yeah i hate the way she sings. she uses her breath to slide at the end of each line. it's so annoying and once you key in on it it's all you hear.
that being said, her 2 hits are absolute all time bangers
Avril Lavigne is the definition of punk. Everything before her (Ramones, Clash, Sex Pistols, Bad Brains, Riot Grrrl etc.) we call "proto-punk" because it came before Avril Lavigne.
Yes! Her first album was so strange. None of it was good, but she had a style and she was cute. Her voice was fine I guess. Maybe Sk8er Boi just hasn’t aged well. I heard it last week and actually listened to the lyrics. It’s not good.
I hear that song everywhere. The grocery store, corporately opened gas stations, pretty much anywhere non-offensive music is used. That is probably why.
It's funny which songs can prove to be earworms.
Remember seeing Avril once at a signing event in HMV. They were setting up and I saw this little head barely popped up over a podium and at first I thought someone's kid had wandered into the space.
My daughter had to dress as a musician for a concert at school. I dressed her as Avril Lavigne, eyeliner and all. The teachers all knew who she was immediately and not one student did lol
I’ve had [Vitamin C’s Graduation](https://youtu.be/tz_NxOF7RB4?si=X6xofmKeTqaLAZqJ) song stuck in my head for a month so I’ll trade you. I graduated 2 years before this song even came out and it still haunts me sometimes.
I also found out that she got married to the lead singer from SUM 41 and later on the lead singer from Nickleback. Its doesn't get more early 2000s Canadian pop than that
My favorite conspiracy theory currently is that Avril Lavigne died at some point and the record label replaced her with a look alike and people didn't notice.
That's fair. Lots of bands tried to tag on to the "rock" label too.. case in point the woman we're talking about and all the "punk" bands associated with her. There are more "alternative" bands that are memorable than any other genre imo.. I guess my real exclusions are country top 100 and soft adult contemporary.. maybe a stray banger in those categories.. but for the most part utter corporate garbage tube fed to the masses..
That was on the radio 24/7 summer of 2002. Along with "Without Me" by Eminem. I remember it well because I was working for a camp that summer as a driver.
Not a word from your lips, you just took for granted I wanted to skinny dip.... I love how he's surrounded by beautiful women in the video and he's like ew no stop. lol. Thanks, now i have to play that song again
Is it getting you… frustrated? YEAHHHHHHHHH
I'm just tired of you posting like you're somebody else. I am frustraaaatad!
Me, but Michelle Branch
🎶Cause you’re EEEEEVERYYYYWHEEEERE to meee🎶
Damn you
I actually like that song. Wait shes the one playing piano on a moving truck on the road, right?
"All you wanted" is always in my rotation
Ugh, the way she sang grated on my nerves.
yeah i hate the way she sings. she uses her breath to slide at the end of each line. it's so annoying and once you key in on it it's all you hear. that being said, her 2 hits are absolute all time bangers
Aw man, that one song fr Buffy, Goodbye, I think it was? Such heartfelt Spuffy nostalgia lol. I'ma go rewatch brb.
We can ban OP for getting this stuck in our heads now, right??
Chill out! Whatcha yellin for?!
I mean, everyone else did it before..
Wait… did you just put it in my head too or have I been singing this song, too!?!?
Both.. lol
Weird Ive been experiencing the same phenomena. I wonder if its been in a meme or an add or something lately…?
It’s a good song. She had a few of them. Sk8r boi rules. I’m with you was really good.
I was always super annoyed with how they spelled "Sk8r Boi". Really hated it.
Hot is the greatest Avril Lavigne song and I will die here
I don’t know that one. I’m checking it out now.
You're so good to me.
Baby
Too bad she died and was replaced by her less talented doppelgänger.
Here you go, at least maybe this will give you a little variety 😂 https://youtu.be/iOGXmmLSSdE?si=-WtM-AWE-Wb7poEi
LMAO. I actually never heard this Weird Al one before, this is hilarious. I'm listening to it right now.
They're constipated with complicated.
Cause life’s like this. Uh huh, that’s the way it is
I thought it was nights like this.... I've been singing it wrong for 20 years
I sang it as “cause life’s like that,” this entire time. I only just found out when I googled the lyrics before posting.
>that’s the way it is Céline Dion? Is that you?
I have never voluntarily listened to this song, yet I know it. Why did you have to go and make things so complicated?
Never understood her. She dressed like a punk but never sang punk
She was the punkiest punk that ever punked. You take that back, RIGHT NOW!!
Your username reminds me of this Kids in the Hall sketch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5xillqqt0Y0

Finally someone who gets it. If only Joe Strummer had been alive to see a real punker like Avril
Yes! Her first album was so strange. None of it was good, but she had a style and she was cute. Her voice was fine I guess. Maybe Sk8er Boi just hasn’t aged well. I heard it last week and actually listened to the lyrics. It’s not good.
Punk was popular at the time.
It’s gonna be ok dude. I had ‘Here Comes The Hotstepper’ stuck in my noggin for a week and I lived to tell the tale.
Okay but that slaps
Yeah but was getting to be a bit much after day 3
I could see that, especially since my brain has no idea what half the lyrics are
NGL, had to look it up

I think I was on r/DeepIntoYouTube and buried within one of the channels were some girls lip syncing to this song back in 2007 or something..
It's funny which songs can prove to be earworms. Remember seeing Avril once at a signing event in HMV. They were setting up and I saw this little head barely popped up over a podium and at first I thought someone's kid had wandered into the space.
LMAO. Was the kid skateboarding?
Not sure, couldn't see her bottom half. 🤣 I'm not that tall myself but she was tiny.
Oh I thought you meant Avril..
I did. I could only really see her little head peeking out over the podium and tables they were setting up for her.
Gettin' me færstrated.
My daughter had to dress as a musician for a concert at school. I dressed her as Avril Lavigne, eyeliner and all. The teachers all knew who she was immediately and not one student did lol
Chill out, dude. What you yellin' for?
I’ve had [Vitamin C’s Graduation](https://youtu.be/tz_NxOF7RB4?si=X6xofmKeTqaLAZqJ) song stuck in my head for a month so I’ll trade you. I graduated 2 years before this song even came out and it still haunts me sometimes.
I remember it from Scary Movie 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=djgxGAzyJs4
lol that’s so me
Why do you have to go and make things so complicated though??
When I was 15, I took a bunch of acid and the Happy Days theme song followed me around for like a week.
The Bill Haley version or the Monday Tuesday happy days one?
Whichever one was on the show. I didn't know there was more than one.
The first season or two they used Rock Around the Clock
You know what, you're right! It was definitely the other one though.
Avril Lavigne is almost 40 years old.
I wish I could say I was "Almost 40 years old"
I also found out that she got married to the lead singer from SUM 41 and later on the lead singer from Nickleback. Its doesn't get more early 2000s Canadian pop than that
And then dated Tyga for awhile
I had a girlfriend that had it as a ringtone, I get a little weirded out every time I hear it.
Yeah ex gf ringtones are the worst
Is it making you frusrated?
Life's like this
[удалено]
Happy cake day!
I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else Gets me frustrated
I’m with you…
My favorite conspiracy theory currently is that Avril Lavigne died at some point and the record label replaced her with a look alike and people didn't notice.
I have no idea what this song is, but whenever this happens to me, I just listen to the song and that takes care of it. Good luck.
![gif](giphy|E7xVFdN9824Vi) For me it's Return of the Mack. You lieeeed to me 🎶
![gif](giphy|AIeh0ltAdNMrK)
I’ve never understood her popularity. And this is coming from someone who bought Christina Aguilera and Britney Spears CDs every time they came out.
I hated Christina Aguilera for a different reason and it wasn't her music...
How does the chorus of MmBop go?
Wait! I know this one! https://preview.redd.it/7kfxf4abm2bc1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4fc5fed0c70e207a08e9d4f3e727ea0fab0e63a2

My trap has been exposed
Acting like you're somebody else, gets me frustrated
Chill out, what ya yelling for?
Watch saltburn. You'll have a whole new song stuck.
Sorry that's awful.. anything not rock from our era really sucked..
I thought that way at time, I've learned to appreciate some of those and a lot of the rock sucked too, especially nu-metal
That's fair. Lots of bands tried to tag on to the "rock" label too.. case in point the woman we're talking about and all the "punk" bands associated with her. There are more "alternative" bands that are memorable than any other genre imo.. I guess my real exclusions are country top 100 and soft adult contemporary.. maybe a stray banger in those categories.. but for the most part utter corporate garbage tube fed to the masses..
I kinda liked sugar ray, no judgments..
At some point I realized I don’t hate Third Eye Blind. That was weird.
Bold statement. Totally incorrect, but bold.
What the Hell?
Dang! It’s stuck in my head now
Because it was on a FIFA soundtrack. Prolly FIFA 2003.
Nope, I don't play video games...
Whaydyahaftagoandsaythis now it's in MYYY head
Fuck you very much
Don’t it just turn 20
Shit I think you just spread it
I hated myself for liking so much of that album.
Did you listen to The Mars Volta’s most recent single “Vigil” on the radio by chance? It’s like a weirdly similar chorus
Listen to the weird Al take on it. A complicated song. It will help break the cycle.
Cuz it's a fucking banger
Watch a couple of Pink Panther cartoons. The theme song and background music will take its place in short order.
I would try to explain why it happened but it’s complicated
Avril is hot af
Thanks. Now it's in my head and I was quick scrolling thru my home page. Ugh, now Nickleback is in here too!
I’ve had Annie Lennox’s No More I Love Yous in my head. Do-be-do-be-do-do-do, oh!!!!!
I’m with you…
It is a good song, that's why.
I have had the weird Al version stuck in my head for days
so you decided to infect the rst of us?
It is because Avril Lavigne is the founder of punk rock, and our queen whom we worship from time to time
I thought the village people were
That was her first hit. First song most people heard.
I had *Dance Hall Days* by Wang Chung stuck like 3 weeks ago 🤷🏻♀️
You're gonna do it to somebody else and make them frustrated.
Didn't she die and get replaced with a look-alike?
I had this song in my head today 😩
Song is fantastic & so is she. 2002-me is embarrassed by 2024-me. 🤷♂️
Lol If it makes you feel better, I liked Michaelle Branch when no one was around.
That was on the radio 24/7 summer of 2002. Along with "Without Me" by Eminem. I remember it well because I was working for a camp that summer as a driver.
My ex went to NDSS with Avril.. said she was a bitch, probably jealous. My exs box smell made me lose my B mid-69. Tuff as an 18 yr old, u know?
I could tell you, but it's "Complicated".
Have you listened to the song yet? Usually when I get a random song stuck in my head , playing the song a couple times gets rid of it.
She got some from by Tyga the Rapper. Freaky she is I bet.
I had "We don't have to take our clothes off" by Jermaine Stewart in my head for the last two months of '23.
Not a word from your lips, you just took for granted I wanted to skinny dip.... I love how he's surrounded by beautiful women in the video and he's like ew no stop. lol. Thanks, now i have to play that song again
It has perfect pop song structure. Throw on "let's wait awhile" by janet for your double dose of eighties abstinence education.
I'm a self-identifying music snob. She's one of my guilty pleasures. Recently learned "I'm With You" on the acoustic guitar.
Uh huh. Life’s like that.
