Knockin' On Heaven's Door (Bob Dylan cover)

Umm, nikkie, the Clash, pop?? I don't think so. They were punk rock with other influences, but not pop. Have you even heard a song by them?? And what's wrong with complaining about our generation of music?? There's not one good thing about it! The Clash rocks and you clearly have never listened to them if you think they're pop.

"Avril is like the best singer in the world". Umm, are you kidding me? Have you actually heard any other music besides Avril Lavigne?? Avril is probably one of the worst singers in the world to have obtained a record deal.

The person I agree with most is Cpt-Sensible. Avril is not punk, I don't even think she's pretending to be punk anymore. Punk music isn't based on the clothes the 'artist' (Avril Lavigne's stuff is not art, I don't even like to call it music). Avril is supposedly punk pop but, face it, she's just crappy, modern pop, trying to have a punk rocker image. Punk is bands like The Clash, The Sex Pistols, The Damned, The Ramones, etc.

A definition of punk music - music with deliberately offensive lyrics expressing anger and social alienation

Avril's lyrics aren't offensive or angry (rather, they're bitchy and stupid) because that would lower her sales, which is all modern pop 'artists' care about now. There's nothing wrong with listening to older music and also, pop was good at some point but it isn't now.
