Crazy Frog: More Crazy Hits

It is albums like this that break the hearts of any self-respecting music fan, especially when the debut single of this “artist” was number one in the UK charts for four weeks last year. We hate to break it to you guys, but Crazy Frog is back with his second album, the ingeniously titled More Crazy Hits.

Basically the producers have picked on singers trying to make it into the music industry, recorded them singing karaoke classics and then mixed “the frog” over the top. As a result those singers can just kiss goodbye to ever being taken seriously. Particular low points are Nellie The Elephant and DJ Otzi Hey Baby, which they have managed to make even more annoying than it was originally. What a feat!

There are some moments on this album though that are so bad that they are (almost) good. These include a rendition of Right Said Fred’s I’M TOO SEXY and CRAZY YODELLING, which does exactly what it says on the tin. Trust me, it is musical hell! The most concerning tracks however are those that sound like they’re going to be cool until Crazy Frog kicks in, these include CRAZY FROG IN THE HOUSE and ROCK STEADY. It’s ok if you find yourself nodding along to the start of these tracks, but if it continues it is time to call in the doctor.

The only good things about this CD are that it makes a groovy coaster when turned upside down, and can be used as a mini-frisbee when you are caught short in the park. There are no more positive points to this CD that shouldn’t even be described as an album.
Avoid this at all costs and scowl at anyone you hear playing it. And may be we could all join together for a Crazy Frog amnesty and create a lovely pile of burning CDs.
