Jem And The Holograms Share New Music To Celebrate 40th Anniversary Of ‘Jem’

Hasbro is celebrating the 40th anniversary of Jem and the Holograms by releasing a new album, featuring six re-recorded songs from the original voice of Jem, Britta Phillips. Jem was an animated series that ran from 1985-1988, which featured outrageous ‘80s fashion and a synth heavy music soundtrack. In July, Hasbro is planning to release Jem and the Holograms on vinyl and digital platforms, including a reimagined version of the show’s theme song that just dropped, as well as updated renditions of “Only The Beginning” and “She’s Got The Power.” Phillips is excited to have the opportunity to revisit these classic tunes – and that iconic character – after all these years. “Seriously, I was thrilled to be asked to sing these songs again,” Phillips says. “I had listened to and sang many Jem songs at Jemcon last year, so they were very fresh in my mind. And I’m so excited for the Jem fans to hear them.” (Billboard)
