Review - :
"He's lean, he's mean, and he's green!" says the intro track to {$Crazy Frog}'s second album, {^More Crazy Hits}, overlooking that his odd powder-blue shade is part of {$the Frog}'s craziness. {^Crazy Hits} featured about an equal amount of {$Crazy Frog}'s vocal stylings and session vocalists, but this time around, {$the Frog} is almost completely relegated to the sidelines. Much like {$the Kidz Bop Kids}, who merely sing backup on their namesake collections of {\pop} covers, {$Crazy Frog} only contributes the odd "ding a dang dong" here and there on {^More Crazy Hits}' 11 songs. Amazingly, {$Crazy Frog} didn't exhaust the supply of {\novelty} dance hits on his first album; the versions of {&"Cotton Eyed Joe,"} {&"Ice Ice Baby,"} and {&"Blue"} -- a song that was almost all babble to begin with -- that appear here are just as silly as the songs on {^Crazy Hits}. It's not until the album's last track, {&"Copa Banana,"} that {$Crazy Frog} finally gets to really unleash a stream of his trademark gibberish, but there are a few bright moments elsewhere: the World Cup-friendly version of {&"We Are the Champions"} and {&"Rock Steady"} keep it simple and stupid, while the sheer weirdness of hearing the early-'60s {\pop} classic {&"Hey Baby"} reworked as {\novelty} {\Euro-dance} makes it another highlight. [An enhanced edition was released in 2006.] ~ Heather Phares, All Music Guide
