A bodacious beginning (revised; i couldn't finish it yesterday)

By LauraCC,
How do you know when you're getting old? When a group you've followed since their inception (sort of) disbands. Even though it's only been 5 years, I still feel old. I love the music of Jump5, and I'm 20.
Spinnin' Around: Very poppy. Popsome? Popful? Poppish? (Whatever!) Although I have a slight disdain for songs that brand themselves forever by mentioning the group name in the lyrics, the song itself is a good dance song.
Virtual Reality: Nice SFX. Also a great dance song for a party.
Change A Heart, Change The World: I wanted this to be my Grade 8 grad song, but I didn't ask the music teacher in time.
Meaning of Life: Says what it needs to and I love the message
All I Want: Short and sweet. I developed a liking for this song the more I listened to it. Sounds like a Jump Rope For Heart Song.
Wish That I Could Read Your Mind: Has a summer camp by the lake feel to it. Wishing to be able to see what is in a friend's heart. Don't we all?
Tell Me Why: Another "I-don't-deserve-your-love-but-thank-you" song. Who could ever get tired of that? (I may sound sarcastic, but I'm not)
I Belong To You: Sweet in the chorus, but has a totally different feel in the verses. A little R and B there.
Love Ya Too Much: Slow and quiet. One of at least two songs referring to God as "Ya" (the other one is "Do Ya")
When I Say Your Name: Expresses a common theme of the power of God's name to change your feelings. Interesting repeats of "when I say Your name" by lone female member (not sure which one)
Start Jumpin': Even more like a Jump Rope For Heart Song. Also mentions the group name. Good for dance.
