Visit http://www.zipperfish.com Avril Lavigne's song "Girlfriend" sounds a lot like a 1970's song "I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend" by The Rubinoos. You decide.

  • it just " hey hey you you i wanna be bla bla bla" that the same

  • @iwantmorejam The writers may have altered it a little but it's essentially the same.

  • First of all, she never claimed to be punk rock. Secondly, it's not that 'real' punk is that musically challenging either. Being able to name 6 punk bands sounds like knowing something about it to me.

    btw I'd like to hear some of your music too ^^

  • @violetgirl1996 Well, duh. Punk rock never gets played on the radio. She thinks/tries to make people think she is, though. That's what the commentor below me is talking about too.

  • @shakesula21 avril's not punk-rock

  • Avril Lavigne isn't a real musician/songwriter, unless you consider such a low level of abilty actual songwriting, but that would be foolish because then anyone could just do anything terrible and call it music. She doesn't even know anything about punk rock, which is fine except for the fact that she reps it like she knows about it. If anyone ever asked her what kind of punk bands she likes she'd name like 3 or 4 classic bands that eveyone knows, and like one or two obscure ones to sound smart.

  • @NeoVictorianX Why are you stealing the posts I want to make? You must be some kind of Avril...er asshole.

  • @iwantmorejam The odds of that alone happening is slim to none. And the melody and beat were similar.
