Default Avril Lavigne - Girlfriend

Anyone heard Avril's new single Girlfriend? It's from her forthcoming album Best Damn Thing. Saw the vid this morning and was not impessed. It reminds me of one of Kelly Osbournes old songs. (not the Madonna cover) I thought her new album was to have a much maturer sound, but I think this song sounds far less mature than her first album. I'm not a die-hard Avril fan but I do have both her albums and enjoyed them, but Girlfriend is embarressing.

Here's the video anyway.


[EDIT - 06/03/2007]

And here's the tracklist for The Best Damn Thing, released April 17th;



1. Contagious
2. Everything Back But You
3. The Best Damn Thing
4. Runaway
5. Hot
6. I Can Do Better
7. Girlfriend
8. When You're Gone
9. Keep Holding On
10. Innocence
11. I Don't Have to Try
12. One of Those Girls
13. I Wear the Pants
14. Alone

I've also heard a snippet of Everything Back But You and whilst a marginal improvement over Girlfriend, it's still yet another bubblegum hard pop song. Looks like that's the sort of album we're in for. Although I hope I'm proved wrong.

Well she still looks pretty fit, I guess that's the main thing I'm not a huge fan of the song, but I think it will grow on me for sure. I do like a nice blonde rock chick

Hmmm, Yeah she does look fit in her latest video, but I think she looked nicer in her Skater Boi vid. I couldn't get enough of that video at the time. I just had a look on Google for her pics, but it would appear she hasn't really done many photo-shots....

I loved Avril's last album but this song is not the best at all. It's like that song, "Hey Johny, you're so fine, you're so fine, you blow my mind".

Oddly enough, I decided this morning that I really felt like downloading a few of her songs and giving them a listen ... I'm actually surprised at how much I do like some of them. Bit of a guilty pleasure I think. I also wondered if she'd have a new album out soon, haven't heard the song yet but I'm sure it'll be all over the place before long
