This article or section should be merged with Avril Lavigne. A specific song is a topic too limited for its own entry. DDerby

No it isn't. There's a ton you can write about these popular singles. Everyking 21:14, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Perhaps, but that would be a number of still-small articles that could be put on album pages or on the singer's main page with much more convenience. The article is only relevant as it relates to the singer or her album, and is appropriate on such a page. DDerby 04:52, 8 Apr 2005 (UTC)
I heavily disagree — for one, this page was just created yesterday (o_o), and two, it is being developed with time. I mean, just look at some of the other music artists pages we have done: Gwen Stefani's "Cool", Kelly Clarkson's "Behind These Hazel Eyes" and "Because of You", several of Mariah Carey's songs, along with Britney Spears' and Christina Aguilera's songs.
This page is not going to be merged with Avril's section. Plus, her page already requires much work. Winnermario 23:37, September 11, 2005 (UTC)

Does the Wikimedia foundation have enough money to form a lynch mob to go after people who spell boy "boi?" If so, I'd be interested in talking to someone about getting a grant. --The Amazing Superking 18:45, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Repeating lyrics verbatim in critique

Sounds lame and lazy.

A lot more too could be discussed on the vexed issues of unrequited love, or Lavigne's Kiplingesque take on how men develop character, or her assumption that punks will have better outcomes in life than ballet dancers.

its just about how the little wannabe rockers think they're better than people who do ballet, or work hard, or even dress "preppy", this song just says that anyone who isnt a "sk8erpunx" isnt gonna be succesful, and one day they'll turn on the tv and see the wannabe rockers are "rawking it up on on mtv" (singing some crap song they sort helped to write and occaisionally strumming a guitar), you know the channel that says rock is "in" right now! oh, and when the word "boy" is spelt as "boi" it actully means a lesbian who is very tomboyish, not a totally "hawt" boy in baggy clothes who can skate!
