| yah...Jewels first album was amazing! it's still my number one favorite! It's too bad she had to conform to "whats kewl" for her latest stuff..like common she did the water scene!! i wanted to cry...her music has no depth anymore...Anyways Angel Standing by is the perfect lullaby! its soothing | |

| i like this song a lot. i like how she starts out the song playing in harmonics, and the range in which she's using her voice. i really like the way it sounds much like a lullaby. | |
