This is Jewel's second attempt at the dance market and it is also her second number one dance track. The song produced with Shakira's producer Lester Mendez finds the folk singer singing about trusting ones self to get by. "Intuition" comes in 8 mixes that go from awesome to good. The first remixer up is Todd Terry and in his usual fashion he houses up the song with a deep bassline and keys to boot. The In House Mix(5:41) and Tee's Freeze Mix(5:39) are straight ahead house vocal mixes. His Tee's Kat Mix(5:39) is a good dub. The second remixer up are the duo of Gabriel & Dresden who did a great job of mixing "Serve The Ego" last year. Their 1st mix is the Hi-Tek Digital Mix(10:50) that is not unlike those Junior Vasquez marathon mixes he did for Dolly Parton "Peace Train" and K.D. Lang "Theme from The Valley Of The Dolls" in which the music begins hard and fast only to drop out under the vocals to then pick up after the vocals are done. It worked for Junior and it does on this mix too. Their second mix -Rhythm Club Mix(8:17) takes out the beginning fast part and kicks in to the hip hop style beat of the other mix and then kicks up to the faster beat later. This mix would have worked better than to just keep the hip hop beat for the entire song- maybe just an extended original mix and that would be that. The Lo-Tek Analog Dub Mix(10:30) is upbeat house all the way. The next mixer is Markus Shulz's Coldharbor Mix(10:21) which is probably the mix most clubs are playing. Not that much vocals but an great mix . The final mixer is Ford and his Extended Mix(7:17) is my favorite mix here . Flat out trance this mix gives Jewel the drama that the other mixes don't have. All keys and loops work the song over the top . Just a beautiful mix. Well Done!!! So hopefully Atlantic will continue to release more remixes from Jewel because her growing club fans will want more.

This single displays Jewel's continued evolution. It contains the meaningful lyrics we have come to expect from her but expressed in a fun and creative way. Way to go Jewel!

i cannot believe that the lovely Jewel would ever sound like this, really this verges on the insane. you have got to hear this to believe it and even then you cannot think it is Jewel. it thuds so deep you will have to monitor your bass to save your speakers exploding. it is already massive in clubland, i've heard it all over the place but i don't think that the clubbers really know who it is and what she has done before, but they don't care, it has such a good beat. this is very very deep house and it works surprisingly well with Jewel's voice.

also check out Jewel's album 0304 too. it isn't as heavy as this single but has some fab tracks on it and it is certainly her best album so far.

give give Intuition a go, i bet you won't beleive it neither! you will be dancing your **** off in no time! never thought i would ever say that about Jewel!! it is FAB!!

Plain and simple. For those of you that are calling Jewel's new style a 'sell out' and fluffy pop, you have missed the purpose of this new single, new album, and the video entirely. Listen to the lyrics very carefully. Jewel is making keen political and societal statements. Is this really so different?????? Jewel has been doing this since the very beginning. She is using 'INTUITION' and the video to mock the entertainment industry as a whole and the way society typically responds to it. The video displays Jewel - The Actress. She is not buying into fluffy, mindless pop, she's mocking it! All of this, plus she has decided to go rhythmic with her music. So what????? It sounds great and is grabbing the attention of the public. The mixes are excellent as well and worth the cost of this cd. Those who really listen to the lyrics will understand Jewel's message clearly. Meaningful lyrics with fun music. What's wrong with that??
