Barbie Hit Mix

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Strip away the photo of Barbie as Britney wannabe on the cover and extend the track list with a few hard-rocking, boy-skewed songs, and what you're left with here is yet another installment of the irritating but phenomenally popular Kidz Bop series. Harshly put, Hit Mix is a knockoff. On it you will find an identical-sounding chorus of kids crooning slowed-down versions of top-10ers, the main difference being that the Rhino/Mattel offering is more amenable to listeners whose main objective is finding music they can march their dolls along to in mock fashion shows (or hold make-believe Ken, Barbie, and Midge concerts to, or stage all night boogie-fests for their anatomically incorrect heroes to). Bottom line: If your 4- to 8-year-old gets as much of a rise out of Jessica Simpson as she does her Barbie Townhouse, or if she's a kid who "bopz" shamelessly, her hopes, but probably not yours, have been answered with Hit Mix. --Tammy La Gorce

Great CD for children. Lots of neat music for them that is not full of profanity or innuendos.

For what it is, it's not bad.......2005-03-02

Like one other reviewer, I'm not sure what you guys were expecting. If you were expecting excellence, if you were expecting a CD that would be a favorite of yours, then that's your fault, not the CD producers' fault. This is a Barbie-themed item, so adults are obviously not the target market. Young girls are the audience for this CD. If you are not one of them, then you really don't have the right to speak on this. (And by the way, learn to spell, people. I can't possibly take you seriously when you use all lower-case and a gazillion exclamation points. If you want to spout venom, go do it on your chat boards somewhere else. We're looking for useful reviews here.)

There. Now, on to the review. My daughter is 4 and is already all-girl. She digs the "diva" stuff, everything that glitters, furry telephones and all that jazz. I encourage her to branch out to other things, like sports and science, but this is how she is; this is her "groove." So I acquiesce at times, like the day I bought this CD for her. Know what? She loves it.

Not to say that I am nuts about it, because I prefer Harry Connick Jr. and Sting and classic rock, and the local pop radio station is absolutely not on my car pre-sets. But I have heard so much worse. It's lots better than the Kidz Bop CD I bought a long time ago (and conveniently "lost" almost immediately afterward.) But again, I am not the target audience here; my daughter is.

This is a CD that, while it's not exactly my taste, I can bear playing for her enjoyment now and then without wanting to run myself through with the nearest sharp object. At times the back-up little-girl singers are off-key, and there are a couple songs I always fast-forward through, but for what it is, it's really not bad. If your daughter likes this kind of thing, she'll like this CD, and it's easier for adults to bear than the Kidz Bop tracks that I've heard.

Please.......2004-09-20

Barbie can't sing,come on all the songs sound so bad with that voice,atleast put the real voice so it would sound better.

pleasant mix of pop.......2004-07-17

Reading the reviews submitted so far, I can only guess at what others might have expected from a CD with Barbie on the front cover. I listened to the CD on-line, which isn't the best quality, and I was impressed. It's pretty clear what the producers were aiming to create: a fun, somewhat ecletic collection of songs by female singers. A pre-teen version of the "Women of Song" collection.

This CD is very easy to listen to, and while few of the songs will ever become "golden oldies", they are all well produced. As for the lyrics: yes, there are a few more gritty passages, mostly in the "teen angst" songs. Compared to many of the lyrics sung even on public radio, the songs on this album are mild.

I'd recommend purchasing this CD, with the caveat that many people have hightly negative reactions to artists like Britteney and Christine.

Retarded cd.......2004-07-05

this is a retarded, stupid, and hideous cd. don't waste ur money unless you like to cover your ears a lot. the little kids in the backround ruined the whole cd. THEY CAN'T SING! these songs were so forged! don't waste $14.99! what was mattel thinking?! it would better if you just bought all of the real cd's that were taken to put on this crappy cd. I didn't hear barbie in this cd either. wuts the point in that! the barbie on the cover is a bad role model. she scares me! she wears provocotive clothing! do u really want your kids to be like that! do you really want to hurt your kids ears at such a young age? kids don't even listen to these songs! they listen to barnie! when you think of barbie, you think ages 4-8. but do u really want your kids listening to lyrics like "shake it like a poloroid picture" and other mature lyrics?! bottom line...............DON'T BUY THIS PRODUCT! DO IT FOR THE HEALTH OF YOUR KIDS!

How stupid!.......2004-06-28

Stinkish-I totally agree with you 100%!!!! What was mattel thinking when they released this item? Some songs are ok, but "Hit me baby one more time?" That song is soooo old! And so yesterday, by lip singer, Hilary Duff, is sooooo yesterday!!!! You gotta be desperate for music to actually buy this or want it.If you think that i am way wrong then include me in your review.
