Jump5 (album)

Jump5 is the self-titled debut album from Christian pop group Jump5. It was released on August 14, 2001 through Sparrow Records. Two re-releases followed: the first featured the "Start Jumpin'" bonus track targeted towards Christian audiences, while the second featured a Radio Disney-targeted version of "Start Jumpin'" with different lyrics plus a cover of Lee Greenwood's God Bless the USA to remember the lives lost after the September 11th attacks. A portion of sales from the second re-release was donated to families who lost a loved one during the attacks on September 11, 2001.

gollark: Funnily enough, I made an esolang called WHY.
gollark: "Science isn't about WHY, it's about WHY NOT? WHY is so much of our sciencedangerous, WHY NOT marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why notinvent a special safety door that won't kick you on the butt on the way outbecause you are fired."
gollark: If you are crazy you can probably write the buildscripts in ANY LANGUAGE via CALLING AN INTERPRETER PROCESS.
gollark: Though usually it's not necessary.
gollark: But, you see, Rust allows build scripts to be written... *IN RUST*.
