The Kidz Bop Must Stop

I already thought Kidz Bop was an extremely annoying cultural phenomenon (a chorus of children sings crappified versions of pop songs). But it has come to my attention that they covered Float On by Modest Mouse, which I find extremely dismaying. Here, someone has set the Kidz Bop version against video of a Modest Mouse performance:



I'm not sure I've ever heard anything more unpleasant, I'm never watching that again. So painful. (Yet, like a car wreck, I could not avert my attention.) And it's really weird to hear a bunch of kids sing "I backed my car into a cop car the other day."
