Yes, I gave it a 9. It def is one of her best tunes , but she has others which get less radio / podcast play as well.
I have always loved her young chirpy voice and she is waaaaaaaaay better than any Gaga, Beyonce' and Rhianna crapshit. Apart from being a very sexy lass , Avril is talented and can play guitar. My 4 fav young pop lasses of today are Avril, Lana del Rey, Aimee Mann (less young:)) and Taylor Swift :):):):):)
 
I remember this chick used to be a thing back in the early 2000s? She had a sing where the first lines were "He was a boy and she was a girl" Those lines always stuck with me. Pure poetry.

Sign of the times I guess :):):)....I prefer girl girls :):)
 
Overplayed trash. Well below average even if we're just counting female Canadian pop singers of her era. Musicians who are actually good like Feist or Sarah Slean will embarrass her so badly that it's not even funny.

Far-fetched comment. NO artists attract embarrassment more than crapshit Gaga, Beyonce and Rhianna :):)....and remember, we're talking pop here , which, by the way is 99% crap anyway :)

Can't really comment on Gaga, Beyonce, et al. Heard their some of their songs, thought they sucked, and that was the end of that.

As for pop, does the vast majority of it suck? Sure. But that doesn't change the fact that Avril is pretty mediocre within the genre especially when compared to her Canadian contemporaries. Forget about Sarah Slean and Feist, even Nelly Furtado who I think is pretty average at best has better songs.

Oh Nelly's ok, but some of her arrangements aren't that good....but overall good singer. Can't say about SS above, will give a listen ......ty

Sarah Slean is pretty much unknown outside of Canada, unfortunate, since I think she's one of the better songwriters of the 2000s, but understandable since she can be a bit eccentric. Best 2 albums to start with IMO are Night Bugs and The Baroness.

Well, if you wanted to impress me, you did a fantastic job man ! She's really talented, great arrangements and lovely vocals ...and her eyes, OMG, her eyes .....stunning beauty !! I'm her fan now !! Thx man :):):)
 
I liked I'm With You, but was never interested in anything else Avril did. I actually thought Chad was more interesting, and you know who he sang for lol.
 
I just played this song a few hours ago with my band. My co-lead sings it, I play rhythm and sing harmonies on the chorus. I don't really give a rockin hoot about Avril Lavigne but it's a fun song to play
 
I'll give it a 5, I don't particularly like it but it's a perfectly acceptable pop song.

I think girlfriend was her best song though, the ridiculously over the top popness of that one kinda worked.
