Hot off the "Elmo wants to die" fiasco of 20 odd 5, a new Elmo toy controversy has arrisen. Arroze...Arrozzen...Arroz con Pollo....

A new Elmo controversy has taken place.

(forgive me... I'm watching super Chicken at the moment)/

A new report of a muffled comment made by an Elmo toy has surfaced. Recently, an Elmo singing toy that croons the song "Shout!" garbled it's lyrics in a violent matter.

This time the owner of the toy could have sworn she heard Elmo sing "Beat up Elmo! " and "pull your fur out!"

Once again, the compression of sound files was it's undoing.

But seriously... who would have guessed a high pitched voice singing against loud music compressed into a small file would ever have any sound distortions.

Fisher Price, the Maker of the toy had this statement:

"You can clearly hear that Elmo isn't singing this at all! In fact what he's really singing is 'MRRRMMPHHHmmmpRhhh Mmpprrrppphhmmm Mrrppphmmm Elmo Mrrrphhhffff ffffffmmmmmppp mpomfoppf!'"

Okay, i made that last one up!
