Why do people say it's the artist who writes the songs? I work in the music industry myself and I can honestly say record labels don't like bad press so they secretly use this claim to make sure its the artist who gets the blame if songs are copied from earlier groups. Avril is innocent. But the Rubinoos aren't as innocent as they make out. Maybe Girlfriend sound's like Boyfriend but if you actually read up and listen to boyfriend it turns out: 'Boyfriend' by the Rubinoos copied 'Hey, hey, you, you get off of my cloud' by the Rolling Stones & 'Hey little girl I want to be your boyfriend' by the Ramones so really the Rubinoos should lay off or it will be them who get sued.

‘Boyfriend’ by the Rubinoos copied
‘Hey, hey, you, you get off of my cloud’ by the Rolling Stones &
‘Hey little girl I want to be your boyfriend’ by the Ramones

so really the Rubinoos should lay off or it will be them who get sued.

And while the lyrics are not exactly the same, they are very similar and the two melodies are almost identical--the chorus only varies by a couple of notes and a few syllables. I would say the Rubinoos have a VERY good case--regardless of whether or not Avrill's intentions were to steal the song. Check out this audio comparison of girlfriend over the top of the Rubinoos "I wanna be your boyfriend": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JEsokso8Bf8 And these are the correct lyrics from the Rubinoos Chorus: Hey, You, I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend Trying to say I wanna be your number one Hey, You, I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend Gonna make you love me before I'm done DEJA- she is NOT being sued by the Ramones– she is being sued by the Rubinoos–totally different band.
