When I listened to Hope I felt like maybe I could've been listening to pre-Hollywood Jewel. Several things contributed to this feeling. First, Hope's voice definitely has a Jewel-esque feel to it when she reaches for the higher notes: it gets deeper, fuller while never losing the pitch.
The lyrics and the bare-bones feel to Hope's stage presence really made it feel like there was this open heart telling us things it had heretofore kept to itself. Jewel has, as we all know, moved on from her early style, but Hope is still pure in her desire to tell us what she has to say, without being flashy about it.
