Strange: Since 2001, Razor and Tie Records have been releasing a series of albums called "Kidz Bop," featuring children singing contemporary pop hits. The "adult" lyrical content of some of the rap and rock tunes they sing has generated plenty of one-star reviews on Amazon from upset parents, but the fact that they're up to Volume 8 means that someone's buying these enjoyable slices of pop perversions.
Stranger: They cover indie-rockers Franz Ferdinand's "Take Me Out."
Strangest: An adult male is singing along with the kids. Kinda creepy, like a grown-up playing with children in a sandbox.
Kidz Bop "Take Me Out"
