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.
Thinking Out Loud
Kidz Bop Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I can't sweep you off of your feet
Will your mouth still remember the taste of my love?
Will your eyes still smile from your cheeks?
And darling, I will loving you 'til we're 70
And baby, my heart could still fall as hard at 23
And I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Well me, I fall in love with you every single day
And I just wanna tell you I am
So honey now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Place your head on my beating heart
I'm thinking out loud
Maybe we found love right where we are
When my hair's all but gone and my memory fades
And the crowds don't remember my name
When my hands don't play the strings the same way (Mmm)
I know you will still love me the same
'Cause honey your soul could never grow old, it's evergreen
And, baby, your smile's forever in my mind and memory
I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe it's all part of a plan
Well, I'll just keep on making the same mistakes
Hoping that you'll understand
Oh, baby, now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Oh, darling, place your head on my beating heart
I'm thinking out loud
Maybe we found love right where we are
Oh, baby, we found love right where we are
And we found love right where we are
The song "Thinking Out Loud" by Ed Sheeran is a love ballad about loving someone in all their phases of life. Asking if their significant other will still love them when their physical attributes fade away and if memories fade away. The first verse talks about how the person's legs don't work the same as before and the singer can't sweep them off their feet, which will inevitably happen as they get older. However, the singer asks if their mouth will remember their love and if their eyes will still smile from their cheeks. The chorus rejoices in how the singer will love their partner until they are 70 and that their heart could still fall for them as hard, even at 23. The chorus ends with the idea of finding love right where they are.
The second verse talks about how, as time goes on, the singer's hair will be gone, crowds won't remember their name, and their hands won't play the strings the same way. But, the love they have for their partner never fades. The partner's soul is evergreen, and their smile is forever in the singer's mind and memory. Both partners still make mistakes, but they hope that their love will understand. The chorus repeats, emphasizing that they found love right where they are.

When your legs don't work like they used to before
When you're not as young as you were and can't do everything you used to do
And I can't sweep you off of your feet
I can't do things for you like I used to be able to
Will your mouth still remember the taste of my love?
Will you always remember how much I love you?
Will your eyes still smile from your cheeks?
Will you still be happy to see me?
And darling, I will loving you 'til we're 70
I will love you forever
And baby, my heart could still fall as hard at 23
I will always love you as much as I did when we were younger
And I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Love is hard to understand sometimes
Maybe just a touch of a hand
Sometimes love can start with just a small gesture
Well me, I fall in love with you every single day
I fall in love with you more and more all the time
And I just wanna tell you I am
I just want to let you know how much I love you
So honey now
Now, my love
Take me into your loving arms
Hold me close and show me your love
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Kiss me under a beautiful, romantic setting
Place your head on my beating heart
Feel my love for you
I'm thinking out loud
I'm sharing my innermost thoughts with you
Maybe we found love right where we are
We don't need anything else to be happy together
When my hair's all but gone and my memory fades
As I get older and start to lose my memory
And the crowds don't remember my name
People might forget who I am
When my hands don't play the strings the same way (Mmm)
When I can't do everything I used to be able to do
I know you will still love me the same
I'm confident that you'll still love me no matter what
'Cause honey your soul could never grow old, it's evergreen
You will always be young and energetic in my eyes
And, baby, your smile's forever in my mind and memory
I will never forget your beautiful smile
Maybe it's all part of a plan
Maybe everything happens for a reason
Well, I'll just keep on making the same mistakes
I'll keep doing what I know in my heart is right
Hoping that you'll understand
Hoping that you'll see how much I love you
Oh, baby, now
Now, my love
Oh, darling, place your head on my beating heart
Feel my love and how much it beats for you
Oh, baby, we found love right where we are
We don't need to look for love when we have it right here
