The original lineup consisted of Chris Fedun, Brandon Hargest, Brittany Hargest, Libby Hodges, and Lesley Moore. In early 2004, Libby Hodges left to go back to a "normal life" and trial member Natasha Noack filled in for Libby during the 2004 Radio Disney Spring Thing Tour.

Chris Fedun (born January 14, 1986)
Brandon Hargest (born March 17, 1987)
Brittany Hargest (born August 2, 1988)
Lesley Moore (born October 15, 1986)
The band officially disbanded Sunday, December 16, 2007. They performed their final concert at the Rocketown Center in Nashville, Tennessee; performing with former member Libby Hodges.

Everyday is a new day
And I don't have to pretend
All my friends think I'm crazy
But I don't want this to end
When I have the chance I wanna say to you
I'll never do it again
We're like oil and water still we somehow mix
And what used to be broken is somehow fixed
It's hard to explain
I know some people say
That opposites attract
If that's the truth then we
We will be together forever
It's like I got nothing to do but think about you
I've got all the time in the world
If you look in my heart
You'll know from the start
That's its all I can do
Not to think about you
I gave you good reason
To walk out that door
Let me tell you I've learned a thing or two
And I'm so amazed at the things you do
Now don't let me go oh no
I know some people say
That opposites attract
If that's the truth then we,
We're meant to be together forever
It's like I got nothing to do but think about you
I've got all the time in the world
If you look in my heart
You'll know from the start
That's its all I can do
Not to think about you
I know some people say
That opposites attract
If that's the truth then we,
We belong together forever
It's like I got nothing to do but think about you
I've got all the time in the world
If you look in my heart
You'll know from the start
That's its all I can do
Not to think about you
Jump5's song "Why Do I Do" is a reflection of a young person's intense, deep feelings for someone they can't seem to get off their mind. The lyrics express the singer's dilemma, that their mind is constantly preoccupied with thoughts of this person, despite their conflicting differences and prior relationship issues. The song begins with the singer acknowledging that they don't have anything else to do but think about the person in question, describing how every day feels like they're starting anew, and that they don't want their relationship to end. They express their desire to apologize for whatever hurt they've caused in the past, emphasizing that they've learned from their mistakes and that they won't repeat them. The singer then acknowledges the many differences between them and their partner, likening them to oil and water. But somehow, they magically find a way to mix, and their relationship mends even though they can't always explain how. The singer then acknowledges the popular theory that opposites attract, and that therefore, their differences shouldn't be an obstacle in their relationship. They end the song by again expressing their complete devotion and obsession with their partner, saying that they don't have anything else to do but think about them.
The song carries a mixture of youthful yearning, new love, and deep devotion, all wrapped up in an upbeat pop melody. It captures the essence of the teenage experience of first love, where one feels completely absorbed by the person they're drawn to. Its lyrics are honest and relatable, and the production is a perfect example of contemporary pop at the time of its release. Overall, it's a song that speaks to the romantic in all of us.

It's like I've got nothing to do but think about you
My thoughts are always consumed with you, leaving no room for anything else
