At last I speak!
I have observed people's love and backlash against Avril for quiet some time now. And here is what I have to say. Avril Lavigne is quiet possibly the most fake person in the music industry. More fake than Britney Spears even. Avril writes her own songs: WRONG! She writes them with the help of about three other PROFESSIONAL POP songwriters. Meaning that she contributed maybe a line or two. She has guitar-playing talent. WRONG! She holds the guitar and poses with it in pictures in order to look cool. She can't actually play it or else she would play it live, but she doesn't. Her band does. She's punk. WRONG! She's pop-rock. And not even good pop-rock like maybe Savage Garden or Matchbox 20, both of whom can be creative and write far more meaningful lyrics. She can sing. WRONG! One only needs to see and hear her live to realize that she has no singing voice and that her voice is perfectly synthesized. She never claimed to be punk. WRONG! When she first appeared she claimed that she re-invented punk-rock for this generation and was this generation's Sid Vicious (never mind that later she admitted that she didn't even know who Sid Vicious was). She ultimately is just some wannabe who was picked by a major record label to cash in on Britney's now-waning fan-base with the same safe, bubblegummy songs about puppy love that shallow people eat up. That is all
