Think there's a support group somewhere? Maybe we could start one...

Take the word "dead" and think of all the rhyming words. Thread, head, ...dead. Yeah, now you know the lyrics from the first 30 seconds of one of her songs.
Her crap makes me long for better crap like Kelly Clarkson and {fill in the blank with another forgettable female pop idol}.

The pseudo-irony of your last comment is that she actually wrote for Kelly Clarkson. :lol:

Also, rhyming is considered a central part of a lot of poetry, and by extension, music. :)

OFKUO: By top 3 strings are you talking the three that are physically on top, or the 3 highest strings? I should know this, but I haven't learned anything technical about guitar in years.

I like Lavigne, but she's no Morissette.

Asta!!

However, most of these pop artists have one or two listenable tunes, and I would never buy any of their CD's with prices these days.

But..I just can't get enough of Avril. I love every single one of her songs; I own both cd's and even have a picture of her as my computer wallpaper. Mind you, I think the whole Sk8rrr rock punk ass girl routine is stupid and tired, and her songs are blatently emo and for the most part, pretty much the same.

Nonetheless..I just can't get enough.


thought I should share my obsession with someone
