What about, Goodbye Alice in Wonderland by Jewel?
Looking at this person's list, I would have to guess he or she wasn't lining up to purchase the new Jewel album. :) Though my opinion on it, it will grace the soundtracks of romantic comedy movies for years to come.
Although I wasn't lining up to buy the new Jewel album, I have heard that it's quite good so I'm certainly not opposed to hearing it. I've actually dug some of her previous stuff, so who knows, maybe I would enjoy it. While I'm not going to go out of my way to find or purchase it, if it falls into my hands I'll surely let you know my feelings.
I highly recommend Ys by Joanna Newsom for this list. I think it's probably the best album of the year so far. Return To Cookie Mountain challenges...
