![]() Flyin' first class, away from the peasants. The Bop version: "If you ain't got no money, take your broke self home!" Somehow this sounds sassier than the original noun referring to a braying farm animal or part of the body. The Kidz now probably aren't even '90s kids, suggested by their proclamation "You're from the '70s, but I'm a Kidz Bop Kid!" Try not to puke. I don't remember Radio Disney ever changing it, so you can seen where the Kidz stand on the racy spectrum.Ĭrises were averted in this version, as "you drove your car across a bridge," rather than crashing into it. ![]() The car is upgraded from "crap" to "junk," and they didn't bother to change the rest of the lyrics to match the rhyme. The lady is no longer "sexy" in this version, just simply "lady." Kelly's sheets but rather like their "baseball cleats." Ewwww!īop version: The lyrics sound like they might have been performed in the original Korean, hard really to tell. The obvious radio edits of the song remain, and the rest of the changes deal mostly with making the Kidz "really awesome." Their thrift shop purchases don't smell like R. ![]() The Kidz clean up the hotel room a bit, changing "blood stains" to "grass stains" and "Grey Goose" to "Gold Goose." Kidz don't like blood or vodka.īop version: "Walk up in the club like 'What up? I got a hit song!' " The sheer ridiculousness of this version challenges the ridiculousness of the original's (uncensored) video. Here are just a few examples of some of the best Kidz Bop lyric edits from the Kidz Bop catalog, including Kidz Bop 25, which was released last week and features Ylvis' The Fox, Miley Cyrus' Wrecking Ball (my personal favorite from the album maybe it will make up for her snub by the Grammys), 1D's Best Song Ever and that weird radio techno version of Lana Del Rey's Summertime Sadness. Now that we're in high school, those tweaks can seem pretty funny, or ridiculous, depending on the warm spot you have in your memory of Mom popping a CD in the car player on the way home from gymnastics. Some songs are just too much (you won't be hearing a Kidz Bop rendition of Robin Thicke's Blurred Lines or Beyoncé's Partition any time soon) but some, with minor tweaking, are still Kidz Boppable. ![]() As time has progressed, so too has the language of music, particularly with the increasing use of words and situations not suitable for the tender young ears the Kidz are targeting. ![]() We can thank our parents (or not) for this: The Kidz Bop Kids have been gracing us with their off-key renditions of the most popular songs on the radio for 15 years. ![]()
