 New Jersey - Encyclopedia.WorldSearch
Fellow musician Jon Bon Jovi has also written many songs about New Jersey and even named one of his albums after it.
Musician Bruce Springsteen has sung of New Jersey life on his debut album, Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J. and in many of his most popular songs, including "Atlantic City", "Darlington County", "Freehold", "Jersey Girl" (written by Tom Waits), "Jungleland", "Spirit in the Night", and others.
It is somewhat true that some New Jersey residents who live near the Parkway or the Turnpike locate their hometowns according to their respective highway exits, though very few New Jerseyites living anywhere else in the state will do so.

With the new keyman Jordan Rudess, the band have a more symphonic sound.
Another point of comparison would be latter-day Kayak, whose music could be best described as "progressive pop." The last track, just short of 16 minutes in length, is very much in the vein of the music of their first release, and closes out the music on a high note.
Their new sound could be classified as equal parts world music, jazz, and progressive stylings, and is light years ahead of what they had done before.

 DVD Talk Forum - 2002 Best New Artist Grammy?
Remember, in order to qualify as a New Artist, they must have come to prominence between 10/1/01 and 9/30/02; it no longer has anything to do with when their first album was released.
It's the so-called "Whitney Houston Rule", as it came into effect after Whitney had the biggest debut album ever but was considered inelegeble because she had previously released one duet on a soundtrack album prior to the elegibilty period.
I used to think Norah Jones had the inside track having a popular, critically acclaimed pop album released on a legendary jazz lable.

Of the genre-spanning "big four" awards — Album of the Year, Record of the Year, Song of the Year (given to the songwriters) and Best New Artist — expectations hang heaviest on the latter.
Although his self-titled debut album fostered two other singles, and his "Arthur's Theme (Best That You Can Do)," from the movie "Arthur," was a hit, his eight albums since paled in comparison to his first LP, which has been certified five-times platinum.
Crow added to her glory with six more Grammys and 11 platinum plaques from the three albums that followed her 1994 maiden win.
