Jewel - Ave Maria

[@blahblahblahaha]

She blows me away. Not just her incredible range, versatility, and emotional resonance but the way she physically looks so at peace belting those powerful notes. It’s like it’s nothing for her just a natural expulsion of her spirit.

[@Bobzebie]

I listened to this piece in grateful tears 100 times last Christmas. I was stunned by the unadorned purity of the singing, unlike any other performance of this piece I've ever heard! This is not just technical mastery, my friends. This is the full-blown artistic mastery of a mature soul that is in exquisite service to the music. Jewel, you touched my soul, and countless others, with this angelic performance! Keep putting this love into everything you do, and may you live long and well.

[@theresat9687gmail]

Yes Jewel, may you live long and true...

[@pattyyuraitis1459]

Beautifully said 🙏

[@samariad]

No matter how many times I hear this version of Ave Maria, I cry. It is beyond beautiful..and I don't even like Jewel usually but this is perfection.

[@G-grandma_Army]

Jewel is an artist who has many sounds, many ways of singing. :)

[@Presca1]

Wow, I had no idea she could sing with such range and something so classical like that - she has an amazing voice.

[@tammyrules2000]

Me either, what ever happened to her?

[@fluellenlucena4745]

She went to school to study opera under a scholarship. She can sing like this anytime. But she's a true artist. She sings and writes about things that move her and move people.

[@gumbylives1]

She is still relevant, still singing. Releasing gorgeous albums, writing books, raising her child and fighting homelessness among other things.

[@jeffbarksdale5835]

in my opinion one of the best female artist of all time period

[@kalias07]

Absolutely gorgeous. When I visited Europe there was nothing that could rival this, I am forever changed.

[@cathyshorts]

Soooooo beautiful. The voice of an angel.

[@lorraine9242]

Brings tears to my eyes. Not because it's sung by an expert. Because it is sung by true believer, with talent, heart, love and soul.

[@folomalofata-meafou8379]

Jewel is gifted. Such a unique voice & no problems hitting the high notes. Had to listen again with my eyes close,...amazing!

[@stevas6621]

Out of so many beautiful interpretations by other singers, this stands out as a true , beautiful prayer ! It comes from her soul and it touches yours.

[@tabithablalock]

It was the Holy Spirit!!!! How are you 9 months later?? Give it all to God and let him bring you to places spiritually that you have never been

[@michaelcooner4768]

There are singers , and there are musicians ; then there are artists . She is definitely in the artist category ; not just the voice and musical talent , but her writings are deep and socially meaningful . She truly was a starving artist living in her car before fame came , and is therefore definitely in touch with the 'common man' . She first caught my attention in the early 90s , when I had come to believe the era of Good popular music had passed . Thank you Jewel , for sharing your gift(s) .

[@fireballxl5328]

There are angels !

[@redcan5254]

Since today is the official "First Day" of the Christmas season (June 1, 2020) ... I thought my favorite version of Ave Maria would be appropriate ... Thank you Jewel ...

[@annettehume5082]

From the spirit and heart Perfect pitch. A master vocalist

[@ruthc8407]

Outstanding! This is one of the greatest Catholic hymns of all time.

[@acmedata]

Gives me goosebumps every time I listen to her version of this.

[@jimbarr6262]

This is the most beautiful and technically perfect rendition I have ever heard. It always moves me to tears

[@waketheoblivious]

absolutely perfect, arguably one of the finest renditions of this song ever done

[@glamberkitten]

I had no idea she could sing like an opera singer! That was incredibly beautiful!

[@wack9349]

She actually went to opera school

[@sharisp2]

She could have been an opera singer, the way she hits those high notes-incredible!

[@MakeMeLo]

She IS singing opera here.

[@wlamb9]

I had no idea Jewel could sing like this. I am floored. Hats off to you my lady, and thank you for singing this for us.

[@Lbfent2]

I went through many other renditions of this Bach/Gounod's Ave Maria before choosing Jewel's studio download. Both arrangement and singing are absolutely magnificent! I find it extremely touching.

[@jimthetrucker1]

Blown away. I have never seen Jewel perform the Christmas songs I have seen tonight. She still amazes me. Wow

[@freeb1111]

god that is so beautiful and I don't believe in god, so sweet to hear

[@bmh2004]

Wow! never expected that she has a tremendous vocal range.

[@OprechtLetterlijkBizar]

She sings it beautifully...and with the heart. Gives me goosebumps.

[@guntotinwacko]

I love this version! I remember hearing it the first time, and thinking "the soul does exist, because there's no other reason for this feeling in my chest right now".

[@amaliamiranda1732]

WOW!! I still find her version is really beautiful and it's 2015!!

[@davegeisler7802]

I still find her beautiful and it's 2021 ❤️ Jewel = Everyday Angel 😇 with a heavenly voice , for all of us to enjoy !

[@tonygreene81able]

Forgotten how beautiful Jewel is. WOW

[@FluffyRadical]

This unassuming humble woman can SING like an angel. She is so versatile and can sing anything and sing the crap out ot it. She knows who she is and stands by it. Her classical training really shows on this stellar performance.

[@stuntdriver2147]

very well done - great voice - one of the many under appreciated artists of our time.

[@astrol64]

oh my god! That was soooo beautiful!

[@MikeSPx24bj9]

I have the album version and I still (after all these years) think Jewel sings this song better than any female artist ever has.

[@hansel73]

+MikeSPx24bj9 I agree, and I'm not a Jewel fan, per se. This is just a flat-out amazing version, and O Holy Night is incredible.

[@MikeSPx24bj9]

+Tom Reynolds Yep. Her O Holy Night is incredible too, even more so how she comes down in the notes so perfectly WITHOUT the use of autotune starting at 2:48 in a different "video still " version of her audio singing it.

[@RhiannaBarr]

MikeSPx24bj9 listen to Nana Mouskouri's version...she will knock your socks off

[@musiccollector]

This is the best version of the song on the planet!!!

[@jerometuck1708]

What a fantastic singer and a real beautifull lady .

[@WoodyAZ1980]

My Dad just recently passed. I've listened to this beautiful version daily. It helps with my difficult days.

[@beautifulkat1]

Omg I got chills listening to her sing this beautiful song, Jewel has an amazing voice

[@rrinaldi9463]

"THANK YOU FOR THIS SONG." ITS UNIVERSAL IN ALL RELIGIONS FOR WHOM IT IS SANG TO. JEWEL HAS WORKED SO HARD, & HAS ACCOMPLISHED SO MUCH. THANK YOU FOR SINGING THIS SONG WITH SUCH CLASS, & NOT DISRESPECTING IT. LOL.

[@arthursoesman]

Her beautiful voice hits every part of my soul !

[@littlebirdfashion]

This girl... if there is someone who is underrated... it's her. BEAUTIFUL! The definition of womanly beauty in vocals.

[@jodiidahoianfarmgirl4728]

BRAVO ❤ You are Truly a Jewel from Alaska !!!

[@ThePerezHilton]

Jewel does not get enough credit!!!! What a voice!!!!

[@patriciaadams-rl4iz]

Omg, this a perfect performance🤗

[@debrabringenberg1137]

One of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written

[@RhiannaBarr]

JT Barbat its a Bach/Gounod piece

[@rachellewalters8111]

ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE JEWEL! 👐👏

[@mariadelurdesaverbach4942]

It is the best version of Ave Maria and itis pure talent cause who teached her was her father at Alaska! Congrats to one of the best singers in the world!

[@fs4663]

one of the best versions ever..wow!

[@navycottoncandi]

Absolutely beautiful

[@captainKbobkeeshan]

Stunning! Every time I listen to her sing this. I was rapt the first time and still am. I wish she sang more of these songs.

[@frankigoe2838]

Very nice version of my favorite Ave Maria.

[@bluesgirlsings1]

Loved it !!!! She was born to sing - she's a natural - this song is SO SO darn hard - I'm a singer and it is almost impossible to hit those high notes unless you are operatically trained. Great job, grl !!!!!!

[@RickApple]

that's the coolest thing I have seen/heard in the past three months.

[@ms.smithgamechanger1103]

🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹 What a beautiful angel's voice! So gorgeous! 🌌💖👌

[@TamjamGr88]

Jewel is the most awesome singer of all time - the notes she can sing are given to her by unseen angels ♥

[@SuperVeeUS]

I've always loved her voice. She's amazing.

[@canadagirl1973]

JMJ✝. So beautiful 🕊️! Sancta Maria, ora pro nobis 🎵! I will forever think of our Blessed Mother 💗 and my own dear little Mom✝💗 when I hear this song. Captivates the heart ❤️ and soul 🕊️. Thank you Jewel!

[@Nakadnas21]

Wow..i didn't know that Jewel could sing music like this..so nice..

[@mikeh7390]

So.....you were born yesterday?

[@MayaRaimondo]

She studied operatic voice in college. She has a strong foundation from school & from her family, especially her dad.

[@lovebug2083]

That is absolutely breathtaking! She has an amazing voice!

[@carolinewolf565]

Love her beautiful voice❤🙌🏻🎶

[@curiousgeorge555]

She's beautiful! Oh and...her rendition was great!

[@marlenesullivan3113]

PERFECTION ❤

[@charlottedrenee]

the voice of an angle.... i mean it... and the look... love her control the best she should be proud

[@loriburke7856]

Oh my gosh! What a,talent you are jewel! Always a big fan of mine.

[@andrewmctaggart7244]

Wow. Who new Jewel could sing like that. Amazing

[@pattychung]

ok seriously - how does she NOT have a grammy? music industry is so fucked up.

[@madistout5651]

I understand you I love this!!

[@Laura-nn6fl]

Yes, she is amazing. I've always heard the purity and innocence in her voice in all of her music. But, this makes it obvious to everyone. Jewel is a classically trained singer from a very well known school in Michigan. She dropped out of the program to fulfill her own musical ambitions. I love her and always have!

[@pamelagoode7499]

Beautiful. Gave me goose bumps also!

[@iluvmoviestoomuch1437]

Jewel is special! She did awesome!

[@pattyyuraitis1459]

Such an Angelic voice….🙏🌹

[@sargoth37]

This almost brings me to tears every time I hear it. what a masterpiece.

[@TheRascalFlattsfan6]

Jewel has a beautiful voice

[@CJAtlanta2]

I used to play Halo on the PC without sound and listen to Jewel, in particular this song... it was awesome, surreal and I was devastating in that game.

[@jacktburke]

This is SO BEAUTIFUL! What a voice!

[@tammynewton3671]

Wow, I have always loved Jewels voice but her sing this just shows her voice in all its glory. She is just amazing.

[@itzelleyva3986]

She sings like an angel

[@connie1035]

wow ! that was awesome Jewel. The only artist I gave much praise and respect.

[@Retrosole]

I am watching in 2017 and I'm still in awe

[@deadbird1229]

She was blessed with an incredibly versatile voice. Virtually none of her songs would lead anyone to believe she could sing like this. I saw her in concert when I was very young with my parents, and she yodeled at the beginning of the show.

[@duanemousseau]

This is beautiful. Love Jewel!

[@ArulinWhiteOwl]

Simply.... breathtaking.

[@briand69bd]

My blessed God, this young lady can sing anything ! I loved her when she first started and I love her more each song she sings !!! 💓

[@agirlhasn0name]

Shivers!!! Ahhh!! :D :D She, Celine Dion, and Elvis Presley have some of the absolute best versions of many Christmas songs ever...

[@waketheoblivious]

Exactly, the depth which the singer has experienced a particular emotion, becomes evident when they blend the words & music. She connected with the words & music perfectly to nourish the soul.

[@Wildlyfer]

I listened to other singers sing but Jewel is high up there. We sure got lucky to have her in our lifetime.

[@ManTasia99]

My favorite Ave Maria the last years.

[@davidcmusic-l6s]

Beautiful, talented and humble.

[@thirteendreams]

I was not expecting that :) Beautiful, jewel has a long career ahead of her ;)

[@Paskin1965]

This is the best recording of this song by a non operatic singer I have heard jewel is very talented such a clear voice

[@maxwellalberts7332]

A young Joan Baez! Unreal!!!!! Twenty thumbs up!!!!!

[@Marilyn-np6ls]

She not only looked like an angel when she was performing, she sounded like one!! . Interlochen should be very proud of her! Incredible arrangement and singing.

[@theresadouglaz8761]

absolutely beautiful! she has the voice of an angel.

[@musiccollector]

The best version of the alternate tune, ever! I prefer this tune.She has a dreamy voice. Wasn't a fan, but now I am! Gives me goosebumps!

[@paulefstathiou1819]

I am impressed , amazing ; I Love You Jewel 💎, always have !
