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.
Pieces Of Me
Kidz Bop Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tuesday, I am fading
And by Wednesday I can't sleep
Then the phone rings, I hear you
And the darkness is a clear view
Cause' you've come to rescue me
I can hardly catch my breath
I hope it lasts
It seems like I can finally rest
My head on something real
I like the way that feels
It's as if you know me better than
I ever knew myself, I love how you can tell
All the pieces, pieces, pieces of me
All the pieces, pieces, pieces of me
I am moody, messy
I get restless and senseless
How you never seem to care
When I'm angry' you listen
Make me happy, it's your mission
And you wont stop 'til I'm there
Fall, sometimes I fall so fast
When I hit the bottom crash
You're all I have
It seems like I can finally rest
My head on something real
I like the way that feels
It's as if you know me better than
I ever knew myself, I love how you can tell
All the pieces, pieces, pieces of me
How do you know
Everything I'm about to say
Am I that obvious and if it's written on my face
I hope it never goes away, yeah
On a Monday I am waiting
And by Tuesday I am fading
Into your arms, so I can breath
It seems like I can finally rest
My head on something real
I like the way that feels
It's as if you know me better than
I ever knew myself, I love how you can tell
I love how you can tell, I love how you can tell
Pieces, pieces, pieces of me
All the pieces, pieces, pieces of me
"Pieces of Me" by Kidz Bop is a song that is all about the artist's significant other and how they help her feel better when she is going through tough times. The song starts by explaining how the artist feels at the beginning of the week; waiting on Monday, fading on Tuesday, and then not being able to sleep by Wednesday. However, once her partner calls her, she feels better, as if they've "come to rescue" her. From there, the artist explains how quickly she falls for her partner and how they understand her better than anyone ever has. She acknowledges that she is "moody" and "messy" but feels thankful that her partner doesn't seem to care. When she is angry, they listen, and when she is sad, they make it their mission to make her happy again.
Throughout the song, the artist emphasizes the idea that her partner knows all the "pieces of her." They understand her better than she ever thought possible and can tell how she is feeling even when she doesn't vocalize it. The singer is grateful for their partner's ability to know what she needs without her having to ask. The chorus continually repeats the phrase "all the pieces, pieces, pieces of me," driving home the idea that the singer's partner knows her completely.
Overall, "Pieces of Me" is an uplifting song about the power of relationships, specifically the importance of having someone who understands and accepts you for who you are.
