Charmaine "Only You" / Editor's Currently Listening To
Friday, June 5th, 2009 at 12:00 AM by Ruth Tynes / Online Editor / InTheTimes.com
Hi InTheTimes.com Girls!
I'm currently listening to the single "Only You" by Charmaine from the All About Jesus album ! You might recognize Charmaine as she has been travelling with Rebecca St. James for years as a background vocalist !
My fav lyrics? "I want to run / Run away from me / And forget myself / 'Till I'm lost in You / I pray / Let me fade away / 'Till there's nothing left / Nothing left / Only You"
Our goal as Christians should be to get to the point when we fade away in all of our selfishness and instead are replaced with the love of God !

Later! RUTH

Hi InTheTimes.com Girls!
Recently Jump5 The Ultimate Collection, a 2-disc set featuring some of Jump5's best-loved songs released! This is a great collection for long-time Jump5 fans and it makes a great gift for fans to introduce others to the Jump5 legacy of music!
Below you will find a re-print of our interview with Brittany Hargest who is currently in the studio with Jump5 bandmate and sibling Brandon recording the debut full-length album for their group called Guest !
Check back at InTheTimes.com this month for the re-print of our interview with Lesley Moore and Jump5 Stories Behind the Songs from The Ultimate Collection!
Talk soon! RUTH
ITT:What's your favorite memory from being in Jump5 ?
Brittany: This is a really hard question to answer because we as a group have been together for so long that there are so many to choose from! But probably one of the biggest memories from being in Jump5 was getting to perform at the White House for President Bush and his family. It was an incredible, scary, and probably the most thrilling experience of my life (especially for an at the time, 14-year-old girl).
ITT:What is the one thing you are going to miss about recording / touring together ?
Brittany: I think I'm going to miss just getting to be together on the road and touring together. All four of us have known each other since we were 3 and 4 years old, so we really have grown up together as best friends. It's really hard to imagine life without seeing each other practically every day.
ITT:How does being a role model for girls effect how you live your life off stage--in your everyday living ?
Brittany: It doesn't really change a thing, because who we are on stage is exactly who we are off. We don't try to put on an act when we're performing. We are just simply four young adults who love the Lord and love to sing and dance!
* BONUS VIDEO - Watch Jump5 perform "God Bless the USA" at The White House !
ITT:Where has been your favorite place to perform ?
Brittany: Anytime we play in NYC it's great ! I also love playing in Houston and Alaska was pretty amazing too.
ITT:What is your favorite song that Jump5 has done and why ?
Brittany: I think one of my favorites has to be "I Surrender All" from our newest album Hello and Goodbye. We decided on doing a hymn this time around and I think it really came out beautiful. It's definitely a different sound for us because it's so stripped down and raw, but it really means a lot to us and I hope it reaches out to everyone listening to it as well.
ITT:What are your career plans after Jump5 ?
Brittany: My brother Brandon and I are putting another band together that will be a little different from Jump5. It's going to be weird for the first few months of doing shows without singing J5 songs, but I'm really anxious to see where God takes us in the next step of our lives. So stay tuned!

Tammy Trent "I See Beautiful" / Editor's Currently Listening To
Monday, June 1st, 2009 at 12:00 AM by Ruth Tynes / Online Editor / InTheTimes.com
Hi InTheTimes.com Girls!
I'm currently listening to the single "I See Beautiful" by Tammy Trent from the album of the same name!
My fav lyrics? It's hard to decide because this is one of my all-time favorite songs! "Every time I take the time I see You / Everywhere I look I know You're there / No matter how I'm feeling I can feel You / I believe I receive Your goodness / I choose to see things differently / You can if you will just believe"
These lyrics are so true! Truly every time I've taken the time to acknowledge God, whether it be through reading His Word the Bible, or just sitting back and chatting with Him about life, taking the time to observe His wonder through His creation, or simply asking Him what I thought was a rhetorical question...I have seen God, I have heard God, He has been so overwhelmingly real to me. And I have seen His perfect goodness for me and for all mankind. Having this awareness of God really does change your perspective, you do see things differently, you do see beautiful.

Blessings! RUTH
