a great example of how natural talent always shines through. Even dressed up as a frumpy frozen foods salesperson, she still shines.
The best part is 4:03 - 4:07 when Jewel hits the high note a girl in the crowd has this dazed look on her face, mouth hanging open. This is what it means when someone says " It blew My Mind ".
It made my cry.
Are you "Serious" right now????
In "Foolish Games"
She was shitting herself cause she was up next.
Jewel as a Sarah Palin cosplay/expy namedKaren complete with the Beehive do and the prosthetic nose 😆🤣
I love how they both competed on The Masked Singer (also Jewel and Palin's daughter Bristol both competed on DWTS in separate seasons). I wonder if they've ever met
This proves that the REALLY TALENTED among us are just light years better than regular people. And the beautifully talented are the brightest Superstars!
The man in the end running away like he's five and just saw the coolest thing ever to tell his friends!
..and to tell them what they Already know
Anyone who has seen and heard Jewel sing live can testify that camera and audio recordings cannot capture the magic of her live voice especially that note on Foolish Games...brings tears to your eyes.
I heard jaws hitting the floor when she sang THAT note.
Anyone sitting on the fence as to her true identity after that needs their hearing attended to.
There is only one Jewel.
Her genre of music isn't close to my heart but I had all of her early albums and played them endlessly.
Absolutely. I was there that night (interviewed at about 3:04) and couldn't believe how great she sounded
@@Lonstermash Oh wow.. that is you! Can’t even imagine what it was like to experience that live ❤
That's real music for real people - the way it's meant to be. Thanks Jewel for making it happen.
I've seen this like 4times throughout the years. I come by here every now and again. 😌
I love when I see professionals do these things. It really lets the fans know that they are real people and good hearted people.
Not to mention.... really talented; it's not all just autotune and lip synch.
"Get off the stage Jewel. Bring back Karen. LOL
LOL
Jewel was my favorite for the first 5 years she came out. We are about the same age. Life took me away from music and I haven’t heard her for a while and this video has tears streaming down my face. I love the sincerity and passion In her words and voice. There’s so much more I can’t describe. Thank you for this. I think I’ll meet her one day, maybe when we’re 80.
35 year old man who has always loved Jewels music seeing and hearing this for the first time... I'm in tears. Absolutely beautiful!
Jewel still kills it. So damn beautiful and that voice blasts pure emotion.
Oh jewel !! Your voice still gives me goosebumps as it did when I first heard your amazing voice xx from Australia 🇦🇺
My first time to see this. I love Jewel and the impact her voice has on people! 💖 🎶
I've watched this a few times over the past couple years (revisited)... this was so well produced and put together. Jewel was such a good sport and this ended up being such an awesome production...
Of course they knew the words… they were all grads of the late 90s… we all know the words! Immediately, I’m back to that time. So nostalgic. I would have loved to be there! 💕💕Love you, Jewel!
Jeez, it's a karaoke joint. The words are all up on the screen.
@@jimwerther , cranky much? Technically, the words are up for the performer, but this is not worth arguing. I hope the following days were better for you.
@@doribellan
Lady, I'm not the old cranky one here. Go back to the cats.
Jewel is truly a jewel in every respect : love her music and character.
One of the coolest, most humble and down-to-earth chicks on the planet. She makes the world a better place with her words and deeds. May she reign forever: )
I listened to her on Rogan and she had to be one of the coolest and most interesting people I’ve ever listened to.
@@The_Rut_Funnel me too watched her and joe rogan talk for 3 hour 42 minutes on joe podcast. incredible story!
I'm starting to lose count at how many times I have come back to this video, for that "feel good" moment that I get from this ...now I'm off to watch Jewel's video where she sang at Woodstock 99'.
