Intuition

About Intuition

"Intuition" is a song by American pop singer-songwriter Jewel. It was released in May 2003 as the lead single from her fourth studio album, 0304. The song was written and produced by Jewel and Lester Mendez. Following the club success of "Serve the Ego", Jewel moved to a more pop-oriented sound with the release of "Intuition". The song, which strays from her usual folk style with simple acoustic guitar instrumentation, starts off with a French accordion and then experiments with dance-oriented beats with subtle urban influences, using synthesizers. The song achieved moderate success in the United States, reaching number 20 on the Billboard Hot 100. However, a number of Jewel's fans criticized her for abandoning her traditional folk style in exchange for a new pop sound. After the song was licensed to promote Schick Intuition razors, Jewel was accused of "writing a song that tells us all to resist the total marketing mentality... and then licensing that song to a consumer products company for a huge sales campaign."Despite the change in genre, the song is lyrically similar to her previous work. It has a number of references to popular culture, including mentioning celebrities such as pop star Jennifer Lopez, model Kate Moss, actor Charlie Sheen, magazines, film culture, and commercialism. more »

I'm just a simple girl
In a high tech digital world
I really try to understand
All the powers that rule this land
They say Miss J's big butt is boss
Kate Moss can't find a job
In a world of post modern fad
What was good now is bad

It's not hard to understand
Just follow this simple plan

[Chorus]
Follow your heart
Your intuition
It will lead you in the right direction
Let go of your mind
Your Intuition
Is easy to find
Just follow your heart baby

You look at me 
but you're not quite sure
Am I it or could you get more
You learn cool from magazines
You learn love from Charlie Sheen

If you want me let me know
I promise I won't say no

[Chorus]

You got something that you wantin' me to sell
Sell your sin 
Just cash in
You got something that you wantin' me to tell
You'll love me
Wait and see

If you want me
Don't play games
I promise 
It won't be in vain
Uh, uh, uh

[Chorus: x3]
