2001 studio album by Jewel From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This Way is the fourth studio album by American singer-songwriter Jewel, released on November 13, 2001, by Atlantic Records. Jewel was looking for a raw, live-sounding album, leading her to be involved in the album's production.[7] The album spawned the singles "Standing Still" and "Break Me", as well as the title track, which was also featured on the soundtrack to the film Life or Something Like It. The final single, "Serve the Ego", was remixed by Hani Num and Mike Rizzo and topped the US Hot Dance Club Play chart. The album debuted at number nine on the US Billboard 200 with first-week sales of 140,000 units. The album was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) on December 17, 2001,[8] and as of June 2010, it had sold over 1.5 million copies in the United States.[9] This Way reached number six in Australia and has since been certified platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA).[10][11]
