Accelerate is the fourth album by the Christian pop group Jump5. It was released on October 7, 2003. It charted at No. 150 on the Billboard 200 and at No. 8 on the Top Christian Albums charts.[2] The album demonstrated the group's shift towards a pop rock sound, and was also the first album on which a member of the group had writing credits. Half of the album was covers, including "Walking on Sunshine" by Katrina and the Waves and "Shining Star" by Earth, Wind & Fire. The group's cover of Sister Sledge's "We Are Family" was used as the theme for the Radio Disney Family Pledge Initiative.[citation needed]
