Avril Lavigne-Girlfriend

    在〈Waves生活潮藝文誌〉2020冬季號中，朱介英總編輯希望我寫一篇Avril Lavigne「艾薇兒」的介紹，朱總編說二十一世紀前十年走紅的這位女歌星，在台灣有她的粉絲。下筆之前我先查了一下她的背景資料，結果產生了一個疑問---Avril是龐克嗎?

主流大唱片公司曾推過一種構想，以為用英國腔演唱吵雜高三度流行歌就是龐克，然後叫演唱者穿皮夾克、有拉鍊的長褲、黑T恤背後有粉紅骷髏和大腿骨的圖像…，說這就是龐克。

而早年有一些人在DIY punk「自己創作的龐克」與Commercial punk「商業龐克」二者之間做一個區分，多數人認為如果不是自己創作的龐克，那種所謂的龐克只是一種商品冠以龐克之名而以。

Avril她好友吉它手Evan Taubenfeld說Avril不是龐克，她也從不假裝她來自那個景象，Lavigne則表示她被貼上龐克標籤，好像她是一個憤怒的女孩，但她不是龐克圈內人，她認為她的音樂有受到龐克的影響，她愛聽一大堆龐克搖滾樂，她喜歡前衛音樂，主要是她唱的heavy pop-rock 重磅流行搖滾。

這篇文章最後以從龐克的認識介紹「艾薇兒」定稿，之後我會陸續在該專欄寫Post-punk、New wave、Hip hop、Rap..及其代表性歌者與樂團，也會在本部落格摘要介紹。

Avril Lvigne「艾薇兒」1984年9月27日出生於加拿大安大略省Belleville，有樂評人將她的歌路定位為Teen pop-rock「青少年流行搖滾」，她曾和Sum41合唱團主唱Deryck Whibley結過婚，離婚後再嫁Nicklelack合唱團的主唱Chad Kroeger，Avril 在Billboard Hot 100排行榜名次最好的歌是2007年冠軍曲Girlfriend 。
