best lyrics ever
 
Go ahead and try
Try to look me in the eye
but you'll never see inside
untill you realize...

Thing are trying to settle down
Just trying to figure out
Exactly what I'm about
If it's with or without you
I don't need your doubt in me

Chorus:

If you trying to turn me into someone else it's easy to see
I'm not down with that (I'm nobody's fool) I'm nobody's fool
If you trying to turn me into something else
I've seen it enough and I'm over that
(I'm nobody's fool) I'm nobody's fool

If you wanna bring me down... go ahead and try! go ahead and try!go ahead and try!

would you be laughin out load if i played to my own crowd



avril is so amazin. punk needed her voice.

Thrice 05-08-2004 06:58 PM

You Really Think She Wrote That?

This Should Be In The Pop Forum Too!!

Pimp_racer 05-08-2004 08:18 PM

yea shes not punk at all

Kathryn 05-09-2004 01:53 PM

yeah i've got to agree.
Also, I hate to say this but Avril Levine embodies what, in my opinion is wrong with punk music today. Her music is not original and fits into the same mold as most other pop songs, about boys meeting girls, breaking up ect ect ect. All this would be fine IF SHE DIDN'T CONSIDER HERSELF PUNK! punk isn't just someone wearing slightly rockerish clothes, punk is a set of ideals, political and social. So having a little pop tart like her running around makes people think that she represents what punk is but she doesn't at all, so now we have all these people out there thinking they're punks, but they're the same as they were before, without any oroginal ideas, just wearing black. It pisses me off.
But i will say, i think she's got a great voice :hphones:

jibber 05-09-2004 06:40 PM

meh, i can't stand her voice, or her for that matter. she acts like she's so origninal and above all the marketing ploys that other artists use, but the reality is that she's just as contrived as any boyband. but then again she's making a ****load of money so i doubt she gives a crap what anyone thinks of her. still doesn't make her less of a whiney, annoying little brat.

westlife4evah 05-09-2004 08:11 PM

did any of you see her on saturday night live this week? she really tore it up on the guitar, y'all....



the new album seems like it will be just as hardcore as the hardest good charlotte or blink 182. she rocks harder than the goo goo dolls did on their best day. :usehead:

jibber 05-09-2004 08:20 PM

hahahahaha
(if you're not being sarcastic, well then...don't really know what to say to that....)

Thrice 05-10-2004 09:02 PM

Ha ha yeah i hope that was sarcasm....
"Lifestyles of the rich and famous"...real hardcore stuff...i mean they wear black, they must be hardcore. But anyways, she would be cool if she admitted she wasnt punk, straight up popness and lost the *** canadien look. You obviously are not familiar with the older Goo Goo Dolls. They used to be a punk band back in the day... you should check them out. Tore it up on the guitar? Yes, i witnessed the display of bar chords and simple tablature, it was great she came close to Teppei (Thrice) and Jimi Hendrix with her amazing skills. (Yeah that was sarcasm Jibber.) I saw that one video where she walked in the rain...HARDCORE!! Oh yeah, and when she smashed the guitar on the car...Seriously if shes breaking guitars she must ne hardcore!(Yeah that was sarcasm too Jibber.)

Kathryn 05-11-2004 12:18 AM

ha ha ha nice one.
But what's the matter with having a 'Canadian look'? What's wrong with Canadians?Canada's an awesome country and, last time I checked, we look just fine. Besides, the Canadian look really isn't distinguishable from the Americans.

Thrice 05-11-2004 08:35 AM

Ha ha...I knew I'd catch heat from that one. It had nothing to do with Canada at all...I was just in a bad mood. Sorry if i offended you.

Pimp_racer 05-11-2004 02:52 PM

damn nick stop makin fun of peopoles countries and yea i mean she should just admit shes not punk

Thrice 05-11-2004 04:02 PM

I forgot where i read it...but she actually proclaimed she was "punk"

Thrice 05-11-2004 04:03 PM

http://www.deansplanet.com/nomakeup_avril.html

Shes a hot one without make-up...

Thrice 05-11-2004 04:08 PM

http://groups.msn.com/THEANTIAVRILLA...tatements.msnw

This is when she says shes punk...

Kathryn 05-11-2004 04:43 PM

No worries, talking about avril levine gets me in a bad mood too. (she's just SO...annoying)

jibber 05-11-2004 08:52 PM

haha, thanks for pointing out when you were being sarcastic thrice, otherwise I actually would have thought avril was up there with jimi hendrix (ya sarcasm, wow, lots of this in this thread). buuuttt enough with that, interesting comment about the "canadian" look, what exactly is a "canadian look"? oh, and just so you know, i'm ashamed that she comes out of our country, but then again you guys have nsync and the backstreet boys.

IamAlejo 05-12-2004 07:27 PM

I'm gonna X out this window, turn the screen off, and then turn it back on. Then pretend I never saw this thread.

Pimp_racer 05-12-2004 07:29 PM

lol nice man yea i know noone that really likes punk likes avril

jibber 05-12-2004 10:02 PM

^ how bout no one who really likes music likes avril

Pimp_racer 05-13-2004 02:10 PM

yea true true lol

Thrice 05-13-2004 08:56 PM

Harsh Jib...i Dunno Whats Up With The Canadien Thing...i Was Just Being A **** Sorry.

jibber 05-13-2004 10:29 PM

haha, ya well she just bothers me, plus i was in a bad mood from failing a physics exam, buuuuttt thats a different topic

MobilizeTerror 05-18-2004 01:27 PM

I use to fight about this crap all night, what is and what is not punk. But who cares... it is just music anyway, right?

IamAlejo 05-18-2004 02:03 PM

I'm not saying its not punk...which its not...im just saying it s-ucks no matter what you call it.

MobilizeTerror 05-21-2004 03:01 PM

She really isnt a bad singer, and the band isnt a bad... It just isnt my kind of music I guess...

starEied 05-22-2004 12:16 AM

blah blah blah its all the same, from promise ring and sunnyday to death cab, allister and brand new.. old and new one built off the other it s music, label it, its punk.. just try not to fit it in a genre.. you have to.. put it in a sub genre, stick it somewhere..it ll fit somewhere.. nothing is origional

brokenheartsandfallenhero 05-23-2004 02:58 PM

ok for starters that comment about that crap good charlotte and blink 182 being Hardcore made me laugh so hard I mean come on they could not be further from hardcore lol lol lol... next off lets stop giving that little liar avril and talk about something more interesting for example calculus or the constitution jk jk lets just get back on the subject of good lyrics like
"You're down for selling me out
while I play dumb
its cool cuz I let you
Thought I'd Never catch you
you say you're only friends
yeah real good friends I bet I bet"
The Ballad Of Sal Villanueva TBS

Who_Cares 05-29-2004 08:14 PM

I think all of you are being a little hard on westlife for liking Avril, everyone likes their own music, you shouldnt be prosecuting he/her for liking what he/her like... thatd be like a country or rapper guy saying that TBS and Finch sucks, lol, everyone in here would be pissed and fell like ****...

tikikitty 06-23-2004 03:38 PM

All u avril haters, u suck!!!! sry, i didn't mean it... its just i like avril and i get really annoyed when people start dissing her and i dont care u have proof she doesn't really want to put herself in any d*** category, she's just there!!!! so if u dont like it, deal, but quit calling her a poser when she doesn't even want to be punk in the first place!!!

jibber 06-24-2004 12:01 AM

^ I just have a problem with her because she always goes on and on and puts other artists down for being "caught up in image" when she's just as marketed and packaged as any backstreet boy. I just find her really hypocritical, thats all.

Pimp_racer 06-24-2004 07:57 PM

did u not look at that statement thrice put up were she says she plays punk music?

covle 06-27-2004 12:53 AM

avrils doesnt consider herself punk. i read an article that quoted her as saying:"i dont know why everybody sees me as this badass pubk chik with no respect for the rulkes. im not even a punk!". is that not the stupidest thing youv ever read? her manager does though. you know that before she "made it big" she did a duet with celine dion in canada? but she is one of the things that is really sh!tting me in music. she is one of the leading factors that is popularising punk. she is getting all the 12 yr olds into "punk" and then into bands like simple plan and blink (i have no respect for such bands...sorry to anybody out there)
and then they rock up to festivals and gigs and act so tough like they know all there is about music and they come in here and bitch about bands that play for their fans, not their record labels. punk begun as an underground movement. i would hate to see it become the top 40 and that crap. that would ruin the genre and kill off the true "punk" bands. doesnt "punk" mean to go against the mainstream anyway? let us all hope that the genre does not get overrun by the corporations and ceo's of the music industry today

LaxPaddy 06-27-2004 08:16 AM

ive always liked these lyrics.

Landing on a runway in Chicago, and im grounding all my dreams,
of ever really seeing California, because i know whats in between.
its something sensual, in such non-conventional ways.
Tonight the headphones will deliver you the words that i cant say.
Tonight im writing you, a million miles away.

Tonight is all about "we miss you"
Tonight is all about we miss you now.
and i cant forget your smile, or your cynicism.
some how it was like you were the first to listen, to everything, we said.
my smiles an open wound without you and my hands are tied to pages inked to bring you back.

Tonight the headphones will deliver you the words that i cant say..

-Fall Out Boy - :Homesick at Spacecamp:

fuzzyducky 06-28-2004 01:25 AM

[B]I like that Lax! I'm trying to download it right now! My boyfriend has they're CD and he usualy had good taste so I might like them.

fuzzyducky 06-29-2004 01:07 AM

oops!
 
My bad, I don't think he has that CD.

fuzzyducky 06-29-2004 01:07 AM

oops!
 
My bad, I don't think he has that CD. :usehead:

the last one 06-29-2004 04:36 AM

Avril would be better if she wasn't on the cover of all the kids magazines and on kids programmes and stuff. She says she hates people calling her stuff pop music. Maybe she should stop making it then. She acts like she's a skater, but she actually admitted she can't skate. I reckon she should go away for a year, learn how to play better, change the image and then she can come back.
I'm not trying to cause offence, just disscussion.

fuzzyducky 06-29-2004 12:56 PM

None takin

LaxPaddy 07-06-2004 10:18 PM

IM me - leftcoastenvy447
