All I Can Do [Remix] - Jump5, Chapin, Billy
Jump5 excel so greatly at making radio-friendly teen pop with Christian themes that you wonder why anyone else would even try. These Nashville-based sensations have really turned up the heat on their infectious, inspiratio... more »nal dance grooves with All the Time in the World. Producer Mark Hammond provides this talented five-piece ensemble with a more mature and updated pop sheen, which perfectly complements J5's funky, catchy songs and melodic, sing-along vocals. The only quibble is that that a few of the songs feel like filler; of the 11 tunes here, three are remixes of songs already on the album. The group is on the verge of breakout international success; all that's left is for these songs to be added to the Dance Dance Revolution game. --Mike McGonigal« less

A Great Christian Pop CD!

"I was eagerly anticipating this cd. They definately didn't let me down!
Everything about this cd is great; it is one of the most fun I have heard in a long time. It kicks off to a great start with the incredibly infectious "All I Can Do," arguably the best song on the album. It keeps up momentum with "Throw Your Hands Up," another great song on the album. "Forever in My Heart" has a nice groove, and "Put Me in the Picture" is definately cute. There are slower songs, such as "Angel in My Heart," but most are relatively up-tempo.
While this is a Christian album, the lyrics weren't overly Christian. I found it a bit of a disappointment, but the overall positiveness of the lyrics make up for it. There is NOTHING negative on this album, which is great for younger audiences who don't need to be listening to so much negativity, anyway.
Unfortunately, as great as this cd is, it is not without drawbacks. First, there are only 11 songs on the whole album. By itself, that's almost not enough music. Second, of those 11 songs, three are re-mixes of songs on the cd. Had they been remixes of songs from their previous effort, that would have been great. But they weren't, they were remixes of songs from this cd. The remixes didn't even add anything to the songs. Personally, I actually enjoyed the original versions better. Those problems aside, though, this is still a wonderfully fun album. The eight songs they had were more than worth the price.
This great album can appeal to both Christian and secular audiences. That is very good, as it brings a positive message not found in much of contemporary secular music. The group also set themselves apart from other groups, having their own distinct sound and style. For any parent who wants to find a fun cd without worry of what the lyrics are about, this more than does the job."

High energy, dance/pop that isn't "Dirrty"

"This is a great cd if what you are looking for is infectious, high energy dance/pop, without lost-love/sexual themes performed by 5 talented teens. Jump5, a Christian group, presents positive themes and upbeat messages without sounding like they are proselytizing or being preachy. (I didn't know they were a religious group until is was told so!) Don't write them off just because they are labeled a "Christian" group.Most of the cuts are up tempo dance tunes (All I Can Do, Throw Up Your Hands, Summer Song, Joyride, Forever In My Heart) with the remainder being a ballad (Angel In My Heart) and some techno R&B ( Put Me In The Picture, Diamond). The CD finishes off with what sound like jack-swing remixes of tracks 1,2, and 4.The songs are written with very strong hooks (they'll stay in your head) and are singable. The production is slick and the sound is dynamic (perfect for the dance floor).
The performances are very good but the voices are sometimes overrun with phase shifts and other technical wizardry. The group really shines when they are allowed to just sing without the techno-twiddling. The three female leads are trained vocalists and, not surprisingly, their voices are clear and they harmonize nicely. Brittany, the youngest, has some wonderful "pipes" and uses them to great affect on "All I Can Do" and "Put Me In The Picture".The members of Jump5 are also trained dancers and gymnists (hence the "Jump" of "Jump5"). This aspect of the group is best experienced live or on the two DVDs they have released. Recommended."
Jump and grad this CD today!
