Not that she doesn't suck, but...

Male Jim Treacher | Category: Music

Avril Lavigne is being sued by a band called the Rubinoos, who say her song "Girlfriend" is a ripoff of their 1979 song "I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend." Listen to it here. It does have the same "Hey! You!" thing, but other than that I don't hear it.

P.S. Come to think of it, doesn't "Get Off of My Cloud" have a similar "Hey! You!" thing? I do believe it does. Maybe the Stones will sue the Rubinoos now.

I'd be too embarrassed to publicly claim I wrote that crap.
