 Down to EarthSales Rank:904List Price: $11.98 Lowest New Price: $7.68 Lowest Used Price: $6.00 Average Customer Rating: 3.5 out of 5 Total Reviews: 28 Customer Reviews:Rating: 4 "Becoming a bitch is not what I got into music for" So you're pretty much going to see two camps here - those that preferred Finally Woken, and those that prefer Down to Earth. I fall into the latter camp, though I am still quite a fan of FW. The only problem is that her first album felt like a grab-bag of different experiments. Down to Earth is more cohesive, creating an ethereal kind of spacey vibe. I must say that "It's Amazing" is one of the most inspiring and uplifting songs I've heard in a long time. "I Always Knew" is one of those revenge songs you want to play loudly whenever someone is annoying you. And there you go...another vote for Earth. I think the only thing we're all going to agree on is that Jem has much talent she has yet to explore. I look forward to seeing what she comes up with next, and I hope it doesn't take four more years to find out. Rating: 4 I detect a lack of energy This is sub-par to Finally Woken but still a very decent effort. There's nothing extremely catchy here like "They" or "Wish I" and Jem sounds downright sleepy at times. I was hoping this would sparkle as much as her previous gem but maybe the next time she'll master it again. Rating: 5 As good as the first one! If you liked her first album, this is just as good if not better. If you never heard the first, this is a great album with catchy tunes and a melodic voice. I highly recommend it. Rating: 5 refreshing, relaxing, well-written music If you liked her first album, this is a must own. In my opinion, there is only one bad track and at least 5 excellent songs. The rest are great for relaxing and contemplating great lyrics. Talented artist, feel-good music Rating: 1 Weak I don't know what happened between the recording of Maybe I'm amazed and this album, I thought Jem was really coming into her own but to put it simply she lost her mojo. Down to Earth is a shell, hardly a glimpse of what this talented artist is capable of. I listened to the entire album and didn't hear a single song with any sort of feeling or soul. I'm sad. |
