Code 5 was a Swiss boysband. They enjoyed moderate success in Switzerland with a Top 10 hit "Love Is Your Game" and in Canada with their rendition of Carol Medina's song "And The Song Goes (Doo Dit)".

Career
Code 5 was formed by manager Stephan Brunner, and the members were recruited through the Swiss newspaper Blick. The band was officially introduced on a press conference in late March 1997, and their first single "Love Is Your Game" debuted on the Swiss singles chart two months later at #9, and maintained the spot for two weeks. The follow-up single, "Hold Me Now", was less successful and after four weeks on the chart peaked at #42.

Damian Meier, who acted both as the lead singer and vocal coach for the band, left the band in November to pursue a solo career, and had been replaced with Canadian Jason Meloche. He debuted with Code 5 on their "I'll Be There For You" single and appeared in the music video.

Code 5 performed as an opening act for the Backstreet Boys on their Live in Concert Tour stop in Winterthur.
