1. Damn you!
I fell for it. The five year old was standing over my shoulder and now she wants that crap!

DAMN YOU TO HELL!

2. The singer's main musical influences are
Gwen Stefani, Kelly Clarkson, and Fergie.

Sorry 'bout that, xmas. :rofl: ;)

3. I'm betting this will be much worse than the
Ali and AJ cd she just had to have. The High School Musical soundtrack isn't so bad.

Damn the Disney Channel! If they release something I hear whining for months!

4. Thankfully (or not, I'm not sure) the 5 yr old
just listens to the same emo crap the 15 yr old listens to...she asked me today if I had Hawthorne Heights in the car. :eyes: :D

5. That could be good or bad.
It depends on how bad the band really is.

My daughter loves the Disney crap. She also loves cheesy 80's music.

11. How is that a problem?
Given the concept of the band, a bunch of kids covering songs they probably don't understand fits quite nicely with the concept if you ask me.

7. You all don't understand...THIS IS DEVO PLAYING THE MUSIC.
REALLY. The vocals are mostly that 12-year-old girl (who does quite a good job, by the way), but the music is all PLAYED BY DEVO. And it features two new Devo songs. Take it from a hardcore Devo fan, this album doesn't totally suck.

8. I can agree with that...
it's more the idea that's horrifying. ;)

9. I have the album, and I agree...
...the music is very good. If Mark had been singing, it would be even better. The girl really isn't *that* bad though. True, she ruins Unconrollable Urge but I actually enjoyed this version of Peek-A-Boo better, although there is something creepy about a 12 year old girl singing "Peek-A-Boo, I see you, and I know what you do, because I do it too."

One pet peeve of mine though is some of the lyrics changes. The change of the last line in Beautiful World from "for you, but not for me" to "for you and I guess me too" really ruins the song.
