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.
Perfect
Kidz Bop Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Darling, just dive right in and follow my lead
Well, I found a girl, beautiful and sweet
Oh, I never knew you were the someone waiting for me
'Cause we were just kids when we fell in love
Not knowing what it was
I will not give you up this time
But darling, just take it slow, your heart is all I own
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath
But you heard it, darling, you look perfect tonight
Well I found the one, stronger than anyone I know
She shares my dreams, I hope that someday I'll share her home
I found a love, to carry more than just my secrets
To carry love, to carry stories of our own
We are still kids, but we're so in love
Fighting against all odds
I know we'll be alright this time
Darling, just hold my hand
Be my girl, I'll be the one
I see my future in your eyes
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
I have faith in what I see
Now I know I have met an angel in person
And she looks perfect
I don't deserve it
You look perfect tonight
The song “Perfect” by Kidz Bop is a romantic ballad about a young couple who found love when they were kids. The first verse is about the singer finding the perfect girl for him. He realizes that he never knew that she was the one waiting for him. Despite being young and not knowing much about love, the couple falls in love and decides to hold on to each other this time. The singer makes a promise to take things slow and cherish her heart. Then he tells her that she has his heart and that they are holding each other's gaze.
The second verse is about how the singer found the girl of his dreams. She is stronger than anyone he knows and they share the same dreams. However, she also carries more than just the singer's secrets; she carries their secret love and stories of their own. They fight against all the odds to stay together, but they know that they'll be alright this time. The singer implores the girl to be his girl and he'll be her one. He sees his whole life with her, and he is hoping that she sees it too.
The chorus is about the singer and the girl dancing in the dark, barefoot on the grass, and listening to their favorite song. He tells her that he has faith in what he sees, and that he has met an angel in person. The girl looks perfect tonight and the singer feels like he doesn't deserve her.
Overall, the song is about finding the one you love and holding on to that love. It's about not worrying about what others think and just being with the person who makes you happy. The song encourages the listener to cherish their love and to never let go.
