I've seen this commercial a few times now...and I'm thinking, how on earth do you let little girls single songs like Big Mess and Whip It? Hopefully, Mothersbaugh (or who ever else is responsible for this crap) has changed the lyrical content of their songs to make them more 'kid friendly'.

Gawd I hate those stupid Kidz Bop CDs and their associated commercials. My 12 year old boy was watching one these Kidz Bop commercials and turns to me and says, "Man those are so stupid. Am I supposed to want this just cuz there's kids singing...I can't even stand school plays". All I could say was "Me either, son...me either". Now I guess we can expect more of our classic (and not-so-classic) pop/rock acts to follow suit. I can't wait for pre-pubecsent dirls to sing all those old Madonna songs.

I know, its not like DEVO is this legendary band or anything, but I think Mothersbaugh has let his stint with "The Rugrats" cartoon blurr his judgment. I guess its hard for some old new wave acts to make a living these days. I wouldn't mind it if Mothersbaugh had just written new kiddy tunes under the 2.0 moniker, but to repackage old songs of social malcontent, cultural disenchantment and sexual double-entendre' for a kids' sing-along...

Like I said, hopefully they've rewritten some these songs, but even if they have...whatta huge sellout.
