Kidz Bop Christmas Wish List, the Kidz Bop franchise's fourth holiday collection, replaces the lusty Katy Perry and Pitbull covers of their flagship albums with some gleamingly wholesome yuletide favorites. The playlist for Wish List looks awfully similar to previous holiday collections with "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town," "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree," and "Frosty the Snowman" still mainstays in their repertoire, though the 2014 collection no doubt features the latest group of Kidz on vocals. As reliable and peppy as the holidays themselves, these 14 tracks sound exactly like Kidz Bop Kids singing Christmas songs. File it next two the other four collections. ~ Timothy Monger
