Jem was born in Wales, a misty and oddly shaped UK
peninsula also responsible for bringing the world Tom Jones
and Shirley Bassey among other things. From the age of
thirteen she was singing and writing songs, basic recording
equipment was ever-present and she decided that one day she
would be a singer. Keeping her dreams of this future career
mostly to herself however, after finishing school she
headed to Sussex University.
Whilst in Brighton, Jem's great passion for music drew her
into the music industry, but at this point it was the
behind-the-scenes side that attracted her. She hurled her
energies into club and festival promotion, became a DJ

------ About the song 24 performed by Jem
awesome song, i have seen ultraviolet but a really long time ago. i know the song from the final dance scene in Centre Stage: Turn It Up. they're dancing in "the glass slipper" which is like a modernised cinderella and its the final scene where cinderella and the prince are trying to overcome everything (such as stepsisters) and get together.... great scene!

Im 100% sure what this song is about and what all her other songs are about. Shes a very enlightened individual . She understands the rules , politics and beliefs that religion , the government and society has enforced on us. Its pretty sad that most people blindly follow what society tells them too . They stray away from their life purpose to fulfill some psuedo-need ( fame , populairty , or keeping up with the jones's ) . Jem has made her career an expression of her true divinity as a person . She sings form her soul and not from her ego .
10 stars
my dearest Jem

I'm reading Brisingr for the umpteenth time and enjoying every moment of it. And I think I've listened to this song for the twentieth time since I heard it on Sunday (I know, I was late in watching the movie - the book was better) but still, Wonderful song!
Can't wait for the fourth instalment of this story, Christopher Paolini has my respect - the way he created a whole new language for the story was amazing.

I love the song, as i do all of Jem's songs.
and interpret the political standpoint on the lyrics,
If anyone's interested in the whole "Blindly Following" cult mentality, check out Zeitgeist-(2007) takes a look at society as a whole.
Have and read the three books released to date. Eragon, Eldest and Brisingr.
Own the DVD of Eragon as soon as it was released. While it left much to be desired in comparison to the books. It was alright in of itself. I do love Saphira. As for this song. It's moved itself into my fav top three. The other two being, 'The Last Unicorn' and the full version to the 'Ghost in the Shell' opening theme.

------ About the song Stay Now performed by Jem
I first heard of this song after reading the book Wicked Lovely. There was a playlist in the back, and this was one of the songs. It matches the chapter of the book perfectly. It is so sad and sweet at the same time. I like it.
this is one of the saddest songs ive ever heard in my entire life. Someone made a video out of it with clips of the movie lie with me and i thought it was wonderful. But once i searched the lyrics and heard the entire song i even cried.

This song has a lot of meaning behind it. when we hear a song we normally dont look behind the words and see what the song is about, listen to the lyrics, ENJOY the song. a lot of the songs that are out have a purpose and are trying to prove or tell us something. This song is most likely talking about death. think about it the next time u listen to this song..... not everyone has a chance to cheat death and really only have 24 hours to live. we cant really relate to something like that we should enjoy the time we have cause u never know what might happen the next day.... for all we know we might only have 24 hours to live. Just dont let any one else run ur life make ur choices. enjoy the life u have. god gave it to you for a reason! This is such a well written and thought out song i love this song! They picked the best movie to put it in. Think about this song its such a great song!

------ About the song They performed by Jem
This song is about governments and the people "leading" us.
What do they know about people? They do make all the rules and some people follow them like fools.
You never see politicians come in the street, talk to the poor, the citizens, they just decide what's best for themselves and not really for the people, everybody should see that, it's becoming more obvious year by year.
We don't like what's happening to this world, pain, destruction, money but nobody's doing anything about it, why do we live like this?
Ignorance is a bliss for those happy to be part of an unfair system. People who know, reject the system but at the same time feel the pain of witnessing how people are like puppets.
I'm not a puppet, people wake up!!! This planet is ours not just the richests'.

Missing You..... | Reviewer: AliKat
------ About the album Finally Woken performed by Jem
The most beautiful song.
My father past away on January 5th of this year. He raised me from the age of 2, I am now 24. My 1 year old daughter was the last person that got to see him other than my step mom....she was playing with him and picking up everything she could find and giving it to her "Papa". I hugged him the night before that and told him I loved him, which I am sure he already knew.
After playing with his granddaughter he went to lay down for a nap.....he never woke up.
I heard missing you for the first time today while I was driving to work....I instantly teared up.
She said exactley what I have been feeling and with such a beautiful voice.
That's all really.....it's a touching song that makes me feel like it's ok to cry.

------ About the song They performed by Jem
yeah, i would definitely have to agree with Shabeer Ali ....but i also think she is also talking about government and such and how we are used to tradition and such that we dont think twice when we do it.
i really like this song - Jem's implicit message is amazing!
Life for Yourself | Reviewer: Chrestes
------ About the song 24 performed by Jem
This is an awesome song.! ^_^
Somehow, I took it as the story of someone who had been restricting her life doing things that she found no completion in (actions driven by the request of some higher authority's desire, perhaps that of a parent); and the song circulates around her suffering from a fatal illness (it had been determined that she'll die in 24 hours). On that last day, she does not follow her ongoing routine and finally realizes that she has not achieved serenity because the chains that others obscured her life with prevented her from being happy (thereby, making her "waste" her time, since, in the end, she found no solace in what she's accomplished). Thus, she gives a final word of wisdom to someone close to her: to live "feely", pursuing goals one wished to achieve rather that getting caught up in the contemptuous demands of others).
Overall, I believe the message here is: live your life as you want to; otherwise, you'll never be happy. But that's just my opinion.

I agree with what a few of you said, my thoughts back when I first heard this song were that someone was going to kill her and they gave her 1 day. Then I came to think about the doctor scenario, but personally I don't like to consider all the meaning of the song because abstractly, it means more to me than if it had purpose. It is what you make of it.
I love it.
