Any G.E.M. fans on the S.D.M.B.?

So I have a history here of starting threads about Asian singers I like, but in this case I’ve come across a singer who I think is truly phenomenal: G.E.M.

[QUOTE=Wikipedia]
The media gave G.E.M nicknames such as “巨肺少女”[16] and “巨肺小天后” meaning “Girl with Giant Lungs” and “the Young Empress of Heaven with Giant Lungs” respectively because of her B♭3-E6 vocal range, and she had performed songs by Whitney Houston in a number of occasions.

I’m a lifelong musician, but I’m at the point where I’m more interested in discovering new music than in playing music. One thing that really grabs my attention is a great voice. And I’ve been very happy to discover Hong Kong/Chinese singer G.E.M. on YouTube, because I think she’s incredibly good.

Get Over You

The Maddonna-esque “Good to be Bad”

Channeling Janet Jackson in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GO2UUfunamw (and I have to admit, as a professional cook, I enjoyed the “Bad Cook” parts of this video)

“Someday I’ll Fly” - C’mon, this is some great singing

Don’t know the English title, but this is beautiful:

“Lucky”, a duet with Jason Mraz

The Lady Gaga-ish “What Have You Done” Rawk!

And here she is at 18 years old, doing Whitney Houston, live:

I cannot be the only one who thought of this Gem when I read the thread title and opened it to see what a grown man would have to say about it.
But it’s not so-- never mind.

Nah, I thought of this Gemm.

'Twas my first thought, too, and I never even watched that show. It was something to change the channel away from, in search of G.I. Joe or Superfriends.
