What parents need to know

Parents need to know that this is the first single released from the Disney Channel's upcoming sequel to the big hit Camp Rock, Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam. It's a song about the ensuing competition and "battle of the bands" that occurs between the campers of two opposing rock camps; some friendly competition and cocky banter is as bad as it gets on this squeaky-clean single.

Positive messages: Encourages kids to get excited about trying hard.
Positive role models: Characters from the movie are all mostly good kids, trying to be the best musicians they can be, but competition can sometimes bring out the "not so nice" in people.
Violence: Not applicable.
Sex: Not applicable.
Language: Not applicable.
Consumerism: Single released to promote upcoming Disney Channel original movie, Camp Rock 2.
Drinking, drugs, & smoking: Not applicable.

What to talk about

Talk to your kids
  • Families can talk about the hype surrounding movies that feature big-name stars, such as the Jonas Brothers or Demi Lovato. Does it make you more likely to see a movie with stars you know and like already? Does the fact that it's a sequel make it more interesting? Are you more likely to watch a movie that has the name "Disney" attached to it? Why or why not? Have you already seen ads for this movie? Does it make you want to see it or buy the music?

  • The singers talk about competing against one another and seeing who's "the best." Is there such a thing as healthy competition? Do you feel like you have to compete at school or with your friends? When? How does it make you feel?

What's the story?

What's the story?

"IT'S ON" is the first single from the upcoming soundtrack to Disney Channel's Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam.  After the widespread success of the first Camp Rock, this sequel is sure to be a hit. The rallying single features most of the main characters from the first movie, (Jonas Brothers, Demi Lovato, Meaghan Jette Martin, and Alyson Stoner) so fans won't be disappointed. It's a sugary rock-pop single with lots of energy about a battle of the bands between the teens at Camp Rock and Camp Star. It's sure to excite and ignite the competitive fire for Camp Rockers who eagerly wait the release of Camp Rock 2.

Is it any good?

Is it any good?
 

After the success of Camp Rock, any collaboration with the adorable and likeable Jonas Brothers and Demi Lovato is going to be a hit. In the sequel, there's a battle about to happen at Camp Rock, and this song is a fun and feisty pep rally for the musical competition that's in store. Lovato belts out most of the song, while Matthew "MDot" Finley shows off his rap skillz, and Nick and Kevin Jonas liven things up with drum and guitar solos. This single (and video) will make fans old and new want to see the movie to check out which camp comes out on top.

It sounds like the CD's broken, it repates itself..
What does "It's On!" mean anyway? Now Disney made it a slogan! Now during every commercial break they go "Disney Channel.. its on!" Do they mean Disney channel is on? Because I figured out that much! Well, the song "Its On" is annoying to me. It mostly repeats its lyrics, "Its on, its on its on...show me show me show me show me..." I cant believe they got so impressed with this saying they made a huge music video with it written in the sky. I like their insuseasum, but can't they make up something better? Do they have to make it their whole lifes work? I just miss things that werent aimed at tweens/teens, I'm a teen, I was once a tween, I was never impressed.

This song is really good actually, for being a kids song. I think teens my age would actually like it if they weren't so afraid of liking a kids song...

Irritates the living crud out of me
I hate this song.. its horrible I'm serious. I like how they try to modivate you, but its getting irritating, all summer long Disney used 'it's on' as its catch phrase. What is on? Do they ever answer that question? The music video rocked if it didn't include signs, airplane fuel, and people spelling 'its on' all over the place, plus its all repeated 'show me show me show me show me..' 'la la la la la la la la' 'its on, its on, its on..'

 
Hate it!
The song's annoying and they repeat over and over the same words.
