Silly as it may sound, I was doing that years before she started. Damn it. BTW, how many 17 year old girls do you know that know who Bowie is? I mean really know, not just having heard his name. |

And I'm not saying she needs to memorize his whole catalog either. Basic information about someone as influential as David Bowie is fine: His beginnings as Ziggy Stardust The titles to a few of his songs. And how to pronounce HIS FREAKIN' NAME.

As for Avril.. Well, I don't hate her, but I don't really vibe with her music, because her voice isn't the easiest for me to personally deal with. About Christina Aguilera.. I would have to say she is less like Spear Britney now than she was when she first came out. And it's okay if everyone disagrees with me, but the girl -can- sing. I personally don't give a damn about her image and what she looks like. She's got a good set of pipes.

She seems like a cute girl to have a picnic with. A little young for me, tho.

It seems that every so often the music industry chews up some teenage blonde-haired bimbo and spits her out at us in an attempt to sell us on looks. In the past several years we’ve been “graced” with the wonderful talents of Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Mandy Moore, Jessica Simpson, and countless, nameless clones of them. The formula has always been simple: Take a blonde haired girl with a half-decent rack, a Monster Booty, and a voice that can break glass, add in some lyric writers and a few uglier chicks who can dance (and a few gay little men) who wear matching clothing, and POOF – you have an overnight musical sensation.
To make matters worse, pop isn’t going away quite yet. We now have American Idol which most of you people out there watch, not realizing that you are contributing to the pop music era’s lifespan and ensuring plenty more LIKE Britney, Christina, and other stupid bitches for years to come. If you want a British guy to insult you and tell you you’re worthless then my UK friend Deerokus’ AIM screen-name is deerokus1 and I’m pretty fucking sure that he’ll insult you or another person’s musical talent or lack thereof for free. Anyway, the music industry realizes that pop is a temporary novelty that will eventually die, especially being that Christina Aguilera looks like she hasn’t bathed in centuries and Britney Spears’ has more fake parts inside her than Johnny-5 of Short Circuit fame. CEO 1: What ever shall we do? We’re running out of stupid blondes to exploit! CEO 2: I have a plan B… Something more sinister! We’re going to take over rock music! CEO 1: Yes, but guys just don’t dig Nickelback and Creed. They have dicks and sing about morality. What shall we do? CEO 2: Trust me. CEO 1: We better do it fucking quick then; those fucking Russians have us corned on exploiting lesbians to sell records… Now, Avril is allegedly “different” from Britney Spears and Christina, or at least that’s what we’ve been told by MTV. What makes Avril different? Read the Avrilifacts below... ---She carries a skateboard and wears a fucking tie because she is “punk.” ---Her hair is dirty blonde as opposed to blonde. ---She’s shorter than the other chicks, with slightly smaller tits. ---She has a really bad attitude towards everyone else alive. ---She’s fucking hot if you’re into that sort of look. Thus Avrilmania began. 12 year old chicks love this girl, because they think she’s different and extreme and hardcore. Guys love her because she doesn’t dress like a normal pop singer. Me? I’m stuck in limbo. Let me explain to you… Her music sucks, but I’d damn sure fuck her. Still, the fact that she’s bitchy simply makes me want to fuck the bitch out of her despite the fact that such a task could take years. There’s something about her rage and her angst and her attitude problem that makes me want to adjust it by beating her in the face with my dick until she learns to comply and obey.

To answer the original question, I think people like her music because it's innocuous and catchy (at least the song I heard was). Let kids have their fun... Did none of you h8rs listen to lame music when you were in junior high? (I sure did - although it's probably the same stuff half of you would be proud of.) |

Bowie is God and most of todays (good) music wouldn't've happened without him! U2 and NIN alone have said Bowie's album 'Low' was one of their greatest influences, in fact Trent Reznor said he listened to it everyday he was writing and recording 'The Downward Spiral'.
To not know who Bowie is and to work in the music industry at the same time is downright blasphemous. Last edited by Mr.Deflok; 06-05-2003 at 02:42 AM.. |

Answer: You don't. You churn out a few poppy hits that make your record company some money then do a quick fade. We'll see her again in a few years when she poses nude for Playboy.

I think what I hate the most other than her crappy music.. is the fact that she says she's not commercial and she's doing her own thing. Bullshit!! She's as commercial as they come. If you're going to be commercial you could at least look like Brittney.. damn she's hot..can't sing but who wants to sing while you're having sex? Oh and it's been said in this thread already but if you haven't heard Avril's cover of Chop Suey go d/l it.. I almost killed myself.

Avril is a highly successful Canadian girl, due mostly to the genrerous wallets of the American public. I love her for it.
She has an average-pretty voice. She has some musical inclination, i.e. took a stab at writing some of her own songs, and she's got savvy marketeers behind her. It'll be mildly interesting to see if she goes the route of Alanis... |

eh, she perfectly fits that idea of the "bad pop princess" and her music is a palpable example of that pop punk crap that is so...um..popular right now. damn redundancy. and it's all just ridiculous because all of these new Blink wannabes sound exactly alike.

Once she ages, will you remember her, and if you do, will you give a shit?
