Been enjoying this album for months now. I dig it. It's like Dido with better beats, and more interesting arrangements. I highly reccomend it. She's cute too, isn't she?

I actually got the album back in May and I really like it. She and the album are very similar to Dido. I've heard her songs used in a bunch of tv stuff recently (Desperate Housewives commercial and in Six Feet Under).

Before buying the album you should try listening to some of the clips of the tracks on amazon.com or I use itunes, because you can always hear a bit of every song. Sometimes on amazon.com only a few of the tracks are available.

Jem has never been the same since she left The Holograms to go solo.

Jem's album is excellent. "Just a Ride" is a great summer-y song. That song is my second fave on the disc (the first being "They").

"They" is one of the best single songs I have heard all year. I am afraid that given general experience, the rest of the album can't be nearly that great. Am I right?

I've never heard any of her singles or studio tracks, but she had a cameo last season on The O.C. as a wedding singer, and I really liked the song she did.

I've been unimpressed.
