Eleven Kidz Bop albums have been released to date. Each album features different pop music songs, played with music similar to the original, and with the "Kidz Bop Kids" singing instead of the original artist. Albums are typically released within a few months of each other and thus the songs included tend to be the hit songs of the current time, including such songs such as "Float On" (Modest Mouse), "This Love" (Maroon 5), and "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" (Green Day).
Although the albums are marketed as being "sanitized" versions of popular songs for children, many of the songs featured on the Kidz Bop albums still contain explicit sexual material, such as Rob Thomas's "Lonely No More," which some people consider inappropriate for younger audiences. Other featured songs, such as "Boulevard of Broken Dreams", contain profanity. Although the albums censor the actual word from the song, the context of the profanity remains. They also covered Green Day's hit "Wake Me Up When September Ends", which is about death.
The Kidz Bop video for their cover of Avril Lavigne's "Sk8r Boi", for instance, features the song being sung by a pre-teen girl in heavy make-up, fishnet stockings, and a Sex Pistols t-shirt.

Kidz Bop Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Distant faces with no place left to go
Without you within me, I can find no rest
Where I'm goin' is anybody's guess
I tried to go on like I never knew you
I'm awake but my world is half asleep
I pray for this heart to be unbroken
Voices tell me I should carry on
But I am swimming in an ocean all alone
Baby, my baby, it's written on your face
You still wonder if we made a big mistake
I tried to go on like I never knew you
I'm awake but my world is half asleep
I pray for this heart to be unbroken
But without you, all I'm going to be is incomplete
I don't mean to drag it on
But I can't seem to let you go
I don't wanna make you face this world alone
I want to let you go
(Alone)
I tried to go on like I never knew you
I'm awake but my world is half asleep
I pray for this heart to be unbroken
But without you, all I'm going to be is incomplete
Incomplete
The Kidz Bop song "Incomplete" portrays a feeling of emptiness and loss experienced after a break-up. The opening lyrics "Empty spaces fill me up with holes, Distant faces with no place left to go" depicts a sense of loneliness with no place to belong after a love loss. The words "Without you within me, I can find no rest, Where I'm goin' is anybody's guess" further displays the character's feeling of being lost and directionless after losing someone they love.
The singer mentions that they tried to move on by going through life pretending like they never knew their former love, but they still feel incomplete. The line "I pray for this heart to be unbroken, But without you, all I'm going to be is incomplete" further creates a sense of hopelessness that the singer cannot heal their broken heart without their love interest.
The song's bridge "I don't mean to drag it on, But I can't seem to let you go, I don't wanna make you face this world alone, I want to let you go (Alone)" reveals the inner turmoil of the singer who wishes to move on, but at the same time, they cannot let their love go. The whole song talks about how incomplete they feel without their partner, even though they know they need to let them go and move on.
Overall, "Incomplete" by Kidz Bop is a relatable song for anyone who has felt the heart-wrenching pain of losing someone they love but cannot let go. The lyrics capture the emotions of emptiness and longing, making it a moving song that can resonate with many listeners.
