1.0 out of 5 stars TERRIBLE!, April 27, 2005

This review is from: Kidz Bop 7 (Audio CD)

As an older teen, I am sure that I am less conservative than most parents, but I am still strongly against Kidz Bop for creating their remake of mostly inappropriate songs for kids. While I personally listen to a lot of these songs, I wouldn't have my child listen to them while Kidz Bop tries to pass itself off as something fun and child-friendly. Many of them have obvious sexual messages (sung by children, which i find disturbing) and themes that young children shouldn't have to deal with. From an teen's perspective, Kidz Bop has effectively ruined many songs for me; Every time I hear them sing on commercials I cringe. Kids should listen to their own age-appropriate songs. Just because kids are singing them doesn't make this okay for kids. Think about the bad influence of some pop music which regularly deals with drugs, sex, breakups etc. Do you want your five year old, completely unaware of what it's about, to sing along to this stuff?

1.0 out of 5 stars Kidz Bop Kids - Might Be By Kids, but Definately Not For Kids, March 3, 2006

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Kidz Bop 7 (Audio CD)

Well, my ears hurt now.

Kidz Bop Kids just can't do it. They can't sing very well; their recordings of the songs often stray from the music itself; and the lyrics are rarely the same.

I understand the purpose of Kidz Bop Kids is to sell CLEAN versions of popular songs, but it is possible (especially with iTunes) to buy clean verisons of the songs sung by the real singers. A "bleep" is much better than a half-thrown attempt to replace a swear word with something sounding similar or "criminal record" with "school record."

What is wrong with singing "criminal record says I broke in twice" anyways?

1.0 out of 5 stars KNOW THE LYRICS BEFORE YOU BUY FOR YOUR KIDS!!!!!, February 7, 2006

KNOW THE LYRICS BEFORE YOU BUY FOR YOUR KIDS!

THIS MUSIC CONTAINS HARMFUL, NEGATIVE, DESTRUCTIVE MESSAGES FOR KIDS!!!

MOST of the songs aren't kid friendly or appropriate IN THE LEAST! My FIVE YEAR OLD picked up on ALL the lyrics to "Welcome to my Life" and it SEVERELY affected his mood and behavior!!!!!!! How would you feel knowing that the following lyrics from songs on KidzBop7 is what's being marketed and sold to your child:

WELCOME TO MY LIFE:
"Are you stuck inside a world you hate?
Are you sick of everyone around?
With the big fake smiles and stupid lies
While deep inside you're bleeding..."

1985:
"Debbie just hit the wall
She never had it all
One Prozac a day
Husband's a CPA
Her dreams went out the door
When she turned 24
Only been with one man
What happened to her plan?"

BEAUTIFUL SOUL:
"Am I crazy for wanting you
Baby do you think you could want me too
I don't wanna waste your time
Do you see things the way I do
I just wanna know if you feel it too
There is nothing left to hide..."

ON THE WAY DOWN:
"Sick and Tired of this world
There's no more air
Trippin' over myself
Goin' nowhere
Waiting
Suffocating
No direction
And I took a dive"

AND IT GOES ON AND ON..................
