View Full Version : I sorta like Avril Lavigne

Don't ask me why. There's nothing really compelling about her music. The best explanation I can think of is that Alanis Morrisette got big when I was in high school, and I see some similarities between the two. AL doesn't seem quite nearly as bitter, though. She's really an "Alanis Light"
Basically, I think if I were in high school again, I'd probably listen to her music.

Oh man, I sort of draw the line when a person uses numbers to spell words in her songs. Didn't she have a song spelled as follows: Sk8ter Boi? Anyways, I can't rip on you b/c I actually liked a song by Britney Spears--Toxic.

Alanis was big when you were in high school. So you're 25. Liking Avril Lavigne at that age is beyond gay.

Actually I'm 27...
The title of my post is that I "sorta" like her. I won't be buying any of her CDs anytime soon. But if "Complicated" comes on XM in the car, I won't change the station.

Seriously. Bigdaddy should definitely hate on Avril Lavigne, mainly because most other people do. He's at an age where he's better off setting his preferences based on the reactions of those around him. If his friends hate Avril half as much as the other posters in this thread do, the answer is clear. There's a certain point in a person's life where it's ok to like or dislike things without taking others' reactions into account. That point is definitely after age 27, though. Probably closer to 38.
Sk8r Boi is the worst. Man, that song is way too catchy to be good. And it has a number in the title.

Haven't read any responses in this thread. I'm sure they say you're gay or have $hitty taste. They are wrong. Avril rules.

"Complicated" is an awesome song.

Do not be ashamed, it's impossible not to like this song. That is as long as you have decent taste in all forms of music.

Don't feel bad about that. Ignoring her singing the beat to Toxic is one of the best this year. I fully support liking this song.
Plus the video is umm... arsty.

Sk8ter Boi is an awful song...I readily concede this. It was I think her first release, geared to get the teenie bopper crowd on board before her better music was released. This is an acceptable method used in the music biz.
Remember, Christina Aguilera first released "Genie in a Bottle." She would later go on to sing "Dirty"

I think she's cute except for the way over the top eye make-up that looks like something a drunken street whore slopped on after 20 drinks. I've only heard a couple of her songs, and seen her perform them a couple of times. A little phoney and overwrought with teen angst, but not nearly as self-pitying and dreary as lots of female pop music.
In a way, looking for quality in bubblegum pop music is kind of silly anyway. This stuff is made to sell, not to listen to. It's the youth equivalent of elevator music.

There is something about her pseudo-punk wanabee attitude that makes me want to slap her in the side of her face with my member.....in a good way.

Agreed. I too would enjoy such slappage. If I were her parents, I would tell her to clean up her room and stop talking on the phone so much.

Sk8r Boi is not awful. It is cool. He was a sk8r boi, said see you later boi. Man, is that catchy.

There's better catchy songs than that one. I just don't get why she felt the need to spell the word "boy" incorrectly. I mean fine, maybe I could see numbers making a word look cooler, but spelling a three letter word wrong is just stupid.
Also, to those who say she's hot, I completely disagree. She looks like a chihuahua. My buddies told me my ex looked like Avril, and I think that led to our breakup; what a huge insult.

all she did was rip of her style from anlanis morsette.
Blarg
09-18-2005, 05:43 PM
She's nowhere near as annoying or self-righteous as Morrisette though. I can actually listen to Avril without leaping up to mute the volume. Morrisette just sounds like nobody I'd like to know.

If she wasn't hot no one would like her non-talent singing.

Edit: and no, I wouldn't mind if she wanted to have her music playing in the background.

These posts seem a little too similar:
BadAdviceGuy: Sk8r Boi is the worst. Man, that song is way too catchy to be good.
El Diablo: Sk8r Boi is not awful. It is cool. He was a sk8r boi, said see you later boi. Man, is that catchy.
Coincidence?
